In Russia pits for cock fighting are
unknown, but "gooSepitS" some sixty
years ago were common throughout
that mighty kingdom. The effect of
this can be seen today in the geese
which are indigenous to the country,
the Arsamas and the Tula varieties
particularly showing to a marked de-
gree the fighting characters Of their
ancestors. The Arsamas gander has
bill which is entirely different in
form from that of the geese known in
any other part of the world This
special structure enables the bird to
take firm grip on the neck or back
