prove good thing for the United

the day was done there were no visi-

dine with neighbor or took friend
home with him, had gone with his
horse and put in the day--one of the
prettiest of Spring working the road

seen that something was accomplished
However, man did not see fit to do it
that way and his sound judgment has,
no doubt, found the proper means by
which to accomp'is this work.

turned their cattle out to grass. Mr..
