High Prices for Diaries.
burlington Free Press.S


The sale of dairy COWS has various
sides. Some people claim that cattle
suspected of consumption, or technical
~, of bovine tuberculosis, are sold to
the state for a goodly sum. 1t must be
admitted that the state has paid ire
mendous aggregate for cattle since the
commonwealth began its ct. b. cru
SADIE. Some of these cases are deserv-
ing. In others owners in different times
in the past have unquestionably sold
to the state for goodly sum cattle
that in a short time would have died
without assistance. One of the requis.
ties of the state department dealing
with this problem is twatch dog OF
the treasury" to see that the state is
not worked. -
l. The high prices for cattle of which
we desire to speak in particular at this
time, however, are paid for high bret
cattle sold for dairy purposes and not
for learners. You have seen in oul
news columns how Brattleboro, tn,
