We have a dog named bill" I

Sometimes We say, Poor BILL" and he
crys very pitifully.
Bill always seems to be in the way.
I could not say how many times he gets
stepped on in a day. When he gets
stepped on. he barks and comes to the
person who stepped on him. This means
he wants to be petted.
He likes my brother, Harold, very
much. He follows him every place he
can go. 1 think he likes my brother, be-
cause he pets him very much.
One time. he ran back to where he

commissioner told the committee he
could see no reason for killing his de-
partment in that manner: that as far
as he knew, there was no general public
demand for the adjustment Of the de-
partment of agriculture. He pointed
out the work that the department was
now engaged in. cited the law which
made it the duty of the commissioner
of agriculture TO make Investigations
of diseases TO fruit trees maintain a
nursery inspection system and also a
bureau Of entomology. Il cannot COM
ply with this law unless there is an ap-
preparation for that purpose" said Mr..
Davis.
1t developed during the hearing that
the committee had allowed large ap-
preparations for carrying on practically
the same class Of work at the Univer-
sity OF Texas, and the Agricultural and
Mechanical college, and there was no
need of duplication

Although nothing definite has been

ing made TO compromise the matter in

After all, there may be no appropria-
ton made by the legislature for the
