CHINESE HAD FIRST zoo.
Institution Of MenaaerIes Was Due to
Two Incentives.

The Chinese had the drst ZOO. Me-
nageries are thought to owe their
origin partly to the cult of sacred
animals and partly to the ambition Of
rulers to possess specimens of rare
and valuable creatures from foreign
lands or savage beasts from their own.
In the simplest forms geological gar
dens were one Of the earliest develop
ments of culture. and were familiar to
the Chinese. Indians. Greeks. Romans.
and pre-Spanish Mexicans In ancient
times. The oldest recorded menagerie
is Chinese, dating from 1850 B. G. The
den OF lions kept by Darius. as de-
scribed In the book or Daniel. Is an ex-
ample of one of those primitive me-
nageries, while the cult OF sacred
white horses by the ancient Greeks
and Romans and that of so-called
white elephants in Burma and Siam
are instances Of a second type. A live
giraffe was received at the menagerie
Of .Schonbrunn as early as 1928.

A LAND PRODUCING.
TWO CROPS PER YEAR
MarvelousIy Rich; Enormous Yield;
Farmers FIocking In.

Brownsville, Tex, Feb. 5.-Browns-
Vile is the southern terminus of the
st. Louis, Brownsville & Mexico rail-
way. This line was completed in 1904.
and has opened up to development q
section Of the richest and most pro-
ductive land to be found anywhere In
the United States-California not ex-
cepted.
There is no more fertile region in
all this broad land Of ours than that be-
tween the Nueces and the Rio Grande.
None will produce greater variety Of
fruits and vegetables, or produce them
more abundantly; and what counts for
more, the Gulf coast country will pro-
duce them at times when no other re-
gion can. Two crops per year of the
staple vegetables Is the regular pro-
gramme. And yet up to the fall Of
1904 comparatively little was known
Of this marvellous fertility. The re-
gion has heretofore been given over
to cattle raising-ranches of thousands
Of acres-thus tying up all this vast
natural Winter Vegetable Garden" un-
der the merciless hoof of Texas beef
producers.
But this is all changing and chang
ing fast. Eastern and northern farm
ers and fruit growers are fiocking into
this country. Towns are springlng up
ranches have been cut up into farms
-on every hand is the evidence Of a
new era Of prosperity and of develop
ment along the line Of extensive irri-
gated farming.
There is an underlying sheet Of
clear artesian water which has been
tapped by hundreds Of wells. and more
are being sunk daily. This provides
a never-failing source of supply for the
one element needed to make this coun-
try veritable garden. and there are
those who predict great things for this
Gulf coast of Texas. l am advised
that 16 car loads of people were
brought down from different points
along the st. Louis, Brownsville &
Mexico railway by the Rock Island
trains alone on January Is, which was
the date of low-rate excursion.
At this pace the country bids fair
to be peopled In short order. And all
It needs is people.
