this Is true with the dairy COW and with
the sheep. Whoever has watched the
cattle eagerly searching a bundle Of
stover for a possible ear or nubbin
which the would be thrifty farmer has
overlooked must be impressed with
the folly OF husking the corn for steer
feeding. II In true that who. RAD IA

each steer is about the right number to
consume all the waste corn.
At FIRST each steer should have about
three pounds Of corn and the amount

extra husked or snapped corn. Three

For this reason every one should be IA

To ascertain these methods I obtained the

pickpockets in the business His name IS
known from the Cafe MonicO, Of London, to
the Poodle Dog restaurant, in San Francisco.
He processes to have turned square, and for
that reason he shall be nameless.
When the position OF confession was
submitted to him he said:
Sure, III go with you and pose, but you'll
have to agree not to have my face show in
the pictures I've been mugged many times
in this burg, and so 1 don't care about the
Gods They all know me, anyway. But l
don't want the public to know me, because I
have Just served three years, and I want now
to make an honest living"
