OF Tonkawa, Okla, during the past

ample OF living on his nerve.
II was a wonderful experience

land got into difficulties with the
authorities. He had to spend the
Weekend In Jail instead of being on
his way back to Oklahoma with a
new automobile, three tractors. ak

Then came his trial. He was

inclined to be kindhearted, sentenced
him on only three charges-passing

the three charges, the sentences to
take effect one after another.
Harland came TO Springfield sew

was TO get in touch with one of the
local breeders of blooded stock. To
the local cattlemen, Harland told
a story OF how he recently inherited

how he was going 10 stock II with
the finest cattle in the country. II
took the locan man only short time
to sell several of his best bulls.
He then induced the Frisco 10

then bought three tractors and or

these To Oklahoma.
