court OF LAST RESORT

1t looks now as though only a
speedy breakup in the way OF
weather would prevent an introduce
ton of the ante bellum method OF
browsing" in order to save the
life of stock, at least in some in
stances.
While many farmers will have
provender enough to see them
through, it is on such a close mar
gin that they have none to spare
their less fortune neighbor who is
now out or will be before the feed
ing season is over.
A resort to browsing should it.
come to this will be new exper-
fence to many of the present-day
farmers, but some of them will re-
member to have heard their fore
fathers tell of the success of such
an expedient in the olden times
when meadows were small and win
ters hard. Cattle are very fond of
some varieties of "browse," sugar,
birch and beech being among the
most desirable kinds of timber, and
during one hard winter, probably
in the fifties, whole groves of sugar
trees were cut down for browsing
purposes, giving employment to
two or more axmen from morning
till night.
Stock is said to have Jared we'll
and becomes fond of the twigs, so
much so in fact that an extra hand
was sometimes needed to prevent
the cattle from running under the
falling trees and being killed.
1t is to be hoped that resort to
this expedient will not be general
at all, but as last resort it would
hardly be overlooked or ignored.

CHAUFFEUR BEATEN
AND ROBBED BY MAN
AND WOMAN, FARES

CHICAGO, Sept. 27.-Fred Sprainer,
part owner of a Chicago garage, was
beaten unconscious and robbed by a fash
ionably dressed man and woman, whom
he was driving to Hammond, Ind, early
this morning.
AS the machine neared East Hammond.
the woman reached forward, flung her
arms around Sprainer's neck and buried
her fingers in his throat. The man beat
the driver over the head with a black
Jack. After rifling his pockets, they
threw Sprainer into a ditch.
The man and woman vainly tried to
run the automobile. Then they hired a
rig and drove to South Chicago, where
all trace of them was lost.
