1t was surveyed a year or two ago and it

Truckee ditch was built then all could
have plenty of land and water and could
raise big crops.

in any way for fear e soaring the
hawk. and after il had tloated above

down so near TO his head that he could
feel the wind from its wings Again
the hawk circled over the field. plainly
on a sharp lookout for mice or small
birds. and once more il played around
above him for spell. swept past his
head at terrific speed. and arose in the
air at the end of the lot. The idea
that the hawk took him 70 be craven

SO he stood perfectly still and let the
broad-winged fellow act as naturally as
il would have done if there had been a
stump where he was
Spying mice among the potato hills

sailed aloft again. 1t was directly

waiting to see it s~oop past him, when

off toward some woods. The hawk
saw at once that it had set it's claws
into something that had neither blood
nor feathers, and it began 10 Zap its
wings and shake Its feet 20 rid itself of
the undesirab bic possession. Presently
the hat dropped near the center of the
field, and the puzzled hawk went
screaming toward the woodland as
though it had escaped from a trap.
