DECEIYING THE ENEMY.
Pretty Little Story about Two Parent
Foxes.

In the spring of 1888 pair Of REQ
foxes took no their home n a Dakota
farm. They dug several holes on knoll
in wheat-tield, and soon after four
kits" or young foxes arrived. Every
day, while narrowing and sowing wheat
in the field. says the farmer, | sa% tine
two old foxes lynn on the little mOu. d
in front Of their home. The kits rolled
about in the sun, played with the bushy
tails of their parents and enjoyed them
selves apparently as much as a group of
kittens.
One morning a neighbour came to work
in a field adjoining, bringing with him
a dog, and the dog, with all the curiOsi-
ty of his kind, soon began an inpestiga-
tlOn of both farms.

and ran in a direction away from his

At first the dog seemed to gain rapid

nearly mile before they disappeared u
the long prairie grass and concluded that
the fox was able to keep out of the

ingenuity in taking turns so that each

The farmers Of Maine have clrcum-

state. each club composed OF ten mem
bera. Instead OF buying their fresh
meats from the trust and paying trib-
ute 20 II they provide themselves with
such scnaonabie dclicacica Tho ten
farmers belonging TO a club arrange for
a succession OF hutchorios. That Is, a
hog Is killed every 80 many days dur
ing the winter season and the fresh
pork Ia divided Into ten parts, each
family getting one part. This does not
include the hams and other portions OF
the animal which are sailed or picked
for future use. The arrangement
amounts TO cooperative meat shop.
The farmers lose nothing and they get
fresh pork all the time. Tho Maine
