LOSE VALUABLE HORSES.


J. P. Graft is having more than his
share of hard luck with his horses this
summer. A week ago valuable draft
horse suffered from sunstroke and last
Friday night when Herman Adam was
driving one of the Graft horses home
along the road near the brickyards the
animal gave a lunge forward and fell
dead in his tracks. 1t probably suffered
a stroke of apoplexy. 1t had not been
worked to amount to anything that day
and as the incident occurred at about
1890 p. m. the heat was not responsible.
While the animal was over twenty years
old it was still a very good worker and
was quite valuable.

his salary was raised to $40 a week

made $1,000 year he gave up 500
of it, and so on, through the years
when he made ten millions in ons
