CHINESE PHEASANTS
BEING INTRODUCED
The game farm recently started in
Spokane county, Washington, already
has demonstrated the fact that it is
a success, and the probabilities that
it will not only become a permanent
institution, but will gradually be en
larged and the scope of its activities
broadened. The prisoners at Walla
Walla are aiding in its operation, and
iicsidcs giving the men an interest
ing and instructive occupation, makes
it possible to run the establishment
at a minimum of cost. Experiments
have proved that Chinese pheasants
can be propagated. A. G. Gray, coun
ty game commissioner, states that the
birds can lie raised as domestic fowls
and citizens are being asked to ex
periment with them. According to
Mr. Gray, one man already has had
80 eggs from a pair of pheasants. The
ning can lie raised in the same man
' i as ordinary chickens.
The cost of raising at the farm, ex
clusive of tlie first outlay for epuip
m nt and eggs has been reduced to be
tween 27 1-2 and 30 cents each, accord
------II
Ing to the figures for the first sum-1
mer’s operations of the experimental j
station. L. H. Darwin, state game war 1
ien, has written to the various county |
same commissioners, calling their at i
entlon to the low cost of raising these
birds, which, if purchased through or
linary channels, would cost $2.50 to
$3.00 each. Because of the success of
he farm so far he asks their co-oper j
itions in adding necessary equipment '
o the farm. There are now a total I
>f 1,800 young pheasants on hand al j
iValla Walla, the product of this sea
son's hatching. All of these birds,
save a few to be kept for further egg
<tock. will be distributed among the
counties that contributed to the instal
atlon of the farm.
