The fear is often ex-pressed that the quail disease, started from imported birdsor from those having the disease on game-preserves, mightspread among the wild native quails. Of this I do not be-lieve there is any likelihood. That the disease spreadsamong birds in captivity is amply proven by the Massachu-setts experiments. I had a case at Storrs, Connecticut, where^t invaded from one pen to another and swept off every mem-ber of a brood, parents as well as young, of what appearedto be absolutely healthy and vigorous birds.
