Our esteemed neigh Dor, "'rhe

its beading and form. Instead
of a "spank up" four column,
under it's old familiar head it
comes to US this week as a five

"The Hereford Brand. The
insertion of the word Here
ford" is all right but the old
form suited our eye the best. OF

leading this way would cause
