THE WATER BUFFALO
A Manila Correspondent Tells All
About His Ways
The Natives Call the Creature Cara
boO-A Patient Beast of Burden
When Managed by Natives
Must Have Water.

Long Of horn and tough Of hide is
the carabao. Sometimes it is called the
water buffalo, and it resembles the ami
NAL of that name which is found in In
dia. The name is fitting, for the owner,
if left to himself, will stay in the water
nearly all day. TO the native it is in
valuable. 1t tills his fields and draws
his product to market. 1t is meek and
patient and docile, with great strength
and a will to pull whatever it is yoked
to over any road.
The army has found the bull train
to be of great service in transporting
provisions and ammunition from point
to point. Once the transfer had to be
made from the Bag-Bag river to San
Fernando, a distance of 12 miles. 1t
took half a day to make the journey.
Some of the carab bao died, but as rule
the method of transportation was
success, though slow. A buffalo draw
ing heavy load of ammunition was
driven up sharp grade at Bag-Bag
to reach the railroad track. Both front
feet slipped, and the beast fell to his
knees. Yet he pulled that load up the
grade on his knees and did not attempt
to stop until the strain had slackened.
Then it was found that the knees of
the animal had been skinned and were
bleeding.
One popularity about the buffalo is
that he must have water and demands
it twice day at least. Through the
green that surrounds Manila on the
south there runs small stream that
empties and fills with the ebb and flow
of the tide When it is low there is
plenty of mud, and when high the water
is not clear. But the government cara
bao that are loafing there now are not
particular about the condition of the
stream. They feed along the green
slope until the heat of the day, then
they crawl down into the mud and lie

BUFFALO BREEDING.
Il h 70 Ne Taken Up ~ = Business
By . Texas Cattle
Company.

"Most people are of the belief" re-
marked Sheriff Taylor, of Sherman,
Texas, according to the Memphis
Scimitar, that the American bison is
an extinct animal, but that is a great
mistake. 1t is true that in comparison
with the numbers of the beasts that
used to thunder over the western
plains the numbers now to be found are
insignificant; but yet there are some
in existence, and there are measures
now under contemplation for the prop
agation of the species, SO that in time
they may become reasonably common
again.
Il know of only one herd of buffalo
in Texas, that belonging to Mrs. Mary
Goodnight, of the Goodnight Cattle
company, in the Panhandle. Her herd
comes down from the original stock of
the herdsmen of the Goodnight pas
lures captured three calves and after
domesticating them as much as their
natures would permit proceeded to
breed them. This was done as pas
time and without any special purpose
in view until the race began to go out
Of existence, and then it was decided to
90 into the inbreeding as an industry.
So the herd has grown until now it
numbers about 70, 60 or more being
full-grown and healthy specimens of
the species.
II have often seen these animals on
the Goodnight range, and they certain
ly bring to mind the old time on.the
plains. The Goodnight people have the
means to go into the cultivation of the
buffalo on liberal scale, and in Texas
it is understood to be the purpose of the
managers for Mrs. Goodnight to dis
pose of none of the stock for period
of years, say 25, when the herd will
number something like 5000.
II am told that there are other herds
in the United States. Buffalo Jones,
of Kansas, has a large herd. He has
always taken great interest in the
propagation of the animals, and of
late has been working on scheme to
have the United States government to
set aside large pasture for the ex-
elusive range of buffaloes, the breed
ing stock to be contributed by Mrs.
Goodnight, Jones and any others who
may have any of the animals which
they would be willing to part with"

So great has been the rise of automo-

1895 it was 256,084; in 1896. 329,S16.

last year, however, have just been pub

nearly half million. 1t may con.
fidently be expected, however. that the
