sionee Thousands Of Miles to
Twenty Addresses,

for thousands OF miles during IL
years, q sack of gold dust mailed IN
1899 was delivered to CHRISTOPHER La

The gold had been trailing Lalone
for years, but, wherever 1t was sent
Lalone was always Just ahead OF II.
The gold dust started at Dawson
City, Alaska. being sent by Frank
Wires, Mr.. Lalone's son-in.law. II was
part Of the first treasure taken from a
mine which young Wires discovered
while prospecting. and which later
Melted him a fortune.
The first address attached to the
sack was Schenectady, where Lalope
was living. Before it arrived, how.
ever, Lalone had left that city. and
after few months the gold was sent
back to Dawson City. Wires. the
sender, was far from civilization. and
his whereabouts wac unknown. I'm

was sent, but again too late. Since
then it has Travelled to Seattle. to

M0LDY SELAGE is HARMFUL
Complaints Made That Farmers Lose
Horses and Enthusiastically
Avoid All Spoiled stuff.

Every winter farmers complain of
losing horses or mules by feeding
spoiled silage. Damaged or moldy
silage is not first-class feed for any
animal. Even cattle should be fed
carefully, but the greatest care should
be exercised with horses and colts
See that no moldy stuff gets into their
feed boxes and that mono is left
there from one feed to another to
spoil a
Good silage does not hurt horses,
but remember the mold that some
times occurs in spots may kill them
at any time.
