that ! have been bewitched. and wish
you would give me something against
it, was the close of letter received
by State Zoolcgist Surface. The let
ter came from farmer in the eastern
part of the state. The man says that
In year he has lost three farms, his
horses died, his hens grew fat and
would not lay, his SQUAD factory
turned out a dismal failure, and his
bees proved worthless, while porkers
of the same breed that used to yield
2sO pounds at nine months now gave
only 1C0 pounds at year.
Surface says the man had been try
ing to do too many things at once, and
he will write him and tell him to spe
cialize, but the state will not stand fol
the witch.
