   The weasel is a very wicked animal. There was a man cutting hay one day and he cut over a weasel's nest. He had a tin can of milk and the mother weasel began to spit into it. When she came back she found that the man had fited up her nest. She went to the tin can was was at it until she spilled it so that the man would not be poisoned. It is very seldom you would get a ferret around here. There is a cure in the leavings of a ferret for chin cough. The hare is a very swift animal he lives mostly on grass.
