 HELP WANTED 



PHEASANT FARMING. 



Conservation of the fauna including 

 the game birds of the United States 

 requires the strict enforcement of laws 

 intended to control the shooting and 

 marketing of wild birds, and neces- 

 sarily limits both the period during 

 which they may be hunted and the 

 number available to supply the in- 

 creasing demands of those who desire 

 those table luxuries. 



This lack may be remedied by the 

 product of aviaries, preserves, and pri- 

 vate parks, devoted to rearing of do- 

 mesticated game, the marketing of 

 which under suitable safeguards is al- 

 ready permitted in several of the 

 states, indicating that American mar- 

 kets will open more and more to these 

 domesticated substitutes to the fast 

 disappearing wild game. 



In order to call the attention of the 

 farmers and the suburban population 

 to this subject the U. S. Department 

 of Agi-iculture issued some time ago 

 a bulletin on "Deer Farming in the 

 U. S." (Farmers' Bulletin No. 330), and 

 is about to issue the results of recent 

 investigations of Pheasant Raising in 

 the U. S. (Farmers' Bulletin No. 390). 



At present there is no lack of de- 

 mand for pheasants for various pur- 

 poses. Owners of private preserves 

 and state game oflacials pay profitable 

 prices for certain species for stocking 

 their covers, zoological and city parks 

 and owners of private aviaries are 

 ready purchasers of the rarer and more 

 beautiful species, and large numbers 

 of dead pheasants are annually im- 

 ported from Europe to be sold for sev- 

 eral times the price they bring in Euro- 

 pean countries. The demand for pheas- 

 ants is increasing. 



In response to numerous inquiries 

 for information on pheasant raising 

 the present bulletin was prepared by 

 Prof. Henry Oldys of the Biological 

 Survey, and contains a chapter on the 

 Diseases of Pheasants by Dr. George 

 Byron Morse of the Bureau of Animal 

 Industry. It presents a clear and con- 

 cise account of methods used by suc- 

 cessful pheasant raisers, and gives 

 practical information to those now en- 

 gaged in or contemplating entering 

 this comparatively new but rapidly 

 growing industry, in methods of propa- 

 gation, care of young pheasants, pro- 

 tection from enemies, housing, feeding, 

 and marketing, both in field and cov- 

 ert. It takes up in detail the question 

 of species suited to various purposes, 

 game and exhibition stock, how to ob-
