Preserving Bird Life.

The New York State Legislature has made ii determined effort to remove one temptation toward the destruction of bird life, the use of birds for nilllinery decor- ation. A bill has been passed marking it- ii misdemeanor to sell or possess for sale the pluiunge of wild birds or songsters. No birds other than those for which there is an open season can now be used

It is a characteristic of our neighbors that when they legislate they are generally in earnest, not merely eager to appease the importunities of some troublesome agita- tors. It looks as it the New York Legisla- ture had determined to head oil' one of t-hs greatest enemies, if not the greatest enemy, to bird life. There are other en-

The foliage: has been unusually late, and many nests have been built in exposed places.\The us- ual care with ,which a bird’s domestic arrangements are hid from pryingfeyes -has been impossible, and exposed nests are temptiugly displayed. This will make the work of the juvenile destroy- ers easier and more complete. A great improvement has been effected in this matter by Bands of Mercy___and other humane organizations, in making boys aware of the pain and cruelty they in- flict on the lower orders of creation-
