TEXAS RANCHER
PAYS SIS FOR
UNBORN CALVES

COTTONWOOD FALLS, Kan.
April ia Chase county STOCK
man, who has just returned from
Texas, where he has been buying
a herd of cattle, tells of one of
the most unusual cattle sales he
ever heard of and which was a
topic of gossip among Texas
ranchmen while he was there.
]. S. Dorsey, a cattleman of the
Canadian district of Texas, sold
1000 head of calves at S25 per
head, and the unusual part of 1t
Is that these calves are not yet
born.
The buyer is b. Dawson, who
owns a big cattle ranch near Shat
tuck, OKLA, and he has drawn up
a contract with Mr.. Dorsey in
which he agrees to pay him $25
per head, or $4,000, for the
drove of 1000 calves which Dor
sey expects to raise this summer
from his large herd Of cows.

1t seems as though the Paris
designer and the Paris fashion,
able woman are In league to bind
the fashionable figure in every
particular, where 1t Is necessary.
to be free to insure health and
grace.
The dress illustrated was seen
at the Longchamps races, and
was less than three-quarters of a
yard around the feet. 1t was
made of black velvet with an
over-tunic OF white silk ratine,
and a wide belt of the black.
A gown of this kind emphasizes
only the sex of it's wearer. 1t is
not graceful, practical or beautf-
full. 1t makes of woman a kind
of Queen Bee, whose only rea-
son for living Is to attract the
male and reproduce her kind.
1t is rather hard to understand
just why, at the time when wom-
en- are preaching freedom as new
er before, they are allowing their
arms and legs to be so bound
that walking or helping them
selves is practically impossible.
