The animals are coming to the suburb under the auspices of the Richton Park Regional Development association to be used in that associ- ation's part in the celebration of the completion of the south side electri- fication and Illinois Central railroad's diamond jubilee. There will be a whole carload, twelve head, all bulls, purchased from the Wainwright ranch at Bashaw, Canada, through the cour- tesy of the Canadian government. The buffalo will be used by the association to stage "the last buffalo hunt on the Old Sauk Trail" in their historical pageant which will be given twice daily beginning Sunday, July 25, and ending Sunday August 1.

Each one is given a | separate crate built of two-inch plank- | ing. Dr. J. L. Himrod of the Chicago | Historical society, who has gone to | Canada to personally accompany the buffalo to Richton Park, has had a great deal of experience in handling these supposedly extinct species. Buffalo Increase "While a few years ago, there were comparatively few buffalo left in the United States, there are a number of ranches in the West which have made a specialty of breeding the animals," he says. "There is a large one in California with a thousand buffalo, and another large herd in Montana, but the largest buffalo ranch in America is at Bashaw, Canada, where there are now more than 40,000 head. The owners of the ranch therefore are be- ginning to havg a problem each year of disposing of their surplus bulls. And it is thus possible to bring a taste of this little known meat to the hundreds of thousands in Chicago who never dreamed of having it. FOAPOIIO \I78 at the Orrington and enjoy the privacy of a detached home, but the freedom from responsibilities that only or- [7878 [ravi aY | be borne in mind when you have occasion [g|||| nized service can bring "Buffalo meat, when properly pre- to choose one e you. pared, is a real delicacy. Few people really know how to prepare it, but C. E. Irwin is one of the few, and there is a treat in store for everyone who gets one of the buffalo sandwich- es." A five acre paddock is nearing completion on the Old Sauk Trail at Richton Park to hold the buffalo and afford ample space to stage the hunt. Ordinary cattle fence does not suffice. It is heavy park fence fastened se- curely to posts set in solid concrete. At one side is a hole in the ground to be filled with water, for the buffalo will not drink out of the customary stock fountains. On their trip to Richton Park from Canada, they will be watered by means of a hose forced down their throats. Tvl The Orrington fulfills in every way your conception of a real home.
