toward us at a lively gait. Two rifles 
cracked simultaneously, and Bruin rolled 
over with a broken back. He was ours, 
but it required three more bullets to 
finish him. 
The rush that he had made in our di- 
rection might have been considered by 
some to be intentional, but I doubt if the 
animal saw us until after he was so badly 
wounded that he was unable to reach us. 
We walked up to him in great glee and 
examined his beautiful silvery coat. He 
was a fine four-year-old bear, not very 
large, but he represented a stage of de- 
velopment and color phase that made him 
especially desirable as a specimen. His 
fur looked just like that of a light-colored 
grizzly.

HUNTING SONG 
IN OHIO

may permit, he will be interested in ex- 
terminating the predacious hawk and the 
prowling cat. Such legislation, I firmly 
believe, will give more quail to the 
farmer and restore hunting privileges to 
the sportsman, and it will surely widen 
the circle of the farmer’s friends. 
Furthermore, I am of opinion that such 
legislation is not subject to any objec- 
tion upon the ground of public policy, or 
otherwise. Some decisions, in stating the 
law of property respecting game, are to 
the effect that game is not the subject of 
private ownership, except in so far as 
the people may elect to make it so. Every 
state has a law prohibiting trespassing 
upon farms ; and every state has an open 
season for certain game. The effect of 
such enactments, taken together, is ex- 
pressed by the Ohio Supreme Court to 
“confer upon the owner of lands, within 
this state, the exclusive right to hunt and 
kill game upon his own premises.” Thus, 
there is already, in degree, private own- 
ership of game. The only hope for the 
Ohio sportsman is through co-operation 
with the landowner. Quail are the farm- 
er’s friends and the farmer should pre- 
serve and protect them. At the same 
time, he should not forget that the toll 
taken by winte: may as well be taken by 
the sportman. The farmer knows, only 
too well, the disistrous effects of the 
rigors of winter upon bobwhite; and he 
should be reasonable with his friends. 
The surrender by the state of the princi- 
ple that quail are common property; the 
creation of game refuges ; and the estab- 
lishment of free shooting grounds will, 
I .'irmly belie’/e, not only stay their fur- 
ther reduction n numbers; but will also 
insure the spo. tsman reasonable shooting 
privileges. “What is everybody’s busi- 
ness is nobody’s business,” is a truism; 
as is likewise, “what *s every man’s prop- 
erty is no man’s property.” 
■■ 
I T may he contended that quail are 
within tU‘ ’egal classification of ferae 
naturae, whicii is to say, they are of a 
wild nature, and therefore the individual 
cannot have absolute property in them; 
for they wander at will from the lands of 
one owner to the lands of another. This, 
however, is only true in a limited sense.
