ALLIGATORS WORTH MORE THAN STEERS

II He man Of science has been
studying the alligator and has
discovered that every part Is
Of some value. A half-grown
specimen is worth far more In money
than the largest steer that was ever
separated into articles Of commerce,
even in a Chicago absttoir. Take the
teeth, for instance. They are Of such
tine ivory that they can be made into
watch charms and other iewelry. for
they have q much brighter Ulster and
are as rich In tint as the best tusks
that ever came out Of an African eIe-
plants head. The teeth alone are
worth from two TO four dollars q
pound. according TO size. Every square
inch of the hide makes a covering
which IS far more durable and has a
more attractive finish Jnan most
feathers.
As the reptile has what might be
called an armored skin. considerable

reckless baggage smasher to do his

MI Bush began in 1850 a systematic
study Of the fora of Jackson county.
Two years later he published The
Flora of Jackson County, giving a list
of 60 species OF plants. This was the
first book published on the fora Of the
county.
The Re-. Cameron Mann. now bishop.
came to Kansas City in 1883 as pastor Of
Grace Episcopal Church. He had stud
led botany at college and was an enthu-
siast on the subject. Mr.. Bush and the
Rev. Mr.. Mann became acquainted and
studied together.
Mr. Bush published a supplement to
his Flora Of jackson County IN 1884.
In the investigation preceding It's issue
he was assisted by Bishop Mann. In
the supplement the total number of spe-
cies IN jackson county was raised to

The important development that can
be accomplished by personal application
to any branch Of work Is well illus
trated by the success that has come TO
one Of half dozen young men or In
dependence. No. who met one sunday
afternoon thirty years ago and decided
they would become students Of nature
i would be more profitable. they
thought. TO spend their Sundays and
holidays in the fields and woods rather
than in idleness about tire town. Each
chose q special line Of investigation.
The young man who decided 70 be a
botanlst was p. F. Bush. then employed
by a florist.
Bush went into the woods and struck
up an acquaintance with trees and
plants; he took noticeIof every green
thing that grew. While he carried on
his observations he studied books. Soon
he began to discover mistakes that
other botanists had made. And after
awhile be began to discover plants that
were new 10 science. Then the other
botanists OF the country took notice.
Recognition came AMI today Bush Is
recognized as one Of Americas fore
