Mansfield, Sec., - Federated Sportsmen of Illinois Importation of ten thousand bob white quail from Mexico will be completed this week, according to a statement by William J. Stratton, chief game and fish warden. Mr. Stratton and Mr. L. H. Becfeerer, state purchasing agent, made a thorough personal investigation of all sources of supply and after a trip to Texas, bought ten thousand quail from "Snake" King of Brownsville, Texas. These quail are shipped by express in crates containing twenty-five birds and have been distributed in all parts of the state where conditions Are Suitable for survival and propagation. Reports received indicate that they arrived in good condition with only a very small loss in transit. Since the teims of sale required safe delivery, any losses will be made good by the importer, so that there will be 5,000 pairs of vigorous healthy birds to replenish ottr supply of this greatest of game birds. According to Mr. Stratton the increase in numbers of birds for propagation is not more important than the added vigor, health and size that will be imparted to our native quail when they mate with these imported birds.] In many localities, especially where the quail are carefully protected and the covies are not broken up and mixed with other covies, the birds have become dwarfed in size and in many instances have failed to breed. This deplorable condition should be remedied to a large extent by bringing birds from a distance.

K-i No Increase in the Price of pyiktk-sogg @y(XH§>o£>pg© The extra quality built in by the extra process of Gum-Dipping, the economy of these wonderful tires and the added mileage obtained from them during the past two years, has created such a large demand that over 75% of Firestone's mammoth production is now Balloon Gum-Dipped Cords.

This large volume, produced under the most economical tire manufacturing methods, permits Firestone to sell these extraprocess Full-Size Balloons at no extra cost to car owners. And this in the face of greatly advanced cost for crude rubber brought about by the operation of the British Rubber Restriction Act. \ Gum-Dipping means longer 9 mileage--greater economy--at no extra cost to you!
