ler onsfder: his success in ob
taining M r. Price's services for
this meeting Is very fortunate for
the dairymen.
Heeause of the enforcement of
the Medford standard government

much demand from dairymen for
information on milk cooling and

to the police station. Kingsley
pulled his gun, and a scuffle en
sued. Kingsley fired the first bul

The second shot struck him in the
abdomen, and the third, as he lay
face downward on the pavement.
Kingsley fled and near Shady
