Winter wood-I4ore

OF all tho fcats common to hunting
life and woodcraft, onc seems 10 mo
half so wonderful as tracking or trail
ing. As practiceh by nan tracking is
wonderful enough; but far more mar
vclous is tho power Iy which y dog or
fox can follow its prey at full speed.
guided only by scent, without crring
or being led astray.
To us. the word scent has but little
meaning; it is the name of a power
with which man is, comparatively. all
most uncndowcd. We go into the
woods and SEQ nothing but a leaf
strewn ground, thinly scattered over
with herbs and thickly planted with
trees; we seq no quadrupcd, and find
no sign of amy, perhaps, save the far
away chatter of II squirrel. But u
dog. merrily carcering about, is pos
sessed OF a superior power. AT every
moment of his ourse he is gathering
facts, and reading u wonderful record
of the past, the present. and cvcnsof
the future. .Idere," says his unseen
guide, sis where a deer passed a min
ute ago." or ''an hour ago;" this vas
the course of n fox a week ago. '.that
was tho direction in which q rabbit
flew by a few minutes ago, and, OHIO!
there was a weasel after him!"
Such is the curious record of scent,
revealed to the dog but hidden from
the man, and even incxplicablc TO him;
for though we have II theoretical
knowledge of the subject. it is too im-
perfect to make us fully understand
that not only has every kind or ami
NAL, but each individual animal, its
own peculiar scent. Thus, tho dog
can distinguish not only the bucks,
does, and fawns of the deer tribe. but
the particular buck that he is follow
ing, and eve leave it or lose it.
Moreover, lie can tell by the scent
which way the animal is going, aud
he is never known to run backward on
IL trail. Now, when VIC compare this
wonderful power with our own feeble
sense of smell, VIC will he ready to adj
NIT that it is IL faculty of which man,
comparatively, has little.
Let us suppose that you were to
awake some tine morning and find
that, us i'll the old fairy tales. n mighty
genius had conferred nn you IL new
and wonderful faculty, that enabled
you to go forth ans. read the running
records with even greater accuracy
and case than can the honnd-wlat u
marvel it would bc. and how intensely
interesting its exercise to ~ lover Of
Nature! And yet t,lis very miracle is
what actually takes place every year
in II northern country. The great
genius is old Boreas, and the can
by which he confcrs tho new power is
tho first fall of snOw.-ETnest Il,
