in fine shape; all full grown; and that 

 he has a splendid pond for rearing wild 

 fowl. He expects to have plenty of 

 black duck eggs and black ducks. We 

 hope he will and we are sure they will 

 command excellent prices since the black 

 ducks have been found to be difficult 

 birds to handle and some breeders com- 

 plain that they do not get any eggs from 

 them. 



The experiments with teal breeding at 



Scarboro Beach also will be interesting 

 and if a race of blue-winged or green- 

 winged teal that will lay eggs under con- 

 trol can be developed the birds and 

 their eggs will be very profitable. There 

 is no finer duck for the table than the 

 teal and sportsmen know these ducks 

 are among the fastest birds they shoot. 

 Fortunately the Maine law contains 

 much common sense, which is lacking in 

 the New York Statute. It is legal in 



rearing field alter young pheasants have been caught 

 each coop. Note trapping coop set to pick up stray biids
