THE WAR'S VICTIM
For the first time in many years,

a typical hay field, and the cinder
track resembles a new but unwished
weed-patch. If its benefactor and pro-
mulgators were to examine it today
their anticipations would doubtless be
somewhat shattered. Still, the blame
for the condition of the field cannot be

ENTER STATE FIELDS
Zoological Expeditions to Be Confined
to Michigan Territory
The zoological expeditions sent out
annually by the University of Michi-
gan, will be confilred mainly to this
state this year instead of going to dis-
tant fields as hertofore. Every year
the state is becoming more settled so
an effort is being made to collect all
possible data on this section of the
country before it is too late. Short ex-
peditions lasting only a week or so
have been sent out into various coun-
ties and an intensive survey of four of
these has already been completed. The
main expeditions for this year have
not as yet reported.
Last summer four expeditions were
sent out by the University. One went
to Texas to collect reptiles, amphi-
bians and ants. It was located about
60 miles north of the border, a little
east of El Paso, in a country which
had never been worked before and
was a great success. The second ex-
pedition went to North, Carolina to
study salamanders and obtained much
material which the museum had not
had before. The other two expeditions
were in the northern and northwest-
ern parts of Michigan. The object
was to collect specimens and data con-
cerning the habits, habitats and abun-
andance of "various organisms.
