C That at least one game bird, either actual or po tential, is destroyed by mowing ma chines to every acre mowed through out the United states is borne out again by actual figures reported by R. M. Collett of Dayton, Ohio, ac cording to Information received by the American Game association. In ' mowing 30 acres of hay, 29 pheasant eggs were uncovered and. It Is thought, the mother bird on one nest was maimed so badly that she will die. "Was over in the country yester day and found that they had broken up three pheasant nests In the last 10 days in the hay field," Mr. Col lett" writes. "Two of the nests had 10 eggs each and one had nine, and the pheasants never came back to any of them. In fact, Robert mow ed right Into the hen pheasant on one of the nests and out her up very badly: possibly so badly hurt--, that she died, although they dldntf find her. This means that in 30, 1 acres of hay this year the mower actually destroyed 29 potential pheasants end maybe killed one mother. ,. "Chances are they cut over several quail nests and Just simply didn't find them. That also means thaV those quail didn't come back.; V The flushing bar is the answer t this appalling loss of wild life,' the American Game association points out. This bar, which, affixed to the mower, travels several feet ahead of the cutting knife, flushes the sitting bird and affords the operator the op portunity to lift the bar and leave an island of vegetation around the nest. It was reported last year that in mowing 123 acres of alfalfa on the James Fuller estate In Pennsylvania, 1500 pheasant eggs were saved by the use of the flushing bar. Word comes to us now that 1360 eggs have been saved In 310 acres. Mr. Krall, super- lntendent of the estate, states that in years put. before the flushing bar was used, they killed several hun dred rlngnecks every season, but that since the advent of this useful im plement the mortality has been re duced to a scant 2 or 30 birds. This bar Is coming into general use throughout the United States. France, too. Is adopting it. It Is esti mated that 167,000.000 ground-nesting birds, potential and actual, can be aaved each mowing season by the universal use of the bar in this coun try alone. WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.
