TEN CALVES ADDED TO U. s.
BISON HERD
Buffalo on Wichita National For
est Now Number Sixty-two
and Promise to Continue
Increasing

The governments herd OF buff
alo on the Wichita National For
est, in Oklahoma, which is also a
federal game preserve, has been
increased by the arrival OF ten
calves, according to report re-
ceived by the Forest Service from
the supervisor in charge. The
herd, which now comprises sixty
two specimens of the almost ex-
tinct bison, is in good condition,
says the supervisor, and promises
to continue increasing at a rapid
rate.
Eight of the calves are females,
bringing the number of heifers
and cows up to thirty. The bulls
number thrrty-two and have been

Forest land ever made by a singl
Presidential proclamation.
The boundaries of the Forest
as redrawn by the President s
proclamation, now contain ap-
proximately 5,818,000 acres, sup
porting about s billion feet of
understandable timber. On the area
thrown out Of the forest there is
IN the aggregate a large amount
OF timber, but it is so sparse and
scattered as to be of little or no
commercial value. The land re-
naming within the Forest, how
ever, contains the largest and
most accessible supply of timber
Tor the development Of the great
mineral fields to the north of Ber-
ing river, and is the region in
which the Alaskan Engineering
Commission has been authorized
to cut IS million feet of timber for
use IN constructing the govern
ment IS new railroad. On account
OF the time required for cutting
and seasoning construction timber,
chase some lumber from Washing
ton and Oregon, but as cutting
the Commission has had to pur-
has already commenced on the
Chugach, it is expected that the
Alaskan timber will soon be serv-
ing the needs of the railroad
builders.
The lands eliminated by the
proclamation are in three large
tracts; one along the entire south
erly slope of the Chugach noun
tains, the second lying northeast
of Seward, between Resurrection
bay and Kings bay, and the third,
northwest of the Kenai mountains
in the region around Tustamena
and Skilak lakes. In addition,
the towns of Hope, Sunrise, Kenai,
and Ninilchek are eliminated.
According to the Forest Service,
the chance of locating homesteads
in the excluded lands is extremely
small, since they contain few agri-
cultural areas, although in some
localities there are said to be
small patches suitable for farming.

Pineapple Disease to be Studied

The pineapple grower on the
East Coast will cooperate with the
University of Florida Experiment
Station in the Investigations of
pineapple wilt which the Station
has launched. Wilt is by far the
most serious disease with which
! the growers have to contend and
they have responded generously
TO the request for cOoperators.
Heretofore the Station has not
had funds with which to carry on
the work, but now it is hoped that
by a series of systematic expert
ments effective control measures
can be established.
DR.. C. D. Sherbakoff spent the
first few days of August in the
Fort Pierce region investigating
the disease and arranging expert
ments with the growers to be car.
ried out under his direction. From
his preliminary studies, DR.. Sher,
bakoff has decided that two sets
of Investigations will be necessary
in the work:
The first of these will be labora.

Archibald q. Mcllwaine I'd OF Hartford
played his second round in ~ strokes
only to lose a commanding lead of six

the match with r. T. Clark OF Ekwanok.
Clark, playing faultlesslv excepting for
putting, with a round which eventually
tutalled 20, squared the match at the
sixteenth green.
The seventeenth was halved and Nc
Tlwaine drove into a trap on the last
hole. As Clark overplayed the green
they were on even terms OF the green
ten feet from the pin. Mcllwaine's
nerve proved the steadiest and he saved

Herreshoff Would Mean
Changing vanitie.
HER TURN TO BE TESTED

Alexander Smith Cochran's sloop
Vanitie has beer laid up at Lawlcy's
yard at Neponset. near Boston. Last
winter after her first seasons racing
she was hauled out at City Island and
last spring was turned over TO former
Commodore Cornelius Vanderbilt, who
had the yacht overhauled and put In
commission for racing. No radical
changes were made on the vanitle. but
she was in much better racing trim
top hamper was considerably lightened
and the leads of the sheets were
changed so that the sails were trimmed
better and more handily and with the
aid OF new winches were handled much
faster than last year.
1t was the idea Of those interested
In the Resolute and Fanitie that the
Vanitie should be kept in one trim as
far as possible and sailed consistently
in order that experiments might be
made with the Resolute. These expert
ments have been made and now II is
said that Designer Hcrreshoff has opincd
that the Resolute is as fast as she can
DO made.
Just what is going to happen now
no one can tell, because so much de-
Ponds on the war. but the fact that
Nanitie In at Lawley's yard. where she
was built, has given rise to reports
that changes in that yacht are con-
~templated.
The seasons racing has shown that
the Resolute and Vanitie are very closely
matched and that II the Vanitie could
be improved a very little or II changes
could be made that would cut down the
time allowance without reducing the
yachts speed she would be able to beat
the Resolute. The Vanide having been
used as a trial a for m season. It is
possible that another year the Resolute
may be the trial boa and Efforts be
made To improve the Vanitie.
All sorts OF suggestions have been
made about the Nanitie and how she
might be improved. II IL said that the
yacht carries a lee helm, which OF cours'
seriously interferes with her speed. T,
correct this some changes of balance
must be made. and one suggestion has
been 10 hang the centreboard further
