Those who believe it can dc so; those who do not believe it car also do so: Just seven years ago, the temporary editor of this paper was campaigning for office and stopped a1 Bob Lewis' house in Longtown. II being hot, he took off his vest, in which he had a fine watch, and, lying it on a fence in the back yard. A calf chewed up a pocket of the garment containing the watch. Last week Dr. Pollard was called to see a sick cow down there. It turned out to be the same calf and the time piece was found in such position between the lungs that the respirator! ?the closing in and the filling oi the lungs?kept the stem winder wound up and the watch had lost but one hour in seven years. The watch was removed by Dr. Pollard and the cow is doing well. .^ngraved Cards and Invitaion*The-'Press and Banner Co. y VALUE OF ALL CROPS 1 AND LIVE STOCK IN THIS STATE SHOWN 1 B. B.
