AID FOR THE TENDERFooT
Cowboy Kindergarten in Oklahoma
for Eastern Boys Who Would
Rough It.

Guthrie, Ok. c. Miller, manager
of the 101 ranch, says that they are
making great preparation to handle
the continuous performance kinder
garten" next summer for the benefit
of the Eastern youths who want to
know what life on big ranch is really
like. According to the present plans
they expect to take care of about 40G
of them in four months time, 100 a
month.
I'VE will furnish them a good mount
and blanket" said Mr.. Miller, "and
put them out in camps along the
river some place. Let them sleep out
doors, eat out of the tail end of a
wagon, and live the regular cowboy
life, but of course, without much OF
the work of it. Well send some of
the cowboys that are pretty good fel.
lows-good story tellers and all that,
over to take care of them, and have
a cattle roundup once in a while for
their benefit"

GAME SEASON IN MAINE.
More Deer Shot in the State Last Fall
Than Ever Before in Its
History.

Bar Harbor, Me.-The report of the
fish and game commissioners for the
state of Maine, recently filed with the
governor, shows that the game season
of 1905 was a record breaking one.
The commissioners say that there
have been more hunters in the state
than ever before and that more moose
and deer have been shot.
The record kept by the American
Express company at Bangor shows
that 1886 deer, 210 moose and 38 bears
have been shipped to various points.
Thus far this breaks the record.
Practically all the deer and moose
shipped were killed by sportsmen from
outside the state, mostly from New
York. If every deer that was killed
in 1906 could be recorded, the number
would come as shock to most people.
1t is estimated that perhaps one-third
or less of the deer killed are shipped,
which would mean that more than a.
900 deer were killed in Maine last fall.
This season the hunting conditions
were very favorable, the weather was
good and the game plentiful. Then, of
course, the general prosperity of the
country has something to do with it.
The greater part of those who come
to Maine to hunt are men of moder-
ately well to do positions, who prefer
to spend their brief vacation in the
woods Facilities for getting into the
woods at nominal expense are better
than ever before

PROTECTION FOR GAME.
Agricultural Department Shows the
Need Of Action to Prevent Ex-
tinction Of Animals.

washington.---The thorough restock-
ing of game covers is urged in re-
port issued by the department Of agri-
culture in report on game condi-
tons in January"
Nov that the hunting season 10
practically over" the report says. "the
biological survey suggests that efrorts
be directed toward insuring more Eff
fectiye protection OF game and an ade-
quate supply for the future. Owing to
the nonmigratory character OF quail
and the consequent depletion OF yari-
Gus localities where hunting has been
excessive or the birds have been killed
on by the severity of the past two
winters, restocking is frequently nee
essary, but the demand for live birds
for this purpose far exceeds the avail
able supply.
"The difficulty Is augmented by the
fact that southern birds are scarcely
hardy enough TO stand northern win
tiers, and hence It is difficult for noSlh-
ern states to secure birds suited 70 the
climate
"Perceiving that absence OF food aud
shelter is the principal cause OF NOR,
tally, state officials. game associations
aud many private individuals have
united in attempting to make good
these deficiencies. Grain and other
food have been distributed freely and
systematically after heavy snowtasls,
when the usual food Is covered, and
suitable shelter has been provided.
"Much activity prevailed last year In
Illinois. Indiana, Massachusetts,, Mary
land, New Jersey, North Carolina and
West Virginia Such measures are
needed to preserve the quail from pos
sible ultimate extinction"

Flock of aulls Gorged

A Nanaimo, Wash, fisherman had a
unique experience with flock of gulls
several evenings ago. He reached
Nanaimo in an open boat containing
two tons of herring. While uptown the
sea gulls took possession of the boat.
On his return all but 60 few away
This number had SO gorged themselves
that they could not fly, but hoped
about in state OF helplessness. The
fisherman finally climbed into the boat
and lifted them overheard They were
able to swim with an effort and most
of them went ashore to recover from
the effects of their feast.

UNIQUE Music Box.

The charming daughter Of Mr..
Patrick Mulhooly was within few
weeks of her twenty-first birthday, and
her proud father decided that he
would buy her a music stool, one of
those that can be lowered or raised by
twisting the seat around. A few
hours after he had brought his pur-
chase home his wife discovered him
with his coat off and great drops OF
perspiration pouring from his face,
diligently screwing the seat up and
down. "Arrah, Pat" said she, "what
have We got there?'
''It's q little present for Kathleen, -
he explained betweeC his gasps. eye
know she has a liking for music.
Sorra a bit of good this will be to her
at all, at all. Shure I've been winding
the blissid machine up for the lasl
two hours and niver a tune has il
played yet. The thing won't even
squake."

Mrs. Senator Knox Makes Butter

Far out of the common run of pres.
ents is the kind of gift Mrs. P. c. Knox
makes now and then to certain of her
closest friends. Books? No. Pictures?
Pshaw. Jewels? Never? Just dainty lit
tie cases, holding each five pounds of
butter.
No grocery stuff this, but from the
Knox dairy, and immensely proud OF
it is the wife of the Senator from Pen
nsylvania. About three years ago
her eldest son, Reed Knox, elected to
be a farmer, and his parents estab.
lished him on a rich stretch Of land
near the famous Valley Forge. The
Senator and Mrs. Knox are delighted
with rustic life and spend much time
on the farm.
Last winter Mrs. Knox suffered from
nervous trouble, so she Cancelled her so
cial engagements and retired to Val
ley Forge. She spent the summer and
autumn in the dairy, experimenting
the milking and churning, and at odd
times she read advanced works on the
subject.
She is as proud of her butter as any
model farmers wives in old-fashioned
English novels, and during the fall and
winter she has been distributing the
proofs of her proficiency in the butter
making line.

them the support of an extensive area of
wooded hills to the left, and right, and the
Marne river, with its high banks, at the
rear. In front extended the great Cata-

and one of great natural strength. There
fore they showed no disposition to ad-

Bank Stocks Valuable.

A recent list of New York City s
eighty-one commercial banks, with the
latest prices bid for the $100 shares
of each, shows that only one stock is
offered at par. All the other eighty
stocks are bid for at a premium, the
prices offered ranging from $110 fol
three or four, to $4,000 for one stock.
Other very high prices are $4,000,
81, $50, $1,000 and 1880, enc of each.
Only twenty-one of the eighty-one
stocks are bid for at prices below $500.
Forty-one range from 5000 to $500 and
twelve from $500 to $1,000.
This is striking testimony to Ameri-
can banking success and also to the
rapidly growing Importance of New
York as world money-center.
