The league also encourages the study oi our many varieties oi hawks, so that our valuable ones may not be destroyed. Many people imagine that the bigger the hawk the more destructive he is, but we know that we have only one large hawk that is in any wise vary des- tructive, that one being the Gos- hawk, which certainly is not com- mon, while the majority oi’ our large hawks are very beneficial indeed they are the farmer's iriends. The league has received quite a lot oi literature on the humane trap and ieel that this is a step in the right direction i! such a trap can be invented. The perfect trap is that either catches its victim all and unharmed, or else kills it instantaneously.
