The oddest live stock offered in The R. N.-Y. 
so far is the Mexican armadillo, which a Texan 
friend offers as an attractive and interesting 
vermin destroyer. It is warranted to clear the 
premises of rats, mice, cockroaches, grubs, etc. 
What will the family cat say to such a grotesque 
competitor ?
