DENNY PHEASANTS
AND NATIVE QUAILS
Increasing In Rogue River Valley-
Many Killed by Coyotes, Wild
cat e.nd Skunks.
The lackaon oounty newspapers re
port that the Denny pheasants are
becoming quite uumerons In that
county. Owing to tbe very favorable
weather conditions this spring there
has been no loss among the young and
the increase will be larger than usual.
The Denny pheasant were intro
duced several years ago in the vicin
ity of Jacksonville by George Neubcr
and others of that town, they import
iug several pairs of the birds from the
Willamette Yalley. Tbe pheasants
have Increased aud spread until they
are now found In all parts of Kogue
Kiver Valley, though as yet they are
not aa plentiful in this section of
the Yalley aa up In Jackson county.
There are two apparent causes for
the scarcity of these best of all game
blids in Jrsephino county. One is
that there are no extnusivo farming
districts wber-' the pheasants can
find plenty of tit A and have protec
tion from wild animals and the other
is tho vast Dumber of eggs aud young
birds, aa well as many of the bens
while ou their nests, that are eaten
by covotcs. The extensive unsettled
hill districts of this county are infest
ed with bundr.-ds of coyotes and these
predatory anirnnals are adepts at find
ing pheasunts' nests and then eating
the eggs or the young birds. The
nests of the native qnail are also rob
bed by the coyotes to such an extent
that they do not Increase In numbers
except In large farming districts,
where the farmers, recognizing their
value ns insect destroyers, protect
them from both human and wild
animal hunters. Sknnks and wild
oats, of which there are great num
bers in this county, also do much to
keep down the increase of pheasants
and quails.
It ia quite probable that In the years
to come that Rogue Kiver Valley
will have vast numbers of Denny
pheasants and native quails for the
mild climate of this section Is favor
able to their breeding, for thorn are
no heavy storms in the sprins to
destroy the epgs and tho young. With
tho settling op of the Valley, the wild
animals will ho killed or driven out
and the great slaughter of game birds
that they make will cease.
Both tho Denny pheasants and the
quails are seiui-dnmestio birds and
take up their abode readily iu the
farming sections, being diawn there
by tho protection they secure from
wild animals and tho greater supply
of food that tho iusecta aud the fruit
and grain on the fauna atfurd them.
So while the settling up of the couuty
drives out the wild animals, it but
makes tbe conditions the 'lucre favor
aide to the increase of ginie birds and
snug birds, both of which by feeding
largely on insects and weed seeds aid
the firuiers iu their contest witli
those pests.
A Good Suggcition.

The raiua aud the heavy teaming
have about ruined the roads of this

Government Land to Ba Surveyed
The Surveyor General for Oregou
ia advertising for bids for f urveylng
fractional townships 86 south of range
S west, in the Mt. Baldy district, em.
bracing sections 38, 27, 84 and 85.
The larger part cf this township,
which now embraces tbe city of
Grants Pass, was surveyed more than
SO years ago, and the above enumerat
ed sections were then omitted from
the survey because of their rough aud
mountainous condition. Several
agricultural claimants have been
squatting on portions of this unaor-
yeyed land for many years and have
not been able to acquire title to their
holdings because of the uejlect of tbe
Government to extend the publio sur
veys. Some of the most valuable and
important mines in Southern Oregon
are located on unsnrveyed lands
aud yet, while it is true that tbe
owuers of these mines may obtain
patents by having surveys made at
their own expense, it would greatly
facilitate matters in the modus
operandi of acquiring titles to have
the surveys made by government. It
would seem to be the manifest duty of
the govrynment to adopt a more
liberal policy towardi the mining in
dustry by extending its surveys by
petitions over the mineral aa well as
the agricultural lands.
Under the rules and regulations of
tho land department, no public sur
veys will be made except upon the
petition of three or more bona fide
agricultural claimants. Jutt why
there should be any discrimination
upon the part of government be
tween two classes of equally deserv
ing citizens is uot clear. As the law
now stands a miner must stand the ex
penso himself of haviug his land
surveyed so he can acquire title to his
claim, while for tbe farmer and the
timber man the government will do
the surveying at its own expense.
