effect almost of blow.

possibly a stallion, though that last

Agricultural experts say that the
local cattle. has become inbred to
an extent as to make it hopeless as
profit makers unless high grade
stock is introduced. The animals
will be money makers for the coun-
ty as a fee will be charged that will /,
while Comparatively small, yield a
