THE BATTALION
LARGE EXHIBIT OF LIVE
STOCK TO FORT WORTH
FERGUSON BROS. STOCK
COMPANY COMES TO PALACE
(Continued from Page 1)
stock show management has elimin
ated the Morgans from its list for pre
miums the College will be seriously
hampered in its horse exhibit as only
Percherons can be taken. Among this
hreed, however, the College will ex
hibit animals that won at Fort Worth
last year high in the list and a new
three year old mare recently added to
the A. & M. stables which placed high
in a large entry at the 1922 Interna
tional show.
Because of the practice of selling
its entire exhibit of hogs every year
immediately following the show, this
•exhibit is entirely new every year. In
"the lot, however, are a number with
Wood lines that have made winners in
the past.
Sheep are being exhibited this year
for the first time in several years and
as they are of College breeding it is
impossible to speculate on their win
ning ability in comparison with others.
For the first time A. & M. will have
bulls to sell at Fort Worth this year.
In past years numerous requests have
been made for College animals fol
lowing the show, but the College has
not been able to meet the demand.
This year two bulls, a junior and sen
ior calf, sired by the herd bull, Prince
Perfecto, wil be offered for sale after
they have been placed in their class
by the judges. Prince Perfecto sired
the white faced steers that made good
records at Fort Worth, Dallas, Waco,
Kansas City and Chicago last year.
“It’s hard,” said the sentimental
landlady at the dinner table, “to think
that this poor lamb should be des
troyed in its youth to satisfy our ap
petites.”
“Yes,” said the smart boarder,
struggling with his portion, ”it is
tough.”—Vancouver Province.
The Ferguson Brothers Stock Com
pany, conceded to be the best stock
company that has ever been in the
state, has been engaged to open at
the Palace Theatre next Thursday
night, and will present a selected
series of royalty plays. These plays
will be staged in the most complete
manner, the company carrying its own
special scenic equipment for each
production.
DRY CRACKS.
Another reason that we are glad
we don’t go to Baylor U. is that
every time Baylor make a score the
women scream so that it reminds of
of the Rice screech owls.

It would be an interesting mix up
to watch a fight between the dogs of
war and the hooch hounds.

The last proposal the M. E. Sen
ior got was from a woman who ran
a steam laundry and wanted a hus
band to make crowns for the laundrj
queens.

The Bryan Belle claims that the
Fish are too young, the Seniors to >
old, the Sophs too fresh, and the Jun
iors too slow. It seems that a two-
year man has a chance after all.
Teacher: John, if you went to
see your girl and sat down in a chair
across the room from her and moved
your chair each time reducing the
distance by half could you ever reach
her?
John: Theortically no, but in re
ality I could get close enough for all
practicall purposes.
The best stock company that ever
hit the state at the Palace for three
days beginning Thursday night.—Adv.
