But Madam Hen knew not Of the
dangers that awaited her. For Mr..
Fox had left his home that morning
with the intention Of bringing back
for his dinner a nice plump hen. and
Madam Hen was very plump.

where the worms were, and hardly

But when Mr.. Fox came to a stream

chickens and listened.

the nest this morning."
"Tll tell you what I'll do," he said.
IF you will take me to the nest I'll

Madam Hen waited minute and

Mr.. Fox should have known that a

things, SO he took up the bag and
started back.

Central Japan Prosperous.

The people Of central Japan. where
some Of the principal agricultural dis
tricts are located. appear prosperous
and contented and crop prospects are
favorable. due to the fact that the
farmers had money with which to buy
fertilizers and have given their crops
excellent care.
Rice, millet and vegetable crops are
In splendid condition, while the silk
crop is the best in years. Fine, large
cocoons are the result Of well fertilized

CANADA BIG WINNIE R
Captures Many Prizes at Lead

Remarkable Showing Made at lnterna.
tlonal Live Stock Show at Chi
easo-carried Off Sweepstakes
For All Wheat.

Something that lends emphasis to,
and affords definite proof Of, the gen.
er0sity of the soil and climate of
western Canada, Is shown by the
numerous exhibits made by both the
government and individual farmers
and stock raisers of that country, at
many Of the leading state and county
fairs in the United States this season.
Particularly Is this the case with re-
gard to exhibits made at the Inter
national Live Stock Show recently
held at Chicago.
First and foremost to the average
farmer will appeal the fact that
Canada carried Off the sweepstakes
for all wheat. and that out Of total
Of twenty-five prizes, Canada took
twenty. In oats the Grand Champion
ship was won by farmer living in
the Province Of Alberta. Canada also
was awarded the championship for
Durum wheat, while for Flint Corn out
Of total of ten prizes, Canada took
flrst. second, third, sixth and seventh.
Not only in grains did Canada prove
her right TO rank as first class .agri-
cultural country, but she carried of
many prizes for cattle, horses, sheep
and hogs, a partial list of which fol-
lows:
Cattle, Canada was awarded the
championship for Grade Shorthorns,
also in the College Special class, Can
ada gained first, fourth and sixth
prizes.
Horses, Grand Championship for
Clydesdale stallion, also Grand Cham
pionship for American bred mare, as
dale stallion, first for one-year-old
Clydesdale stallion, and second for
the aged class.
In the Belgian class. Canada OBJ
tained first and reserve for Champion
ship Belgians, as we'll as second for
Aged stallion.
Sheep, Canada obtained Champion
ship for block, male and female, in ad-
dition to first prize IN all group
prizes.
Hogs, in the Yorkshire class Canada
was very prominent, taking the Cham
pionship for pen of Yorkshires, and
Championship for best single barrow,
as well as over twenty first. second
and third prizes in other classes OF
Yorkshires.
With regard to the live stock shown
1t must be borne In mind that these
have not been fed on corn, on which
the average western farmer places his
reliance, but on the wonderful oats
and barley grown in western Canada
supplemented by the native grasses
of which most artistic display was
made by our neighbors to the north
Canada has conclusively proved that
not only can she take prizes for the
grain she raises, but can also take
prizes with the animals to which
these grains have been fed. and this
