And there was nothing left for them to d.
But to curl up warm in the basket small,
And wait for the old balloon to fall.
They ate some breakfast and took nap,
And were called at five by thunder clap.
The bears Jumped up with startled look;
They twisted ropes and threw ont hook,
And pulled down flags and frightened strings
And looked aloft and did other things

And ducked the bears in Lake Michigan.

that this would bring the producer a
higher price for his dairy products,

be- performed through the elimination
Of the middle man. But the New York
paper. from which this information is
cleaned says that milk will now be
