fruilless hunt after stray stock-remark
that FARMERS who knew Of stray stock

up, post and advertise them - said he,

have not found it | would sooner have
paid S25 than lost the time, and like as
not the colt is within twenty miles of
here now" We do not see why some
men will not take up strays, when what
money they invest brings an interest of
so per cent. and is a great favor to the
owner of the animal in finding il and
