A Haynesville farmer lost a num-
singular manner. He had IL head of
young stock turned into pasture this
spring, but in looking for them last
week he could only find four. Search
was made for the others, but for some
time the labor was without results.
The SearcherS wandered in the vicinity
of lumber camp, and by q strong
stencil which seemed to be waited from
the camp a closer investigation was
made. When the door of the camp was
opened the dead bodies of the eight
lost animals We're found within in an
advanced state of decomposition. 1t
would seem probable that the animals
had gone into the camp, and by their
hustling around had closed the door
on themselves, and made their exit
impossible. Closed in there without
food or water they had starved to
death; or in the madness of hunger
and thirst had killed each other.
Recreation number of The World s

hook, fix the bait, and all 1 had to do
was drop in and pull out. A man can

as he can at LenoX. l am going to

But true SpOrtSmeni come We'll, not
only for its gamy trout and wary deer,
but for solitude and for primitive sim
plicity in living. Means of enjoyment
are endless. Exploring is full of sur
prising delights-creeping in a canoe
along the shores of the forest-edged
lake for miles and every now and then
stealing into little bays where the deer
fed on swamp grasses ando water lilies
and the solemn great grey harons
stand like sentinels in the shallow
water trails merely lines of blazed
trees dangerously far apart, lead
through the woods, fragrant with fow-
ers, where birds rare to the suburban
bird-lover are as common as robins,
to new lakes or streams. Even rainy
days have their charm as the camper
sits by the blazing fire and listens to
tales of wilderness adventures. Here
square-tailed trout grow to the weight
of ten and even twelve pounds, and
they can be taken by the ideal meth
od-the fly and the nine-Ounce rod.
In the fall still hunting for deer and
moose makes the clear, cool days glide
by swiftly.

A Summer Soma.

This about the summertime: Just let the
thunder ROLL
It's good to jest be Twin, with the glory
in your soul!
The light is shinin bright
An the stars out at night,
An the rivers are a-ripple through the
valleys of delight!
This about the summertime:
The green in all the trees,
The shadows of the branches, the drowsy
hum of bees;
The cool an dreamy dellS,
Where the cattle shake their bells,
An the quiet of the twilight when the
day signs sweet farewells!
Far sweeter is the summer time than
winter with his glOoms,
For not vale or meadow but is beauti-
full with blooms.
The glory of the light
In the morning and the night,
An the singin' of the mockin' birds in
valleys of delight!
