February 26 (#).— A way to Import | running afoul of the immigration authorities. The state has just imported 5,000 uail from Mexico to help out the Kan- as farmers. They are expected to at up 125,000 insects during next summer, and, with their brood of young “bobby whites” to destroy at least a quarter of a billion weed seeds by Autumn. The Mexican qualil is slightly small- er than the native bob white of Kan- sas, but the State game warden is as- sured that the two will interbreed. He estimates conservatively that the pur- chase of 5,000 birds will bring Kansas 25,000 young quail next Summer. Named Auditor for Porto Rico. Frederick G.
