to hear the CHEEKY call of the "Bob
White" in all the more thickly settled
rural regions Of Colorado,
About the first of the year a confer
ence will be held between the members
of the board of agriculture, horticul-
ture and representatives of the game
wardens' department to make arrange
ments for the importation OF about
800 900 quail There is no finer game
bird in the country than the quail, and
it is realized that every safeguard must
be thrown around him for his protec-
tion from the man with gun" That
the newcomer may enjoy an immu-
nifty from the pot hunter. he is to have
closed season throughout the year.
The Bob White is the greatest
bug-eater in the country, according to
bulletin recently issued by the gov
ernment bureau on mammals and
birds. and he is to be protected for the
ranchman, the fruit-grower and the
gardener As a necessary asset to the
farm and as game for hunters, it is
stated by experts of the agricultural
department, that a five-hundred acre
ranch devoted to the raising Of Bob
Whites" would net the owner more
than it would if converted into poul-
try farm.
If the plans which are now being
formulated for the introduction OF
quail into Colorado are carried into
effect, the birds will be brought here
from North Corolina, and it is believed
that the expense can be paid from the
general incidental fund of the state.
Government estimates that a single
Bob White" will eat half an ounce
of weed seed daily from September |
to April 80. At this rate 800, ,0OO quail
would devour more than 1900 tons Of
the seed Of noxious plants in one sea-
son. Besides, the quail is the natural
enemy of the grasshopper, potato bug,
cotton boil weevil, the cut worm and
the army worm. The young quail are
particularly fond Of all classes Of harm
full insects.

Moses Lamb; rambling preacher

porary boarding house in Monongah
they having been brought there by
