cows vs.. FEED.

OF course we need some cows
To give us plenty OF milk,
But first of all we need the feed.
At least that's what I think.
OF course, we need some COWS
To give us yellow cream
But first of all We need the hay
Piled right up to the beam,
OF course we ned some COWS
To furnish us a check,
But first of all a ton of feed
And not Il measly peck.
When spring arrives again,
Stake out u field for corn.
Plow it deep and drag it we'll,
And never blow your hcrn.
Don't plant your corn the last of June
And expect to have a crop
For when the ground is dry as bone
Your seed viii never pop"
But plant your corn the first of May
A forty. more or less.
And test the seed before YOU plant,
And never plant ny guess.
The blowing must go on.
The lectures never stop.
And when your corn is six foot tall.
BY heck, you have IL crop.
Then hitch Old Dobbin to the cart
And take Il day for fun;
OF course you have to dodge the cars
That re speeding UP run.
Some will pass and never foot,
But later they get stuck.
Unless old Dobbin's very kind
/ That bunch is cut of luck.
| Take along old Dobbins feed,
| Your sandwiches and a bun,
| And when in town call at your bank
| And make it on "run.''
The money you will get
To buy the cows you need
! And not because you're Mr.. Brown.
Because. you have the feed.

delight that his seven months old

Aid in Jersey Case.
GAMBLER IS NOW DEAD
Defense Begins To-day in Trial
for Theft of Prohibition
Office kilograms.

Frank G. Seib, Federal intelligence
agent, testifying yesterday at the trial
of Edward Donegan and Miss Regina
Sassone. who are charged with con-
spiracy in the theft of valuable Gov
ernment papers from prohibition head
quarters in this city and violating the
Volstead act, told again of alleged
bribes offered by Donegan and Sig
mund (Beansy) Rosenfeld, the gam
bier who recently died, to "fix" the
case.
At the time of the arrest of Donegan,
Miss Sassone, Mrs. Mary e. Parkins
and Rosenfeld in the Hotel McAlpin
on December 20, 1920. the witness de-
clared that Rosenfeld said he was
)under indictment in New Jersey and
that Gov. Edwards was going to aid
him in the case. To arrest him at that
time, Rosenfeld is alleged to have said
might harm him in the eyes of the
Governor. Rosenfeld served term in
Jail In New Jersey and was released
when broken in health.
In his own behalf, according to William
j. Fallon chief counsel for the defense.
lie will endeavor to refute Government
witnesses who have testified to finding
stolen documents on his person and the
offering of $31,500 cash bribe, of which
$6.500 was accepted as a "decoy" and
placed In the records.
Seib identified a signed sworn state
nent by Miss Sassone in which the lat
ter admitted she took from the files in
the office of Charles X. OConnor, for
mer Federal Prohibition Director. tele-
grams which she turned over to Donegan
in the McAlpin. The latter paid to her
500 telegram, or total of about
$4,000, according to the affidavit.
