Heavy Loss.

The absolute destruction of nearly
300 head of animals without realizing
anything from the carcass except the
hide would entail loss of several thou
sand dollars and the subject of how
these animals could be most economical

consideration IN various meetings and
conferences between the members of the
committee on animal industry. the man
ager Of the Waialae ranch, and Mr..
lsenherg s representative here. Mr.
Alexander McBryde. The ultimate re-
suit of these conferences led 10 the ar-
ceptance by Mr.. Bailey of an offer from
