TO PROTECT RIPE RI ROS Oovernment Will Not Allow Them To Re Killed tiff. Washington, D. C., June 1.- Notices have been isued by Hie. U. S. Depart ment of agriculture calling attention to a proposed amendment In the fed eral regulations for the protection of migratory, insectiveorous birds. Un der the new rule reed or rice birds can be rhot in September and Octo ber in the states of New Jersey, Penn sylvania and Delaware, Maryland, the District Of Columbia. Virginia und South Carolina. The law requires three months' notice of this ? hang ? If it is decided to adopt it. the rule will be officially promulgated at the end of that time and will go into effect on September 1, I al 4. The effect ol' this change will bo lo extend to sport; nu ti in Ni >v Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware tho priv ilege of shooting the birds during a period of two months. This they can now do in Maryland, the District of Columbia, Virginia UMI South Caro lina. As the seas-in ia so short it is not believed that thc bird? will suf fer appreciably in numbera. In the late summer and ?arly fall, tliey migrate to thc far south where they are known as reed or rice birds. T'hey ure regarded in the stator where they can now bo shot as offering good sport. Washington, June 1.-The United States department of commerce bas just issued a comprehensive report on "South America as an expon, field" which is of special Interest at this time in connection with the work be ing done, hy the Southern Hallway Company and the companies associat ed with it in developing trade with South America by way of the South ern ports served by their lines. This report contains some Interest ing information as ?o the methods pursued by the United Kingdom and Germany which are the two great competitors of United States in sup plying South American markets, and President Harrison of the Southern Railway Company today called atten tion to the following extract from it ar containing valuable suggestions for southern manufacturers and mer chants who are interested in the trade opportunities of South America: "The Germans owe a great deal to their banks, which lend active assist ance to schemes of trade promotions; and the facility with which shipments are financed and credits handled through them has been noted as one of the greatest German assets in build ing up their South American trade. The' most important influence for ef fecting this result, however, has been Ute thorough manner in which the Germans have investigated the spe cial features of each particular mar ket and the pains they have taken to ree that their goods fitted in with what the people desired. It is the estab lished custom for young men from Germany who intend to engage in the export trade to spend some years in South America as a part of their com mercial education, learning the lan guage and studying the habits of the people. Through them a first-hand and detailed knowledge of the trade is acquired and the information gained ia closely followed. There are also in Germany many private and semi official associations devoted especially to the furtherance of the German ex port trade, and these not only dissem inate information aa to the kind ot j particular , articles required by the , trade but often rubBldize agents to j South America and other foreign ! fieidr who make ' a study of market (conditions. The co-operation of all (German influences in South America .-toward the one object of furthering trade has often been remarked, and lit has resulted in the present high ?commercial position of the country in tall parts of tho continent. The pro l motion of the United States trade In South America does not necessarily depend on following either English or German methods, but? as in the case of these countries, both the invest ment of American capital and the clos er attention to details on the part ot American exporters have been Import ant factors In the trade increase-jf the last few years."
