formation kills 14- horse a fourteenyearold horse belong ing to harry and walter brillinger is dead the cause of death is rare among animals according to dr s t bodendistel veterinary surgeon who conducted an autopsy and dis covered a enterolith weighing 2 pounds c ounces in the animals bowels the rock like mass was brought to the tribune ollice in a sealed candy jar and is here for farmers

stream as he saw his prey swiftly darting into deeper water and per haps to hide behind a rock the dive was well aimed and the fight in creased in its intensity the fish darted but the keen eye of the fish erman enabled him to grab it by the tail this hold slipped and a se cond attempt nabbed the fish by the gills to throw it high and dry on the bank it measured 14 inches long 23 ykaks ago from

other line of business the man at the retail end renders as technically expert and helpful service to his customers at so low a cost as does the local implement dealer this while it has always been so
