over the practice of a Rice County
farmer who is trying a new kind
of agricultural economy. He buys
horses in the spring, works them
until late in the fall, then kills them
and feeds the meat to his hogs. He
says it is cheaper than feeding them

WANT A PLANE,

Following the exploits of Lind
bergh and Chamberlin the public
has been giving quite q lot of at
tention to airplanes. A recent
speaker on commercial aviation
made the statement that there
were at least a dozen reliable
companies now building planes to
retail at from $3.50 to $4,000 or
about the price of a good car.
Someone slipped Clarence Yedica
one of the catalogues and CLAIR
ence has been hotfooting it around
town this week trying to scare up
couple of live prospects. He says
that he'd just as soon sell air
planes as cars, or a little sooner,
perhaps, for as yet there wont be
the old trade-in bugbear to take
all the joy out of a deal. Anybody
want to buy a nice little plane,
today?
