There is no railroad from Key West,
to Cuba, and could not well be, as
nearly 200 miles OF ocean intervene.
What Mr.. Flagler did was to build a
railroad along the eastern coast Of
Florida to its southern extremity, and
thence on piles and artificial viaducts
to Key West, and to provide for the
transportation of loaded trains both
ways between Key West and Cuba by
huge ocean ferry boats constructed and
equipped specially for the service.
There are no figures at hand as to the
cost of the work done by Mr.. Flag
Ter. 1t has been of great commercial
value.

Stories From Hunters.

Wild animals which prey upon live
stock are only good when dead"
Then they may serve q really useful
purpose. If their skins are properly
cured, tanned and made into fur gar
ments.
Predatory animals cause losses to
sheep herds in Utah and neighbour
states of 10000 head annually. Be
sides the foodstuffs thus destroyed.
this means a loss Of about 100000
pounds of wool.
Two wolves at Ozona, Tex, killed
70 head of sheep in two weeks.
In New Mexico 3 per cent Of the
cattle are destroyed by predatory ami
mails. In addition to about 1880
head of cattle thus killed, the animals
destroy about 10000 sheep, loss Of
100000 pounds of meat and 1,320,-
600 pounds of wool. The total loss to
the state each year from this source
amounts to about $2,715,250.
States and livestock associations
are cooperating with the department
of agriculture In Its campaign In the
Western states suffering the greatest
damage from predatory wild animals,
by liberal contributions of funds, as
well as services of additional hunters.
A biological survey hunter in Arizo-
ma recently killed mountain lion, on
the trail of which were found nine
head of cattle 1t had killed.
One stock-killing grizzly bear along
the Pecos river. In New Mexico, &C
counted for $1,000 worth Of cattle in
FIVE months before being dispatched
by hunter of the biological survey.
1t had killed 80 head of cattle In this
time. and In the previous year is re-
ported to have killed 90 head In the
same district.

more numerous than the mountain
lions and bears, judging from the
numbers destroyed by hunters of the
biological survey. During part Of the
last summer and fall eight mountain
lions and q bears paid the death pen
atty for their marauding, while In the
same time more than 1000 bobcats and
more than 10000 coyotes were exter-
minated.
Had these animals been allowed to
go about their nefarious work unmo-
Tested through the year, and through
the rest of their natural lives, they
would have taken the usual toll of our
meat supply accordingly. The pelt Of
each animal secured means not only
one less enemy Of livestock opera
lions, but the gain Is continuing, since
not only Is the career of one predatory
animal thus ended but also that Of all
his possible progeny. Each one killed
means one predatory animal less to
perpetuate his race.
In two and q half years the biologi-
cal survey hunters have killed more
than $4,000 predatory animals. Fig
uring the losses these would have In
flicted, as mentioned above, the work
of the hunters has effected an annual
saving in live stock Of more than
$3,840,000. in addition to this the fed
eral treasury has benefited to the ex'
tent of nearly $4,000 from the sale OF
skins of the animals secured. The
hunters are not allowed to accept
bounties, and all skins taken become
the property of the government. Some
Of these are deposited In the National
museum for exhibition and study pur'
poses, and the rest are sold and the
proceeds turned into the treasury de
partment.

The city purchaser of meat does not
always realize the really serious diff
culties to be overcome before choice
cut Of steak or a cheaper stewing piece
can be brought to market. He buys
what he wants or can afford, always
marveling at the increasing cost. II
the supply Of food were increased by
$500, 100000 worth, the cost would be
correspondlngly less, and when the
purchaser Is informed that this value
of meat and other fOodstuffs Is wan
tonly destroyed every year in the Unit
ed States he Is likely to sit up and take
notice. More, he is likely to investi-
gate the cause of the waste and to
help stop it, If possible. Foodstuffs
worth these millions of dollars are de-
stroyed every year through the raw
ages of wild predatory animals and Of
small grain-eating and crop-destroying
rodents.
Unlike the hordes of injurious in
sects which prey on the crops almost
unseen, these animals are large enough
to be COPIED with singly and at a COM
paratively small cost.
Yearly Damage by Wolf.
Wolves, for instance, are caught one
at time, either in the trap or by
poison or with powder and shot. These
animals do not prowl the country over
night after night with only an occa-
sional meal once or twice a week, but
like other beasts must obtain their
food more or less regularly. AS live
stock are especially choice morsels for
them, the destruction each animal In.
flicts on a herd is enormous. 1t does
not require any stretch of the imagi-
nation, therefore, to grasp the fact that
each wolf destroys annually an aver.
age of 81 900 worth of live stock. The
growing boy could not be SO voracious
Therefore, every wolf destroyed means
q years supply of food for several boys
or grown men. Multiply this $1,000
destruction of good food by the total
number OF wolves In the country and
we have large part of the $500. 600.
600 worth of food taken from domesti
Gated focks and herds.
In the summer and early fall of last
year hunters of the bureau of biologi

culture killed nearly 200 wolves, more
than half of them In Texas, one Of the
greatest meat-producing states of thu
Union Wyoming, Arizona and New
Mexico are the better of for having
lost In this. campaign about 60 of these
marauders.
Damage by Other culprlts.
But wolves are not the only culpriti

estimated by officials of the department
of agriculture that mountain lions an(
