A Pow ell Butte farmer recently
lost a valuable dairy cow and he de
termined to make an examination o f
the cause o f death. Nearly a quart
o f fine sand was found between the
second and third stomachs. The cow
had been drinking from shallow ir
rigation ditches and It is thought the
light sand was so abundant in the
water as to accumulate and cause
death.
This theory seems to solve
the mystery o f the death o f several
cows that have died front no appar
ent reason.
" W i l l you marry m e ? ”
"N o. a thousand times no.”
" W e l l will yon if 1 ask you a thou
sand and one tim es?”
