SOME FOX STORY
kentucky Farmers Kill Reynard with
Ptchforks

A thousand farmers, mounted on
fleet horses, armed with pitchforks
and accompanied by dogs, today made
a raid on Kentucky river cliffs. in Ow-
en- county, where for many years hun.
dreds of foxes have had their dens,
and slaughtered many of the little
pests. Today's drive was the result
of a public call, issued early in the
week to the farmers of Owen and ad-
joining counties, where for months
farmers have suffered heavy losses to
their sheep fiocks and poultry yards,
and the answer was immediate. Fox.
es were starting from their dens in in
accessible parts of cliffs, killing lambs
and poultry and then getting to their
dens before the farmers could get
their guns II action. This winter dep
relations were so serious that today s
heroic measure was adopted
Farmers dogs jumped several foxes
on their way to the dens, and finally
drove foxes back into natural de-
preston in such way that it was
easy to kill them. OF course, there
are many left, but farmers fear no
more raids on their lambs or poultry.

but did not affect him. One day forty
two years later he was laughing at his
old time prophecy and boastiiG of his
good health In his happy mood he
bought an old cottage from \ friend
and straigbtway went to inspect it. Ia
the garden there was a quantity of oil
iron and among it a shell dating from
1866. He picked it up and was exam
lining it when 1t exploded. aud he was
