The Cows
TEIJDIE
BY Helen NJ. Richardson

Into the barn at close of day
The mild eyed cattle come,
one by one;
Soberly into the stalls they stray
Munching their cuds, at the
set of sun.
Bess and Daisy stand close be-
side
Switching their tails in friend
ly way:
Molly and Susan with quiet pride
Into their stanchions at ran
dom stray.
Maud and Nancy in awkard
haste
Stumble in thru the wide barn
door;
Wandering Gypsy is homeward
chased.
The last to blunder across the
floor.
Swish, swish, swish, into the
pals.
In rhythmic motion of hands
well skilled,
Splashes the milk, while the
nervous tails

Flap and flop till the pals are
filed.
Then quiet reigns and the cattle
rest:
Through the dark the barn
rat roams unawed,
All undisturbed in it's midnight
quest

eyed Maud.

Attendance IS Per Cent

The sixth and seventh grades
won the last half holiday of the
school term, having the lowest
number of absences and tardy
markes of any of the rooms.
The combined grades, an enroll
ment of about eighty pupils and
have gained three half holidays
during the term. They are a
fine school of boys and girls, and
merit the above tribute of praise.

Stock Farming

The Panhandle has been just
ly termed the paradise of the
stockman." Here nature seems
to have conspired for the enrich.
ment of the cattle and hog rails
err, furnishing the most nutriti'
Gus grasses for the growing OF
cattle and hogs at the lowest
cost of production, together with
the most favorable climate con-
ditions.
Disease among cattle is rarely
found, and hogs have never been
known to die of cholera. The
present grade of hogs and cattle
now to be found in the Pan
handle can not be excelled in
the United States.
A further advantage to be
found here in the raising Of hogs
is the value of alfalfa meadows
for grazing during the winter
and early spring. Hogs will do
well on alfalfa the year round,
and when finished off on feed
stuffs, such as milo maize, kaffir
corn and Indian corn, top the
market.

Turner's in 1909 WAS 4TS, while they got
AL last night.
The Elks had lots OF rooters there,
too. There were two teams from the
Green street organization and much
sorrow was expressed when none cap
tured watch-fobs. Weber, who ac-
counted for 20. seemed to be chief
mourner.
The bowlers to get over the century
mark last night were Peter Nothnagel

GRAND

In spite OF numerous counter at
fractions, there was a good crowd in
attendance at the Grand last night.
and an excellent show is reported by
those present.
Thompson & Farrell, high class
English trayesty entertainers, present
ing their one act comedy creation,
1.-The Making OF Bubbles" offer some
thing not only out of the ordinary,
but versatile and very entertaining.
Their comedy is mirth-provoki1g in
the extreme, and their limitations and
singing exceptionally good.
Wyliss Barnes, 1.-The Human Horn"
presents a very clever act, introducing
novel and comic musical limitations,
witty monolog, trick bone and guitar
solos. AS a single performer he is
an entertainer in a class by himself
and was very heartily received last
night.
Miss Marcellus is suffering from a
severe cold and worked to great dis
advantage last night.
The picture program is excellent,
and all in all this show is one that
will attract large audiences to the
Grand the rest of the week.
