Excerpt from A. N. Marquis and Co. 'S Handy Business Directory of Chicago, 1888: Embracing an Alphabetical and a Classified List of All Firms and Individuals Engaged in Business or Professional Pursuits, a Street and Avenue Guide, and Much Other Useful Information The Chicago, Milwaukee St. Paul Railway Company now owns and operates over fifty-six hundred miles of thoroughly equipped road, in Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri and Dakota. Ieach recurring year its lines are extended in all directions, to meet the necessities of the rapidly populating sections of country west, northwest and southwest of Chicago, and to furnish a market for the products of the greatest agricultural and stock raising districts of the world. In Illinois it operates 317 miles of track; in Wisconsin, miles; In Iowa, miles; in Minnesota, miles; in 'dakota, miles; in. Missouri, 142 miles; and the end is not yet. It has terminals in such large cities as Chicago, Milwaukee, La Crosse, St. Paul, Minneapolis, Fargo, Sioux City, Council Bluffs, Omaha, Kansas City, and St. Joseph, and along its lines are hundreds of large and small thriving cities, towns and villages, Manufacturing interests are cultivated, and all branches of trade find encouragement. The Railway Company has a just appreciation of the value of its patrons, and its magnificent earnings are the result of the good business tact which characterizes the management of its affairs. The popularity of the line is attested by the fact that, notwithstanding the strongest kind of competition of old and new lines, the Chicago, Mil Waukee St. Paul Railway continues to carry the greater proportion of all the business between Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Minneapolis. It is the best patronized route -to and from all points in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Dakota and Iowa, and its Kansas City and St. Joseph line will undoubtedly take equal rank with the older lines leading to and from the Southwest.

A fascinating look at how a commercial market for birds in the late nineteenth century set the stage for conservation and its legislation. Between the end of the Civil War and the 1920s, the United States witnessed the creation, rapid expansion, and then disappearance of a commercial market for hunted wild animals. The bulk of commercial wildlife sales in the last part of the nineteenth century were of wildfowl, who were prized not only for their eggs and meat but also for their beautiful feathers. Wild birds were brought to cities in those years to be sold as food for customers' tables, decorations for ladies' hats, treasured pets, and specimens for collectors' cabinets. Though relatively short-lived, this market in birds was broadly influential, its rise and fall coinciding with the birth of the Progressive Era conservation movement. In The Market in Birds, historian Andrea L. Smalley and wildlife biologist Henry M. Reeves illuminate this crucial chapter in American environmental history. Touching on ecology, economics, law, and culture, the authors reveal how commercial hunting set the terms for wildlife conservation and the first federal wildlife legislation at the turn of the twentieth century. Smalley and Reeves delve into the ground-level interactions among market hunters, game dealers, consumers, sportsmen, conservationists, and the wild birds they all wanted. Ultimately, they argue, wildfowl commercialization represented a revolutionary shift in wildlife use, turning what had been a mostly limited, local, and seasonal trade into an interstate industrial-capitalist enterprise. In the process, it provoked a critical public debate over the value of wildlife in a modern consumer culture. By the turn of the twentieth century, the authors reveal, it was clear that wild bird populations were declining precipitously all over North America. The looming possibility of a future without birds sparked intense debate nationwide and eventually culminated in the 1918 Migratory Bird Treaty Act. Scholars, environmentalists, wildlife professionals, and anyone concerned about wildlife will find this new perspective on conservation history enlightening reading.
