adjoining two acres we're to be sowu to
corn for fodder. Upon the other two
acres no manure was put, but il was
plowed and cultivated TIL the soil, four
inches deep, was a. h1e 81 garden bed.

poands per rod, and the unmanrred, but

to the land by spreading bsruysrd ma

shtstlsd and the dog running from one
pace to another showed almost human
Intelligence IN his know ledge OF
places where boy might possibly

ever, and exhibited his triumph in
emphatic "dog talk" The boy then
placing the dog 10 similar position hid
his hat aud told the dog to find 1t. After
| Il quarter of an hour spent iu fruitless
search, the animals perseverance was re-
wsrded by finding the hat Oh top OF a
counter. The air of his dog
ship was exceedi' gly oomioal

Then the dos ard boy, the former sitting

operators said: 81 wouldn't mind giving
you $40 or SIS for that dog" The hoy
