1 tell YOU they almost flew. "a s
But Mack and Dell were most too
young,
Scott was getting most too old
To track it up was a difficult task,
For the track was awful cold.
I built me up little fire,
To keep away the gnats,
I hitched Molly to a fine bush,
For the dogs had almost hushed.
1 sat down by my little fire,
And heard old Scott bark,
And then heard all three,
And my blood began to run colo,
When Dell barked as if to say,
That fox is not far away.
By this time they began to run,
To me it was lots of fun,
Scott was getting very old,
But believed he would
Chase him to his hole. Y
Some other dogs Joined in the
race
Somewhat behind and on train.
For Dell had no wings at all,
But got there just the same.
The boot owls hollered,
And the night hawks screamed,
And the whip-poor-will crowded for
day,
And in lonely spot,
And my dogs far away.
The dawn Of day was here at last,
I could not hear hound,
For Mack and Dell run SO fast
They put him on the ground.
Tired and sleepy lying on the ground,
Listening for the bark of a hound,
] got hungry and tired of my place,
I blew my horn and ended the chase

THE STIRRING FOX CHASE
Old Hunter of Crab Orchard
Breaks Into Verse On Subject

Up at Crab Orchard the old time
fox hunters are awaiting with eager
ness the coming of the National Fox
Hunters association there in a few
weeks. Every fox hunter in this
section will be interested in the fol-
lowing by w. w. Menefee in the Crab
Orchard Sun. He writes:
The Fox Chase
have been mediating of days long
gone by when we used to meet on
the Piney Spurs to listen to the melo-
dy of the fond music of the hounds
on the chase. Many the times were
when E. H. Walker, T. Medicines,
James Ramsey, J. T. Chadwick,
George Gooch and others would '
there and hear the sound of swe
music of the hounds from afar, ana
while the dogs were on the hunt they
would love to hear my fox chase in
rhyme. II was very pleasing to have
it sung and while the hours away.
The rhyme follows:
When ! was hunting far from home
Especially in the night,
A fear comes over my poor soul,
Whether l am wrong or whether in
the right,
/ was in the woods one night
The moon shone beautiful and bright,
And there had thought
There couldn't be no harm in inno-
cent delight,
Cheered with these feelings of delight
Four or five miles from home,
l came to an open field,
Where ! knew the red fox roamed
My mare was going in a walk,
My dogs they began to bark,
There is Scott and Dell,
And there is Mack.
/ knew from their bark it was a
cold track.
Not far away from where they were,
There was large cliff of rock,
/ believed If they ever could reach
that cliff, si-s
They would jump that old red fox,
For Mack and Dell were fine little
hounds, Y. y,
And they were true,
And when they struck an old red
fox,

BOIL WEEVIL is TAX
ING A HEAVY TOLL

The heaviest "first crop" infesta-
ton of cotton boil weevils on record
is now general in all the counties of
Mississippi south of Tupelo and
Clarksdale, according to the field
agent of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. The weather
favors still further propagation. Many
farmers, because of the production
of the past two years, believed that
they could henceforth grow cotton
without fear of this pest. The de-
partment has, of course, continued to
advocate the growing of cotton under
precautions against weevils and is
now pushing such control measures
as the available.

HOW cow TESTING
HELPS CREAMERIES

Twelve per cent of the patrons OF
the cooperative creamery of Dover,
Mimi, are members of the local cow
testing association. Though only 12
per cent of the number. they receive
about sc per cent of the money paid by
the creamery to its patrons. This is
not because of larger herds, but be
cause of better COWS and better dairy
practices.
In January the returns to dairymen
who belonged to the cOw-testing asso-
citation were S14.19 per cent, while the
returns to nonmembers were S5.95 per
COW. At the same rate the returns for
a year would be almost 500 per COW
more for the herds belonging to asso-
citation members. This was brought
about by eliminating low producers
and feeling the remainder according to
known production.
During the year 1914 the creamery
produced 243,00O pounds of butter.
For 1917 the quantity increased to
100000 pounds. AS the number of
cows was approximately the same for
the two years, the gain was due to in
creased production per COW and not to
an increased number of cows. Not
only was there a gain in business for
the creamery but the patrons were
better satisfied, because they received
larger returns

COUNTERFEITING SCHEME
Parties Said to be Changing One and
Two Dollar Bills Into Tens
and TWenties.

Some person or persons in Whining
ton or in the territory convenient to
the city are trying to pull off a slick
counterfeiting scheme, according to
Wilmington banks, some of the Off
cials of which say that an attempt has
been made to convert 81 and 50 bills
into denominations of greater value by
clipping the corners from $40 and $40
bills and pasting them on the corners
of the smaller bills.
OF course the scheme and the work
is too crude to get by the banks, but
ii is said the work is so well done in
some instances as to deceive and get
by sometimes in the marts of trade, the
altered bills sometimes reaching the
banks, where the work of the counter
feiters is of course detected, and the
bills thrown out.
The engravings are in the same re-
latiye positions on the smaller and
larger bills, and have tempted the get
rich-quick artists to try their work
in increasing the circulating medium.
Federal authorities are investigating
and it is only a matter of time when
the guilty parties will be facing judge
and jury in a United States court,
with prospects of a sojourn at Atlanta
or some other prison where Uncle
Sam sends offenders, for work and
time to think and repent.
