"OUR years ago. in response to a
resolution of the senate. Secre-
tary of Agriculture Wilson sub
mitted a report beginning with
these words: THE American bison is
on the verge of determination. Scarce
Iy n handful now remain Of the mil
lions which formerly roamed over the
plains OF the west" At that time only
two small herds of wild buffalo were
In existence in the United States, one
of twenty-five individuals in the Vel
lowstone and one of ten in Lost park,
Colorado. 1t looked as II the bison
would soon be as extinct as the dino
saur. His friends, in and out of con-
gress, began to agitate in his behalf.
Their appeals have moved the heart Of
the great white father at Washington,
though II took four years to do 1t, and
he has adopted a herd of tame buffo-
loes. which he purposes to make wild.
This herd is the gift of the New York
Geological society. 1t consists of twen-
ty animals in good condition. From
Its cramped quarters in Bronx park,
New York, II will be transferred, prob
ably In October or November, to a
range of twelve square miles In the
Wichita forest and game preserve In
southwestern Oklahoma. The new ag-
ricultural appropriation bill provided
$4,000 for the fencing of this range,
which will furnish good grazing ground.
permanent water and shelter from
storms. Here the buffaloes will enjoy
the conditions under which their prim-
Tive ancestors thrived, and II their
spirits have not been too much sub
dued by long captivity they should not
be slow In hearing the call of the wild.
The agricultural department hopes to
have better luck with the bison than
It had with the burros recently sent to
the Philippines, which, although shell
ter for them was provided, stayed out
all night In a tropical storm and were
drowned in their pasture. The
blamed fools didn't have sense enough
to get in out of the RAIN" the official
herder reported.
1t is computed that there were fully
10000 900 buffaloes In North America
before the white man came. The whole
of this great shaggy population used to
travel in q circular route through the

continent, all keeping more or less In
touch with IL another during this
slow but continuous migratory exist
ence. The Indians killed no more than
were annually replaced by birth, and
no game laws were needed to keep the
bison census up to its high level. With
the coming of the paleface, Indians
and buffaloes alike melted away.
Apart from sentiment the buffalo Is
a valuable animal. Its meat is excel
lent, so closely resembling beef that 1t
Is difficult to detect the difference, and
no scandal has yet placed it under
suspicion. The buffalo's skin makes a
fine overcoat and an unequaled Ear
rage robe. Heads Of the bull bison
bring high prices for decorative pur-
poses.
Private preservation and even do
m~esticatlon of the bison have been
tried In New Hampshire with consid-
cradle success. The Blue Mountain
Game preserve, founded by the late
Austin Corbin, now has a herd Of 16O
b~uffaloes, and many calves have beer
sold and given away. From this herd
came the parents Of the animals which
the Bronx zoo has presented to the
government. Buffaloes are wonder
fully healthy animals, and their warm
coats make it possible for them to
withstand the most intense cold with
out discomfort. Even In New Hamp-
shire they require no shelter In the
dead of winter.
One New Hampshire breeder, who
states that he has made a big profit
out of. his small herd, figures the cost
of hay for the five years which a bu
falo requires to reach maturity at sex
A full grown buffalo Is worth from
$3.50 to $500, dead or alive. One man
can easily take care Of POO buffaloes
In the winter and have time left fes
other things. In the summer the an
finals take care of themselves. This
New Hampshire breeder finds that II
the calves are properly weaned his
herd increases as rapidly as a herd OF
ordinary cattle. He has broken two
bull calves to the yoke. has trained
them to draw a heavily loaded cart
over the mountainous roads OF the
Granite State and win exhibit them.
