From the March 3, 1961, edition of The Leonard Graphic:

Burglars Hit Grill

Deputy Sheriff Troy McNear said burglars used the usual method when they hit Grill 69 last Thursday night. They broke the glass in the front door to gain entry. We would say Tom and Janie Peirson aren't very surprised when burglars enter their cafe because it has happened so many times during the past several years.

Butch Fowler Sells FFA Angus Steer To Farley & Hill Grocery and Market

Butch Fowler bought his FFA project, an Angus calf, October 8, 1960 for $70 from Floyd Flanagan when he weighed 350 pounds.

For 120 days Butch fed the calf a total of 900 pounds of F.F.A. feed which was composed of combined maize, cotton seed meal, syrup and salt. The calf gained a pound and one-half daily during this period, making a total gain of 186 pounds.

Butch sold the steer to L. C. Hill Monday, February 20, 1961. It weighed 536 pounds and brought 26c per pound.
