TWO SQUIRREL STORIES.
Where They Stored Their Provisions fer
the Winter. s.

WncrC Thcy stored Their PROVISIONS Ter
the Winter.
''I've got true squirrel story to tell
you," said member of the club the
other evening. "About month ago a
friend of mine having cottage on the
shore Of Oneida lake left corn starch
box or package in the pantry. There
was a little corn starch remaining in it,
and to secure it against mice the box
was placed inside of tall pitcher hav-
ing very smooth surface. My friend
was at the cottage again a few days
ago, and bethought himself of the corn
starch. Upon examining to see if the
mice had got at it, the box was found
standing on end in the pitcher as left,
but it was filed to the brim with sweet
acorn meats, all shelled and as nicely
laid in as any person could have done it.
And not one was to be found in the
pitcher outside of the box. Those
squirrels must have expended a good
deal of labor and worked faithfully to
have accomplished the job in so short q
time. Of course, the acorns were not
disturbed, but left as found for the
squirrels winter subsistence"
''That puts me in mind of something
Twas told last night by friend of mine
who has just returned from the North
Woods" said another. "'There were
two parties camping quite little dis
lance apart. One party carried into the
woods a bag filed with flberts, al
monds and other its. He hung the bag
up where he thought it would be safe,
and the next day visited my friend and
his associates in the other camp, being
absent from his own camp two or three
days When he returned my friend
went back with him, and on the way
was told of the treat in store for him in
the shape of nuts. Upon reaching the
camp, however, hole was found in the
top of the bag and every nut gone. It.
was supposed the squirrels had carried
them off to their homes in the woods
and nothing more was thought of it till
the next day, when my friend went to
put on pair of rubber boots, hanging
up in another part of the camp, and in
these boots were all the nuts, nicely
stored away by the squirrels for win
ter use!''-Utica Observer.

Drawing the Lines.

The lines of stud book registration are
narrowing. Blood will be the only open
sesame. The American Clydesdale as
sociation after 1898 will record no mare
that does not show four crosses of regis
tered sires and no stallion that does not
show FIVE such crosses. This will ex-
clude many animals eligible to record
in the Scotch stud book. It is sharp
advance of the standard and means that
the formative period is passing.
And now comes the American Cleve-
land Bay Society of America with the
adoption of the following rule:
'.This society will not accept for regis
try after the close of volume of its stud
book any animal showing a direct
thoroughbred cross; that is, whose sire
or dam is sired by thoroughbred
horse.'
This draws the line at most of the
Yorkshire coachers which have hereto
fore been admitted to the America
Cleveland Bay Stud Book.-Breeders
Gazette.
In Montana and adjacent portions of
the northwest horses, cattle and sheep
are unusually free from disease, pastur-
age was uncommonly good early in the
season and beat cattle and other live
stock went into the winter in excellent
condition.
There was an increase Of 3,205 in
the number Of swine in Iowa during
1891.
IF the farmer looks about and COM
bines with his neighbors, the middle

have formed an association and control
