The fellow who runs a bluff often
finds himself called to make good
and that is what happened BILLY"
Bowman, last week. Melvin Burker,
Of Eogan, Iowa, was looking over the
cattle at the Bowman-Hopper ranch,
and asked what would buy ten heifers,
pointing them out Bowman, not
thinking the man in a serious mood,
said, offhand that he could have them
at $3.50 each. A few days later, Bill
ly" met his partner, Hopper, and told
him of the offer he had made, chuck
gu aqua 5uI6es 's4oc SO II IsAo Sun
would not have put so low a price on
the heifers if he had thought the man
in earnest. A few hours latter Jim"
had the laugh on Billy" as the Iowa
man had sent draft for So 500, in
payment for the ten heifers. Per-
haps you think it a pretty fair price
for the animals, but it seems an easy
matter to sell them at even better
figures.-Ness City News.
