There is a project in a few of the larger towna to raise a capital of $1,000,1100 in one dollar shares, to erect a rolling mill, to be run on the co-operative plan.

A number ul' other deer were seeu. and Mr. Leidy came near getting another one. He was standing at a crossing. He felt cold, and concluded to build a small tire to make himself more comfortable. He leaned his gun against a tree, and walked about twen ty yards away to gather pine to kindle afire itb. While thus engaged a doe came that way, in short shooting distance. He drop ped the pine, ran to hia g-u, look it up, leveled it, and fired, and wounded the deer, but not severely enough to bring it down. The animal ran near euougb to Bruce Alex ander for him to have put in a shot, but Bruce was busy looking into his victuals bag for a cap, and of course the deer got away.
