The practice of herding COWS or
leaving them run at large on the
public streets of this town is a VIC
lation of the town ordinance and
the owner Of the COW is liable to a
fine OF imprisonment if he refuses
to pay such a fine. 1t would seem
to a person of average intelligence
that a reminder of the above sort
is silly at least, but we don't think
so. There ire certain people in
town who think COW. herding on
streets is a public virtue and emil
nently correct and respectable, in
spite of the ordinance or the COM
plants of neighbors who are bot
hered by their animals. The town
marshal has received instructions
to see that the ordinance relating
to cows, horses and other domes-
tic animals is observed by every
body. So gentle COW owner,
please keep your COW on your lot
and avoid trouble.
