Money Made Out Of Beans.

A contributor TO the current

Last year utilized an acre
of sandy ground which other
wise would have been idle. l
hired the men to plant it in navy
beans. They did that with the
corn-planter. 1t took them only
a short time. They also culti-
waited the acre at the proper
time and helped me thrash the
beans in the fall. paid for this
help at the rate of four dollars
per day, amounting altogether
to six dollars. For the seed |
paid two dollars.
Il had, when all gathered in,
twenty bushels Of beans, for
which l received three dollars

Edmonton. Alta, Aug. S.
Seven hundred and fifty-one live
foxes, valued at more than 5000
900, have been trapped or dug
out of their nests IN the fur dis
tricts north Of Edmonton since
the beginning of the season.
The highest price paid for a pair

animals were bought by c. j.
Fleming. of St. John, n. B.,
from half bteed Indian trapper
at Lac la Richie. T. j. McMann,

fox whelps, all colors, for S26, =
600 to James A. Kane, of Brook

in New York and Pennsylvania.
The expectation of live foxes has
become so active in northern AL
