NJ. G. Ramsey do not know just
when the Mexicans will cross the

ready to cross the boundry line into

thing that she can find that pleases
her appetite. Now ! could send this
COW an ultimatum setting forth where
she could Craze and where she may

grain field would be more effective.
In my vicinity only a small per cent
of the farms are fenced. Many grain
fields have been invaded by the stock
It seems to me that in the last few
years the losses from poor fences
would more than have paid for good
ones. Besides losing much grain and
pasture many animals are spoiled by
poor fences. so that they are not

THE ANCESTRY OF OUR SHAW

We have repeatedly declared that
the humiliations which have come
upon this country in our negotiations
with the belligerents of Europe are
the direct result OF the vacillating pol
Icy which the Wilson administration
pursued In Mexico during the seven
teen months OF its rule prior to the
outbreak of the European war. We
must now thank Senator Fall of New
Mexico for giving to us the direct and
unmistakable lineage of this child Of
shame.

the mock heroics OF Senator Lewis OF

pointed out how. in August. 1913. the
