 A MILKMAN'S WOE-J. c. McNul- ty. pi oprietor Of the Enterprise dairy Is in trouble clear up to his nesk. He has been running Q prosperous dairy for long time near Phoenix. and some months ago he sold 1t to a courle of young men. Robert Jones and William cash, with the understanding that the rest was to be paid In installments. The monthly payments were kept n 9 for a time. then Jurgin jumped the game. having collected enough to keep him from suffering. Mir. McNulty agreed to let Jones take up the burden and finish the contract as soon as he could. at tire end of which time the dairy would he his. Finally Jones got weary and failed in his payments. St.li relations were friendly, as Nr. McNultv realized that Jones was at a disadvan- tage- Yesterday Jones sent word to NJ. McNulty that he was ready to throw up the jGo and for him to get another driver. When he returned from his route MT. McNulty had gone into field | to.catch horse, supposing Jones would stay till his return ard they would have a settlement. When he got back Jones was gone and had taken with him the | book with the names Of the patrons of the route in it. It is also presumed that. like Jursin. he had collected enough to keep him from starving. This, however. does not worry MT. Me- Eulty. as the boy has worked hard and at a disadvantage. but he does feel as though taking the book with him is an ungrateful piece of business. for he has paid no attention to the route himself of late. and he is not only liable to lose patronage. but the patrons Win be dis appointed and inconvenienced.
