he says his hope will be realized.
Muldoon has high opinion OF Al Pal

that they are still too young to be sent

"I don't believe that PalSer should be
allowed to fight for the championship un-

Muldoon by the way, was really the
only trainer who was able TO dictate to

feared the big wrestler and oheyed or

A few hours ride in an automo.
bile will generally show great off
ference in the manner of working
the roads, especially in the building
OF culverts and bridges. Just what
can cause an apparently intelligent
road supervisor to leave a plank
bridge five or six inches higher than
the grade or sewer pipe without
any earth covering is something that
calls for some guessing.
We are thankful to Jack Frost for
hitting the fly such a tremendous
swat, but it must be remembered
that he could not do this without TAX
ing the strength out of most of the
feed in the pastures and fields. Milk
cows will need little more feed at
the barn after this in order to do
their best at the pail.
Many silos will be filled with FROST
bitten corn this year. This is a new
experience to most of the silo men in
this vicinity and will be watched with
interest by those who intend to build. |
It might be well to note the differ.
ence in the silage where a liberal
amount of water was used at the
time of filling and where there was
none.
Any time from now until snow
flies will do for cleaning up the road
sides and fence rows and no one will
say that it is not good work if well
done, but it is a little like strewing
flowers on the coffin of a neighbor
with whom no friendly word was
passed before it was too late.
