what foolish things mortals some
times do. I'VE watched a travel

here last Friday. His scheme was
to sell his pills at % cents a box and
then give the purchaser back bis
money. After he got the Gro wd
interested he raised the price of his
wares 10 81 and then forgot TO re-
turn the money. He went through
the same proceedings with equal
success at Wavelaud on Tues day.

The Earl Of Southeast, while
hunting in Saskatchewan not long
ago, had an experience with a fox
which shows the remarkable in
stincts which that animal some
times possesses. The Earl says:
"After chasing him a number of
miles, on sudden he made an act
I've spring and disappeared head
foremost into the snow. Down we
capped to secure him. Behold a
gaping badger hole. BY what in
stict could the fox discover the ex-
act position of that hole? No differ
ence on the smooth, shining surface
was visible to US, yet the fox in all
his fear and peril could light exact
ly upon the entrance of this con-
cealed and apparently long unfre-
qUented burrow.'

twelve inches on the level. There

CAREOF STOCK IN THE FALL

The stormy and cooler weather
already experienced in so many
places should be a reminder to the
stock raiser who is not now we'll
prepared in the way of comfortable
buildings, to give his stock suitable
protection during the coming VIM
ter, that no time should be lost In
providing what is needed InrelIi-
gent, observant farmers have learn
ed that it is poor economy to sup>
ply warmth for stock by giving
more food during the winter, in
stead of providing comfortable
quarters, in which the animals will
grow and lay on fat faster on con-
siderably smaller rations, as under
such circumstances less is required
to keep up bodily neat.
It is not always practicable to put
up the most convenient and cons
plete building, such as draw atten-
ton to so many well>improved
farms, but these are not essential
for the purpose named, as sheds
and barns may be built cheaply
where straw Is abundant, with
poles or a small outlay for timber
and few boards. In such build
ings stock of all kinds may be very
comfortably housed during severe
weather, and the money expended
IN such a way will be proftably 10
vested. OF course, large and tas-
tlly constructed buildings add much
to the appearance of farm and in-
crease its value, the time and work
saved by having conveniently ar
ranged barns is an important item,
particularly where several men are
