PROFIT IN IOWA DEER FARM
Conducted by Trapper Who Had Tried
Wild Geese and Wolves with
No Success.

Des Moines, Ia.-Twenty miles south.
west of Mason City is the only deer
farm in the, west. 1t is operated by
John w. Griggs, q hunter and trap
per of pioneer days, who has a herd
OF 100 deer, from which he yearly re-
Allies good profit.
Griggs' farm has been a geological
retreat for years. First he reared
wolves. then wild geese. then ante
lope, then elk, and now deer. He be-
gan Is years ago with q pair of Vir-
gina deer and has experimental with
white tails, black tails and other by
birds, bat the climate of Iowa has
evolved a type OF the northern deer
as the one hardy enough for all pur-
poses.
Griggs pays as much attention to
the breeding of the deer as the aver
age former does to the breeding CT
horses. This is necessary TO prevent
fnbreeding, which means scrubs. The
mating season is in November, the
fawns are born in May or June and
by fail the spots have all left the
fawns and their normal coat Of hair
appears.
Deer in captivity breed as well as in
the wild state. Young does usually
give birth to a single fawn, but the
older ones usually have twins. Last
year Griggs' 35 does brought him sc
fawns. These require no care.
The deer corral, which includes a
large piece of~woodland. is surround
ed by an eight-foot woven wire fence,
doubly strengthened as to posts. The
natural food of deer is the green bits
Of the forest, but they can be taught
to like corn, while alfalfa and clover
are delicacies that appeal to their ap-
petites.
Griggs markets yearly ali the deer
he cares to sell. For park purposes
he gets from s25 to $50 each, while
for venison he secures as much from
a carca:r. thS Snsiezs bringing ia an
average of five dollars each. About
the only losses come from injuries in
fiicted when deer is frightened and
from conflicts of angry or jealous
bucks.

REVISION OF THE
 CATHOLIC BIBLE

From the New York Sun.
 1 It fs well known that throughout Cath ollie Christendom since the time of Greg ory the Great the authorized version of the Scriptutes has been the vulgate, or Latin translation of the Old and the New Testaments, originally made by St. Je- rome near the close of the fourth century of our era. The edition of this version which is now sanctioned Is the Clemen- tine. published in 15SS. after revision had occupied forty years. It was hoped that good deal of aid might be de- rived from this latest form of the Vul- gate at the time when a revision of the , King James version of the Scriptures, authorized to be used in the Church of England, was undertaken hy English and American scholars. disappoint- ment, however, was experienced, as even the Clementine text of the Vulgate was found to be corrupt or untrust- worthy.
 Taking cognizance of the imperfections determined to correct them In May, 1907, he committed the task of revis- ing the vulgate to the Order of the Ben edictines, and to that end a commission was appointed with Abbot Gasquet, president of the English Benedictines, at its head. The object of the commission according to the Pope's definite instruct ions, is to ascertain and restore as far as possible the original text of St. Je- romes Latin translation How far St. Jerome's translation itself represents the Hebrew or Greek originals Is another question, which may be a subject for future criticism and another commission For the moment the task is its accurate reproduction.
 The difficulties to be dealt with will be appreciated when we recall those which had to be surmounted even fifteen cen turies ago. When Pope Damasus em- ployed Jerome to revise the Latin Bible there was already confusion of rival versions, conspicuous among which was the socalled "Itala." Jerome, however. had advantages which are not possessed today. He could compare dozens of ancient texts for one that Is now in ex- istence. Then again, he had before him the ''Iexaplar' of Origen, which repre- sented not only the Septuagint in a state to which we can never hope to re- store it, but the literal Greek translat- tions of Aquila, Theodotion and Symma- chus, of which we have only fragments. It is further to be noted that scarcely had Jeromes translation heen com pleted than it began itself to fall into corruption, because 1t was received with scant favor by people accustomed to the old versions especially in the liturgy.

hunter trod the lonely trail there roars and rushes the mighty locomotive.
 And down in the glen nearby I seems to see. in the moonlight of this night of waning summer, two stalwart beech trees the wigwam and the chained bear, and hear the rustic of wandering winds among the cane, the ripples of the spring branch, and two comrades recounting their war memories-one the true and magnanimous Luther Morgan, the other him who loved liberty better than life, and who stood until the curtain fell upon the most remarkable conflict recorded in history--1S7 men, armed only with guns and knives, against 4000 trained soldiers, splendidly equipped, and aided by parks of artillery, and when the battle ended the 187 men were all slaughtered and 20O0 of their enemies lay cold in death; and over all, through the pale mist of plying skies, the lone star of Texas!
 What wonderful career was that of the chieftain who drank in water, with knightly grace, to the honor and happi- ness of her whose gentle hand had smoothed his fevered brow. whose tender nursing had saved his life, whose modesty had taught him greater reverence for all women, that humble pioneers good wife in the distant valley.
 He, the theme of song and story the wide world over, who poured forth his ty, and died smilingly that he could die for 1t.
 He so loved nature that surely, some where in the valley, a wild rose will bloom and 8 morning glory twine in mem ory of him, and a thrush sing in the gloaming.

and at the most it was current side by side with the more familiar "Itala'' un- til Gregory the Great intervened and or dered Jerome's translation to be gener- ally used except In the Psalter. Nor was 1t until 1593 that an authentic" yer sion of the Vulgate was published by Clement VIII
 There is no doubt that the revising of the Cementine text of the Vulgate Is now being conducted on the most modern and scientific lines. An exhaustive in- vestigation is making through all the libraries of Europe In the hope nf finding hitherto unrecognized manuscript copies of the Vulgate.
