No Tall pnnr rhinr.

There was born on the ranch Of Victor
Piezza, near town, last week, a calf with
absolutely no tail. aud otherwise per-
fectly formed. This freak Of nature "
owned in Santa Rosa. His calfship
starts out in the race Of life against al
most overpowering odds--odds sufficient
to discourage any ordinary or average
calf, but this calf is by no means an or

his mark In life. 1t would be an act Of
simple justice to see that this particular
calf is given more than his usual share
