That Is the Complaint Made
Against Valencia Man.
Undersheriff Goes To Arrest
Z. w. Browning. Today.
HE CUT UP DEAD ANIMAL
Then Carried Pieces Into Gel
lar of His House.
Colt Tied With Rope Too Weak
To Stand Up.

Wealthy, his granaries filled to over
flowing, E. w. Browning, farmer liv-
ing five and one-half miles south of
Valencia. has permitted his cattle to
starve to death and lie rotting in the
barn yard, according to information
received at the office OF Sheriff Hugh
Larimer. Bob Miller, undersheriff, left
fate this afternoon for Valencia to
place Browning under arrest on
cruelty to animal warrant issued
earlier In the day.
Before leaving Miller declared he
had information that Browning had
permitted n colt, tied with rope. to
drop over from starvation, falling in
lot of shrubbery which resulted in
gouging out the weakened animals
eyes. Another story in the hands of
the sheriff and Kate and Kilmaurs
King. humane officers, is to the effect
that Browning permitted a calf to die
and lie in the yard. Complaint was
made. so Miller said today. and Brown
ing promised to make away with the
dead animal.
Carried 1t Into Cellar.
"He did" said Miller. He cut it
up and carried it into his cellar. In
a few days we are told, the stencil
from the cellar was so strong as to
make a mess hall with soured stew in
it seem like a garden of roses in COM
parison."
Browning is accused of leaving cat
tie and horses in his barn for weeks
without exercise. leaving his place for
days and permitting them to go with
out food and water, according to
Miller Complaints in anonymous let
tiers and by telephone have poured into
the office of the sheriff and to Kate
and Kilmaurs King for weeks and
two weeks ago Browning was brought
into the county attorneys office,
where he promised to turn over new
leaf.
Old Complaints Recalled.
"'Thc complaints are Still coming in
and we're going the limit with him
now" said Miller.
Browning formerly lived in Brown
county, according to Kate King. and
while he was there similar complaints
were received in Topeka. At that time
the Kings took action thru the attor-
ncy generals office. Browning being
out of reach of county officers.
Tile has his granaries filled and
has money" said Kate King. There
is absolutely no excuse for the condi-
tion of affairs

CIRCUS WAS SUCCESS
Shorter Program "Wednesday Night
Attended by Large Crowd.


The closing performance of the
Rota club community circus at the
auditorium Wednesday night was
big success in every way. and the au-
dfence was possibly larger than on the
previous night. The two perform
ances will doubtless net a good sum
to the Rota club for carrying on its
work. which is philanthropic in ma
ture.
The show Wednesday night was
shorter than on Tuesday evening. One
of the good features that had been
omitted Tuesday was the Pompeiian
dance, done by q group of high school
girls, with flower baskets of flowers
which they scattered as they danced.
Miss Irma Jane Lewis and Mr.. Glen
wood Jones made a big hit again in
their 1880 duet, as well as the young
women who followed with an old
fashioned dance.

children as the dollies and in the Tom

Experts in Dairying
Are in Demand

During the past few years, there
has been an unusual call for young
men and women trained along dairy
lines. The higher prices for dairy
products as well as the increasing
knowledge OF the value OF dairy prod
uctS as human food seems to have
stimulated the greater use OF milk
for direct consumption, for butter
and cheese manufacture and espec-
ally in the ice cream manufacture
far beyond anything in the past de-
velopment of dairying.
With this development has come
the demand for men we'll educated in
all the phases of handling milk and
milk products. The Dairy Depart
nent OF the College OF Agriculture,
West Virginia University, has been
unable 10 meet this demand. These
positions pay good salaries as well
as offering excellent opportunities for
DEVELOPMENT, Most Of the calls have
been for butter and cheese makers,
Ice cream makers, supervisors OF COW
testing associations, and dairy farm
managers.
Students who expect to enter COL
lege this fall and who may be inter-
ested in these opportunities may Sc
cure further information by address,
