BEVERLY HILLS.—Well all 1 know
la just what I read in the Congressional
Record. They have had some awful
._funny articles in
there lately. As our
Ik - WtHr Government Deterl-
4 atea, our humor ln-
cresea. They been
argueing over the
taxes, and that give
em a chance to get
some original views
on where they was
going to get this
■B 11 two billion bucks
that they were over-
drawn. They have
just appropriated
and appropriated til] they was so far
in the red, that it dont look they will
hardly get out by Xmas.
They got to get the whole thing all
straightened out pretty quick, for the
conventions are here right now. They
have to be there and tell the Dellgatea
what they have done for the country.
Well I will be seeing a lot of you all at
the shows (both of em). I dont want to
miss anything.
Well I had a fine time here a few
days ago. I went out with our Govenor,
Jimmy Rolph, and we, “We” accepted
in behalf of the State of California, one
of the most magnlflcient ranches you
ever saw. It comprises about seven
hundred acres. Course that dont sound
bo big, bnt thats land that is all piped
and watered, and irrigated, and im-
proved. It is the largest Arabian horse
ranch In America. It ha8 87 bead of
pure breed Arabian horses, the most
wonderful up to date stables and equip-
ment you ever saw. Its a marvelous
place, about 40 miles out of Los An-
gales, near Pomona. It was given to
the State University Department of
Animal Husbandry, and will be main-
tained by them. It was the gift of Mr
W. K. Kellogg of Battle Creek. He has
been coming out here for the winters
for several years and built up this
beautiful place. We had a big cere-
mony.
Mr and Mrs Kellogg turned over the
deeds to the Govenor. They are a
mighty flno plain, wholesome folks, the
Kelloggs. Now here is the catch In It
that makes the gift so iparvelous. He
also give 1600,000 as a fund, that the
income from It would be used to keep
this place up. Thats where I got fooled.
I went out there to the ceremony just
thinking that It was an event where a
man was giving away a ranch. Well I
have one In California, and one in Ok-
lahoma, both mighty little ones, but
still big enough to be noticed by the
tax men. Well neither one of ein have
ever made their taxes, so if either state
wants another Animal Husbandry
joint, why I will be more than glad to
turn each state over some of the best
tax infested land in both states, and I
will give em some horses with em too.
They may not be Arabians, and again
they may be, for you cant look at em
and tell what kind they are.
They told us out there at this cere-
mony that the Arabian horse has one
less vertabra in his back, and one less
In bis tall, and the bone from his knee
down is shorter. Well this Arabian Is
short of vertabra. and that Is giving
it a nice name. I dont know about our
shin bone being shorter. If it is its be-
cause we have worn it out kicking at
everything so much. We have wore out
about an inch of it just kicking poor
Hoover alone. Maby he did need s Few.
bnt perhaps not as many as we aimed
at him. Now I think we ought to com-
mence wearing out. not the shin bone
but the keel bone, by kicking ourselves
a few times each day. Our kicks have
always been aimed at the somebody
else for our own troubles. And a few
good ones directed at the proper source
would find us getting em right where
they are deserved.
So these horses are really American
and not Arabian. They also have an-
other American
characteristic, they
are lcag winded.
There is a Senator
among every colt
born.
An Arabians nos-
trils are always dis-
tended. He seems
to smell everything
pretty good. Well
we dont. There is
things about our
affairs that you
jometlmes think we
have no sense of smell at all, or we
would certainly smell some of the
things that are being put over on us
every day. if we had had even an ordi-
nary "Nostril” we should have detected
an odor when our International Bank-
srs were giving everything in the world
to Europe. We coublent even detect
the limburger on the bonds they sold
us. So we have all the characteristis
Jt the Arab horse but the distended
nostrils and its beauty. The mare of
the human race has retained Us beauty,
but the male has been a throw back.
He has retained none of the springy
movement and the'grace and beauty of
form and skin. Our only salavatlon is
to raise just females.

Common and Statutory Law
Statutory law is a law which de-
pends upon a statute for its authority.

binding force from Immemorial usage
and universal acceptance.

Feminine Grief
Having a face that It’s a waste of
time to doll up Is one kind of feminine
grief, and another kind Is having a
husband so meek there is no kick In
bossing him.—Cincinnati Enquirer,
