They had to be kept up for protection
against time when it would cost the
usual amount to get specimens of this ami

in the way of the animal dealer he stih
was far from growing rich at the business,
and none ever has gained great wealth
One thing which helped the Germans
greatly in gaining such hold on this wild
animal business was the fact that the big
German steamship companies, like the
North German Lloyd and the Hamburg
American, as we'll as the smaller lines about
the globe always backed up Hagenbeck and
Ruhe and the others by accepting shipments
of animals anywhere for anywhere at rea-
sonabe rates and caring for this live
freight to the best of their ability. They
would even build comfortable box stalls on
deck for big animals, and their ships sail
ing TO ports where animal shipments might
be expected carried men whose sole duties
were to look after animals.
Few British steamship lines will do any,
thing whatever for the wild animal people,
ano most American lines fatty refuse such
shipments. DR.. Hornaday tells of time
when an American line caused him great an
noyance by refusing to accept for trans por-
tation to New York zone little leopard which
wouldn't have made anybody any trouble"
The animal Gagged and on the dock. and
everybody connected with its purchase and
shipment supposed all arrangements com
plete, but at the last moment the company
refused fatty to receive it, and its owners
all but lost it before a steamer could be
found which would carry it across the At
lantic.
Experiences like these have made Dr.
Hornaday very chary of trusting wild ami
mails to steamship people, though he speaks
Of one British line which has used him
mighty we'll. He insists, however, that the
seller of any animal to the Bronx Zoo de-
liver it in New York, and has consistently
refused to do business with one British con-

more profitable and better fun in the end
than idly watching the days pass in the
stale, old-fashioned way Your latest
twentieth century girl is a hustler She
works because she likes it, not because she
feels there is any special virtue in it.
Then the girls who must earn their living
through the summer months are Just as
happy as the schoolgirls, teachers or girls
who stay at home. If you spend the year
at machine or sewing at a trade the abso-
lutte advantage of getting away from the
city and of working at something entirely
different, with the chance of meeting a new
set of friends, is joy and rest in itself.
Many girls who find the drain on their
health a serious problem because of close,
interior work in the city have found work
on farms real blessing To girls who
face the summer ordinarily as a period Of
idleness because of the seasonable trades
which they follow, this work offered by the
Land Army provides real chance at steady
employment all through the year
At the annual state convention many plans
will be discussed for extending the policies
and planning the programme for the New
York State Woman's Land Army for the
coming season AS this promises to be the
most significant year the United States has
ever seen in the problem of employing
woman labor, and since the increased har-
vest is a world necessity the coming con-
vention carries national as well as state
wide importance.
Among the we'll known women who are
furthering this great back to the landn
movement, as represented by the officers
and board of directors of the New York state
Woman's Land Army, are Mrs. Thomas r.

German dealers to guarantee this with
every sale an immense advantage to
them in competing for this trade, especially
with the English.
Steamers other than of the regular lines
are seldom desirable carriers of animals.
Their officers may mean we'll by the ami
mails, but their business and that of the
crew is to operate the ship and. especially in
a time of emergency on the sea, their live
freight is apt to be neglected and die.
Transporting animals is not as easy as it
might seem, anyway. DR.. Hornaday tells

supply of animals pretty We'll; SC when "a
fine giraffe was brought into town he cabledk
me to know if we would like it, On his
description we bought it, but cabled him
not to ship it in care of any steamer peo-
pie, not to ship it at all, in fact, until he
could send some one with it to care for it
all through the voyage
We'll, he tried and tried TO find some-
body to send with the giraffe but without
success. No native would take the job, and
probably none could have been found suffi-
GENTLY worldly wise to have gone through
with it, anyhow At length friend of the
consul's who was coming home turned up
and agreed to care for the giraffe We had
sent on a drawing of the proper crate for
the animal, and l wish you could have seen
the crate they made and which he was in
when he got here.

i9g a crate to accommodate the giraffes
body and carrying up side of it in
a peak to take care of his head and
neck, they had carried the whole crate up
squarely. 1t looked like the Astor Trust

"Of course, this was an awkward thing
to handle with the animal in it, especially
there is harbor at Daku and freight
has to be lightered out to ships in the
roadstead. Ships have no regular calling
days there, and they have to simply await
their appearance and get anything for
shipment abroad hurriedly in the short
time they remain. One appeared unex-
pectedly soon, but by dint of involving the
whole population of the town, native aud
white, they got that giraffe onto the
lighter and out to the vessel. where
compliant captain aided them all he could.
1t was a day long to be remembered in
the annals of the place.

years that he had mistaken the date, what

Up to then the two leading concerns

Africa is the wild animal paradise, and
especially German East Africa, and Hagen
beck had this continent thoroughly COW
cred with his agents. The more important
Of them were in Pretoria, Natal, Cape
Town, Zanzibar and Cairo, but no trading
post of any consequence on African coast
or railroad was without q Hagenbeck repre-
sentative. One OF their men named Mayer
made his headquarters in Zanzibar for
years and periodically fitted out safaris to
90 into the bush after animals. Large num-
bers would be captured and the outfit
would start for the coast again. MANY of
the animals would die on the way, but
Mayer usually arrived at salt water with
enough to make up a shipment to Hamburg.
Not all of the Hagenbeck agents pursued
this plan. Indeed, it was far more usual
for them to buy animals offered by hunters
OF farmers than to go after them themselves.
and 10 this end the Hamburg concern main
tanned agents in every country in the
world where exhibition animals are to be
obtained especially in India and South
America.

The expense Of getting wild animals from
their native haunts is, Of course, very heavy.
Outside of the large costs Of capturing
them, the bulk of those taken die before
they can be got to a shipping point and
others die en- route to their destination. If
out of a dozen specimens taken by an ex-
petition nine die before they can be got
ready for sale the remaining three must
bear the entire cost Of getting them
all and must pay some profit as
well, if conditions permit. Before the
war prices were fairly we'll standardized,
bat all these things were taken into con-
aideration in fixing them. 1t might be
thought that the law of supply and demand
would operate to lower prices sometimes
