INSECT AS AGENT OF DESTINY
Theories to Account for Death. of
Enormous Creatures That Once
Roamed the Earth.
e i
To account for the death of those
enormous creatures which once roamed
our western country and peopled its
swamps and forests, the older gégolo
gists devised convenient theo¥fes,
such as changes of climate, volcanic
disturbances, warfare among the Spe
cles.
As information accumulated, it be
came harder and harder to make the
theories fit the case. Given, time and
animal life adapts itself to changes of
climate. Movements of the earth are
seldom so widespread that flight can
not be taken from a disturbed area to
one of safety. If giant lizard fought
mountainous mammal, why did-the sur
vivor go? ;[‘heory. it was seen, must
be in keeping with the law of probabil.
ities. A new and more reasonable
hypothesis has recently been brought
forward.
At the time that nature was experi
menting with monsters, there existed a
lake in Colorado. It was surrounded
with forests which were tenanted by
hosts of insects. A volcano buried the
lake and its shores in ash. This hard
ened into stone. Scientists go to this
ancient graveyard, split: the stone and
bring to light the petrified bodies of
the butterflies and moths, the beetles
and bugs. Among these insects are
two species of tsetse flies. There is
nothing like them in America today.
But in Africa they d#Bound. They are
known as the carriers of the sleeping
sickness, one of the deadliest of dis
eases. It is falr to assume that the
tsetse flies of Miocene times were the
hosts or distributors of diSease bacilli
as they abe now. Upon that assumption
new theory can be constructed: The
tsetse flles developed into a terrible
pest. As they flourished, their victims
grew less. In the course of centurles,
the bulky citizens of plain and mar
gave up the warfare, They could sigh
one another and yet live. They could
not: destwith: mereiless u:ru. s
The theory has this merit whatever
efse it may lack, It is plausible where
its predecessors succumbed to clearer
‘binking.—Toledo Blude.

It Is Suggested That New Industry
of Raising Game May Reduce
Cost of Meat-—Encouraged in
3 States,
New York.~The raising of “wild
game” Is a comparatively new indus
try in this country, but has been mak-
Ing remarkable strides in the past 12
months, according to the report of the
Game Conservation soclety, which re
cently held its annual meeting here,
The society's membership Includes
many breeders who have established
game farms for the purpose of renew
ing the country's supply of game fowl
for table consumption. This supply,
according to members of the soclety,
was rapidly diminishing until a year
or 80 ago, and many of the most delec
table forms of wild food that had
formerly been plentiful in this country
had become rare dishes even for epi
cures, -
Wild ducks ‘and pheasants are
among the varieties of fowl that aré
being raised by the breeders at the
present time, and according'to the so
ciety’s report the former have become
so plentiful through this method in
some states that they have appeared
on the market at prices which place
wild duck within the range of the pub-
He generally instead of the rich alone.
In Minnesota, the report states, wild
duck sold at $1 each this year. It is
suggested in the report that at the
present rate wild duck and other form
erly rare fowl may actually tend to
lower the cost of the more common
place meats of dally consumption.
Many States Permit Breeding.
“Thirty-five states now have laws
permitting the breeding and sale of all
or certain specles of game, and many
game farms have been started in other
states in anticipation of laws encour
aging the industry,” the annual report
says. “Reports coming to the society
indicate that all of the states and some
of the Provinces of Canada soon will
permit and encourage game breeding.
“Reports coming to our game census
indicate that our members have over
a million game birds—there were few
er than 100,000 reported last year—
and that they have several times as
many, deer and elk as they had last
vear. The membership of the soclety
has doubled during the year, and our
list shows a very rapid increase,
“The breeding of quail and grouse
has been started in the western states,
and there is much interest in quall
breeding in the southern states, which
are well ‘adapted to the production of
quail in big numbers.”
Desp.lte the fact that hundreds of
thousands of pheasants have been
railsed by the breeders, the report says,
the prices have continued to rise be
eause lmporters have been prevented
from bringing these birds from foreign
countries. The report also states that
the breeding of game fish is beginning
to attract widespread attention and
to prove highly profitable,
“It is evident that comparatively
little of our vast territory will be need
ed to make America the biggest game
producing country in the world, since
game overflows from the many breed
ing grounds and restocks large areas
where it has become extinct, the
sportsmen in all localities find they
dre penefited and all prejudice against
the industry seems to have disap
peared, «
Benefits Are Shown,
“It is highly important that as game
becomes plentiful much of it should
be eaten, and the sale and eating of
game must be relied on to keep up the
industry, especially when it 'is under
taken by popular clubs with small
dues, which should sell some of their
game and eggs to help pay the cost of
production. The Game Cbnservation
soclety is especially interested in clubs
of this character and is constantly at
work to help these organize, /
“A notable example of the benefits
of game breeding has occurred on Long
Island. The clubs report that mallards
are plentiful not only on club grounds,
but also on public waters, where hun
dreds of birds have been shot recently,
Before game breeding was undertaken
the mallard was seldom seen on Long
Island. A single bird iz a bag attract
ed attention. The ornithologists re
ferred to the mallard as an occasional
vigitant. ¢ i o
“Quall shooting has been kept open
on the island for all hands without
fear of extinction, and in whole states
where there are no quall clubs it has
been found necessary to prohibit quail
shooting at all times. When there is
a 8 much breeding proportionately in
other parts of the country as there is
oy Long Island there will never be the
necessity for prohibiting all shooting,
as is now the case in many of the
quall states.”
