Elephants, elephants and still more
elephants. Were it possible to con-
struct a pair of scales large enough
to weigh the vast herd of big-eared
giants that are being carried by the
Ringling Brothers and Barnum a.
Bailey Combined Shows, it would be
found that they would "tip the beam"
at something like million pounds.
But no such scales are to be had.
When the great, new circus opened
its season at the Madison Square
Garden, in New York City, this
spring there was not room to house
the herd. Big as is the building, the
space allotted to the menagerie could
not accommodate all the elephants. So
almost half of them had to be left
at the winter quarters. Now that
the circus is on tour and exhibiting
under its new and specially con-
structed tents, all the elephants ac-
company it. When Ringling Broth

George w. Dickinson, Secretary

declares, and the main emphasis of
the exposition is to be directed at
what he terms the vital problem of
food production"

Michigan farms will be depopulated
The census figures show us that New
England's deserted farms are coming
TO our own state. In our most fertile
lands, we find farm after farm vacant
and the other are cultivated only to

All these elephants are performing
elephants. They represent the cream
of elephantine education. Thirty of
them are presented in single num-
ber in the arenic program. So far
does this depart in bigness from all
other attempts at such presentations
that for the first time in the history
Of the circus the great hippodrome
track as well as the rings and stages
are used in the elephant number.
And at the termination of the many
group representation all the herds
are brought together in one stupend-
Gus ensemble and merged into an act
performed along one entire side of
the main-tent and which has been
termed quarter of million pound
elephant act" Nothing approaching
this has even been attempted in the
history Of the circus. Exhibitions
