Cattle Driving Declines,
 but Sheen Still Use Le9s

The western trail herd still ex- ists, but today 1t is composed of sheep and not cattle, with num- bers driven regularly exceeding the count of the most famous old trails, observes Phoenix (Ariz.) United Press writer.
 It's a faux pas, of course, to men, ton sheep and cattle in one breath (to cattleman), but the former still are featured in big drives in fact the business of sheep driv- ing has grown, while cattle are moved by rail. It's largely mat ter of very simple business.
 Cattle lose weight when driven cross-country. Cows are valuable not by the hoof but by the beef steak, with thick steaks bringing more money. The money crop of sheep is their wool, which can't be walked away.
 So today some 3OO,OOO complain. ing "woolies" are taking the long trek from southern pastures in and about the Salt river valley to north ern Arizona, where they will wait out the summer at high attitudes, whose ranges are not withered by the desert sun.
 The business of trail driving has become a big industry. The gov ernment set aside regular strips for sheep to follow as they go north and as they return south. Some make round trip of 400 miles.
 Trails followed are as old as the industry. They are picked orig finally because of advantages of feed and water, and once set by custom receive governmental sanc- tion. Homsteading or script pur- chase of land in the sheep strips" is forbidden.
 Following the drives demands alertness and sacrifice on the part of the herders. Mountain lions are not a myth, but are plentiful in parts of the sheep range. Wild dog packs are menace in the Salt river valley and may kill scores in a nights orgy. Coyotes are pres ent everywhere, vigilant to take stragglers.

Young Quail Are Active

The quail is one of the few birds that run as soon as matched. He can make short flights when he is a week old. The down on the chicks disappears when they are about twelve weeks old, and until then 1t Is almost impossible to determine their sex. From the beginning they demonstrate the independence which make them one of the most sought-after game birds in the country.

ment Ripper closed his jaws on the stern of Georgle's flannels. There was a ripping sound as he climbed over and a disappointed bulldog dropped back Into the yard.
 It Is a matter of historical detail to report that there was an ex- panse of Georgie's new silk under wear showing and 1t was bril- liant orange.
 Perceiving the look In Cousin Georgie's eye as he climbed the fence Bertie and Bertha left the vicinity in a hurry.
 Georgie set off in pursuit.
 An old man waving cane shouted: Bravo! Bravor after him, but he didn't stop.
 The chase was short, and just as Georgie was about to grasp Bertie and Bertha by their collars they turned into the high hedged ground of the First Baptist church and charged full tilt into the midst of the young peoples lawn party.
 Unerring instinct led them to Ferdy Hoyt and Mabel Porter.
 In full cry GeOrgie burst into the middle of the curious guests before he realized his whereabouts.
 He became conscious of Mabers hOtly accusing eyes.
 'Teasing little children" she cried. shame on you, Georgie!"
 IT." Georgie gulped, trying not to noticeably sit on his hands.
 The twins, quick to perceive the turn of events, began to run mad circle around the group, shrieking. Judge Blint's dog bit Georgie's pants! Judge Blint's dog bit Georgie's pants!'
 Where there had been titters be- fore there was now open laughter.
 A rasping voice penetrated the laughter.
 "What's this? Whats this?' The elderly man, who had shouted Bravo" at him came elb0wing his way through the crowd. He was Seymour Hoyt, Ferdy's grand father. He peered at Georgie with nearsighted eyes.
 Upon my wOrd," he cried, you're the young man I saw res cue those two children from Judge Blint's vicious dog"
 "Well," Georgie began, T didn't exactly"
 ''Now, now, young man." Old Sey- mour Hoyt exclaimed, there's no call for modesty over brave deed we'll done."
 He glared at the group.
 ''I doubt" he snapped, "if there's one of you would have risked life and limb as this young man did this afternoon. Such bravery is- is-"
 Hey, Mir. Hoyt," Georgie began uneasily, T."
 You shut up," Old Seymour or dered testify.
 He took Georgie by the arm.
 We'll go up to the house," he said, meanwhile glaring at the abashed lawn party. If you people will excuse us," he said, i've gen. tlemen will leave you"
 As they started away Old Sey- mour handed his large tweed cap to GeOrgie. "FOr mercy's sake, young man," he hissed, "coyer up that underwear. It's the only thing I have against you!"
