Mark Twain gave pleasure real

He never wrote a line that father

He has made an enduring part OF

charged per head has risen from 65
cents to s1.45, while in Australia the
maintenance charge is only so
cents per head; the tariff must equal

charge in Montana approximates $12

before profits begin. Risk of loss
must also be considered. The settle

The increasing of meat will, how
