LITTLE CLAMOR IN
BUFFALO SHOOTING
Modern Version of Hunt Il
More Like Slaughter.

Washington. Buffalo still are
hunted in the West.
Though the hunt Of today draws
sportsmen and sportswomen from
every part OF the world, it is q
mere ghost Of the old-time buffalo
hunt when Indians drove their
mustangs among the stampeding
neros and shot their arrows into
the sides Of as many bison as they
could overtake. The stampeding
nerds have vanished into thin ira
dition.
Today's method Of hunting buf-
falo has been brought to the atten-
ton OF writer's who are preparing
articles for the American Guide.
the forthcoming travel handbook of
ton.
The hunt is held generally in jan
aary. Its setting is House Rock
valley, a geological pocket on the
edge OF kaibab National forest in
the Grand Canyon district of north
ern Arizona.
The Arizona buffalo herd is the
only one In the United States which
Is not fenced in, though the natural
barriers constitute. an ADEQUATE
eneck to prevent straying. The
state Game department of Arizona
founded the herd with a hundred
animals in 1927.
When this years hunt was held
ON January 20, there were 100 buff
1alo on the range. The conditions
under which the animals live are
excellent and, if allowed to breed
without interference, they would
soon be too numerous for the avail
able grazing. An attendant, who is
an expert in the care of buffalo.
lives on the range and watches over
the herd. The animals, in spite of
their freedom, are far from wild
and regard men more with curiosity
than fear.
When the time comes for the an
nual hunt, the attendant decides on
which animals are to be killed md
points them out to the hunters.
Each hunter stalks the animal as
signed him in any way he desires.
While horses and even automobiles
have been used, most sportsmen
prefer to approach their quarry on
foot. AS practically all of the per-
sons permitted to take part in the
slaughter are expert shots, the ami
mails are not caused to suffer I'M
duly.
Buffalo heads, hides and meat
are highly valued trophies n d
probably have much to do with at
tracing sportsmen. The hunt is
open both to residents and non
residents. While most of those who
ask permission to join the hunt are
from Arizona, every state n d
nearly every part of the world is
usually represented among them.

HOT WEATHER ADDS
MILES TO HIGHWAYS
Increases Length by Five
Feet in Mile.

Washington, D. c. That travel
objective which to some automobile
drivers seems so far away when
the thermometer is registering
above 100 degrees is really farther
than it is in cold weather.
Scientific studies show that when
Old Sol is bearing down his hard
est the motorist covering "mile"
travels five feet farther than when
cold weather prevails. This is due;
says the national highway confer
ence, to the expansion of road sur
face under heat.
According to the conference, an
extreme heat wave "adds" 100
miles to the total mileage Of sur
faced roads in the United States.
Warren Van Dyke, Pennsylvania
secretary Of highways, estimates
seven miles are added" by heat
to the roads in his state.
Makes Study Of Streets.
The conference also reports that
for the first time a dependable es-
innate Of the total mileage of streets
in cities Of the United States has
been made. Streets in towns and
cities with more than $500 popu-
tation have a total length Of 190.-
09o miles, according to a study.
II q motorist were to travel over
every mile of those streets he would
drive approximately $4,000 miles
farther than if he travelled over
every mile of high-type surfaced
highways in the country. The total
area of city streets is more than
1000 square miles, approximating
the area of Rhode Island.
The American Automobile asso-
citation has announced that it will
demand repeal of the federal auto
motive excise taxes when congress
sional committees begin studying
revisions of the tax structure soon.

Ancient Art.
Bellmaking is an art with CEN
turtles of traditions behind il. and
1t is an art, moreover, toward the
attainment of which there is no
short cut. That is why there are
80 few notable bellfoundries in the
world. Modern industrial reyolu-

has it overlooked it. It has aided

the sandpits where they afterwards
remain buried for weeks before anv
attempt is made to uncover them.
This is because their cooling must
be very gradual and steady. Anv
attempt to hasten the cooling would
wreck weeks Of labor and cause
endless financial loss.
Tuning the Bells.
One OF the most interesting proc
esses in bell making is the tuning
OF the bells. The heavier the bell
the deeper and more resonant is its
note, and when it is remembered
that every bell has five separate
and distinct notes, it will be realized
what a delicate operation this is.

Origin Of Beer Making

The origin Of beer making is lost
IN antiquity. Probably the ancient
Egyptians we're the first civilized
people to engage in brewing, and
barley wine or beer is believed
TO have been known in that coun-
try as early as 5000 B. c. Herodo-
tus ascribes the invention to the
goddess Isis. Ale or beer was never
used to any extent in Greece or
Italy, partly owing to the abundance
OF wine there, but Xenophon men
uons 1t as being used among the
inhabitants of Armenia, and the
Gauls were also acquainted with il
In early times. It was in common
use in Germany in the time of
Tacitus.
