’boys The fathers of the two boys
gave much assistance and information
to the officers in their efforts to lo-
cate the boys according to Deputy

Simpson learned from the fathers of
the boys that they would probably go
in the direction of Sweetwater he
telephoned the officers at that place

lea vaster coffee rajns j3 upon us a few terraces have
I have assisted in terracing this spring
but a small percent of these terraces
have gone out or been badly damaged
notwithstanding the fact that we have
had some of the heaviest rains for
years In most every case of serious

0f farm terracing

about this we want you to visit the

asked Mark Twam “I suppose you
are fond of books” “Well that de-l

book has a leather cover it has a mag-
nificient value as a razor strop A
brief concise work such as the French
