The Cow

Little we realize the debt we
owe the COW. During the dark ages
of savagery and barbarism we find
her early ancestors natives of the
wild forests OF, the old world. As
the bright rays of civilization pene-
tratc the darkness of that early pc
riod, and man called upon the cow.
she came forth from the saclusiOn to
share in the efforts that gave us a
greater nation and more cnlighten
ed people
For two thousand years she has
shown her allegiance to man, shal
ing alike in his prosperity and ad-
versity. responding nobly to all
that was done for her, until through
her development she became an
idol of the people of her native
country.
In 1893 when Columbus made his
second voyage to America the cow
came with him, and from that time
she has been a most potent factor
in making this our own country the
greatest nation with the highest
type OF wOmanhoOd and manhood
history has ever known.
Her sons helped till the soil Of
our ancestors and slowly moved the
products of the farm to market.
They went with the man into the
dense forests Of the new world. and
made cultivation possible for the
coming generation.
