FATTY LEARNS SOMETHING
ABOUT EGGS.

When Fatty Coon started off alone
to find something more to eat, aftel
finishing the fish that his mother haC
brought home for him. he did not know
that he was going to have an adven
ture. He nosed about among the
bushes and the tall grasses and caught
a few bugs and frog or two. But he
didn't think that that was much. He
didn't seem to have much luck, down
on the ground. So he climbed tall
hemlock, to see if he could find a
squirrels nest or some birds eggs.
Fatty loved to climb trees. UP in the
big hemlock he forgot, for time, that
he was still hungry. 1t was delightful
to feel the branches swaying under
him, and the bright sunshine was
warm upon his back. He climbed al
most to the very tip top of the tree and
wound himself around the straight
STEM The thick, springy branches
held him safely and soon Fatty was
fast asleep Next to eating, Fatty loved
sleeping. And now he had a good nap.
Fatty Coon woke up at last, yawn.
ed and slowly unwound himself from
the stem of the tree. He was terribly
hungry now. And he felt that he
simply must find something to eat at
once.
Without going down to the ground,
Fatty climbed over into the top of an
other big tree and his little beady,
bright eyes began searching all the
branches carefully. Pretty soon Fat
ty smiled He smiled because he was
pleased And he was pleased because
he saw exactly what he had been look
ing for. Not far below him was a big
nest, built of sticks and lined with
bark and moss. 1t was a crows nest,
Fatty decided, and he lost no time In
slipping down to the crotch of the tree
where the nest was perched.
There were four white eggs in the
nest the biggest crows eggs Fatty
had ever seen. And he began to eat
them hungrily. His nose beacme smear
ed with egg, but he didn't mind that at
all. He kept thinking how good the
eggs tasted = and how he wished there
were more Of them.

CLAIM FARMER is
STARVING HORSES

FeIIE. req. ~. - SudIles noos'
borough, well to do farmer living
southwest of this city, was arrested
upon Information sworn out by local
veterinarian and c. NJ. Young. secre-
tary of the Iowa Humane society.
Rosborough Is accused of failing to
provide feed and shelter tor his horses.
a large number of which have died
from exposure during the last few
weeks.
Rosborough owns farm Of 100 acres
and Is engaged extensively in the rails
ing of horses. He raises large num-
Der Of them, but so far as is known
has never sold any. Horse buyers
and neighbors have made frequent
visits to his place in an effort to pur-
chase stock, but to all he has given
the same answer-none of them are
for sale.
Rosborough has as high as 1875 head
of horses on the farm at times and
there are probably seventy or eighty
there now He allows them to run in
the pastures and timber, getting what
feed they can from the grass and
pile Of straw.
When the recent sleet and snow
storm came the horses could not get
anything to eat, and many of them
died from starvation and exposure.
Thirteen animals were found dead in
one pasture and IT. is thought there are
many others In different parts of the
farm.
When arraigned Rosborough pleaded
not guilty and said he would fight the
case. He declares that the horses he.
long to him and that he will look after
them as he sees fit. Rosborough is a
bachelor and lives in small shack on
the farm.
