THE MAN WHO SAVED THE
BUFFALO
PlOKIlArs tin; gnutest ilauglit-r In
tli liliitory of the world wu on
ji'coinpanluieut of pushing back the
lat American frontier. That was the
knt ruction of the vaat buffalo herds
which once ronuied the great plains
between the MIhs1sIpi1 river and the
Itocky uiountalnit. How many millions
of the animals were killed In leas than
a quarter century of concentrated ef
fort at wholesale execution will never
be known, but by the middle of the
eighties there was only s pitifully
mall number of survivors, and these
had no h'gul protection.
However, about this time one of the
men who had bern responsible for the
decimation of the buffalo had s change
of heart. He was Charles J. Jones,
native of Illinois and s settler In Kan-'
as, who had been employed as a
hunter by the Union Pacific railroad
to provide meat for Its laborers.
"Sometime I been me sickened at the
laughter of the defenseless brutes and
felt like throwing down my rifle and
never shooting another one of them,"
nald Jones. "In 1S.W I saw that the
bison was doomed, and I resolved to
atone for my cusitedness by saving as
many as I could."
80 be assembled a party of cowboys
and rode down Into the Texas I'an
hnndle to rapture buffalo calves,
Thi-y roped 14 of the little fellows, but
could save only four of them. The
remainder literally "went mad" In cap
tivity and died quickly. The next year
Jones wont to. the Panhandle again,
captured 18 calves and saved eluht
Two later trips netted Mm 37 i-Hlve.

FAIL ' :

If a man with three talented and
pretty children, a contented wife
and a bank account of $100,000 is
a successful man then Harry Gray
son, 48 years old, of Rangeley
Lakes, Maine, is worth considering.
In 1800, when he was fourteen,
his father. John Grayson died. The
family were living in Haverhill,
Mass., and were poor. The elder
Grayson died of consumption, '
A year after her husband's death
Mrs. Grayson married again. The
. new father kicked Harry out of the
house " Making his way to Salem,
the bny got a job in a butcher shop,
and out of his first two years' earn
ings he saved $208. With it he
to Lynn, Mass., and starts
a small independent milk route.
He was wiped out. By hopping
freight trains he made his way
to New York and hired out as a
dishwasher on the Panama Railroad
steamship Cristoble plying between
New York and Colon. Arriving on
the Isthmus, a strip of which,
known as the Canal Zone, the Gov
ernment had taken over, he formed
a partnership with a Chinaman and
opened a silk shop in old Panama
City. His investment was his la
bors. When a few years later An
con became settled with workers
from the States his little shirt and
fashions shop began to prosper.

and with these as a nucleus he eventu
nlly hutlt up a herd of several hun
dred buffalo on his ranch near Garden
1ty, Kan.
By this time the American public
inid realized the mistake that had been
made, and, became aroused to the ne
cessity for action to correct It. But
even with public sentiment back of the
effort to save the buffalo. It Is doubt
ful If It could have succeeded, had It
not been for "Buffalo" Jones, as he be
came universally known. His long
work of "atonement" had given him a
herd of bison from which he supplied
anlmuls to bring new strains of blood

Population la gaining on crop production, according to a study made over a
period of thirty-four years by the Sears-Roebuck Agricultural Foundation,
based on figures of the United States Department of Agriculture. The ac
companying chart shows crop production per capita Is falling.
Taking the average of 1910 as 100, total crop production In the last three
years averaged 108.8. Owing to the growth of population, per capita produc
tion has been only 92.8 when 100 represents the 1010-1914 average.
The chart ahows Index numbers of both total and per capita production of
crops from 1890 to 1028. The production record Is based on the total yield of
10 crops corn, wheat, oats, burley, rye, buckwhent, potatoes, hay, tobacco and
cotton, which Include more than OS per cent of the total acreage of all crops.
Since yields are expressed In various units, bushels, hales, tons and pounds,
the crops are combined by applying a constant average price to the yearly pro
duction of each crop.
