CAPTURED BUUK PAWN,
m—
Little Deer, Uhased by Dogs, Sought Refage
on Grange Park. —D, W, Bradford Has
It in Ubarge. /
Hoores of people visited the barn of
D. W. Bradford, in Centre Hall, on
Tuesday and Wednesday, to get a
glimpse of a live deer, Bure they had
seen lots of them, but only after a
hunter's bullet had laid them out.
The beauty, innocence and native
“spunk” can only be appreciated in a
live deer, The deer in question wae
captured by Mr. Bradford on Grange
Park early Tuesday morning, It had
been run by dogs and sought the en-
closed grounds as a place of refuge.
Mr. Bradford chanced to discover
the animal—a buck fawp, old from
spring, and not yet of the age to be
within the law for killing im deer
sesgon—as he was on bls way to the
fields lying west of the plenic grounde.
The little beauty was lying on the
ground at the upper end of the park,
Mr, Bradford first thought it was a
goat, but closer investigation proved it
tobes fawn. It had evidently been
lying on the ground for some time,
for a pool of blood was about the deer,
which came from wcundson the pose
and mouth, caused, no doubt by etrik-
ing on the fence, - It is presumed the
dogs were chasing the mother deer
and the little fawn ran in another
direction,
Mr. Bradford ¢ttempted to pick up
the deer, which weighs about seventy-
five pounds, but sithough very weak,
it ran towards the fence and was 800d
fast in the woven wire, He released
it and soon found that to attempt to
take the deer home was more than he
bimeelt could do. He then went for
aid and with the aesistance of W. F.
Keller and D. Geies Wagner, the deer
was carrled to Mr, Bradford's barn,
but only after a chaee over the en-
closed park snd after the animaal had
again become tied up In the wire
fence,
Upon making irquiry of = State
constabulary Mr. Bradford was ad-
vised to keep the fawn until it gath-
ered sufficient strength and then to re
lease it in the mountaloe,
Those who venlured near the deer
in the stable to give it a ‘kind touch
were given a eample of the force it
carries in its front legs and its short
horns, It charged several who came
too close and is surly full of “pep’’ for
a little wounded animal, As it nestles
in its warm bed smidst the hay, it
presents a picture sq pure and ionc-
cent that we feel constrained to esy
that the species should be free from the
buntsman’s rifla and be permitted to
roam in the mountain fastnesses un-
molested,

Litter Fiom Word Motor Company,
i The following letter was received
from the Ford Motor Co., and explains
thoroughly the eitustion on Ford cars
this year :
To All Agents :
If you are one of the numorous
agents who hes on file a larga number
of unfilled orders for Ford care, disre-
gard this letter. If ycu are one of our
few agents who has only a few orders
on hand, kindly regard this as a notifi-
cation that from now on we will not
ship you cars unless you have regular
bona fide orders on band #0 that yoo
can immediately deliver cars to own-
ors,
BE You will remember on Dee, 10.b,
1916, we notified all our agents that
during the winter that was then ou ue,
we would positively deliver no cars to
agents unless they bad them sold in
advance, Some agenis thought they
could not sell during the winter and
some prospective purchasers thought
we were bluffing, but there are thour-
ands and thousands of people/in these
United Btates who now know that If
they had taken advice of our agents
and sccepted delivery of a car at any
time it could be delivered, even If the
snow was deep, that they would have
had a car now, instead of being with-
out anything at all or riding around in
something whose first cost was con-
siderably more than the first cost and
upkeep of a Ford for several years,
Our fiscal year ended July 81st, 1917,
and at that time the Ford Motor Com~
paoy closed its books with 850,000 up-
filled orders. The Company to-day is
now building 8300 cars a day, and
some of our agents are delivering this
month, orders taken I st April and
Mey.
In looking over our list we find
sgents with anywhere from 50 to 178
upfilled orders. If you doubt this
statement, we will be more than glad
to show you the sctual figures the
pext time you areat this Branch. Our
total of unfilled orders this month ie
over 2500 at this branch only. Isn't
it fair, therefore, that we should hand
the care out to the agents who have lhe
orders Instead of those that feel they
can pell a cor. oad of cara i” we ship It
into their territory ?
Ae you kpow, we hisve changed cur
plan of distzitution somewhat this
year and esch agent fs gelilog a cer.
tain number of cars every month, so if
you bave orders you are bound to get
some cars esceh month snd should be
able lo estimate sbeut when yeu could
meke delivery to your customers,
Tbe price of the Bedar, Coupelet and
Town car hes jaet been raised, but the
Tourlog ear and Runabout price, ex-
cept for the sddition of the war tex
just declared, remaips the same, We
haven't any means of knowing when
wo may be forced to ralee the price on
all modele. Just as lsst year, it can-
not be considered that there is a short.
age of Ford ears, but eimply that there
is sn Increased demsnd and the msn
who puts off buying a Ford car until
spring, will, from present indications,
either have to buy scmethiog else or
go withoui allogether,
Last winter you will remember that
on posi'ive instructions from Detroit
we had lo ship 1000 of pur care South,
W bad hardly gotten started on these
shipments before all cur agents were
awake to the situation and eryiog for
the care, but it was too late, If we can
show by vur demand st this Branch
that the Ford cars are needed in the
Pittsburg territory, we have a very
good chance of getting more than our
allo!ment during the nex! few months,
It wil’, therefore, be up to all agents to
get very busy right away acd keep or-
ders on file ahead of the quantity we
are shipping from this Branch each
day, or our production will be deliver-
ed elsewhere, As it je, we shall sim-
ply divert from one poiot in our terri-
tory, where there are no orders, to
those points that have orders, so make
it plain to your trade that they had
better place that order tc-day and take
delivery of the car any time that we
can get it to you, instead of putting it
off and running the risk of their go-
ing without altogether or paying a
higher price later for some other make,
Keep this letter with you. Bhow it
to your prospective ocustomers—give
them time to read it. If they won't
believe you and us in spite of the well
known experience of last seasor, you
cars to pomeone with more foresight,
