The Piedmont section Of Virginia,
West Virginia, Western North Caro-
lima, Tennessee, and Northern Ala
bama is fine grazing country, and
thousands of good beef cattle are
found there. The Shorthorn is more
popular than any other breed in this
region, and they do exceedingly we'll
The grazing plants are chiefly blue
grass, whitet clover, red clover, red
top, and orchard grass. The cattle
fatten very rapidly during the graz
ing season and raise excellent calves
Most of this region is free Of ticks
and the losses from death are rela-
lively small.
The black prairie section of A1aba-
ma, Mississippi and Texas, and the
Delta lands of Mississippi and Louis
lana, are extremely favorable sections
for raising and finishing beef cattle
Experiments conducted by the Bureau
of Animal Industry and the Alabama
experiment STATEN show that cattle
when kept free OF the cattle tick, can
be raised at cost of 8 to cents
pound. This cost includes the keep
ing of the cows for one year, charges
for pasture and all feeds consumed
at market prices, depreciation In the
value OF the herd, and 6 per cent in

principal native grasses which are
indigenous to these soils are bermu-

when, he heard footsteps in the hall.
Presently someone tried to open the
door, and the clerk, thinking that ne
had locked it, paid no attention to
the approach of the visitor or visitors.
He was about to leave his chair when
the lights in the room went out and
moment later he was slugged on the
head and rendered senseless. After
few minutes he came to and attempt
ed to. rise but was pounded and then
choked.
The. robbers proceeded to the vault,
where they opened the cash drawer ami
took the contents with the exception
Of the checks, and departed. In the
meantime the city clerk regained con-
sciousness for a minute and manageu
to reach the telephone and called for
aid and then sank to the floor
Officer Varney heard the police
gong ring and answered it, whereupon

wanted at the city hall, where he
found Roderick lying near one Of the
windows. Another officer was notified
to call doctor and Roderick was
taken to his home for care.

mediately set out in search of the per-
petrators Of the deed, and secured the
town, and several suspects were ar
rested, but were released later.

police force has been notified to be ON
the lookout for two men, Of whom the
description was given, as it is thought
that they escaped on train end went
to Minneapolis.
Mr.. Roderick stated that he did not
suspect any certain person Of the deed,
several strange people having been at
the city hall. during the day. He told
of one strenger, a deaf and dumb man,
who nad been there during the day,
and who had asked for permission to
sell small articles on the streets. The
man was about S feet, 9 inches tall,
and wore gray suit. The authorities
