ISLAND AREA

The number of foxes that can be kept on a given area depends large ly on the denning grounds, the number of feeding places, and the attention given. When fed at var ious locations on the island, foxes become accustomed to the feeding places and make their homes not far away, Even on the larger is lands the dens are found in prox- unity to the feeding places. There is no immediate cause for concern about overcrowding. It has been estimated by the ranchers on the smaller islands, example, those containing 40, 50 or 50 acres-that between 150 and 200 foxes can be maintained if properly fed.

burning, was a sea of hidden oil. The

Shiny with it. The work of years was

that which now took place the early
days following the Run in 80 were
idyllic. They swarmed on Oklahoma
from every state in the Union. The
plains became black with little eager
delving figures. The sanguine roads
were choked with every sort of vehicle.

"Ozark milling days" are recalled
in an article in the Arcadian Maya
zine:
1.-Two or three generations ago, the
mill was vigorous community CEN
ter, the popular meeting place for all
classes and conditions of men. 1t was
no uncommon thing to ride 80 miles
to mill and camp two or three days
while waiting a turn. The burrs
ground slowly and quite often the
output did not exceed two or three
bushels an hour. This gave oppor-
tunity for amusement and social con-
facts. 1t was a great place to play
marbles, pitch horseshoes, to play rus
tic pranks, swap news, stories and
jacknives. Sometimes there were
fights, for hill blood is fighting blood.
but. for the most part, the men fought
fair.
AT midnight on Saturday night
the watergate was closed and not
opened until the following Monday
morning. The closed gate formed an
excellent fish trap and often the catch
was good. 1t was the custom at one
mill to auction Off the fish that
might be caught over the Sabbath to
the highest bidder. The auction was
held on Saturday afternoon before
the gate was closed and if no fish
happened to get in, the successful bid
der paid just the same.
Sometimes the mill floor was used
for the dance when the dsY's x5.a

Properly Southern State.

The original Mason-Dixon line was
the boundary line between Pennsyl-
vania and Maryland; just before the
Civil war the line was accepted as
the dividing line between free and
slave states. The states generally re-
garded as southern are Virginia, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Ala
bama, Tennessee, Mississippi, Texas.
Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Mis-
souri,, Kentucky, Maryland and Della
ware. The Mississippi river, which
forms the eastern boundary Of Mis-
souri,, does not change its name. The
Missouri river divides the state, but
the whole of Missouri is considered
as a southern or border state.

Erv Wissler, the gawk who delivered
the milk to Sabra's door each morning,
found himself owner of gusher whose
outpourings yielded him seven thou

grasp it.
"Why, Erv!" Sabra exclaimed, when
he arrived at her kitchen door as
usual, smelling of the barnyard.
"Seven thousand dollars day! What

Every one in Usage knew the story
of Fred Sloat's wife when the news
