Stories of the Snow TraiIs.

me next time I went out to study
the language OF the trails the snow lay
three and a half inches deep. While
crossing a frozen pond I ran upon the
trail of mink-a trail which 1 always
follow If 1 have time, as there is sure
to be a story in it." as a newspaper
man would say. The trail in this par
tlcular depth and quality of snow con-
sisted of a series of oblong holes, made
by the four feet of the mink at the
end of each leap. Having crossed the
pond, the little animal had followed
the line of the shore, stopping here
ana there to nose under rocks and
roots, until he reached a point where
a stream flowed into the pond. Then
he had followed the bank of the
stream and presently had reached a
mole IN the ice, where his footprints
disappeared, showing that he had en-
tered the water. A little farther on
there was another hole, where he had
come out again, and 1t was evident
from the trampled, blood stained snow
and the fish scales lying about that he
had captured n fish and that he had
eaten it on this spot And where the
snow had been wet the mink had left
clear individual impressions of his
feet.

woods can hardly realize the number
OF woodland tragedies to be found
recorded in the snow. The wolves,

their tracks are found at all is good
evidence that a fair measure of success

deaths. and most of these deaths were
tragic. was once following the trail
of a rabbit, when I found it abruptly
Joined by that of weasel. From this
point the two trails had the same d.
rection, and often they were interlaced.
They led me through wood, over
rocks, and between tree trunks, to a
pile of brush left bv the lumbermen.
Here the rabbits tracks ended in
mass of gray fur which moved in the
wind, and beyond the brush pile for a
leap or two the tracks of the weasel
were bloody.-E. H Baynes, in EIar-
