Twelve car loads OF corn we're on
the track and being unloaded at Nc
Creole last Friday. The corn belong
ed to Grand Prairie stock feeders
and came from Illinois. II cost the
feeders about TIC a bushel and
will be used to fatten cattle, hogs
and mules. Il is estimated that the
twelve loads Of corn cost the county
between $500 and $4,000 And this
is only a small part of the cost Of in-
ported corn this season.-Fulton Ca
