 Hardly a season passes here with out someone locating den and mak- ing captive the whole litter, Two years ago 1 accidentally discovered one. and with a neghbor's help, dug them out and made them secure in the corn crib, At times they were as play like dogs over their food. The first morning after their capture l saw the old fox noislng around their prison. One of the young died in a day or two land my boy carried it to the woods
 The next afternoon when he returned | from the pasture with the COWS, he n- formed me that he had found young fox dead near the scene of the cap ture. I thought at first that it might | have been one that had died in the nest, and we had overlooked it when l we destroyed their roof tree but after | We found it to be the one that had died in captivity, as the one could not be found that my youngster had disposed of. We concluded that the mother had carried it back to the old home, a quarter of mile or more. How unconquerable this mother love. l l must confess that I felt something like remorse at finding such a human | trait in my enemy.

 skunks for twenty years l think he knows every woodchuck hole within three or four miles. I conferred with i him, and when April came again We | kept a sharp lookout for another den.
 We spent the greater part of one fore

In the days when man wandered through the forests a savage creature, clothed principally With sunshine and smiles, he took lit- tie care of the dog. It required all the efforts of the tribal ancestor to take care of himself. So the dog had to be on the lookout for "a rainy day."
 Dogs in those days lived mostly on fowls. Now in rainy weather fowls are hard to catch. So the early pet of man caught game before the rain began and buried it, so he should not die of hun ger in case the storm continued This instinct still remains with the dogs. Horses become uneasy as a storm ap- breaches. They fidget and neigh impa- tiently in their stalls. As the sky be- comes overcast asses bray and show their asinine defiance Of the inevita- ble Before a storm COWS lie down. Some day you may walk into a field and see flock of sheep in a corner with their backs turned to the north west. If you wait long enough you will see wind blow up from that direction. At other times the sheep run and bound over the fields. rearing on their hind feet as if they were fighting imag- mary foes. This indicates disturb ance of the atmosphere and the ap- proach of q brisk storm.
 Hogs, as would be typical of them, grunt before it rains. When lions eat ravenously, circus trainers know there is going to be bad weather.

Now It was evi- dently held in reserve as a choice nor sel for some wild gourmand. After careful examination of the hole, and of the cellar-for the doors were un- lockcd-we plugged the opening with stones promising the tenants a call later in the day,
 That afternoon was called away, and my neighbor, after waiting some time for me, started alone for the prize. A large strawstack stood near the house. sloping gradually down to where the machine had stood in thresh- ing time. As he neared the place he saw the old fox on the top of the stack. From this 'colgn of vantage she could overlook the surrounding fields for half mile This was un- doubtedly her crows nest No friend or enemy could approach unseen. She - preached The cellar had been lathed and plastered, and far down in a remote corner behind the clustering he found them. three lively little fel- lows, about half as large as fair sized cat. and two very small ones dead Probably some hound had giv- en her chase shortly before their birth. This would account for the mortality among them. (Since then another neighbor informs me that he found two of the young dead in a hole), We kept them in the corn crib as we had kept those of the year before think the old fox came nightly and prowled around the buildings. One of my hens had hidden her nest in some berry bushes between the corn crib and wag- on house. One morning I found her limping around the barnyard minus her tail Every tail-feather was pull ed out and scattered in a bee line from | her nest to the yard. Her eggs were cold, and she seemed to have lost all interest in them.

woods, less than hundred yards away,
 "A few days after this event my boy and 1 were witnesses of most re- markabe fox play My youngster was starting out to get the cows late one afternoon when I saw what | | thought at first was a shepherd dog Ihmong them, and the cattle seemed to be taking turns at charging him. They were perhaps two hundred and fifty or three hundreds yards away. As I looked, the dog made an unusually nimble leap to avoiw being gored, and grew suspicious. I called the young lster back and told him to go cautious | ly along the ridge and take look at them without being seen. In a few minutes he returned excited and out of breath. It was fox, as l sus- pected I took out my gun and we hur- ried along the ridge to witness the sport and incidentally to have little fun ourselves at reynard's expense. 1 We crept up within fifty or sixty yards of them. The fox behaved exactly like a strange dog among the herd, When one of the cows would charge him he would run little way and side step then another would lower
 her head and take after him. The fox apparently enjoyed the excitement. but there were seven cows in the herd
 and they kept him busy lodging them.
 His conduct was extremely aggravat- ing. He would sometimes stand till
 one almost caught him, then he would
 run and turn and provoke another to the case. I tried several minutes to get a bead on him, but the cows press
 ed him close. Finally they separat-
 ed far enough for me 10 take aim with
