Western Union to replace wires with radio telegraph system
Western Union plans to switch from wire to radio telegrams across major routes within years.

The program, costing less over seven years than maintaining poles, starts with the New York Washington Pittsburgh triangle and will expand to Columbus Cincinnati Chicago Toledo and Cleveland later in 1946.

Dwarf Cows At Trier Exhibit At Trier Sale
A pair of Black Angus eight month old heifers, dwarf in size, 23 to 25 inches tall and 460 pounds together, were bought by Bude from Trier after being shown in Southern Town. Auctioneer Loren Wymore of Rose Hill eased Buddy out, and the pair were shipped to Rose Hill Friday for potential countrywide exhibition. The heifers have mothers who are sisters and are noted as fat as butterballs despite their dwarfed stature. Soda should seldom be used in cooking due to vitamin destruction.
