Judge Sulhvan is of the opinion that cattle die of cornstalk - stalk disease only when they feed on stall8 where the corn was Ih ed and bases his opimon upon actual experience. He turned a bunch of cattle into a field where be ground was plowed and planted and none died. From this field into one listt d and they begun to die , them turned into another nol listed and he lost none. 'rhey were taken from that to another listed field and again they commenced turning- their toes to the sky. Since then he has kept the stock 011t of the listed corn stocks and there has been 110 more obituaries , hence no card 01 thanks which are very inappropriate for either beast or man , the custom being a decidly back number in this day and age of the world.

The York Hepublican in its issue of April 10 , in commenting . upon the fine program b ing prepared - ! pared for the coming Chautauqua tn York has the following to say. "Probably the greatest feature this year will be the lecture by Captain Richmond P. Hobson late of the United States Navy , but now Congressman from Alabama. Captain Hobson has won for himself a place high up , very high in the hearts of the American people. We are glad to state that Capt. Hobson has been secured for an ddress during the co'ming Broken Bow Chautauqua. He is I one of the greatest orators on ! the American platfornl.
