Tiger-Hunting Elephants

Not all elephants are qualified for

the elephants back and forth in n

sporting rajahs generally maintain
private menageries. When they be-
come accustomed to the smell of these
animals, a tiger is chained to a post
in an open space, with a leash care
fully regulated to limit the length of
his leaps. The mahouts then force
the pupl-elephant to approach as near
the post as safety allows and to re-

Where soils are either too loose to

too impermeable to allow ready trans
mission of water through them, the
border irrigation method succeeds re-
markably well. This method has been
