SUPREMACY OF CAROLINAS Pinehurst Berkshire Herd Blue Ribbon Winners at Big State Fairs Clean Sweep for Products JBred and II aided hy Village in Keenest Competition in History NO LONGER is the su premacy of the Pine- hurst Berkshire herd questioned in either of the Carolinas, this year's IT J i Wlns at both big State 22M fair8' caPturing all but 13 three, of the blue rib- lrffi bons offered ; every ex hibit except the two herd boars being bred and raised at Pmehurst. The only two firsts going outside the Pinehurst herd, were won' by an Ohio breeder, one edged boar taking first in class and champion ship ; every other class shown by the same breeder taking second.

Kesponding to the wild sight halloo, the pack was soon in pursuit and reynard was forced to resort to crafty manoeuvers from swamp to countryside road and back ag in in a futile effort to lose the scent in the most difficult of trailing ground. Time and again he darted down sandy roads, doubled back and slunk to cover, creeping to swamp as the hounds swept past, only to be routed again and again, often in full sight of the hunt. Comprehending, however, the pack spread wide, making the double ineffect ual by catching the fresh scent at the point of return, and reynard's hours of existence were reduced to minutes few, in which one of the fastest runs in the history of the local hunt brought three hours' sport to a thrilling climax. The fox was one of the old settlers which Master Twitty declares he has never found except in the immediate vicinity of Pinehurst. ''There must be some red blood in them," he says, "for they not only possess speed and craft, but remarkable endurance. To be sure the swamp lands have something to do with the length of the runs, but at the same time. I have never found elsewhere grey foxes which could keep such a pack as the present one moving as those hounds moved for three full hours. Be cause the fox was so frequently in sight the hunt was one of the most exciting 1 have ever enjoyed."' On a later hunt a youngster ran a rol licking chase of an hour and a half, in troducing something new in railroad track walking in a final attempt to throw the pack. As a last resort he climbed a slanting tree and jumped to the adjoining top of a pine, satisfied that the race was won. Things looked different however, when Huntsman Nat came clambering up and preferring death to disgrace, foxy leaped wildly only to fall into the very midst of the pack. Mrs. "Jack" Drefoos of New York, first to reach the quarry, was awarded the brush. Return to Red Gables Mrs. Emma J. Sinclair and Mrs. Mar tha S.
