nongah, sitting. The suit is brought
to recover $500 for certain work which
Frum has done in the way Of complet-
ing some of the sidewalks in Rivesyillo.
The mix.up in the building OF the
sidewalks dates back about two and
half years ago when Contractor Pat
terson took the contract and man
named Barker went on his bond 10 com
plete the work. Patterson claims that
the city was to furnish the materials.
bat it is alleged that in the contract Il
was provided they were to be charged
against Patterson. The result waa
that Patterson quit the work.
At this juncture it Is claimed BY
Frum that he was engaged by the town
council to lay the side walk. After
doing some work Frum went after the
town to secure money TO pay his men
and the town took the position that
Frum was doing the work for either
Patterson or Barker.
After hearing the evidence Justice
Price reserved his decision until Mon,
day. Attorney l.. C. Musgrave repre-
sents Frum and R. Lee Fleming the

HORSES RAISED ON AGRICULTURAL
COLLEGE FARM AT GOOD PROFIT

Six years ago the animal husbandry
division of the State College of Agri-
culture, at Athens, purchased a pair of
high grade Percheron mares for $47O.
These animals have done regular team
work for six consecutive seasons. and
considering their extra value for heavy
hauling. 1t is believed they have been
worth as much in actual farm work as
any pair of mules owned by the college
farm
The idea in securing this team was to
demonstrate that farm work stock could
be produced at home, and the big leak
of 81 100000 a month for the purchase
of northern raised horses and mules
was useless waste. In the six years
these animals have raised eight foals
Seven Of them were sold, in the main
AS colts. for the sum total of SLIGO. and
one filly retained on the farm. 1t is
thus demonstrated that the by-product
of a pair of brood mares is very val
liable asset 10 the owner. The mares
are still sound and are good workers,
and they are safely in foal again.
1t will be noticed this is striking
contrast to the showing made by the
average pair of mules, purchased for
the same amount of money, when it is
