A MURDERoUs LOOKING SHOT GUN
Within reach didn't waste any
time in disputing the accuracy oil
The statement. There are times
that vou go ont TO interview a
man IN Hooking county when il
is the part of wisdom to agree
with what he says. This was
one of them.
OF course there are a good
many curious things TO be seen
about a farm which stands al an
angle OF SO TO the horizon, and
Ellengowan Heights are no eX-

But 1t is a great consolation TO
know that when you crawl up
one side, in the very heat OF the
reign of Sirius, and eat baked
that all you have TO
do is to crawl down on the other
side and dig sherry cobbler out
of the perpetual glaciers.
But il is not my object TO write
a puff for Green's farm. 1t Is
not on the market. He refused
$50 for it last week. My object
is rather to tell something about
his latest and most important
discovery, which goes 10 show
that
