permitting it to curve around the arm

DOG BRINGS THE PARDON.
he Drops the Document at the Feet OF
the Convict.

ne Drops the Document at the Feet OF
the Convict.
1t was a dog that brought liberty
to convict in the Kentucky peniten-
tiary recently. The intelligent brute
acted as messenger between Gov.
Brown and the felon, carrying the par
don in it's mouth from the executive
mansion to the prison and, after gain
ing admittance, to the recipient of
cemency himself. The dog is the prop
/ erty OF the governor, and the convict
is o. G. Garden, Of Louisville, who was
sentenced two years ago to serve a
term of eight years for manslaughter.
For some time Garden has been en-
ployed as a ''trusty" at the executive
mansion, doing chores and running err
rands. The dog, fine-looking speci-
men of the shepherd breed, is FAM
lily pet and is unusually intelligent.
TWAS part of Gardens duties to look
after the animal, and they came to be
last friends. When the prison doors
were opened in the morning the collie
was there to meet his convict friend
and accompany him to the mansion.
AT night he returned with his striped
PLAYMATE to the grim portals.
When the pardon was made out it
was suggested that the dog be permit
TED to carry the welcome of freedom
to his devoted friend. The paper was
,hclosed in stout envelope and given
10 the animal, which was told to go to
the penitentiary. With wag of it's
tail it left the mansion and ran down
the old accustomed route to the prison.
a telephone message appraised the
guards of his coming, aud he was adj
mltted without delay.
Garden was in the yard patiently
awaiting the arrival of the governors
messenger, never dreaming that the
Jog had been selected. Catching sight
oi the well-known face the dog ran up
10 the convict and laid the envelope at
ms feet. The glad cry of happy sur
PRISE that the overjoyed prisoner gave
vent to on catching up the official en-

FATTENING HOGS COSTS ONE CENT.
The editor recently heard of a farmer
fattening hogs at less than one cent a
pound. This was made possible through
the sowing of Salzer's King Barley,
yielding over 100 blu. per acre, Golden
Triumph Corn, yielding 200 blu. per
acre, and the feeding on Sand Vetch,
Teosinte, Hundredfold Peas, etc. Now,
with such yields, the growing of hogs is
more profitable than silver mine.
Salzer's catalogue is full of rare
things for the farmer, gardener and cit
izen, and the editor believes that it
would pay everybody hundred-fold to
get Salzer's catalogue before purchas-
ing seeds.
IF YOU WILL CUT THIS OUT AND SEND it
with 10 cents postage to the John A.
Salzer Seed Co., La Crosse, Wis.,, they
will mail you their mammoth seed cata-
logue and 10 samples of grasses and
grains, including above corn and bar
ley. Catalogue alone, 5cpostage. (K)
