At first they climbed only after dark lest the sharp eyes of some member of the Hawk family should see them. Danny would climb one plant and Nanny another. There wasn't room for two to sit end eat in comfort on the top of the same flower head, and, any- way, they preferred to each have their own, “I leave the husks of the seeds right where I sit,” said Danny. “What for?” asked Nanny. “Because if I should drop them down on the ground some one might see them and watch for us” explained Dann, “That's a good idea, “rn do the same.” So on the top of each flower head where they were at work was a neat little pile of husks. Farmer Brown's oy them and chuckled. “So this is what has become of those missing seeds from these heads,” said he, “Danny and Nanny Meadow Mouse have discovered them and a way to get them. Well, I guess we can spare what they take.” So Danny and Nanny lived high in two senses of the word. It was rich food and they climbed high to get it. At first all they had to do was to poke their noses over the edge of a flower head and pull out the seeds right under their noses. But when they had taken those nearest they had to reach farther and farther, and this became exciting. They didn't dare go out on the surface of one of those heads for fear that they would fall. So they would hang on to the upper edge with their hind feet and strech as far as they could. When they could get no more seeds in this way they would start on another head. So it was that the upper parts of several heads soon had empty cells instead of seeds. Meanwhile Danny and Nanny were becoming fat with good living. It was no longer so easy to climb those tall stalks or to stretch for seeds. Further- more, they had grown careless. They had done this safely so long that they hardly gave danger a thought. Even in broad daylight they climbed for a feast if they happened to feel hungry. More than this, they came to think of those surifiowers as belonging to them, Peo- ple get that way sometimes, you know. “I wish,” sald Nanny, “that we knew what will happen to those seeds when Winter comes.

Then your research department would seek out the fashion tendencies in Paris, whether dresses were to be knitted wool or woven wool, what col- ors were going to be worn and how many yards of material would be needed in each dress. ‘With this information before you, you would decide how many yards of wool you had better manufacture, what colors to specialize in, whether to make plain wool, plaid wool or »4 ured wool.
