| remember one afternoon particular
ly. We had journeyed back into the
bush in search of pheasant for our Sun
day dinner and had wound up eventually
at deserted lumber camp cabin, around
the front of which he found fresh deer
tracks. Off we went keen as hounds on
the scent, and what chase that buck
did lead us, for it was buck though
never saw it. Moore proved that to me
by the track left by its horns through
the foliage of the underbrush. Once on
the track of that deer there was no go
ing round. 1t was go where the deer
did, though to be sure should not have
known where that was but for Moore's
keen eye. 1t was over the hills, across
the ravines, through the swamps Once
we got so near that Moore tried to show
me the animals antlers sticking through
the underbrlsh ahead, but l could not
distinguish them, and am afraid l
should have half imagined that he did
not had not almost Immediately heard
the animal break away again in his
search for new cover. 1t was out of sea-
son and Moore would not shoot, else the
deer would probably have never reached
that new cover.
After tramp of more than an hour
we came out on the top of bluff over
looking a pretty lake, the shores OF
which were one of his favorite hunting
and trapping grounds.

next lake. he said, pointing almost di-
rectly westward There is a beaver

do you see the broken undefbrush
down the side of the bluff below you
and the tracks on the sand? That is
where our deer went, and he was some
little distance ahead of us to have
reached the other shore before we got
here. There is a runway just across
that point where he landed, and he will
take time on the other side TO stop for
a drink as he has now put this long bay
between us and himself.
Further down that channel one may
get an occasional mink as have proven
in years that are past and expect to
prove again, though they are getting
scarce in this part OF the country.
Moose, too, are getting scarcer than
they once were, though they are by no

long ago as 1895 it was found at the YER
mont station that the orange hawk

meadows, could be destroyed without
injury to the grass by sowing salt over
the land at the rate of 5000 pounds per
acre. Many experiments have since
been conducted at the same station with

weed killers, the active principle OK
which apparently was arsenic. The
weeds which it was sought to destroy
were plaintains, dandelion, chicory,
ragweed, knotweed and various grasses
All the chemicals were applied in solu-
ton except the salt AS in the case OF
the hawkweed experiments, salt was
found efficient in destroying all tbs
weeds when applied dry and in large
quantity. When salt is used for this
purpose adjacent lawns should be pro-

in four pints Of water, applied at the rate

largely matter of expense. All things
considered, the arsenate of soda and thu

POULTRY YARD NOTES


1t is not necessary that the poultry
plant to be attractive looking should ss
either expensive or elaborate in it's
features.
Neatness pays, because neatness In.
construction and arrangement means
completeness; and completeness IN
equipment always contributes toward
convenience, and hence toward economy
in labor.
Three essentials to success in poultry
keeping: A good location, strong
healthy fowls of an early maturing.
variety, interest in the work that VILE.
lead one to be ever on the alert for help
full knowledge.
A poultry plant, whether large or
small, whether consisting Of single
house. or of many houses, should be-
neat, and both the arrangements OF the
houses and the arrangement of furnish
ings In the houses should be COW enient.
Judging the causes of failure by whaa

may affirm with positiveness that this.
three most common causes of failure IN
poultry keeping are: Lack OF expert
