Wildebeest.
Connochoetes Gnu.

Connochoetes Gnu.
w YHAT do you think Of the
M zebra's bodyguard? These
v " looking animals are
always seen doing police
duty among Zebras. You
will find several of them stationed at
intervals In the field. What rewards
are given them we have been unable
to discover.
Many a zebra owes his life to this
efficient sentinel. Did you ever see
a more alert, wise-looking guard, or
so fierce looking q mustache? And II
so, where.
swift-footed, cleat-eyed and clever
few foes get by the watchman OF
the zebra family. He seldom permits
YOU to get within 800 feet OF ms
charges before he either gives mis-
warning whistle or his amazing whirl.
The wildebeest sexes are proudeo
with hons. You have to tell VINO
is father or mother by their sizes.
The younger generations horns are
not so close together at the base. nor
have they yet acquired the downward
and sharply upward curve. In the
older generation the horns are Ike
great helmets, and cover the top OF
| the skull. Unlike the horns OF the
antelopes, the bony cores are honey
conabed with cavities, as are those OF
oxen.
Wildebeests, often called gnus. can
hardly be called handsome. Thelr
expression is never one OF denance
or hatred. You might well describe
it as intensely interested" Their
heads are short and broad, with great.
wide. naked nuzzles, fringed with
bristly whiskers. On the neck Is
heavy, erect name Of stiff, black hairs.
| The long tail is thickly haired its en-
tire length, and Is white. The body
is a uniform color Of dark brown.
There are two well-marked species
Of wildebeest. This one is found In
the southern part Of Africa and the
blue one in the eastern part.
1t takes the open country to satisfy
them. Animals with perfect eyesight
and swift feet prefer tnese sltuaClols.
They want to know what Is going on
about them.
When a sentinel wildebeest finds a
foe approaching, and has reason to
believe 1t bodies no good, LOUD snort
Is broadcast or a shril whistle is
sent over the air. Implicit faith is
shown in the defender by the instant
| obedience of the zebras.
But the wildebeests do not run.
They await the foe. Several Of them
will wheel in endless circles and per-
form the most intricate Of maneuvers.
The great, shaggy bulls will caper
and prance. kick up their heels and
then gather in circles again. The
swift lashing Of their tails, as they
cut the air, sends out whining sound.
If they fight each other they come
''head-on," the shock Lringing them

It Costs Much to Take This
Journey.
BY FLORENCE LA GANKE.

TT WAS at Hannah's home that
Il the group first learned the game
called "Up the River" To play it a
stock of counters or matches is re-
quired and two decks Of cards are
needed.
The dealer gives each player, in
cluding himself, IS counters or
matches. Then he deals to all the
players, but himself, five cards. face
up, placed directly in front OF each
player.
Then, with the remainder Of the
pack In front Of him the dealer an
nounces that he Is going up the river
8 or or IL or any desired number
Of miles. The number Is best not too
small nor too high.
He turns up the first card, saying
as he does so, II am now up ! mile.
Any player having a card with the
same number. regardless Of suit, that
he has turned up, must pay the dealer
one counter.
Next he goes up 2 miles and any
player having a card with the same
number, though not necessarily OF he
same suit, pays him two counters.
Once the dealer has reached his
destination he announces that he is
now going down the river. He turns
over the first card. Any player who
has that card now receives from the
dealer one Of the dealers counters.
And so it goes until the dealer has
been both up and down the river and
Is back where he started. Should any
player run out Of counters he must
buy more from the banker. Should
the banker run out of them he makes
q record Of his borrowing and repays
them next round. The player at deal
er's right is the next banker OF
traveller.
The excitement always grows high
as the number Of miles away from
home increases. To have to pay only
one counter is not so bad, but II q
player should have q card with
similar value or number when the
traveller is up the eleventh mile, the
cost of the trips Is rather high.

Dairy Products.

T YAvE you ever tried to milk a
- COW? I did, once or twice,
during my boyhood. Then I
decided that one Of my older
brothers was welcome to keep
the Job. When milking machines be-
gan to come into use I was much In
favor Of them.
We had only one COW, but it seemed
more than enough work to feed her
and water her, clean the stable, and
see that she did not escape from the
pasture and get into cornfield.
On sunny days flies bothered the
COW, and she switched her tail in or
der to slay them. Every now and
then she missed the flies ana hit the
one who was milking her. My brother
tried to stop that by tying brick to
her tail; and it worked very well until
a strong switch Of the tail brought the
brick flying in his direction. After
that think he gave up the brick idea
Those little memories make me
think Of the mighty work which goes
on in order that city folk shall have
bottles Of milk at the doorway each
morning. Some cows, to be sure, are
kept just to supply milk for the fam
lily, but thousands of farmers have
large herds, and If the COWS in their
herds are half as troublesome as that
old COW Of ours, am sorry for the
farmers.
Canada's greatest cattle areas are
in Southern Ontario and Southern
Quebec, although millions of the ami
mails are raised on plains west oi
Winnipeg.
Twenty-Five million milk cows were
on American farms last year. This
was an average Of one milk COW for
every five persons in the United
States.
