DUCKS KILLED BY OIL WASTE Polluted Waters, It Is Declared, Have ‘ Destroyed Thousands of the Finest Game Birds. B. H. MERCK, Wholesale Distribntor I Gainesville, Georgia The destruction of thousands of game birds each season by their alight ing Tn oil-polluted waters has been be fore the attention of sportsoqen for some time, and many efforts have been made to remedy conditions in different sections of the country. A bulletin of the American Game Protective associa tion says that If the oil-burning trans atlantic and coastwise i steamers would' take tht same view of the matter as th« Northern Pacific railway we would have little cause to worry about the oil menace on tidal waters. For yenrs many birds have been hilled by the oil waste at a round house pump of the Northern Pacific system at Las Vegas, Nev. The United States bureau of-biologlcul survey took the matter up with the'company and has been advised that conditions will be remedied immediately. The, rail road company is installing an oil-re covery plant at considerable cost', which will not only eliminate the meii-. ace to water foyvl, but will prove a source of revenue to tltef company in utilising materials; that up to thisitirae have gone to waste. -.-Y-;-: A- : V I have money to lend on City Prop erty Five to Ten Year Terms.
