that the Texas spring clip this year

1000. 600 pounds as compared with
more than 100000 pounds last year
The fail clip in Texas last year aggre-
gated about 1000 600 pounds, and Il Is
probable that II will fall short OF that
amount this year. The decrease In this
years yield Is said TO be due to loss

eountry at one time or other, and csndor
compels one 10 admit that when strange
beasts and birds from foreign parts have
lived here at all they have usually become
a pest. The balance of nature is dis
turbed, and the result is that there Is
discomfort all round.
1t seems as 10, instead OF introducing
new species where they do not belong,
some effort might well be made to pre-
serve native. birds and animals. The gray
squirrel, which is certainly an animal
worth preserving, has been almost ex-
terminated In many parts of the country,
owing to the beauty OF its skin. Native
song birds and some species of game have
shared the same fate. 1t would take
mparatively little money and trouble to
establish preserves of these creatures,
defend them from their natural enemies,
aud see that they we're fed and sheltered
until their original haunts were restocked
with them. Then, by iudicious legisla-
tion and enforcement OF the game laws,
they could be protected so that the
natural proportion OF them would be kept
up. and the whole country would be the
richer for it.
The ease with which the native inha bi.
fants OF country regain their old position
in natures economy, after having been
driven out of it for a time, Is shown by
the rapidity with which game is incress-

which have not known venison for two
or three generations, the farmers are
shooting deer now and then. The
animals wander down from less fire.
