Charms of Fossil Hunting.

One Of the charms Of the fossil hunt
er's life is the variety, the element of
certainty, combined with the gambling
element of chance. Like the prospector

suddenly from the extreme of detection
in a great variety Of ways, sometimes
as the result Of prolonged and deliber-
ate scientific search in region which
is known to be fossiliferous, sometimes
in such prosaic manner as the dig

The Texas and Louisiana frogs excel
the northern product. They are twice the
size, and this in itself would settle the
question. The northern frog only has
few months of activity out of each year
and lies in a dormant state the remainder
of the time, while the frogs of the south
have at least ten months, out of the
twelve. The southern section of Texas
is pronounced the finest frog territory
in the country. This has only been so
since the development Of the rice indus

they breed by the thousands and they
