CALIFORNIA AND IT'S GAME.

San Francisco.-Thef fish and game
commissioners of California at re-
cent meeting decided not to trap quail
in one section of the state for the pur-
pose of stocking other sections, but
will secure large numbers of duail
from Mexico for stocking purposes.
The commission has also been au-
thorized to dispose of from fifty to
one hundred Mexican wild turkeys.
Ever since the state began to propa-
gate these wild turkeys there has been
a demand from breeders of turkeys
for birds in order to introduce the
wild blood into the domestic strain
because it is claimed that by crossing
the domestic bird with the wild bird
vitality and flavor are enhanced.
1t was decided to establish expert
mental salmon hatcheries in the
neighborhood of Sacramento. Inves-
tlgation during the past six months
has demonstrated that millions Of
young salmon were annually lost by
be ng swept by high water into the
Yolo and Sutter basins during the
saward migration of the young SAL
mon.

PIPES TELL OF THE MAN.
Frcnchman says He Can Tell Nations
Character by Smoking Habits.

Paris.-There recently appeared in
one of the Paris newspapers some am
using aXioms of NJ. VAUDEVILLE, who
has devoted many years to the form
alton of a collection of pipes of all
nationalities. VAUDEVILLE declares that
while cigars and cigarettes are cos
mopolitan. pipes show by their pecu-
liarities the characteristics of the race
which smokes them.
The activity. of race. says NJ.
VAUDEVILLE, is proportionate to the
length of the stem of the pipe which
Ii smokes. The longer the stem is
the lazier are the people who smoke
1t. and, inversely, the hardest work
ers smoke the shortest pipes Big
pipe bowls denote generosity, small
pipe bowls prove economy.
Critical readers have informed
Watteville that he has evidently not
taken into account the class of man
who carries a pipe with very large
bowl and borrows his tobacco.
