HERE'S A FUNNY COW.
Discards Her Calf and Nurses Litter
of Five Pigs.

o. E. Ellis, the lawyer, owns a g.
year-old COW that is. to say the least,
a peculiar bovine. The COW has
calf over four weeks old, and there is
a litter of five pigs in the barn lot that
are about the same age as the calf.
The COW has to be, tied while the calf
is permitted to suck. and Mr.. Ellis is
afraid to turn the calf in the lot with
the COW, fearing that the COW will kill
it. The COW has laid claim to the litter
of pigs, and when the pigs are alb
sent, the COW runs up and down the
fence apparently in a distracted frame
of mind, believing in distress. The
pigs stand up on their hind legs and
suck the COW, resting their front feet
against the cow.-Chanute Tribune.

most perfect fruit. and such trees are
less liable to damage from insect or
