GAME WARDEN
 HAS EXHIBIT
Will Show Animals, Birds, Rodents and Reptiles of This Section at Fair Aim to Interest State Res idents in Protection

Frank w. Rogers, state game war den, will have the only exhibit of any of the state departments in the fair with the possible exception of the asylum and the state prison. It is assured that MT Rogers will place an extensive and comprehensive ar ray of the western animals, birds and rodents in his wing of the Woman's building. The other exhibits have not been definately decided on but the inmates of the asylum and the prison have been manufacturing on a small scale for the past six months such things as baskets, hat bands, spurs, and novelties of like sort and they may put some of their work in the fair.
 MT. Rogers exhibit will be large, not so large as he had expected but large enough to give to the average person a comprehensive idea of the health of this state in fur bearers, birds and other animals and reptiles. The exhibit will be free of charge, as it was last year. and will be an edu- cation in itself, to which all the visi- tors at the grounds will be wei cOmed.
 The collector of the exhibits, the game warden, with perhaps one or more of his assistants will be in the building all the time of the exhibit and he will conduct the visitors about the cages and will tell of the lives and habits of his captives, and of the good or harm they may do the farmer, rancher and general resident.
 The object of the exhibit is in it. self, to get the birds and animals of the valley and the state before the people with a view toward further protection to the deserving, and to show the farmer and others directly affected wherein they in killing most of the animals and birds of the state which are now killed as pests.
 The exhibit will include all the rodents, birds, animals and reptiles of the state, or as many of them as can be secured. Through the kind ness of their owner, MT. Rogers has secured for the show two deer. one a Mexican white tail buck, and the other an Arizona black tail doe, which will be in their booths to eat out of the hands of the visitors and have their silky-soft cool noses rub bed There will be a Texan Musk hog. a bob cat and lynx, kit fox, birds of all or nearly all varieties found in this state and the west, reptiles, and rodents galore. In fact it will be as extensive and exclusive an exhibit of animals and live things as has ever been assembled in this state
 In order that the assemblage may be all the more complete, MT. Rogers will appreciate any loans of birds or animals native to this section. If anyone has such in his possession and wishes them to appear in the exhibit all that is necessary is to telephone MT. Rogers at the state house, and he will send for the con- tributions, seeing that while in his care they receive the best of prOtec ton and handling and that they are returned to the owners in as good shape as they were taken away.
 There is a pressing need of edu- cation in the lines of natures help CTS in this state according to the op inion of MT. Rogers and this will be but one of the many attempts made by that officer to show the people of the state how valuable as helpers to the crops and destrOyers of in sects, and harmful life, the birds
