but none has made material advance
and all together have had little effect

results of the agitation were the estab-

for their private estates. Several of
our geological gardens also have done
excellent service through securing
small herds and endeavoring to sur

to breeding. One of the most intelli-

Geological society of New York, which
has gathered the largest number to be
