Manager Partridge of the Land
company has arranged to turn
loose six pair of the finest pheas-

Model Dairy farm, having been
kept under surveilence in Mr..
Partridge's chicken house since

birds is 500 fine for the first Of

THE EDITORS AND POLITICS

because editors of all shades of political opinion belong

and discussing the problems of the profession.
Nevertheless, reporters of the city newspapers are
always looking for political facts and fances around

Yet there politics there, and in the city papers

be blamed, because the greatest single activity
