though she ran away from him she
didn't leave the Old Pasture.
At last Reddy had to stop to rest.
He sat down with his tongue hanging
from his mouth. for he was quite out
of breath and tired. He was disap-
pointed and discouraged. He had done
his best. his very best, but in spite of
this he had not been able to get any
nearer the beautiful stranger, and it
seemed to him now that this was the
one thing he wanted most in all the
! world. Presently he had that funny
feeling again. that feeling of being
watched He turned his head quickly.
There, peering around the edge of a
pig rock, was the face of the stranger.
She had stolen back and was watching
him ttmidly Reddy had a funnier feel
ing than ever. You will never guess
what that feeling was. 1t was q feel
ing of bashfulness. Yes. sir, for the
first time in his life Reddy Fox felt

If YOU were on F street Wednesday
morning just when the sun was giving an
advance touch of spring you probably
saw Dandy. And it is equally probable
that Dandy saw you. From Bertiiion
point of view Dandy was a dog about
dozen inches long; his white. woolly neck
was tied with pink satin ribbon, and his
caperings had all the charm of a baby
that toddles away from Its nurse-and
Dandy had two. Both were young women
in skirts short enough to show gray silk
and gun metal, and straw hats swamped
in flowers that nature never grew, ana
each tried to keep Dandy in the way he
should go. The trouble was that the gay
little thing wanted to go in every direc-
ton of the hundred or so people who
paid tribute to him in the course of
square.
AT one blessed instant when the at
tention of his chaperons was diverted by
a young man who had paused for greet
ings, Dandy battered after two women
ahead In answer to his snappy zap, one
of the women looked behind, and obvious
ly took to herself the glory of Turing the
small thing from its path of duty:
'sYou cute little darling. you! Go

Maybe she had the power, all right, but
by that time Dandy's owners had come
up. and as one swooped the dog in her
arms the other explained:
He runs after everybody he sees!"
Then the Ann woman treated herself to
grin and the one with magnetism on
tap looked as if she was sorry she had
spoken.
A small. precise looking woman
walked up and down the corridor of the
post Office. in search of something she
couldn't lind.

Agricultural possibilities never will he
realized until farming is made a big
business. organized and systematized and
developed along scientific lines. 1t is a.
far cry from the day of the charcoal
blast furnace to the great steel mills of
the present What organized capital has
done for the iron business it could do for
farming. 1t is as legitimate a field for
exploiting as any other. Capital would
reap from it a double reward. 1t would
lind safe and profitable employment in
agriculture itself, and it would make
safer and larger the profits from its
other enterprises by assuring a cheap
and abundant food supply for the indus
trial toilers Of the nation.
Take, for instance, the several million
OF acres of idle farm land in tidewater
Virginia 1t would seem to offer an OPP
portunity specially designed for farm
ing on a billion-dollar scale All the

be distributed throughout the populous
manufacturing sections west to PITTS

pay salaries which would attract to its
service the nations greatest agricultural
experts. 1t would have soil surveys
made, so that each acre might be used
to the best advantage and its operations
would be SO designed that everything 1t

possible finished product. Wheat would
be marketed as flour: corn and forage
crops as dressed beef and pork and
mutton. Fruit and vegeta bles which
could not be marketed fresh would be
canned or otherwise preserved Poultry
and dairy products would be ready for
the consumer when they left the farm.
The corporation would carry its products
to the distributing centers in its own
ships, and, acting as its own distributor.
