Correlations exist between the leafing of trees, the germination of seeds, and the temperature on the grass ; between the blossoming of flowers and the appearance of insects ; between the ripening of fruit, the appear- ance of insects, and the temperature in the sun ; between the appearance of insects and their larvze, the ripening of fruit and seeds, and the nesting and migration of birds—all of which are of great scientific interest, and of practical value to persons engaged in rural occupations, as is also a know- ledge of the first appearance of insect pests, with a view to their early destruction. To the botanist, entomologist, and ornithologist, and especially to the young naturalist, the Diary will serve as a guide to the localities and the seasons where and when the objects he wishes to study may be found ; and it will supply lists of objects to be looked for on each day of the year. It will also enable him to record the results of his observations in a systematic manner, and where they can be preserved for future reference. To all persons, whether living in town or country, the Diary will afford space for recording the results of their out-door occupations, or for such personal observations as show the relation of the human body to the other phenomena recorded. The relation of the growth of children to the sea- sons of the year, of diseases and epidemics to varying conditions of climate, and of periodic phenomena common to men and the lower animals, are of this kind, and are all deserving of careful study. A game and fishing list is introduced in this part of the Diary as being most: agreeable to the other entries, but any other set of observations may be substituted for it. The Diary, in conformity with books of a similar kind, commences with the first day of the year, but this is not the beginning of the biological year. Theoretically it ought to begin the day after the winter solstice (¢.2., December 22nd), but in our latitudes the climate lags behind the sun’s movements. The mean temperature for twenty years at Marl- borough shows that January is the coldest month, and the fourth week of that month the coldest week of the year ; and it is not till the middle of February that the sun’s influence is perceptible, and a slight and sustained increase of temperature takes place. The middle of February (St. Valen- tine’s day) may be accepted, therefore, as the beginning of the biological year, and the diary should be kept round the year from that time, the daily accumulated temperatures and rainfalls being corrected by deducting the values representing the day (on February 14th 90°8° and five inches respectively) from the subsequent totals. As I have explained elsewhere, the plants which blossom with us in January and beginning of February belong to the previous autumn, and should be studied in connection with it. Collective investigation—that is to say, the systematic observation of the same phenomena by a large number of persons living over a wide PREFACE. vii area—is now a recognized and valued form of scientific inquiry, as witness the numerous committees of the British Association for the Advancement of Science devoted to collecting observations of this kind. The subjects embraced by the Diary are especially adapted for collective investigation, both by. independent observers and the members of the numerous Natural History Societies and Field Clubs which exist throughout the country. The subjects for inquiry have, moreover, the further recommendation of being of local as well as general value, and observers in following them out will have the satisfaction of reaping results which are of immediate interest to themselves and their neighbours, as well as contributing to the general store of facts, and the advancement of natural science. With a view to extending the scope of the work and of securing the greater accuracy of its contents, it is proposed to issue the Diary annually, and to invite contributions of trustworthy observations to this end, all such contributions to be made to the Editor of “The Naturalist’s Diary,” to the care of the Publishers. I must here acknowledge my debt and record my thanks to the Rev. T. A. Preston, M.A., F.R.Met.Soc., the founder, and for sixteen years President of the Marlborough College Natural History Society, for the published reports, and for many manuscript tables and notes relative to a the meteorological and botanical parts of the work. I must also express my thanks to Mr. John T. Carrington, F.L.S., for revising the index of ’ Lepidoptera and bringing it into conformity with the nomenclature a present in use in this country and on the Continent. Cc. R. LONDON, Yanuary ist, 1886. INTRODUCTION. THE study of Natural History has altered much both in character and methods in recent years. Botany and the other branches of natural science no longer consist of the mere collecting, preserving, classifying, and naming—the indexing, so to speak—of natural objects; but in observing the development, life-history, and periodical phenomena of such objects, their modifications under natural and artificial conditions, and the relations they bear to each other and to the pleasures and wants of mankind. The analytical methods of studying natural history are giving place to the synthetical, and, instead of pulling plants in pieces, and anatomizing animals to ascertain their minute physical differences, attention is being directed to their relationship to each other, and to the forces and agencies by which living things are developed, built up, pre- served, and reproduced. Of the many attractions of rural life—and, to a certain extent, of urban and suburban life also—none are more interesting and instructive, nor more frequently the subject of observation and record, than the periodic phenomena associated with plants and animals; and to persons engaged in rural occupations, none are of greater importance, nor the source of so much anxiety. The germination of seeds, the leafing, blossoming, ripening of fruit and seeds, and the change and fall of the leaves of plants and trees; the migration, song, and nesting of birds; the appear- ance of insects and their larvee; the habits and instincts of animals, &c., are all phenomena of this kind; and, being dependent on seasonal and’ meteorological conditions, are largely correlated or dependent on each other, and, to be properly understood, must be studied together. It is to promote the study of rural biology on this broad basis that I have com- piled the Diary. I have adopted the title of “ Naturalist’s Diary ” as one which is quite familiar to students of natural history, but the book is much more thana mere diary. It is a serious attempt on a large scale to. show the correlation or interdependence of a wide range of natural phe- nomena, on a plan which has not hitherto been attempted. Observations of the kind which are embodied in the pages of the Diary, and which x INTRODUCTION. are known to meteorologists and botanists as phenological observations, have been made for many years past in this country and on the Con- tinent for the purpose of distinguishing local climatic conditions, and the Royal Meteorological Society has a standing committee which is engaged in collecting and discussing observations of this description. The scientific value of the Diary depends on the care with which the observations have been made, and on the value which is to be attached to averages of observations extending over a period of twenty years. Considerable experience in dealing with averages of observations of a similar kind made at Marlborough and elsewhere, has given me the fullest confidence in this method of arriving at the most probable results when dealing with such complicated phenomena as are here dealt with, and the plan of placing the phenomena side by side will be the best test of their trustworthiness, and afford facilities for eliminating, by further observations, any errors which may exist. The meteorological observa- tions are, with very few exceptions, the results of twenty years,’ those of plants of not less than seventeen years’, observation, while those referring to birds and insects vary in number, and also in the years in which the observations were made. To add variety, and form centres for further observations, a few entries are given from Gilbert White’s Diary* and Mr. C. Whitehead’s Reports.” To persons engaged in country occupations, whether for profit or pleasure, a systematic study of the phases of vegetable and animal life is of the greatest interest and importance, and the Diary has been arranged with a view to such a form of study. The character of soils as well as climates is best judged by their vegetable products, and the periods at which grasses, plants, and trees blossom and attain maturity. Not only has each district, but each farm, and often each field or garden, a character of its own; and it is only by observing, recording, and com- paring with some ascertained standard, the specific products of each locality, that their peculiarities can be determined and turned to profitable account. It is well known, for instance, that one field will grow clover, and another will not ; that one pasture will fatten sheep quickly, while another will do so slowly; and a good deal of what is called “ practical farming” consists in remembering facts of this kind and taking advantage of them; or, as is too often the case, in ignoring or forgetting them, to the certain disappointment and loss of the farmer. Peculiarities of this kind, although remotely due to the soil and climate, are really peculiarities of vegetation, and should be studied and recorded in a systematic manner to be properly understood and utilized. * White's ‘Natural History of Selborne.” These entries are distinguished by the letters (G. W.). The dates are about a week earlier than at Marlborough. 2** Reports on Insects Injurious to Hop and Corn Crops,” &c., made to the Agri- cultural Department of the Privy Council. Nos.

INTRODUCTION. xi: Again, the ravages of insects and their larvee are of the most serious import to all persons interested in the cultivation of the soil, whether it be farming, gardening, or forestry ; and it is only by observing and recording the earliest time of the appearance of such insects that pre- ventive measures can be adopted with any prospect of success, The Diary contains many records of this kind, and I regret that it does not contain many more. Miss Ormerod, whose labours in this field of | inquiry are well known, informs me that no trustworthy results as to the © average time of the first appearances of insect pests have yet been | obtained; and I hope, therefore, that the Diary will afford facilities for collecting observations relating to this subject in all parts of the country, from which useful results may be obtained. Apart from the study of climate and the economic productions of the soil, a very large number of persons are close observers of nature from the intellectual pleasure and culture it affords. There are probably few country-bred persons of either sex who have not at some period of their lives kept a naturalist’s diary, in one form or another, and many such diaries are at present in existence which contain interesting and valuable records, but which are lost to science from the absence of a trustworthy standard with which to compare and correlate them. One of the objects of the Diary is to furnish a standard of this kind, and it is especially suitable for the purpose from the wide range of subjects it embraces, and also from the fact. that the climate and physical sur- roundings of Marlborough are those of the average of the inland and cultivated parts of our Islands. Mr. Preston and his numerous co- labourers have directed their attention chiefly to the first blossoming of plants, the first appearance of butterflies and moths, and the migration and nesting of birds, which has necessarily crowded the data into the spring and summer months, and left the pages of the autumn and winter months comparatively empty. But the student of climate, especially if he consider it from a sanitary point of view, and the cultivation of the soil, will find ample materials for insertion in the blank pages. Observa- tions are required on the ripening of fruits, seeds, and roots, and their time of harvesting; on the survival and the second blossoming of plants and trees at unusual seasons, and on the change and fall of the leaf as indicating the ripening of buds and the prospect of future fruit crops.’ Further observations are also required on the casual appearance of insects, the migration of birds in winter, and the hibernation and other , phenomena of animal life, &c. Many persons will probably not have either the time ee the inclination to devote their attention to all the subjects of inquiry embraced in the Diary; but the specialist who confines his labours to one or two sections cannot fail to be interested in the correlative phenomena, and thus gain a wider view of the significance of his favourite branch of study. The Diary will be useful in exciting an interest in natural science xii INTRODUCTION. among the young, as it is a kind of Nature’s “ Birth-day Book,” in which the birth-days, so to speak, of flowers, butterflies, and birds, are recorded, and with which children may compare their own birth-days and those of their friends. ‘ For natural history classes in schools it will supply lists of objects to be sought for on country walks and excursions on each day of the year, and it will also furnish special and appropriate subjects for teachers and lecturers to explain at the proper seasons. To make the study of natural history easy and pleasant to the young, and to persons who do not wish to study it systematically, but who, never- theless, may be trustworthy observers, the English names, and in many instances the provincial names of plants, insects, birds, and animals are given, as are also the natural habitats of plants, the situations in which insects are usually found, the plants on which their larve feed, and the’ most common position of the nests of birds... The English names of most of our wild plants are well established, and they are therefore included with the generic names in the general index, while the English names only of fishes, reptiles, birds, and animals, are given. Among entomolo- gists, and especially among those who make a special study of butterflies and moths, little attention is given to either the English or the generic names, and the specific names are chiefly employed ; but in a work like this it would be impossible to give an index of specific names of about two thousand insects, and the generic names alone are included in the general index, references, however, being given to the pages of the “Entomologist ” synonymic list of British Lepidoptera where the specific names are to be found, as well as to.the pages of the Diary. PERIODICITY IN NATURAL PHENOMENA. Weare accustomed to divide the year into four seasons, spring, summer, autumn, and winter, but in our temperate regions Nature divides it into three, and she shows a disposition to contract the three to two as we proceed towards the arctic regions on the one hand, and to the tropics on the other. In the temperate and arctic regions these natural seasons are chiefly the result of variations in the heat and light of the sun’s rays, while in the tropics moisture plays the principal part ; hence we have in the former warm and cold seasons, and in the latter wet and dry seasons. The three seasons of organic objects are: (1) The season of growth, or its correlative reproduction ; (2) The season of maturation (ze. the ripen- ing of fruits, seeds, and buds of vegetables, and the consolidation and fattening of animals); and (3) The season of rest or equilibrium of the 1 For much of this information I am indebted to Hayward’s ‘‘ Botanist’s Pocket- book” (Bell and Sons) ; Miller's ‘‘ Dictionary of English Names of Plants" (Murray) ; Merrin’s ‘' Lepidopterist’s Calendar" (Marsden, Gloucester) ; and Stephens's ‘ List of British Lepidoptera in the British Museum " (1850). INTRODUCTION. xii two former conditions (z.e. the defoliation of trees, and, in extreme cases, hibernation of animals). These natural seasons are most distinctly marked the lower we go in the organic scale, but they are more or less distinguishable throughout the vegetable and animal kingdoms. In our temperate climate the season of growth or reproduction is in the spring and early summer ; that of maturation is in the late summer and autumn ; and that of rest in the winter months. The range of the seasons varies with different species of plants, and they are further modified by various natural and artificial conditions. Cultivation, with its numerous appliances for modifying the physical conditions of temperature, moisture, and soil, tends to a hastening or shortening of the earlier seasons—hence cultivated plants generally blossom and fruit earlier than wild ones of the same species ; and some meteorological conditions, such as high temperatures and droughts—if they do not suspend vegetation altogether—shorten the period of growth and hasten that of maturation, and sometimes give rise to the exceptional phenomena of the second leafing and blossoming of plants and trees in the same year. The order of the seasons differs with the relative length of the day and night. Growth in length or bulk of vegetables takes place in al dark, while maturation of structures and juices takes place in the light ; hence the plants of arctic and alpine regions are dwarfed by the short, cold nights, and hastily matured (as shown by a profusion of blossoms) by the long days of these regions, and there are few spring flowers because the seasons pass quickly from winter to summer. In the tropics, on the other hand, where the days and nights are of nearly equal length and the temperature is always favourable, growth is almost continuous (hence an excess of leaves over flowers), and is interrupted only by lack of moisture. Much of the irregularity in the blossoming of plants and trees in our climate is no doubt due to the introduction, by what is called acclimatiza- tion, of numerous plants belonging to other latitudes. The early blos- soming plants, such as the winter aconite, snowdrop, and spring crocis| belong originally to warm, temperate climates, where drought is a more powerful agent in modifying vegetation than it is in our cold and moist climate—their bulbous roots being a provision against drought rather than low temperatures—and their blossoming corresponds, therefore, with the wet seasons of their native regions rather than the beginning of the warm season in our own. In like manner the cultivated trees which blossom early with us, and at the risk of being destroyed by our late frosts, such as the apricot and the peach, are natives of warmer latitudes which persist in the habit of blossoming as near to the time they would blossom in their native climates as ours will permit. The season of maturation is most distinctly displayed by the ripening of fruits and seeds, but it equally applies to the ripening of the buds, roots, and tubers of perennial trees and plants which cast their leaves or die down. The season of rest is best seen in our forest trees which shed xiv INTRODUCTION. their leaves in the autumn and appear to remain dormant during the winter. This season of rest cannot, however, be a condition of absolute stagnation, as it is obviously necessary to the healthy survival, and to the early start in growth of the tree in the spring, and probably some physio- logical or chemical action goes on which we cannot recognize. Otherwise it is difficult to understand the quick response, and often the impatience of all checks, so to speak, which vegetation shows on the first slight increase of temperature in the spring, while remaining insensible to much higher degrees of temperature in the autumn. It is true that a few trees do occasionally make mistakes of this kind, but it is only after an exces- sively hot and dry summer, when a period of enforced rest has occurred in a manner similar to that which takes place in the tropics. This condition of rest in vegetables (rather than that commonly called “sleep” in some plants) is probably remotely correlated with sleep in the higher organisms, although that condition is usually associated with the existence of a nervous system. The freshness and joyousness of spring has much in common with the condition of body and mind which results from refreshing sleep, and it would seem to be due to some deeper cause than the mere increase in light and heat from the sun’s rays on his return northwards. The season of rest in the arctic regions is much longer, and it emerges more quickly into the period of greatest activity than in ours, while in the tropics it is shorter and is not very clearly differentiated from the period of mere growth. The threefold division of the seasons is distinguished among insects by the three stages of their life-history—the perfect insect, the caterpillar, and the chrysalis. Some insects in the perfect form are said to hibernate during the winter, but this is probably only a condition of the survival of a few individuals under favourable conditions of shelter and warmth, as the chrysalis state is the correlative of hibernation in animals. Among birds we find the threefold seasons distinguished by the nesting, matura- tion, by fattening of both young and parent birds, and rest by the migration, or the survival on a limited diet during the winter. A similar order exists among animals, but the phases are less regular on account of the more varied conditions under which they live. With animals there is a season of reproduction and growing, and a season of fattening, while the season of rest is one of equipoise between the other two, which sometimes proceeds to a state of suspension of all active movements except respiration in hibernation, the animals subject to this condition surviving by the consumption of the fat accumulated during the preced- ing season. Even in man something similar to the periodic phenomena discoverable in the lower animals exist. They are obscured by the long period over which growth extends; but if children be studied, who are more closely related to the lower forms than adults, periods of growth, of fattening, and of equipose are distinguishable. Some observations made on prisoners by Dr. W. R. Miller show that an increase of weight takes INTRODUCTION. xv place between April and August, and a loss of weight from September to March, the loss of weight corresponding with a greater excretion of car- bonic acid, from the destruction of fat in the winter months. While this work was passing through the press, some observations made by the Rev. M. Hansen, of Copenhagen, have been published which show that three distinct seasons of growth in stature, increase in weight, and of equipose, occur in children ; the season of growth being from April to August, of increase in weight from August to December, and these two kinds of activity are followed by a period of rest extending from December to April. Mr. Hansen also found that a continued increase of temperature at any time of the year favoured an increase in the weight of the body. CLIMATE. For determining the climate of a country, a district, or a health resort, no method is so interesting and satisfactory, and at the same time so easily carried out, as recording the condition of vegetation at different seasons of the year. Meteorological observations made by means of in- struments require an amount of skill, time, and perseverance which many persons do not possess, and at best such observations are open to many sources of error from the liability of the instruments to get out of order, and from other causes ; and they are, to the majority of persons, singu- larly wanting in passing interest. The interpretation, moreover, of such observations is often difficult and unsatisfactory, as differences of climate are due to subtle combinations of sunshine, rain, wind, and soil, which no instruments can record nor figures represent, and which are only truly declared by the varying conditions of vegetation, and remotely by the insects which feed. on it, and by birds and animals which feed on both and are themselves influenced by such conditions. A familiar acquaintance with many of the winter health resorts of Europe, and a traveller’s acquaintance with many other countries and climates, has impressed me with the superiority of the biological over the physical methods of distinguishing climates ; and its advantages are fully recognized by the public, as is evident from the frequent correspondence in the press relative to the early or late blossoming of plants, the times of the appearance of insects, and of migratory birds, in different parts of the country. On the other hand, writers on climatology do not sufficiently recognize its importance,’ but trust too implicitly to mere averages of | t This remark does not apply to Dr. H. Bennet, the author of ‘‘ Winter and Spring in the Mediterranean.” Writing to me on this subject Dr. Bennet says: ‘‘1 am glad to find that you agree with me in attributing special value to botanical phenomena in appreciating meteorological conditions and climate. In my Mediterranean travels I found it an infallible guide. An hour's observation gave the key.” xvi INTRODUCTION. meteorological data, forgetting that similar averages or means may result from very different ranges of climatic conditions. It is the extremes of temperature, moisture, &c., which determine the character of the vegeta- tion of a locality or district, and these are also the conditions which de- termine the character of a health resort. Plants and trees, moreover, may be looked on as natural registering “‘weather-glasses” of different degress of sensibility. Some botanists (Boussingault, Alph. de Candolle, Ch. Martins, De Gasparin, Harvé Mangon, Hoffmann) assert that what may be termed the zero, or sta- tionary condition of vegetation, is at 6° C. (about 42° F.), and that the various phases of plant-life depend on the accumulated heat to which they are exposed; and many observations and calculations have been made with the object of testing the truth of this theory, especially on plants which are of economic importance.* In the present contribution to the subject I have dwelt with the meteorological and phenological ob- servations of twenty years as if they had been made in only one year, and by the use of averages I have eliminated, as far as possible, any errors of observation of either an instrumental or a biological kind.?, In this way the temperature equivalent of upwards of three hundred native British plants has been determined, as has also, in a less definite way, their moisture equivalent. The reverse of this is alsotrue. The blossoming of the various plants indicate the existence of their temperature and moisture equivalents—facts of extreme interest and importance to farmers and gardeners as well as meteorologists, which would be greatly enhanced in value if we possessed a similar set of observations on the germination of seeds and the ripening of fruits and seeds.3 The neighbourhood of Marlborough, where the observations entered in the Diary were made, very nearly represents the average climatic con- ditions of the cultivated parts of England, and it is therefore suitable as a standard with which to compare local variations.

HoFFMANN’S CHART AND SCHEME FOR PHENOLOGICAL OBSERVATIONS. The monograph from which the Chart (frontispiece) is taken is designed, the author tells us, “to present a general résumé of the numerical results of the most important and useful observations hitherto made at all the stations in Europe (about two thousand in number, nearly two hundred XX INTRODUCTION. of which are in the British Isles) for comparison or further use in any other way by the reader ;” and the “ Scheme” is the one which he thinks, after forty years’ study of the subject, is the most suitable for general adoption. The Chart is constructed from the blossoming of the spring flowers included in the Scheme, an alphabetical list of the time of flower- ing of which at the various stations is given in Dr. Hoffman’s pamphlet. The “ Scheme” is arranged according to the calendar, and I have added to the table, for the purpose of comparison, the corresponding observa- tions made at Marlborough, and at Swaffham in Norfolk. Dr. Hoff- ‘mann’s Scheme comprises fewer plants, but a greater variety of vegetation- phases, than that of the Phenological Committee, and perhaps on this account will be more acceptable to many persons. The plants it em- braces, moreover, are, with the exception of the Tartarian honeysuckle, the quince, and the vine (growing out of doors), common and familiar objects to almost everybody in this country, as well as on the Continent ; and observations made on them are therefore less liable to error, than when made on plants which demand some botanical knowledge for their identification. The difficulty and uncertainty on this head is much felt by the Phenological Committee, and to avoid mistakes observers are required to furnish specimens of the plants with their reports. Dr. Hoff- mann’s list of plants and trees is introduced in the pages of the Diary in brackets for the use of those persons who may prefer his limited scheme to the more comprehensive one of the Committee, The following is Dr. Hoffmann’s summary of the most important results of his work :-— 1, Since the mean temperature (for a week or month) represents only a fragment of the temperature of the year, while a vegetation-phase must include also the effect of the temperature of the preceding months from the commencement of the period of vegetation, no coincidence between the two can be expected ; and the less so since the mean temperatures are observed in the shade, while our plants grow in sunshine.* 2. The retardation towards the Worth of the blossoming of spring- hlowering plants is at once perceptible and easily understood. Summer- “ flowering plants are retarded much less, since a compensation is afforded by the greater length of the day as you go northwards. The value of this fact for the possibility of the development of fruit is evident. 3. Advancing from the West towards the East, in the same latitude (e.g. Giessen, about 50°) and the same altitude, the blossoming and opening of 1 The accumulated temperature in the sun can be easily calculated from the data given in the Diary, but the difficulties of ascertaining the sun temperature under all the conditions of plant-life are so numerous that little confidence can be placed in this method, and it has not been accepted, notwithstanding Dr, Hoffmann's persistent advocacy of it. INTRODUCTION. xxi the leaves of spring-flowering plants, especially Prunus spinosa, appear to be retarded. (Decreasing influence of the riparian climate with its mild winter.) The sinking of the curve of the blossoming of spring-flowering plants towards the East is indicated on the chart by the dotted isophanal dines on the German Ocean. 4. The dlossoming of summer-flowering plants is, on the contrary, later . in the West, earlier in the East towards Giessen. (Warmer continental summer). 5. In the central mountain-region the blossoming of spring-flowers is retarded (later melting of the snow) ; while with summer-flowering plants ; it is nearly the same—as, ¢.g., in the Alps as compared with Gzessen :-— Secale, Solidago virgaurea (strong insolation from the clearness of the air and favourable exposure) ; while the ripening of fruit is usually retarded in proportion to the absolute altitude. (Earlier commencement of the autumn with falling temperature.) 6. The ripening of fruits is earlier at Prague and Cracow than in Giessen, being delayed as you advance westwards (continental summer). 7. The zzterval between blossoming and ripening of fruit is well known to be shorter in the far Worth than in Central Europe. This is true for all those plants for which the increase of warmth from the longer day affords sufficient compensation, Where this is not the case, the fruits do not regularly ripen. (In Giessen the bilberry, Vaccinium Myrttllus, tipens in July ; in Icelandin September. Inthe “ Tundress” of Northern Siberia, the species of Vaccinzum do not usually ripen their fruits, although widely dispersed by birds.) 8. The same interval is, in the #ountain-region of Central Europe, in the case of .4sculus, shortest north of the Alps above 500 m., longer in the higher mountains at 600 m. or more. With Seca/e the length of time does not increase simply with the height ; a secondary influence, that of exposure, which changes with the locality, has a powerful effect. 9. The colouring of the leaves appear to commence earlier in the West (south of England) than at Giessen. 10.

Coarse His hiscccsandussvetaticsanecs vesnvacdeaens The Wild Birds Protection Acts provide a close season for all birds that are not included under the head of ‘“‘game.” The general close season is between the Ist day of March and the 1st day of August, but exceptions are made in different counties by authority of the Home Secretary. The close season has been altered in Lincolnshire, and also in the county of Huntingdon, the liberty of Peterborough, and the Isle of Ely—from March 15 to August 31 (both inclusive); in Essex till March 15 as regards curlew, dunbird, godwit, oxbird, snipe, widgeon, wild goose, and woodcock ; and in Northumberland the close season is between March 1 and August II. In that part of Devonshire which is included within the limits of the Exe Fishery District, the operation of the Act is suspended as far as cormorants or shags are concerned ; so that these birds may be killed throughout the close season, owing to their destructiveness to the salmon fisheries. 61-304, Mo.

THE right to the game, rabbits, woodcocks, snipes, &c., upon any land, belongs to the tenant or occupier of the soil, unless he has made an agreement by which he foregoes that right. But if, after so doing, he breaks his agreement, either by killing the game himself, or by giving permission, to others to do so, lie becomes liable to a fine of 2/., and 1/. additional for each head of game killed ; and any permission which he has given will not shield from prosecution the person who has acted under it. "9, Every occupier of land (whether he be owner or tenant) has the tight to kill hares and rabbits on the land in his occupation, notwithstanding that the shooting may be- reserved or let to any other person; and the occupier cannot divest himself of this concurrent right, even though he wishes to let the shooting in its entirety, for any agreement to do so is rendered void by the terms of the Act. “3, The license or certificate to kill game differs in cost according to the length of time for which it is taken out. Thus, if taken out on or after the rst of August, to expire on the 3xst of July of the following year, the cost of the certificate, which is _ Panted on ved paper, is 3/. ; if taken out as above, but to expire on the 31st of October, ' the cost will be 2/., and the certificate g7eez ; if taken out on or after the rst of Novem- ae and to expire on the 31st of July, the certificate will be yellow, and the cost also 2i, A game license for fourteen days costs 1/., and the colour is white. 4. The penalty for trespass in the day time (which begins one hour. before sunrise and ends one hour after sunset) in pursuit of game, rabbits, &c., is 22. and costs. Any person who shall take or destroy game or rabbits by night (which begins one hour after sunset and ends one hour before sunrise) is liable to three months’ imprisonment for the first offence, and six months for the second, and to find sureties for twelve months in the first case, and two years in the next ; andif he offends a third time he becomes liable to be sentenced to penal servitude. : | Bor Note on WILD BIRDS PROTECTION ACTS 1880, 1881, see page 60 (Afarch rst).
