the following letter:
The Congress of the United
States passed a protective game
law last March It provides for
rules and regulations to be made
by the department of agriculture.
These rules and regulations have
been made and are effective on
and after October 1st, 1913.
By these regulations all geese,
ducks, swan, rails, crand, cur-
few, plover, sandpipers, snipes,
willet, woodcock, yellow legs,
pigeons and doves are classed as
migratory game birds, and the
closed season against killing
them are as i'o'lows:
Geese, ducks and brant, Janu-
ary 10th to October 1st each
year; rails, December 1st to
September 1st next following:
woodcock, Lanuary lstto^S'ovem-
;bor 1st; shore birds, including
black breasted and golden plover,
jack snipe, wilson snipe, greate1
and lesser yelllow legs, Decem-
ber 10th to September 1st next
following.
These regulations for killing
geese and ducks are not effec-
tive any time during the year
1913.
It in unlawful to kill any kind
of migratory birds afteh sunset
ano before sunrise all the time.
There is a closed season until
September 1st, 191 against kill-
ing the following migratory game
birds: Band-tailed pigeons, little
brown, sand and whooping crane
swans, curlew and all shore
birds, except the blackbrested

jack snipe, woodcock and the
greater and lesser yellow legs.
Under the Federal laws, it is
unlawful to kill migratory in-
sectivorous birds, and by this
law the following are designated
as such birds: Bobolink, catbirds
chickadees, cuckoos, fly catchers
grossbeaks, humming birds,

night hawks or bullbats, nut
hatches, orioles, robins, srikes,
swallows, titmice, thrushes, vi-
roes, warblers, waxwings, whip-
poorwills, woodpecker s and
wrens.
The Federal game laws do
not in any way relate to game
animals, and therefore, regula*
tions for k'lling and taking them
in Texas are wholly under State
laws.
While doves and wild pigeons
of all kinds are included in the
Federal law's list of migratory
game birds, there is no specific
closed or open season designated
for them except the band-tailed
pigeon, and the regulation for
killing doves and pigeons will be
wholly thofe of the State law.
