JAMES S. KENNEDY, Grove City: 



Our song birds have no enemy as bad as the crow robbing 

 nests; our game is destroyed by mink, weasel and horned owl. 

 The greatest enemy of one of the best game birds in Amrica, 

 our woodcock, is the telephone and telegraph wires, as he is 

 a night flyer and a night feeder.

I know personally that the wildcat kills small deer, sheep

 kinds of birds known here.
