Eyes, that's Mussolini roaring Mr..
Mckillop said. as we entered the place.
"Mussolini is lion from Ethiopia. He
was captured alive there and has always
resented it. He is the meanest. fercest
brute I've ever seen and killerp
Fortunately it was feeding time. Ne
groes entered with huge chunks of beef.
All the lions in the house, nearly
dozen of them. began roaring at once.
What racket! The Io-pound slabs of
raw beef were tossed to the front of the
cages and the lions pulled their rations
through the bars.
I'VE have I'll lions now on the place.
We feed them 200 pounds of beet a
day-six days week. On the seventh
they are given medicines. good for their
inwards. The small range cattle of
South-Florida are cheap and often a
carcass won't weigh more than 200
pounds. But the beef makes fine lion
food" Mr.. Mckillop explained.

There is Always a Good
NlsZ3 Ss5 for LIONS

1t takes only 100 days for lion cubs
to come into the world. There are from
one to three cubs, as rule, but mostly
we have twins. Because we take the
youngsters away from their mothers at
two months after they're born. you can
see we average nearly two litters per
year to the lioness. The lions do their
partp' Mr. Mckillop explained while
conducting the STATE FARMER reporter
about the premises.
Some distance from the imposing
looking entrance and African veldt"
lion caves in the rock, the lion farmers
have a Zion house" which is just a
wooden building, full of steel cages,
where they keep the imam supply" of
lions while additional quarters are be-
ing prepared out in the quarry-pits.
Mussolini From Ethiopia
At present only few lions are roam
ing around in the open, so to speak.

quartered in cages in the lion house.

Not responsible for persons reaching
over guard rail-" When Mussolini
stuck his huge paws some distance out
OF his cage, through the bars, showing
his claws, the reason for the sign was
evident
Other interesting lions in the house
include Princess, a sleek lioness, quar-
tered next to Mussolini. She pays no
attention whatever to his growlings and
fierce display. Nell, huge fat lioness,
has had I'll cubs already and soon will
have more. Walter, brother of the
lion who appears in the movies to in
troduce films made by motion picture
producer, is just as big as Mussolini, but
he is peaceful. gentle and quiet.
Henry Pringle, colored lion attend
ant. says "all de lions are gentle, boss. "
But Manager McKillop says Henry"
is the only negro they ever had who
didn't arouse the lions to a fury-the
moment the darkey was spotted! Seems
the big cats always have disliked ne
groes, Henry excepted.
Back in the "veldt" country, beside
the waterfall, and seated under cocoa
nut palm tree, Mr.. McKillop disclosed
that he had to pay as much as $500 to
$500 a piece for some of his lions, at
the start. He said most of his young
STEERS sell for $500 to $500 each, depend
ing upon their appearance. He expects
the lion farm to pay-both from the
standpoint Of producing lions and be-
cause thousands of people pay him to see

There were dozens of peo-
pie in the lion house watch
ing the lions eat; hearing
their roaring. When the
"roasts" were handed out
the huge cats became silent
and fell to eating-all but
Mussolini. This huge, dark
named lion, Mussolini, held
his portion of beef between
his paws and roared fiercely
at the humans just out of
his reach. Every few mo-
ments with a roar he would
charge toward the front of
the cage. Mussolini acted
much as a cross dog acts with
a bone. After Showing off,
for fifteen minutes this big
lion finally ate his dinner.

Sleeps Under Waterfall
Mr.. McKillop pointed to the ''lucky"
lions which roaming around in the lion
pits, near at hand Then he pointed to
the artificial waterfall.
II sleep under the waterfall-in d
little apartment we've built there at the
top of the stairs. The lions wake ne
up nearly every night when they get 4
roaring. That's part of lion farming,
he observed.
David Kirkbride, the keeper, is one of
the most experienced lion men in the
business He was brought to Fort Lau-
derdale by Mr.. McKillop to give the
lions expert care.
The Fort Lauderdale lions are as neat
and clean as an old maids pet Persian
cat. They are, actually, in the pink of
condition. Cages are kept clean and
sanitary. And of course those lions who
are fortunate enough TO have quarters
in the "veldt" section of the farm are
living almost as they would live in At
RIGA. In time Mr.. McKillop expects
to have all of his beasts living naturally,
that way.

The Mckillop- Hutton lion farm is To-
Gated two miles north from Fort Lau-
derdale, in Broward County. right on
the highway into Miami. so thousands
of tourists stop each year to see the lion
farm in operation. The huge cats don't
seem to mind the attention. The lion
es>es go right on raising huge families
of cubs, while the lions strut majestic
ally up and down their enclosures, roar
ing their defiance to all mankind.
Eyes, we raise lions for the market.
There is always good market for lions.
Geological gardens, circuses, owners of
animal shows, and others. buy them for
good prices. Right now we are unable
to supply ten orders for youngsters. And
if, in addition to our regular business of
lion farming, the public insists upon be-
ing let in to look at our operations,
isn't it good idea to charge them few
dimes head? Well. we do that and
we find that both raising lions and let
ting tourists pay you to see lions raised
are proftable!' is the way j. H. Nc
kiIlop explained his novel venture.
In Natural Surroundings
The Fort Lauderdale, Florida lion
farm is an imposing looking place. There
is high wall around the outside and
as one enters, it becomes evident that
the lions are quartered in several old
rock quarry pits. The great gaping holes
in the earth (rathcr in the rocky make
the finest quarters imaginable for lions.
Even the largest and strongest of the
King of Beasts can't leap up over the
side OF these pits. And pools of beau-
tiful. clear water in the lowest parts of
the quarry-holes. add much to the beau
~ of the farm. Mr. Mckillop has
built huge, artificial waterfall which
comes tumbling down over a rocky bed
between the largest of the old quarries.
Huge lions strut about below-they are
not caged-and onlookers are told that
some of the scenery is typical of the
African veldt.

Camp Life an Excellent
Way TO Spend Vacation
BY LOGAN CLENDENING, M. ID.

BY LOGAN CLENDEN1NG, M. ID.
HAVE just seen a group of lit
tie girls marching along by the
side Of the ocean. They had been
singing a song from away down
the beach, and as they got near
me and passed me / found they
were singing about what a
whale of a fine camp they were at
tending, and how it could knock
the socks off any other camp in
baseball. They were a right little,
tight little group Of amalgamated
interests. They were all compact
of the spirit Of cooperation.
One of the fine and wholesome
changes in modern life is tie prac-
tice of sending boys and girls away
to camp for a month or more in
the summer.
About a million boys and girls
in America take advantage Of this
health measure. And counting
hours Of sleep, the time they spend
in camp amounts to the time spent
in school for a year.
This country is especially blessed
In climate for outdoor life in the
summer. There are thousands OF
places still sufficiently primeval
with weather conditions not toe
hot or cold, where a month to six
weeks you can be assured of con-
tinued good weather most of the
time, with a minimum of rainy
days. I know of no other country
where the same conditions prevail
In most parts of Europe the camp
ers have to be very hardy to en-.
dure the wet and cold, even if any
secluded spots could be found.
Preparation Important
But since so much time is spent
in camp. it is all the more neces-
sary to see that i: is well spent

Preparation for camp is just az
important as preparation for
school. have made a point, in an
earlier article this year, to call at
tention to the necessity for anti
typhoid vaccination before enter.
ing camp. The same applies to
diphtheria and smallpox vaccina-
ton.
The medical examination and
physical fitness test as q prelimi-
nary to camp life is a most val
liable thing at exactly this age.
And it should point the way to the
camp director for the individual
ization of camp activities which
each child needs.
The development Of strong,
healthy bodies is a great advan-
tage in protecting against the ex-
posture of cold and other infections
and the strain Of a year Of school
life.
But all these activities must be
individualized. Some of the camp.

Others need the emphasis placed
on rest. In some instances, an ex-
ira lunch in mid-morning and mid
afternoon is necessary to attain
proper physical fitness. In others.
dietary restriction may bring the
fat boy or fat girl home at the
proper weight.
They should all be trained in
variety of sports. An adolescent
should be skilled in half a dozen
sports so that he can win the good
will of the gang, and not make q
nuisance of himself by his inepti-
tude. The group spirit is a splen-
did fruit of this camp life, and
makes for healthier spirit in the
America of tomorrow.
Physically, mentally, morally and
socially, our summer camps are inn

DOUBLE DUMMY SLAMS
CTMPT

YESTERDAY we saw how any
expert could make grand slam
on the hand shown, by normal
play of a double squeeze, provided
he sat East and had an opening
lead of heart, with a contract of
7-No Trumps. West, who sent in
the hand, complained that his part
ner went down a trick. West
thought that he should have been
allowed to play the hand at
diamonds, which he thinks he
could have made.
