He has recently put some of his OBJ

communication from the editor of
Field K Stream informs him that his
article on "Rulfed Grouse" has been
accepted by the natural history depart

This article submitted to Field and

ana food habits of the small game Of

season on partridge and rabbits, sew

sent to Washington for analysis.
Wallace is taking advantage of the
courses in natural science offered in
the local highschool and no doubt will

SUPERIORITY OF PUREBRED LIVE
STOCK SHOWN BY RECENT INQUIRY

prompted him to acquire purebreds
was the need for more income. He
reasoned that ownership of purebreds
was not the proverbial wealthy mans
diversion, but the poor mans necessity.
He obtained the best foundation stock
within his means and gave Ii good
care; it increased his returns 100 per
cent.
While there are numerous similar
cases and frequent greater successes,
the general averages mentioned are
presented as the best indication of
profits to be reasonably expected.
Briefly, good purebreds are more eff
cient than other stock. but their earn
ing power in each case depends on two
chief factors-O Their own quality,
and (2) the human factor, especially
skill in management. The evidence
gathered by the Department shows
that livestock owners are becoming
more and more insistent on records
of production as means of distin-
gushing desirable purebreds from
those of less merit.
The inquiry shows that for the most
part purebred animals of good type
are readily obtainable. But special
requirements or a desire for the less
common breeds generally involve some
difficulties and higher prices.
About 90 per cent of the purebred
livestock owners reporting to the De-
partment were satisfied both with the
purebreds themselves and the progeny,
except when they expressed the de-
sire for still better stock. AS one breed
er explained, the desire for improve
ment is necessary for progress. A
few had unfortunate experience with
purebreds of inferior quality and pofat-
ed out the need for making selections
with great care. Practically all re-
ports agreed on the principle that su-
perior quality among purebreds them
selves is invariably worth a higher
cost.
Numerous sidelights on the raisihg
of improved live stock under pracJi-
cal farm conditions and through differ
emf periods, including last years period
of depression, have been obtained from

Indiana Small Boy.

When Governor McCray and others
boarded an interurban to visit the
new reformatory site at Pendleton
they found the car already well filed.
The governor sat down by a small
boy from Fortville and a moment
later asked him to exchange seats
with another member of the party so
that they could continue a conyersa-
ton. Shortly afterward the lads

was the governor he had accommo-
dated.
The incident made an impression
and when the boy reached home he
boasted to his father that he had seen
the governor and had spoken to him.

Better conformation and quality, in
