OUR WILD FOWL AND WADERS 



THE NEW YORK TIMES: 



"The subject is the development of a new crop — a flesh crop which has especial 

 timeliness in view of the general exhaustion of our food supply. Mr. Huntington dis- 

 cusses in the most practical manner the restoration of this crop of feathered game, 

 and from the standpoint both of the sportsman and the market gunner, wild ducks, 

 it seems, can be raised as easily and cheaply as domesticated ducks, and with 

 equally excellent financial results. The way to do this is described with estimates 

 ot cost and citation of experience abroad, where the deficiency of food supply has 

 led to the discovery and elaboration of many remedies to which we have not yet 

 been forced Mr. Huntington's book is illustrated with photographs, interesting 

 alike to naturalists and breeders.'^ 



WILLIAM BREWSTER 



"'Our Wild Fowl and Waders' is obviously an able, comprehensive and very 

 interesting treatise on a subject which has hitherto received but little attention from 

 writers, especialk in America, and concerning w'lich naturalists, as v^'ell as sports- 

 men, will, I am sure, be glad to be thus credibly and pleasingly informed." 



THE LOCKPORT UNION-SUN 1 



" Mr. Huntington has given to the American people an admirable treatise on the 

 practical methods of making these s[)lendid and desirable birds profitably plentiful. 

 Ponds, streams and waste lands which do not pay the meagre taxes upon them can 

 be utilized and be made to yield both handsome profits and good spoit. This 

 American authority on wild game teils the farmers and land owneis of tnis country 

 how to do it." 



CHARLES HALLOCK 



" The wild fowl book is valuable, clearsighted and scholastic. It is a direct 

 appeal to sportsmen of common sense and generous behavior, and they will readily 

 absorb its comprehensive pages and act accordingly - and live thereby " 



DR. R. W. SHUFELDT 



" I have enjoyed the treat in my reading of this book from frontispiece to finish 

 and I wa^er anybody else will enjoy it. . . . The author has placed cverv sports- 

 man, every haturalist and a great many other citizens of other callings squarely under 

 obligations to him. The book is a direct and logical argument setting forth the 

 means for the preservation in the future of our wild fowl and waders. . . . The 

 illustrations are judiciously selected, interesting and materially add to the vajue of 

 the volume." 



A. A. HILL 



" This is not only a readable book, but it is important in an economic sense, and 

 it will especially appeal to all who are interested in the conservation of wild life, and 

 especially our game birds." 



AUTOMOBILE DEALER AND REPAIRER 



" If the advice of Dwight W. Huntington, pioneer and apostle of the movement 

 in this country for a rational game protection and conservation, be acted upon, the 

 time is coming speedily when game will be as cheap as beef or mutton. At present, 

 after fifty years of legal protection, we have no game to amount to anything save in 

 the more remote sections. . . . The book is not only instructive in an economic 

 sense, showing how to make wild duck preserves safe and attractive, how to get 

 stock and eggs and the food required, but is delightful reading for all. The author 

 of ' Our Wild Fowl and Waders' is doing a great public service in his campaign 

 for more game." 



Our Wild Fowl and Waders will be sent to any address in the United States 

 or Canada with THE Game Breeder for one year upon receipt of $2-00.
