week, she delivers fifty of them to the
leading bird and animal dealer, who
sends them out to his customers In
this and other cities. In this way she
earns S. every week, and $21 and $22
per week from the other sales Of her
mice. 1t would be hard to imagine
easier money than the IS which she
receives weekly for her dwarf cat

ceeds are for the most part pure gain.
She has at her home part OF large
room partitioned off. and the floor COW
cred with straw and earth. This Is
her mouse farm. It must be cleaned
up now and then, and new straw and
earth put in for the mice. but aside
from this, her only care Is to feed
them twice day and keep their basin
full OF fresh water. The mice In.
crease at such rapid rate that by
selling fifty every week she Is able
