this is gone the taxpayers will have to

Il am herder and gather cattle in the
spring from large extent of country.
They of course vary in condition. Last
spring the pasture was short; so let
them run at large. The ground is rolling

which hold water all summer. In June
some yearlings died. Could notice IN the
morning some would seem dumpish or
lame and before night probably die. ap-
parently painless. One quarter (no par
ticular one) would be swollen and black,
and, when cut into. discharge q watery

early at night and kept them until late IN
the morning. They stopped dying. Later
gave more liberty. and in August did

calves were dying. Some would be Affect
