Shipping Young Calves

Of considerable concern to the cat
tie raisers is a bill introduced in the
house undertaking to prohibit the
shipment of calves less than six
weeks old, under penalty of a fine
of not less than $40 or more than
$50 for each individual offense.
There is a provision in it to the
effect that calf under six weeks
may be shipped when accompanied
by the nearest kin-that is to say
its'mama. 1t was referred to the
committee on interstate commerce.

Chambers or Train Fever

Many horses brought into Canada
by American settlers have been shot
by government orders on suspicion

said by the owners that they were
affected only with train fever and
not with CHAMBERS. The owners
have appealed to Washington. The
Canadian government is also investi-
eating.

No treasures in her hold;
We skirted all the isles of time,
Yet we bring back no gold.
But one day in a golden sea
We heard a fairy strain
That battered down upon the
deck
Like drops of silver rain.
And one day by lonely coast
We found a lonely flower y
That had not looked upon mans
face
Until that happy hour.
And one white night we,anchored
off
Some fragrant Araby
And could not tell the odors from
The moonlight and the sea-
Now home at last with empty

We put our questing by
And find little patch of sun
Beneath smiling sky.
