First of all, Oregon should bury the pernicious idea of individual
  and local laws.

  She should enact a concise, clearly cut, and thoroughly effective
  code of wild life laws, just as New York did last winter.

  Her game seasons should be uniform in application, all over the
  state.

  Every species of bird, mammal or fish that is threatened with
  extermination should be given a close season of from five to ten
  years.

  It is now time to protect the white goose and brant.  Squirrels,
  band-tailed pigeons and doves should be perpetually protected.

  The State Game Commission should have power to close the shooting
  seasons on any species of game in any locality, whenever a species
  is threatened with extinction.

  The sale of native wild game, from all sources, should be
  permanently stopped, by a Bayne law.

  The use of automatic, “autoloading” and pump shot guns in hunting
  should be perpetually barred.

PENNSYLVANIA: 

As a game protecting state, Pennsylvania is a close second to New York and Massachusetts.  She protects all native game from sale; she has the courage to prohibit aliens from owning guns; she bars out automatic shot-guns in hunting; she makes refuges for deer, and feeds her quail in winter, and she permits the killing of no female deer, or fawns with horns less than three inches in length.  Her splendid State Game Commission is fighting hard for a hunter’s license law, and will win the fight for it at the next session of the legislature (1913).

But there are certain things that Pennsylvania should do: 

  She should stop all spring shooting.  She must stop killing doves,
  blackbirds, wild turkeys, sandpipers, and all the squirrels save the
  red squirrel.

  She should give all her shore birds a rest of at least five years,
  for recuperation.

  She should enact a comprehensive Dutcher plumage law, stopping the
  sale of aigrettes.

  She should provide a resident license to furnish her Game Commission
  with adequate funds to carry on its work and exterminate
  game-killing vermin.

RHODE ISLAND: 

  Little Rhody needs some good, small bag limits; for now (1912) she
  has none!

  She should enact a Bayne law, a Pennsylvania law against aliens,
  and a New Jersey law against the automatic and pump guns.

  She should stop killing the beautiful wood-duck, and gray squirrel.

  She should stop all spring shooting of waterfowl.

SOUTH CAROLINA: 

  She should save her game while she still has some to save.

  First of all, stop spring shooting; secondly, enact a Bayne law.

  In the name of mystery, who is there in South Carolina who desires
  to kill grackles?  And why?
