portunities. It's to be a
special week-in goods that
come and go with the week
at prices that only a series of
price demolishing events
fire, failure, and auctions
together could make.
These ominous words tell
OF losses the public little I'M

Enveloped in such misfor-

firm is to sell out-sacrihce-
do everything or anything to
get the stock remaining off
their hands. And the Ill wind
that brings loss to some,
brings gain to others. To

values in linens and hand
kerchiefs specially, that will
not be equalled in many sea-

LOCAL AFFAIRS.
Great Milk Shortage.
WRITTEN FOR THE BEE I

WRITTEN FOR THE BEE
Doesn't seem as If we were to have
much rain this summer, does 1t? A
shortage in pasture will make milk drop
off and the income of every maker OF
milk will suffer. A fat purse makes
tIumbl'pg everywhere. Why rot be
warned in time to plant corn for feeding
IN dry weather? High prices for milk
are likelv to prevail because of the scar
city. If you can keep up the f1ow b.
feeding green crops that coat nothing, a
good income is assured you; an income
larger than you could get in a moist aea-
9On of plenty for everybody. And, last
call, why not be warned in time to SOW
hungarian grass on rich, well-prepared
land, to help winter stock? Stock ia high
and the outlook Ia that it will go higher
till and stay higher, Where is the hay
for next winter coming from? We can
not afford to sacrifice stock in autumn
because we have an insufficient supply
Of fodder. The stock man who has plen-
ty to feed his cows this dry summer and
the following scarce winter ia the man
who will make money Jabez.

suspended by it.
Then the hook was pulled out by his
weight, and he fell to the ground. Quite
a severe flesh wound was caused, the
blood flowing copiously. The boy was
also somewhat stunned by his fall. DIR.
