Dear Mr. Short: — 



In glancing through my Oologist, I 

 notice in regard to 'the 'English Spar- 

 row, it is reported as absent in Okla- 

 homa; but it is a great mistake, as 

 the English Sparrow is our most com- 

 mon bird and to my belief is the cause 

 of the scarcity of song birds. I have 

 know of times innumerable when the 

 Sparrow has driven birds away even 

 after they have laid their eggs. My 

 opinion is that the Sparrow should 

 be exterminated at all costs and make 

 room for the song birds.
