Work In Dakota.

Nearly every paper l have read late

girl of Lake County. Dakota. who
plowed forty acres of ground. 1t was
a grand thing for n girl only twelve
years of age To do. but l think the fol-

ter Maud, only seven years old at The

of the work in stacking over five hun
dred acres of hay and grain. We ran
from three to five teams every day,
and she would drivea load tothc stack.
change teams. drive back to the field
and change teams, driving a different
team every time. Some of the teams
not very gentle. but she managed
them as we'll as IL of the men. At
IL time while hauling hay the load
slipped off, throwing her under it.
She crawled out. overlook the team,
caught the lines that We're dragging on
the ground, turned the team around,
drove hack to the hay on the ground,
nnllitched the team. took one of the
horses and rode back to the field. got
help to come and load the hay and
drove to the barn as though nothing
had happened. If YOU can find a girl
seven years old that has displayed more
sand and good horse sense than she did
on this occasion, ! will throw up the

rats. and how to get rid of them has
long been a perplexing question. Traps
We're used, hut nothing would tempt
the rodents to enter. In Il store-room
drawer was placed Il quantity of sum
flower seeds, used as food for some of
the birds. Into this drawer the rats
gnawed their way, a fact which led the
Captain to experiment with them fol
Init in the traps. The result was that
the rats can't he kept ont. \ trap
which appears crowded with six or
eight rats is found some mornings ia

cages containing weasels and minks.
The latter will kill a rat absolutely al
most before II can see it, so rapid are
its movements. The wenscls are a
trifle slower, but none of the rats es-
cape them.
