Young Stormer Wins. 
Two of the best St. Bernard dogs in the 
United States, Col. Jacob Ruppert’s imported 
$2,500 Young Stormer and Tom L. Kemp’s 
Altadorf, the latter the largest St. Bernard in 
the world, weighing 235 pounds, met in compe¬ 
tition at the opening of the all-breed show of 
the Eastern Dog Club at Mechanics Building, 
Boston, on April 2, and Stormer was awarded 
the victory. It was a contest between English 
bred dogs, and there was much interest in the 
event. Altadorf defeated Stormer in New York, 
but the older dog, which is only three years of 
age, turned the tables- on him. Mrs. Kemp 
showed the Boston animal, and Stormer was 
exhibited by the professional handler from the 
Ruppert kennels. 
Dinner to August Belmont. 
At the annual meeting of the American Ken¬ 
nel Club it was decided to tender a subscription 
dinner to Mr. August Belmont, in commemora¬ 
tion of his twenty-five years’ service as presi¬ 
dent of the club. The dinner will be held on 
May 25, 1912, at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, 
New York city. The subscription price is $5.00 
per person, which must be sent with reserva¬ 
tion before May 15. Subscribers have the 
privilege of inviting guests.

MAGPIES IN NORWAY. 
How at home the magpie is in Italy—North 
Italy at any rate—in Erance, too, and in Nor¬ 
way! In Norway the bird in many districts is 
almost a domesticated animal. There is a mo¬ 
notony of magpies along Norwegian roads, and 
(says the “Eield”) they nest in a most con¬ 
fidential way within reach of any boy who cares 
to climb easily up a bush or low tree. In Erance 
the magpie is perhaps as much in his element as 
in Norway even. Magpie nests are to be seen 
regularly along the roads. One of the Nor¬ 
wegian valleys where I have noticed that the 
magpies abound along the roadside is the Hall- 
ingdal, and they are, or were, equally plentiful 
along the Fille Eield route between Honefos 
and Laerdalsoren. Then, too, the grey or Roy- 
ston crow is quite tame, building close to the 
roadside and feeding within a few yards of 
passers-by.

NATIVE BIRDS. 
Pheasants have demonstrated almost price¬ 
less usefulness to the farmer in the protection 
of his crops. But, it will be asked, why should 
this beneficent work be confined to the pheasant; 
why should not the native birds be preserved as 
well? The answer to this is that the introduc¬ 
tion of the pheasant and the success that has at¬ 
tended his propagation has greatly encouraged 
and stimulated the entire movement for the con¬ 
servation of American birds. There is a grow¬ 
ing sentiment and a growing taste in this direc¬ 
tion, and it would not be difficult to show how 
this movement, no matter how much of senti¬ 
ment may be at its base, seems certain to resolve 
itself eventually into an immensely valuable asset 
for the countries that are destined to enjoy its 
benefits.—Craftsman.
