car outside and in a mnttor of seconds someone was honking a horn that in it self annoyed us partner made no attempt to go out if anyone out there is wanting either of us ho can come to the house ho said ihe horn wont on honking then i began to wonder maybe some- 1 dne is hurt perhaps one of us should go out so i opened the front door and called immediately a man got out of the car or rath- er panel truck for that is what it wns he was smartly dressed in fact a little on the flashy side but made no attempt to come to the house instead of that ho call ml out have you got any eggs to kcir inoj i answered short ly none at all any ducks or geese maybe no i repeated nothing nt all we dont do business on sun- dnya oh oh i see responded the caller and with that he climbed hack into his truck nnd rlmvo down the lane at a pretty fast clip and was gone before i could call partner to the door tills little episode may have been on the level maybe the man renlly was looking for egga on the other hnnd if after honking his horn loud nnd long no one nvpparod he might have assumed no one wns at home in which cnie he tould have done n little investigating on his own which might not have been too profltnhlc for us after nil the idea is not too fnff tched so often arm people are away be tween chores on sundays nnd peo ple going by would think nothing of seeing a small truck in n drlve- wn nor would they be suspicious of nnvone walking around- farm premises in hrond daylight anyway hints that nnd it could be there l a moral for drhexs in that little storj if nothing die that is to honk your horn is not only bad manners it enn also arouse suspicion and now just in case you would ilko to know the end of my cat story maybe i had bettor toll you thnt mnrk the one kitten that re mained alive last week has sur vived and i renlly think he must hove established something of o record because he went for six days and nights without eating or j drinking in all that time the only nourishment he got wns what i gave him by moans of a medicine dropper i also gave him a one- drop dose severnl time a day of a wellknown veterinary mcdlolne which most farmers keep on hand all the time but then while i wns doctoring the kitten his moth er died since whisky had bwn given a hot and was never sick at all it was quite a shock when j she moped nround for only a few hours nnd then quietly passed awn so now we nre reduced to one cat and one kitten i taking it all round we had quite a time with our livestock inst week there was the night when we moved one pen of pullets to their winter qunrters moving the ones that were in the pen wns as but there wero others roost ing in tree thnt we just coudnt get so the next morning there were still thirtytwo running a round the next night i under took to see thnt the rt mnlnlng put- i lets didnt roost in the trees be- ufe me i got plentv of exei else it developed into a sort of 4 ndur- anre test the chickens were de termined to get into the treea i whs qunllv determined thnt thev shouldn t so i ran from tree to tree and the chickens flew up or f l w down according to where they were vi hen i tried shooing them lnlo th pen we kept it up for over nn hour nnd there are still m nt large these pullets nre a lireed we hnve never tried before and probnblv n ver will again ihe are hybrids a cross between mm red hoc ks nnd whit leghorns diev are the scariest birds you ever knew now the nre in their winter quarters we knock nt the door before entering the pen walk in without warning nnd they fly all over the pen battering

happened to look out of the pantry window just in time to sec norma make u bolt for the hnrnvard with bih running out of the truck against his will but htlll hanging on to the rope poor norma it didnt
