"The propagation of upland game birds is an industry of considerable magnitude in the United States, and there are within our borders some of the largest and most productive game farms in the world. Despite the large output already attained, the demand from state game departments and sportsmen's organizations for game birds and their eggs for restocking, from other propagators for additional breeding stock, and from fanciers and zoological gardens for exhibition specimens is so large that it is seldom necessary to dispose of birds for food purposes. Even when sale for food is necessitated (usually in the case of surplus males only), prices are good, as the demand is from the better class of restaurants, hotels, and clubs. Returns for birds used for the enhancement of sport are higher and as a rule entirely satisfactory to the producer."--Page ii.
