lroni the middle West I noted the
followlng.:~ _-~_-.- -
“Wis}t'onsin has over a ml-llion
and in halt dairy cows- more
cows than any other state in_tho
union and much better cows. They
are estimated to be woith $71.-
000,00 and their products an-
iiuually- yield ~a cash income of
$85,000,000. Every farm has
an average of nine cows
and they are the biggest
single' asset' lu the state.
For pioducing wealth gold
mines do not compare with dairy-
ing when the coniitions are fav-
trrable.” » - _
'The fox industry is io P. E. ls-1
land what the dalrying is to the middle
west and the tinie~is soon coming
when quality will count just as in
cattle and not as many' seem to think
today, a fox is a fox i'egardlo°.s of
quality. Without question fox farming
has come to slay and P.  Island is
the fountain head of supply for
“ln-eeilers." When ii strangel-
is looking tor' hi'ee'ders- he
looks for not on-ly quality but a re-
cord lback ot the animal to 'be bought; ls
it not an opportune time to consider
tcatuiing ln ilie coming fall season
the' fairs or their'like. whatever you
may call them. _a “fox exhibit" and
offer preiuiuni-' the same as is done
with horses, cattle, sheep, swine and
even poultry? -
This is a veiy much 'larger proposi-
tion for the Islander than he realizes.
but if the' fox farmers would get to-
gether on a sane and sound basis' li
would have much to do with their recov-
ering froin the dazed condition they are
now in after the spectacular flight.
il‘he"SiIver Black Fox proposition has
had' both up and down; it would do
-much to stabilize the industry' if the
people but realized what a good thing
thi# fox industry would mean to thc
Inland us a whole. It is n "gold mine"
in ai safe, conservative wu_V'. not the
“gct rich quick" kind as we often con»
sider a “gold mine” proposition, but
one that luis merit and stability if
properly Imanuged.

Dear Friend, John,- _ ~
`Just a few lilies to let you know I
am sti-ll in the -land of the living and
In good health also hoping these few
line.; will iiud you enjoying the some
blessing.
-I had it letter from home .saying you
were very sick. I trust you are a-1-
right by this tlm`e. l had several colds'
myseilf since coming to France but
have come through alright' ’
I must say l had a good time In Eng-
land. I was there for four1months.
We intended coming to France as a
unit, but our compiiiiy was broken up.
after all that was promised us at the
time of enlisting. -I supposesome ol’
our com-pany are there' yet as' I left
Allie ami Frank and Ewen there.
They were on the police foire. The
moat ot' my friend' arc left behln_d. I
expect to go in the' trenches in u few
days, but I can‘t say just when. I am
very thankful to you for the candy
you sent inte while in England.
This is Saturday afternoon and ii. is
raining. 1I’ve1 just come in after having
a little drill. We have' to drill some
for exercise. it will take nie some
time' to get acquainted with the ofli-
cers and men, but il' think everything
will come out alright. The men are
a line' bunch of fighting fellows from
the officers down' to the prlvates, and
they will make a name for themselves.
Wei had no :mow here yet and I hopc'
we don‘t. have any. We had some frost
it few nights ago and I found it
pretty cold as L was not accus-tamed
to it and the air is much heavier here
thnn_down home. Noiv, I nit.-ii e,Ios<~‘
my letter. l just iiiiislieil inyl e=,upprr.
\Ve had some _nice rico pudding, and
are living pretty high here now. I
weigh 170 lbs, so you sce this kind oi`

ted and feared by the English crown.
The long delay and the death of
Charles Oliphant, a dear brother, in
1799, after a slow decline, inspired her
to compose "The Land o' the Leal,"
which, curious-ly enough, she refused
to give' to the world under hor own
name, choosing for a nom de plume,
the decidedly' plebeian name of "Mis
Hogan. oi’ Bagan." ~
She was the author of -many short
poems of considerable merit, a few of
which, however. are read or known
by the' American' public. but' the uf-
fccting 'and tender lyric, “The Land
O’ the Lent." which was inspired by
hor own sorrows and bereavement.
is still ii household melody, prized
and sung in all the lands in which
the English race are dominant..

There is one person ln the world

There is, of course, the regular cor-
respondence with which you willbe
more or less acquainted' when you
take the place. if you have follow-
ed the advice I have given, this will
be all plain sailing. 'l`ht'~ law is a
good deal like life. Part of the wo`rld
is busily engaged in trying to get
what the other pzirt possesses. l~‘or
this reason thc law steps iii as a re-
presentative oi' justice. As there:
must be l\vo parties to cvory' case, the
fellow who is i__i°_\'_ii_ig to get ivliiit the
