MURRETTE "The Living Book of Nature," by Raymond L. Ditmars at the Murrette today and Saturday. An aggregation of striking forms and several animals of a great rarity. Here 1b fehown the
only specimen of musk ox that is liv
ing in captivity In the world. It was captured north of the Arctic Circle and was filmed during midwinter to show the excessive coat of hair that protects it from the frightful cold of the winds that sweep the arctic Barren Grounds. The curious horns set upon the head like a crown. The scenes shift to animals from tropical zones, but living at great altitudes-in the Andes of South America. These
are the vicunas, UamaB and alpacas. Their grotesque forms cause them to look more like animated caricatures than wild animals. With jumps to remote parts of the map the portrayal shows the yak of Tibet, described jn tascinatlng way by Rider Haggard in hiB Weird taleB. Thence follows an entertaining scenic tale of the American buffalo and an animated map telling the tragic story of the close to utter extinction of America's most noble wild animals.

Six hundred and sixty head of sheep, all coming two year olds, have been distributed among a number of Wayne county farmers by the conservation department of the Indiana Council of Defense, acting for the United States government- The distribution was made under the direction of the German-American Trust and Savings bank. Each sheep was sold for $17 and the average purchase was between twenty and thirty head. Sheep are scarce and valuable at this time and have sold as high as $25 per head. . The price paid to the government by Wayne county farmers is considered very reasonable. The 660 head receiv
ed is Wayne county's allotment, and the sheep were disposed Of as rapidly as thev were received.
The ewes will bear lambs next year
ana the farmers who have purchased herds from the government expect
good returns on their investments, for the demand for wool, leather and mutton will increase rather than decrease for an indefinite period, it is anticipated.
