CUNNING OF MusKRATs.
Foresight With Which These Animals
Build Winter Homes.


Build Winter Homes.
In the month Of March, before the
rivers have opened, on the snow around
the heads Of the creeks and about the
airholes in the thick Ice may be seen
the curious trail of the muskrat It
can readily be recognized by the firmly
planted footmarks, heavily and slowly
impressed, and the sharp after drag Of
the long. scaly, bladelike tail. All
through the cold winter months these
heavily furred animals have lived
warm and comfortable in their well
constructed houses, rearing their third
and last litter. One house erected
about September seemed planned with
almost human foresight. Here, with
their long sharp teeth and strong, inch
long claws, they had cut and cleared
wide paths through all the marshes
paths so deep that three feet Of ice did
often padded along them, marveling
at the great floating masses of torn up
aquatic vegetation. These paths were
a hundred yards long and four feet
wide and were cut through a mass of
tangled cover high enough in most
places to thoroughly conceal a duck
hunter and his canoe In the winter
months the muskrats can easily dive
from their houses into these under ice
channels, and the whole marsh is be-
fore them to choose their meal from.
The long yellow roots of the flag and
the juicy tubers of the wild onion (the
muskrat apple is the more poetic Ojib-
way) hang exposed before them or are
readily torn out.-Bonnycastle Dale in
Outing Magazine.

The American Sailor.

1t is related Of Commodore Decatur
that after he had tanned the Barbary
powers, whose energies had been re-
awakened while the war of 1912 kept
our navy busy, he set out in his flag
ship, the Guerrero, to make his way
across the Mediterranean unattended
and suddenly found himself in the
midst of one of the corsair fleets which
had remained in neutral port during
hOstilities. The situation looked rather
squally. The corsair admiral hailed.

they are blown landward they make
every place uninhabitable by the
stencil which arises from the countless
millions that lodge and die on every
inch Of sheltered ground. l myself
have seen them lying foot deep in
a room, and was told that they are
often much worse. The natives sweep
them up and make cakes of them.
