Keep Your Cattle Out Of Your
Neighbors Premises.

Now is the time of year when
selfish farmers will turn ont their
cattle upon the public roads to
roam at liberty into neighbor ;
fields, tramp down their gardens,
destroy the shrubbery on the
lawns and otherwise damage
their neighborS. These cows aud
cattle can be put up, advertised
and make the owners prove prop
