The Pacing Tiger.

REHIND the iron bars the tiger
- stretched himself and yawned.
Goodness" he sighed, Il believe I'm
getting fat! And it's no wonder
cooped up in this little pen the way I
am, with nothing to do but eat and
sleep. I've tried to diet, but the keeper
gets worried whenever I do. just
can't bear to worry him, especially
when he has nice big piece of meat
for me-"
The tiger looked at himself in the
glass at the end of his cage. I'm not
exactly getting fat" he said, "but I'm
not as trim looking as I used to be
when I ran wild. It's exercise that
keeps you fit, that's what! And I
don't get enough. But I don't know
what I can do about it. I-e surely
can't exercise much, cooped up in this
little pen"
Here, here, Felix" called the keeper,
poking a large. juicy piece of meat
through the bars to the tiger. Here's
your dinner Now go to it.
Il don't believe I'll eat it." thought
the tiger. well, not all of it, any
way" But when he had taken his
first bite he found the meat so good
that he never stopped until it was
all gone. We'll, guess Ill take an
other nap, now" he sighed as he lay
down on the floor of his cage.
Look at that fat, lazy old tiger,
cried a boy. poking his nose as close to
the bars of Felix's cage as was safe.
With a growl the tiger made dash
for the boy on the other side Of the
bars.
"Nasty thing!" he sputtered. I'm
not fat at all. I know I'm not" That
day fewer people came to see the tiger,
and he had to admit to himself that
he was not so slim and graceful as he
had been. Besides, he didn't feel as
well as he had when he was free to
run and Jump in the jungle.
TITS exercise need" he groaned.
MY coat feels tight, but, Of course,
it may have shrunk. have an idea !
If walk back and forth the length
of my cage enough times, I'll get just
as much exercise as If I were out in
the jungle walking long distance"

New Forest Station.

TAKING advantage of the excellent
opportunities offered by the forest
conditions in the Rocky Mountain
States, the Forest Service has estab-
lished an experimental station at Fort
Collins, Colo, with Dr.. Richard E.
McArdle in charge
The territory to be served includes
Colorado, Wyoming and parts of West
ern Kansas. Nebraska and South Da-
kota. Although headquarters will be
at Fort Collins, Colo.-in cooperation
with the State College of Agriculture,
where desirable educational and labor
atory facilities are available in agri-
culture and foresty-there will be field
work in many localities in the five
States.
The Rocky Mountain region is one
with complex forest and range prob
lens, according to the Forest Service
1t includes about 100000 acres Of
forest land with stands of lodgepole
pine, Engelman spruce, ponderosa pine
and Douglas fir, on which studies Of
proper and adequate forest manage
ment are urgently needed. Within the
territory of the station there are 1885,
100000 acres of range lands, support
ing an important live stock industry
and valuable wild life resources. The
development of range management
methods which will restore and main
tain the grass and other range forage
productivity is highly important in
view of accentuated depletion during
the 1884 drought. Forest and range
influence studies will be among the
first activities of the new station. The
recent severe floods in the Denver and
Colorado Springs area and the serious
erosion following depletion of the grass
and other vegetative cover emphasized
the urgency of these studies. The in
formation will be put to immediate
use in handling the Denver watershed
and other municipal watershed areas,
and in successful watershed manage
ment in general.
DR.. McArdle has had varied ex-
perience in forestry. He was on the
staff of the Pacific Northwest forest
experiment station from 1924 until
1884, when he was IN charge of re-
search in both forest management and
forest fire control. He was principally
responsible for the development of sew
eral special instruments used in fire.

years ago, when some plants from
Japan were brought into New Jersey
and planted. 1t is believed that some
of the grubs of the japanese beetle
were living in the soil around the roots
of those plants. and that when the
plants were set out che grubs devel-
oped into beetles, and have been in
creaSing in numbers ever since.
The full-grown. adult japanese
beetle is about the size of the nail of
a mans little finger. Its colvr is cop
perry brown on the wing covers. and
green on the rest of its body. Along
each side. from about the middle of
the body to the rear end, Is row of
white spots. These white spots are
the first things to look for if you think
you have found Japanese beetle.
Even if the insect you are Examining
has the spots, it may not be Japanese
beetle, but if it does not have them.
then you may be sure you have some
other kind of creature.
The adult beetles are out rom June
to September. They spend the day
eating all sorts of vegetable matter.
leaves, flowers and fruit. and there are
not many kinds Of plants that they
will not feed on.
At night they go down into the
ground, and it is then that the female
beetles lay their eggs. The eggs hatch
into little white grubs (called larvae
and the grubs eat the roots of grass
and other plants. The grubs stay
in the ground all Winter and in the
Spring change into beetles thus start
ing a new generation, which does the
same thing over again.

Looping across the grass of his pasture
He stood still and watched. Pretty
soon this rabbit hoped up to the
inclosure of the Flemish giants and
there was a great deal of nose-smelling
through the wire netting. Then the
wild rabbit hoped OF.
Next day he came again and dug a
hole under the Flemish giants cage
and went right inside their pen. Fhe
wild rabbit began TO fight with the
male Flemish, ard fur flew wildly
until William ran down and separated
them and took the cottontail ut
When the visitor was free he turned
and scooted across country for the
bridge over the creek.
William checked up on him and he
proved to be one of Arts pets. For
several days at a time the cottontail
is content to remain in his home
hutch. Then he wriggles his way out
and calls on the Raynes' rabbits
