“I really didn’t expect to stir
up such a fuss about the horned
frog situation, but it seems that
there are lots of people who
agree with me. They just had
never thought about it."
Only solution for the problem
seems to be the ant bed. rock
pile or sand pile previously re-
ferred to. If such a spot can
be found, the small and under-
privileged horned frogs can be
gathered there and placed un-
der the training of a few of the
most worthy and reliable adult
homed frogs to be found.
IOWA EXPEDITION
There has also been some dis-
cussion about sending an ex-
pedition to Iowa to make an in-

We have had in our care
the past few weeks little Elmer
and little Oscar.” the letter
read, "and since we do not
have the finances and equip-
ment to care for these two little
darlings, we are passing them
on to you It breaks our hearts
to part with these two perfect
little gentlemen, but we feel
confident that you will give
them a much better home until
facilities can be had to care
for the little orphans."
Although he expressed him-
self as being almost overwhelm-
ed with the trust, Stinson said
that he was at a loss about the
lair according to early information
received from breeders by officials
of the livestock division Judging
