I have fired a double-barrelled gun into them, loaded with fine shot, and it had the same exilirating effekt on them, that 4 quarts ov oats would hav, on an old hoss, it made them more lively for a fu minnits.
I hav seen ded hawks, but i never shed enny tears over them.
I dont surpose that even hen hawks are made in vain, but i hav wondered, if just enuff ov them, tew preserve an assortment, wouldn’t answer.
THE MEDDO MOLE.
The meddo mole iz either a small rat, or a big mouse, i dont kno which.
They hav some soft, silken fur, and dig in the ground for a living.
They kan bore a hole in the ground fazter than a 2 inch augur kan, and kan travel klear akrost a 10 aker lot, in one night, and never cum once tew the surface.
They dont have enny eyes, but see with their ears, and kan see more without seeing anything, than enny rat in amerika.
How a meddo mole kan see with their ears iz one ov naturs misterys, and natur luvs misterys, it iz the misterys ov natur that makes mankind respektful.
If natur showed all the kards she held in her hand most enny boddy would think they could beat her.
