don't know what to do when they
discover this, they don't know Dr.
Adair. The doctor says she has had
two fine New Century gates swung on

who put them up, declares he is of
the mind to bring his plant up to
Warrenton, and if he does, will add
to it the necessary machinery for the
making of barbed wire fencing; and
the only dubious element of the
pleasant news may arise if he changes
his mind, but everyone hopes he will
not. Dr. Adair has sold the timber
off her 63-acre tract on the home farm,
and she listens delightfully, day by
day, to the cheerful sound of the ring

log-chains thereabout.

treated, should they decide to enter
their bloats, and as to the prizes, they
are handsome and well worth, going

blanks can be secured at your office."
