Westside has resolved the question of
securing the largest yield from live stock

stepped for the calf's dinner, and derives
" 10 per day clear profit from the trans
action. This, il must be admitted, is
rather thin diet, especially for the calf.

ward movement that tends to lessen liv-
living expenses. Olympia's olden time
