or later accept the idea of private or public game propagation is 
brought out very forcibly by Henry Richmond Coyle, in “Outdoor 
World and Recreation” for October, 1913, in the following words: 
“Without doubt or 
question we citizens of 
the United States are on 
the border line between 
two widely different 
eras of our growth. This 
is true in all phases of 
our social and business 
life, and not less of our 
life in the outdoor 
world. Little by little 
we have become used to 
smaller bags of game, 
little by little we have 
traveled farther and 
paid more for sport. In 
many futile ways, found- 
ed on hope and desire 
rather than on common 
sense, we have tried to 
arrest the hand which 
writes upon the wall. 
None the less, and we 
must admit it, all at- 
tempts to keep the old 
America have failed. We 
must pass not only from 
old days to new, but 
from old ways to new.’’ 
Smaller Game Bags Each Year 
The breeding of pheasants and other game birds in captivity for 
sale, under certain well defined regulations, either for eating or for 
breeding purposes, is just as legitimate as the breeding 
of any of our domestic birds or animals. Every game 
bird raised and sold in captivity helps to protect the 
state’s supply of wild game. 
The growing need of special provisions governing the sale of 
game birds and animals raised in captivity is receiving recognition
