YORK CAN BOAST OF PECULIAR CAT York, July 12.?At last somethinf new under the sun. The ancient feuc between the cat and the rat, whic} dated back almost to the dawn oi time, is over and the hatchet is buried deep. At least such is the happy consummation?from the rai'f viewpoint?presaged by the amicable even affectionate, relations betweer a feline and a rodent here. The broac i minded cat, rising above the prejudice of her kind, has actually adopted ? | diminutive and youthful rat and is according1 it the same watchful care bestowed on her natural progeny. The strange tale., running counter tc all the traditions and precepts of the feline and rodent tribes, was told bj a York man of unquestioned veracitj k - Bt Radiator I Repairing ffe Am toJ-^/eese I YOU ;i, n " ; , . ?|We Repaid All ' t Makes of' , ? . \ i s.3p ti Radiators ' r.X ?

In most cases it has been weakened by peach tree borer In the j crown, or scale on the bark, or both. , and when a tree is thus weakened it | becomes an ideal breeding ground for j the shot hole borer.
