The Mi$$inu Link.

The race has missed a missing link"
At least so Darwin seemed to think:
This Link that somehow made escape
Would link the human with the ape.
Let Darwin's ilk. In ones and twos,
BE linked with apes then, if they
choose.
But we who have n little pride
Would call that QUITE undignified.
And anyway, We hardly think
However missing is the Link,
Cor strayed or lost or something such)
That WE are missing very much!

Variety OF Broom Corn

best variety for this valley for the
following reasons
Dwarf will make crop with less

very little for fodder for stock and
