Quail, _ including â€" the â€" bobwhite, thrive in certain parts of the country, but in other sections they do rather poorly. Inâ€" some of the Northern States results in raising quail have not been entirely satisfactory. Virâ€" ginia and the Carolinas have had reâ€" markable success with them. At one time Mexican quail were imported into Maâ€"sachusetts at prices as low â€"as $150 per dozen. According to Dr. Phillips of the United States Biologiâ€" cal Survey, more than 233,000 bobâ€" whites are recorded as having enâ€" tered the United States from Mexico in a period of fifteen years, and the price has steadily risen to $24 and as high as to $36 a dozen. Chinese Pheasant The Chinese ringnecked pheasant increases rapidly in many parts of the country. This is a great new game bird. Reports from Minnesota say that this bird multiplies twice s rapidly as uny other species. Jowa has reâ€" cently distributed about 67,000 pheasâ€" ant exgs, and the birds have develâ€" oped healthily and strong, and they have materially increased their speâ€" cies. There is splendid pheasant huntâ€" ing in Western, Middle Western and Eastern States, including New York, New Jersey and Pennsyivania, where game authorities have given special attention to propagating pheasants. The most abundant of our native birds is the robin; next to this is the English sparrow, and following these ure the song sparrow. chipping sparâ€" row, meadow lark, and cat bird. Building Materials The building material situation conâ€" tinued steady during May. In only a few localities fluctuations were reâ€" pérted. but for the most part the bigh level of building activity was reflected in firmness in material prices. It was noted that the advance usually apparâ€" ent at this season of the year has so far no: appeared. creased in great numbers, but in reâ€" cent years, according to the Agriculâ€" tural Department in Washington, they have declined in numbers, both in cities and in rural districts. Naâ€" ture seems to be setting a balance against them. They may go the way of pigeons which were once so thick that they blackened and shut out the skies in their fights. than seventyâ€"five years ago.

English Sparrow Less in Numâ€" bers Than Formeriy; Other Well Known Bird and KINDS AND WHERE FOUND Moter Club Head Explains That| New Law Permits This; 3 Ends Long Struggle | Charles M. Hayes, president of the Chicago Motor club, points out, howâ€" ever, that "under Section 422, proâ€" vision is made for refund of the tax already paid by dealers on passenâ€" ger cars held by them and intended for sale. Under this provision, the dealer is protected for the excise tax already paid by him, and consequentâ€" ly every passenger. car sold after May 29 should be reduced in price to the buyer to the extent of the tax heretofore imposed. THURSDAY, AUGUST &, 1988 "Section 422 (Revenue Act of 1928) refund of automobile tax to manuâ€" facturer, producer, or . importer, reads: ‘Where prior to the date of the enactment of this Act any article, subject to the tax imposed by Section 600 of the Revenue Act of 1926, has bia Abi c n t dn 9 000 ts e h hale B inss been sold by the manufacturer, proâ€" date held by a dealer and intended for sale, there shall be refunded to the manufacturer, producer, or imâ€" porter, the amount of the tax, or, if Acid Tests for Ideas We do not any longer adopt a new idea unless it has been proved by ‘thorough tests.â€"Woman‘s Home Comâ€" shall be abated.‘ "Thus ends a fiveâ€"year battle waged on the part of the American Automobile association and on the part of manufacturers of automoâ€" biles and dealers, and the tax reducâ€" motorists of approximately $65,000,â€" 000 during the next twelve months," What Politics len‘t We peed to get rid of the idea that business is politics, says a student of affairs in The American Magazine.

"The new type of barn is called a masonry arch barn which as the name reveals is made entirely of masonry and with the upper story in the form of an arch.

He added that if the burâ€" §n" increased the company might have ‘ transfer its works to "tenrtes where the rate burden is less onerous." Now the point is, says the Protecâ€" tionist, that the Jocal government of Sheffield is in the hands of Socialists, who are spending public money with extraordinary recklessness. . Though the industries of the city are greatly depressed and suffering severely from German competition, the Socialist Party have brought forward proposâ€" als for a capital expenditure of two and threeâ€"quarter million pounds in the ensuing year. The only check to subscribe to the city loans and so limit supplies. i The only excuse offered by the Soâ€" cialists for their policy of squanderâ€" ing public money is that it provides work and reduces unemployment. But if it drives away the great industries, such as the company referred to, it simply has the effect of manufacturâ€" ing unemployment and creating disâ€" tress. That has been the result whenâ€" ever it has been tried on an extentive scale.

These proportions, it will be observed. are close to a populat average sixe of modern motor cabin cruiser or sailing yackt When the beat was first received by the museum in 1896, a complete study of it was made by Dr. John Bartlett of Chicago, an authority on \marine architecture.

So long as "private" war iis not outlawed, and naval powers claim the right to interfere with neuâ€" ztral trade under international law, then naval competition is inevitable. If, on the other hand, the naval powâ€" ers are willing to consider developing which would limit their own right to declare a blockade to cccasions justiâ€" | fied by international authority of some kind, then not only would a large reduction of paval expenditure all round seem to be in sight, but a new and vital element would be brough: into the problem of world peaceâ€" Round Table, London. Points Similar to Modâ€" ern Vessels; Oldest In World Some of the fine points cf marine architecture and shipbuilding used to this day in many of the finest modern yachts and commercial vessels, were known and used 4,000 years ago by the ancient Egyptians. This is brought forcibly to mind by an ancient Egypâ€" tizan boat on exhibition in the Egypâ€" tian Hall of Field Museum of Natural History, which has just been reopened to the public after being closed for a year for improvements, reinstallations and additions. e this beat, built 4,000 years ago, does not differ greatly in its underwater bedy from that of the latest yachts.
