The Return Of the Pocket Gopher

AhS fkSseAA vs. thS &SbAVe ~
We revere and love every oompart-
ment and Granny Of the United States
Department Of Agriculture and regret
that it's long efforts to uplift the farmer
should have to be supplemented by g
commission. And OF those long efforts
none other is 80 precious, 70 hallowed,
II we may say 80, by old association and
wont, so full Of memories and hopes,
instruction and entertainment, as the
Bureau Of Biological Survey, C. HART
MERRIAM director. Doubtless Direc-
tor MERRIAM's name suggests to biolo-
gists athousand successful experiments
and momentous discoveries. To the
humble hay student II connotates goph-
ers, and Of all gophers the pocket
kind.
When THEODORE ROOSEVELT was as
severely local and obscure as, say, Jane
street, when men now mighty in the
lawn tennis cabinet and oounoils OF the
nation were scarcely born, the sparkling
pocket gopher papers Of the Bureau Of
Biology were already famous. Science.
poetry and art Joined hands In these
inestimable productions, a full set Of
which may some day be as eagerly
sought for by bibliophiles as the rarest
work Of Poe. There has never been any
other Government literature compare
BILE to them. They have made the
pocket gopher as well known as the lion
or the mouse. Royal parks Of pocket
gophers may be found in Europe, Asia
and Africa, and In many parts of the
United States they are raised for the
bounty.
A peculiar pleasure, then, should
emanete from Circular No. 81, revised
edition, Directions for Destroying
Pocket Gophers.' a document which, on
account Of the fondness OF these pets Of
the Bureau of Biology for clover and
alfalfa, we especially recommend 10

ian, Alfalfa BILL. But has the Hon.
JAMES WILSON seen the reproduction
in this bulletin Of a painting Of the Mis-
sissippi Valley pocket gopher (Geomys
bursarius) by Mr.. f. T. SETON? A
picture to make the seated heart knock
at her ribs. Here is a horrendous beast,
somewhere between the lion, the lob
ster and the Hyrcan tiger, but with
terrible teeth full high advanced and
ferocious toothlike claws. This is no
Geomys bursarius. This must be a

She said it loudly enough for those
sitting near to hear. she flashed a
daring look at Armstrong as she spoke,
q look of amused comprehension and
pity that made his cheeks Jingle Gret-
ia had a headache and made her escape
very soon and Miss Silvertar talked
golf with Armstrong for two hours and
never made reference to the situation
she had engineered. She was too clev-

Nobody could have accused Arm
strong Of flirting. His attentions to the
two girls were simply those which
came about naturally through proxim-
ity but old Mrs. Smith grew restless.

The day after Armstrong had
brought Gretta book which she had
wanted TO read and a box of candy to
Daisy, who preferred chocolates to
mind culture, he went home for Wis
It. Gretta's book naturally lasting
longer than the candy, she had the
advantage Of being able to faunt her
spells after her rival had passed
around the last Of the box which Mr.
Armstrong brought me-.
This is the most interesting book
Gretta would say when Daisy was
within hearing. "John-Mr. Arm
strong always knows just what / like
best to read!'
1T hurts your eyes, though" Daisy
would murmur to this. "You really
should do something for them-don't
you think that you need glasses,
dear?"
It was old Mrs. Smith who bore down
on an after-dinner group like an agit-
ated ship under full sail. She had been
at the desk when the manager received
