Wyoming Indians Given
Buffalo Meat for Food

Yellowstone Park, Wyo.-From
near extinction to such numbers
that Indians and relief agencies
have been donated surplus animals
for their meat supply, is the history
Of the Yellowstone park buffalo
herd, now totaling more than 1000
animals.
In 1902 official figures listed but
1876 buffalo in the world. Emerson
Hough, after a winter inspection
trip, said there were but % of the
animals in the park. That year
funds were obtained for establish
ment Of a protected herd, and by
1926 there were 764 buffalo in the
park.
Careful feeding, strict enforce
ment of protective rules and even
vaccinations were required to de-
velop the herd. In 1912, 1919. and
1922 a blood poisoning disease
threatened to wipe out the herd, but
vaccinations counteracted the cpl
demic, and since that time no Sc
rious outbreaks have taken place.
The herd now has reached such
security that the park authorities
each year Gull out the infirm, weak,
and understood animals, slaughter
them, and give the meat to Indians,
or relief agencies.

Como, with Capt. Charles w. Wei

been members of these organiza-
tions for many years, both being

Smyrna times., 1933-07-26

and 1896 in the truck group.
In addition there were 1900
tractors on farms. The above
figures are according to a tab
ulation made by the National
Automobile Chamber of Com
merce. There was a pronounc-
ed decline in automobile regis
tration. In Delaware, there
was a falling off from 1880
from 56,1O9 to 52,S51. Fig
ured on a ratio basis, there
was a car for every four per-
sons in the State, the 1880
census giving the State a pop
ulation of 238,38O. This
among other things, a
investment on the
part of our people in motor
cars and a substantial regular
of money thru
out one of the leanest years
experienced in a long time to
keep up and operate those
cars. OF the total number of
motor vehicles in Delaware
last year it is recorded that
1901 were owned in Will
mington. This was more than
One-third Of the total for the
entire State. Outside of Will
the registration was
33,840. 1t is interesting to
know that last year, as de-
pressing as business condi-
tiOns were, the State derived
revenue from automobiles ag-
gregating S2,117,546,of which
1,018,396 represented regis
tration fees and S1,O99, $50
gasoline tax. Of this amount
S861,O19 was applied to re-
tirement Of State and county
road bonds and the remainder
to highway construction,
maintenance and protection.
And SO, the motorist pays his
way and helps the State in a
way, but in return
he has the use Of one Of the
best, and best protected, high
way systems in the country.

DAIRY FARMING


in a series Of experiments,
covering a period of three
years, to definitely establish
the type Of feed best calculat-
ed to be a real milk producer,
says the Centreville Observer.
"And Alfalfa is the answer.
It has been found better than
any other farm feed for en-
abling cows to produce the
valuable white fluid in in
creasing quantities.
Timothy hay, the expert
ments showed, is a good horse
feed, but is not much good for
milk cows. A great deal Of
the low quality, weedy and
weatherered hay fed to cows,
is no better than timothy,
those who conducted the test
maintain.
I'm this feeding expert
ment, which was repeated for
three years, good timothy and
good alfalfa hays in equal
quantities were fed to two
groups Of cows. From the
beginning, alfalfa showed its
superiority in producing milk.
AS alfalfa contains more pro-
tein than timothy, it at first
was thought that protein was
the difference. Additional
protein was put in the timo-
thy ration to make up for this
deficiency but even then the
alfalfa ration made IA to -
per cent more milk.
when the timothy and alf-
alfa hays were fed without
the extra protein, expert
ments showed that the alfalfa
hay produces IS per cent
more milk.
"These results are most in
teresting and show that alf-
alfa stimulated high milk
production rather than fat
tening. Timothy does not
make the milk, but the cows
gain more weight. Some
dairymen might criticize alf-
alta when the cows produce
lots of milk, but do not get
fat, but this is one of its vir-
tues. 1t is essentially a milk
producing feed.
"The experiments showed
that the protein is important,
but that there are other
things in alfalfa that give this
stimulation to milk produc-
tion. Further Investigations
will be made to determine
whether it is minerals in the
alfalfa"

Many people admit that
honesty is the best policy but
the sad commentary is that it
