Barlow’s Is g The Best (Bemidji made) DEER-COW Vista Kept Remarkable 1 Animal for Three Years. TABLISHED TRUTH OF STORY. Had Horns and Tail Like Cow But Other Charactertistics Were Like Deer. The story recently published | in several newspapers through- out northern Minnesota to the effect that an animal which ap- parently was a cross between a cow and a deer had been seen by a woods crew is substantiated by J. W. Speelman of Buena Vista. who is in the city today, and who states that he ralsed such an animal. Tt was in the summer of '97,” said Mr. Speelman. “The cow which I owned at Buena Vista was allowed to run loose in the woods and the next spring she gave birth toa calf which re sembled both a deer and a cow. When the calf was about two weeks old it could jump higher than any full grown cow, and at.the age of a year no fence in this part of the country could confine it. “The animal had a short, busy tail and short horns.

These char- acteristics are like a cow, but the other characteristics were de- cidedly deer-like, “Ithad a slender body and small legs and the general coun- tour of the head, neck and body left no doubt but that the animal was a cross between a cow and a deer. “I was puzzled at the curious animal, and, to satisfy myself as to what it really was, called a Be- midji physician who happened to be at Buena Vista to the barn and showed him the animal. After a thorough examination he stated that there was not the least doubt that it was part deer and part cow. “The animal lived for three years, when it broke its leg ac- cidentally and I was forced to kill it.”’ JOE MARTELL TO CASS LAKE Man With Injured Arm Must Seek Medical Aid in Cass County.

Rev. Johnson goes to Minnea- polis at this time to secure a large number of other tourists, who will return with him and spend the month of September of this year at the cottages on the island, a number of which have already been completed. It is planned to erect at least 50 cottages on the island, but of course only a portion of these can be completed for occupation during the present outing season. The remainder will be rushed as | fast as possible, however, and it is expected that they will all be ready for occupation for next year.
