shown a very complete collection of
our native fur bearing animals in-
habiting Southwest Texas. Prof.

collection of Texas animals will, no
doubt attract much attention. It
comprises about fifty different kinds
of wild animals, and the small
mammals are of particular interest.

recently discovered and some new
and curious harvest mice that build
nests in trees This collection also
