Thus it will be seen that the
increase over IV12 is worthy of
note, ami that Murray as one of
the principal shipping points in
Cass county makes a splendid
showing-. Some of these days we
will endeavor to give the num
ber of cars of grain shipped out
of Murray during the vears

decrease from the year PJl-, but
we seriously doubt it.
