'DUKE OF STEADFAST"

DUKE OF STEADFAST"

Recently Mr.. w. T. Montgomery,
of San Antonio, Texas, who is a large
contractor now engaged here in re-
building some of the pixies in the
county, bought nine head OF Polled
Durham cattle to send to his Texas
ranch to start herd Of this breed OF
cattle. Three head of this herd were
supplied by r. H. McGaughey. This
consignment consisted of the fine
young bull "Duke of Steadfast," to
head the herd, that was exhibited at
both the Pennyroyal and Kentucky
State Fairs, and two prize young
heifers. Mr.. F. B. Lacy, OF the
GAINESVILLE pike section, fornished
three fine young heifers.
Last Monday Messrs. Montgomery
and McGaughey visited the herd OF
w. r. Norman G Son, Glendean,
Breckenridge county, KY, and there
Mr.. Montgomery secured three more
heifers to increase his new herd. Allof
them have been assembled at Hopkins
vile at Mr.. Montgomery's Temporal
stock barn on 9th street and railroad,
where they will be given the tuber-
culintest. Ifthis is passed satisfactorily
they viii be shipped to the Texas Ag-
ricutural College and inoculated Tor
tick fever, which is very fatal to
Northern cattle taken into that section
without being first treated against
these pests. II is hoped that the cat
tie will make good in the far South
and boost Christian as a center Tor
pure bred livestock. The price paid
for these young cattle was not made
known but was said to be very re-
munerative and will be a great in
centive for increased breeding OF
pure-bred stock in this county.

With curious phases frsught--

Your daily coming brought;
'miles TO waiting lovers face,
Tears to a mothers eye,
Or Joy or pain TO every place
Goodbye, old stamp, goodbye.
Ab, in your last expiring breath
Tha tale of years is heard
The sound Of voices hushed in death.
A mothers dying word.
! maiden's answer, soft and sweet,
A wife's regretful sigh,
he patter of baby's feet
Goodbye, old stamp, goodbye.
What wonder, then, that at this time
When you and must part,
should aspire to speak in rhyme
The promptings of my heart. Il
o, bide with all those mem fries dear
That live when others die
ou've nobly served your purpose
here
Goodbye, old stamp, goodbye.

American governments guidance in
determining an export control policy
Much of this, the British statistics

From Scandinavia and Holland, the
British information sets forth, enough

100000 soldiers, virtually the entire
army of electives in the empire. Ger
man imports from these countries, il
is declared, reduced to calories will
equal the total ration of 100000
troops, the size of the German army
in the west.
German purchases Of foodstuffs
abroad are made through the govern

sion to buy from the neutrals.
