HERE'S AN AUTAUGA COUNTY cow
 THAT BREAKS ALABAMA RECORD

liability of the record, she has three proofs of 1t.
 One morning last week. early, MT. Pratt made a visit to his stables. He does this frequently before breakfast to look about and see the stock are well cared for. When he came to the stall of Daisy, she greeted him with triumphant moo" which could be heard a mile. He looked in her stall, and there were three little Daisies, all except one which. owing to his sex, will have to be christened some other name.
 Mir Pratt thought at first some one mad been playing a trick on him. He looked into the stalls of other cattle, but his search was unrewarded. There was no doubt that Daisy alone was the responsible party. Besides, her look of pride and exultation were in them selves proof sufficient.
 Three calves from one COW is be- Iieved to be a record breaker in Ala bama.

Daniel Pratt, of Prattville, has a curiosity It is a COW. Mir. Pratt has never had anything which has made the envious eyes of his neighbors open wider than this COW. For this COW is a wonder. Her name is Daisy

But there the likeness to oth- CTS of her sex and kind ceases, for Daisy is not an ordinary cow She is something to be proud of, some thing for people to go miles to see and then to stop and gaze upon when they have seen her.
 Mir. Pratt, by the way, does not take anv credit upon himself for the COW. He deserves no credit except In so far as she has been raised on his own farm. The COW is deserving of credit She stands on her feet. and does not neea the boosting of anyone to establish her claim as a world beater. She can rest on her record and as to the re
