,nsted Of cedar trees to look pirty
aud perfect the birds. He said
the pore dunn apple raisen men

wanted to make money to put in
the bank, that seemed to peve
him because the cedar tree men
could not make any money raisin
cedar trees to- put in the bank
two. | think myself he had the
right of it. because if the pore
apple tree men in this county
can sell nearly a million dollars
year to put in the bank and
the cedar tree men cant even put
two hundred dollars wear in
the bank >ometIlin surely is
wrong with the government.
