were attracted to Mrs. Horizons new

$40; calves, $3.50. She still owns
the animal she started with and has
four COWS. These four COWS are worth

Pierre.-Ernest Mattice, one of the

Judge Elliott to take down a line of
fence seven miles long which he has
maintained in the rough land along
the river near Leslie. Several of the

light Jail sentences for thus fencing
government land, but it appears that
the court will give the owner of the
fence an opportunity to first remove
it, and in case of failure would proba.
oily take more drastic action.
