NUMBER 2l
STORY OF A FOX FIRM.
Success Secured by Maine Han in
This Experiment.

This Experiment.
Starting a fox farm was a kind
of wild goose scheme, SO Elijah
Norton, the originator of the
| project, frankly acknowledged,
as he spent great deal of money
on the undertaking. His success,
however, not only proves the ex-
cellency of his judgment, but his
experiment is attracting wide at
tention, says the New York Trib-
une.
The fox farm experiment began
about five years ago. Mr.. Norton
owns tract of several hundred
acres about 40 miles from Bangor,
Ma me, two of which are devoted
to the fox farm and are inclosed
with Il wire fence ten feet high. As
the foxes will climb to that height.
he saw to it that the fence at the
top turned in and projected over
the inclosure about two feet, thus
presenting al effectual barrier to
their escape.
To prevent the foxes burrowing
out, Mr.. Norton dug trench and
filled it with stones, so that under
meath every inch Of the wire fence
about the inclosure there is Il
stone wall. Then he cut the fox
farm up into II lots of different
sizes, putting up a well built house
on every lot with a yard running
all the way around; the houses in
every instance being provided with
Il cOmm0dious chamber. In the
summer time the inmates of the
fox farm prefer their own bur-
rows. But at the first suggestion
of cool weather they take to their
handmade dwellings, showing Il
marked preference for the secon1
floor apartments.
81 started my farm with six blue
foxes" said Mr. Norton, "bripgingl
them from Alaska TO Seattle byt
boat, and from there by express.
Now | have so or more. Itcost me
just $105.S0 TO get my siy foxes to
the farm. But they have paid for
themselves, express charges and
all, several times over"
Foxes at the farm become less
shy of strangers after the cooi
weather sets in. With their own
er and every meleher of his famil9
they have learned to be perfectly
at ease. Appearing from a bur
row or coming down from their
upstairs room, they scan the new
conner curiously. On closer ac-
quaintance with them it is easy to
discern that the farm foxes also
lack the hard. crafty expression
usually seen in the regular wild
type. They seem every way more
attractive and possessed OF II
pleasanter disposition.
a wave of the hand from either
their owner or the young man Will
guide the crafty creature through
any opening, the same as the shcp-
herd leads his sheep.
The care of the fox is not diff,
cult. Anything that a cat or dog
will eat is palatable to the fox. So
the diet is simple enough.

various towus, particularly Some
berry, which is reputed to be tht
home of the toy. Most of the col
| lection has been purchased by NJ
gent & Co., of this city. A German
country home Is laid out in al
open space between the projections
of the building, in order to show
the architecture, mode of furnish
ing rooms, and character Of rooms
The rooms are in rows around 9

one to the other by passing down
the veranda, which surrounds the
front Of all. About All Bulgaria
shows is rugs and tapestries, these
being very much in evidence. In

ia most prominent. There are ma
ny beautiful designs On exhibition
and on card there is a list ef roy
al families who are furnished with
the Copenhagen ware; also the
United Navy appears on this card.
Wax figures, clothed in the rich
est and most delicately tinted Co.'S
tunes are prominent features in
the British section. These are
slightly inferior to similar class of
exhibits of French design IN Man
ufacture Building, which shall be
mentioned when that building is
reached. There is also some Brit
ish cotton mills machinery in oper-
alton showing the p,ucess of man,
ufacture from the lint to the
thread. 1t appeared to be similar
to the method used in Mississippi,
though l did not examine it closely
The japanese section is filed with
pottery, triakets, ETC., all of which
are very pretty and either for sale
or marked "soid."
Coming down to the domestic
exhibits, a great variety is noted.
The Parker Fountain Pen ca.
make some pens here where peu-
pie can see the work. This process
is interesting. Mermod d Joccard,
the chief jewelers. of st Louis, have
a beautiful exhibit Of cut glass,
diamonds, other gems, and jewelry

4 valued at $4,000. In here nothing
is thought of asking YOU $50 for a
small scarf pin. Another exhibit
that is unique is the collective one
from the Grand Rapids furniture
manufacturers, The most extensive
in this country perhaps. The space
is covered, divided into rooms,
richly furnished with the differ
ent manufaotur best suits.
These represent the best in the
furniture line here, in lny opinion
The carpet section will proye at
tractive to the women. Many beau
tiful designs are shown, in fact
the best that this country or for
eign countries afford. Persia has
a section off to herself, filled with
rugs and other less important ar
ticles. Many elegant displays OF
American pottery can also BE- seen,
and many other places and articles
of interest. Souvenir stands, girls
and enthusiastic statesmen are ex-
ceedingly plentiful, and diamonds
are sold as low rs 75c per aiat--
nothing being said of the quality
