do not, for they only use in business

not advertise for the same reason

read medicine until he is blind and
then know nothing of it. To be sue

that he must have room and oppor-

United States Veterinarian w. F..

South Nebraska.

DR.. w. F. Jones, United States vet
erinarian for the territory north and
west of Norfolk, who has been in this
field for several months, has just re-
ceived word that he is to be transferred
into southern Nebraska and that sue
cessor will arrive shortly to take his
place. The reason for the change is
that the veterinarian coming is mar

DR.. Jones, being unmarried as yet, is
shifted. He has made friends all over
the new northwest who will regret his
departure. He thinks that he will be
transferred to the Pacific coast before
