Woman Succeeds at Farming.

" oman SuCceeuS
Il see no reason why woman can
not earn as good living on small
farm as in any other field"
Such is the assertion, made with the
cheerful certainty of one who has tried
it-and succeeded-by a Connecticut
woman, Mrs. Jane C. Barrow, who has
for the past eight years supported her
self and sent two children to school, on
the earnings of a four-acre farm, only
one acre Of which is available for
planting and buildings.
"If woman is as fond Of the coun-
try as am said Mrs. Barrow, "she
will not find it a hardship, but rather
a pleasure. 1 had everything to learn
and l have succeeded, so 1 think other
women could do as well. I began with
a small boy as assistant; now 1 have
woman and q man and we are all
three kept pretty busy"
When this energetic and courageous
woman took her land she was forced to
60 into debt for money to pay for
groceries enough to keep her and the
two children until the farm began to
make returns.-Technical World Maya

MOTHER FOX KEEPS WATCH.
Animal Uses Every Means to Attract
Men Away from Her DEN.


Men Away from Her DEN.
Hunters found a den of foxes in the
hills south of Hagerstown and unearth-
ed five little ones about as large as
well grown cats, writes the Hagerstown
correspondent of the Indianapolis
News. The mother fox escaped before
the hunters reached the den, which
was lined thickly with soft grass and
feathers. Instead Of running away she
kept within sight while the hunters
worked with their shoyels.
She apparently understood what they
were doing, for she endeavored by
every means to attract them away
from their work and toward herself.
She approached quite near and acted
as If lame and distressed. She would
lie down on her side and writhe along
the ground, utering whines and means
Then she would limp off as If very
lame, going very slowly and hating
frequently.
The hunters were not to be drawn
away from the work in hand by such
tactics, and finally, after much digging
came upon the den where the five
pretty little fellows were shrinking
They made no resistance and seemed
rather to like the handling and pett1ns
they received. All of them were taken
to a farmhouse, where they are COLI
fined. They will not be released, but
will probably be painlessly dispatched.
Grown foxes do not make good neigh
bors in farming communities. Hunters
say it Is very rare for mother foxes
to leave all their young in one place
It is their cunning habit to scatter the

be entirely under the control of the
driver. while the horse has a will of
his own, and the inference is that
horse is more or less difficult to control
for this reason. Why does not this
theory work out in practice?

OPTIMISTIC o'sRlEN PENS RE-
 PENTANT POETRY.

In last Wednesdays issue of the Juneau Record appears a poem, "The House by the Side of the Road" The verse was run without quotation marks or without being credited. Are We to infer that Gloomy Gus has wooed the poetic muse?
 It may cen be so, for the poem concludes with this plsintiye Quatrain quite characteristic of Gus: "oh. why should I sit in the
 scorner's seat,
 Or hurl the cynics ban?- Let me live in my house by the
 side of the road
 And be the friend of man."
 If Gus Is really weary of playing the Ishmaelite and desirous of human sympathy and friendship, We will be the first to offer him the fraternal hand of fellowship.
 True repentance Is not to be scof- fed at. We are joyous that Gloomy Gus has seen the light. From now on we will know him as Optimistic O'Brien.
