velopment of live stock, and located
as a most desirable center of the
great and growing country, and as a
market place having national imp0r.
lance for all animal and agricultural
husbandry products, Is entitled to this
success. Public spirit and co-opera
ton and energy will yield to the city

of such indifference should be avoid

Leader In production, Columbia and
Maury county, should add to its
wealth by the approved course of

Of city and county. which needs only

business. All working together, all

What is Columbia and Maury eoun-
