correctly, of a scientific corporation, — to join it in this 

 effort for the perpetual preservation of the American 

 Bison species. 



It is highly desirable that all friends of the American 

 Bison should show a practical interest in this work by 

 taking an active part in it and helping to share the initial 

 burden. It is reasonably safe to assume that Congress can 

 be persuaded to establish other national herds of Bison 

 in other portions of the United States, provided other 

 individuals, or scientific bodies, will take the initiative in 

 the same manner that was so successfully taken by the 

 New^ York Zoological Society.
