cided manner. The hall was pretty
bower, beautiful with lilacs in pro
fusion. When the guests had finished

to these the guests were seated for
dainty refreshments. Each table car

' South American Stock Show
The oldest paper in South America
the Standard of Buenos Ayres, asks
United States papers to urge farmers
and breeders in the United States to
send the finest and most represents -tive
strains of native-bred North Am
erican live stock to tho cattle show in
connection with the Argentina cen
tenary of national independence.
:Why shoudn't Ed Coles of Haines
or some of the leading Union County
stockmen interest themselves in the
appeal. J. W. Chandler and others
who deal in cattle would no doubt be
able to seize some of this South Am-,
erica n prize money.
"All the world," writes the editor of
tha, Standard, "has set its fine stock
before the Argentine breeder, that i
all except the United States brooder."
Our stock raisers do not know what
country like Argentina, with over 80,
000,000 head of cattle and 50,000,000
sheep, whosa owners are keen to im
prove them?"
