Every Person in Country
May Make Report on
Amount Given.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.--A new
revenue bill will authorize billion

the House ways and means commit
tee today, revealed these two moves
Roper assured the committee if he
is given $l00O0.000 to hire a force

billion dollar sum he estimates the
government has been cheated out Of
in two years. The committee author
lied appropriations Immediately after
Ropers statement ROPER said coal

tax dodgers. Farmers are also under
suspicion because only 14.00O sub

PICMY PEOPLE LAZY.
But LIKE TO HUNT
WOMEN OF TRIBE AID MEN BY
INITIATING YELPING OF THE
DOGS DURING CHASE.

High up on the slopes of Mount
Mariveles, in the Philippine Islands,
dwell the last remains of an ancient
and most mysterious race-the ne
griots, or "Iittle negroes"
Scientists differ hopelessly as to
their origin and history, but the
traveller who is fortunate enough to
penetrate into their carefully hidden
villages finds the quaint little people
extremely interesting.
Though disinclined to work, the ne
grito is indefatigable in the chase.
He will hunt all day without eating
anything but the mango, or banana,
that he may seize as he rushes by.
If the dogs are scarce for any rea-
son women are pressed into service,
and these go Looping through the
brush, yelping in imitation of the
CANNES for whom they are substitute
ed.
Sometimes a beater will emerge
from the brush carrying a pig he has
encountered and killed, or, more i'm
portant still, bringing news of the
sighting of a python. In this case the
whole hunt is called in and it's ener-
gies directed to the capture of the
big snake, which, when killed, is car
ried in triumphal procession to the
village, where it furnishes feast for
all who can be gathered for the great
occasion.

Elk ON RANCHES
REPLACING CATTLE
TWELVE COLORADO MEN NOW
RAISING THE ANIMALS. COST
LESS TO FEED THEM.

If elk ranches continue to increase
in Colorado as they have in the past
ten years elk meat will become cheap
and plentiful, and can be purchased
from any butcher as readily as NUT
ton, pork or beef. At present there
are about twelve elk ranches in the
state of Colorado, and on these
ranches elk are raised, not for the
hunter, but for the butcher and ZOO
logical gardens.
Several men in Colorado have con-
Quoted elk ranches for years and
have made money out of them. Bar
rett Littletield, a rancher of ROutt
county, owns the biggest elk ranch
in northern Colorado, near the Wy
oming state line. The man began
gathering his heard years ago when
elk were plentiful in northern Colo
RADIO. He saw the inroads the hunters
were making on these animals and
so decided to secure a herd of his
own before they were all gone. Mr.
Littlefield was formerly in the cat
tie raising business, but he has given
that up for elk.
Each elk ranch has to be we'll fenc-
ed, and as elk are great jumpers the
fence has to be built high, with the
posts set fairly close together. Woven
wire is used in constructing the
fences.
Elk are easier to care for than
cattle and require very little feeding
during the winter, and the profits
from their sale are very large. Under
dOmesticated conditions the increase
of the elk is fully equal to that of
cattle. While elk meat has distinc-
tive flavor it suggests mutton rather
than beef, and at the same time it
is said that the chemical composition
IS about the same as the latter. The
hides of the elk are much more val
liable commercially than are the
hides of the steer
