Brady's BLARNEY B; A Bnulj OIM J. P Hail to thee, lovers of pure but ter. My heartfelt thanks for the support you have given my recent column concerning the use of cheap, oily substitutes. Seme of you sided with my argu ment in favor of good old fashion ed butter and some of you sided with my wife for using those cheap, oily substitutes. Matter of fact, Harley Lyle said it was fortunate that he wasn't married to me for he would make me eat the stuff or else. I think it's fortu nat that I'm not married to him for other reasons, into which we will not delve at this time. Anyway, the refrigerator up at "Mortgage Manor" now has sev eral pounds of good old country butter, thanks to friends who took pity on me. My little boy and I are thoroughly enjoying it, too. The wife? Well, she's speaking to me once again, although her stubborn streak is asserting itself. She refuses to eat any of that good old country butter, which suits us just fine! ? jpb ? Called home about lunch time one day last week and the wife greeted me with, "Hello, Brady Cat Ranch". Things are oecomrng a little crowded up at "Mortgage Manor" these days. "Cat ranch?" I answered, think ing maybe she'd flipped her lid. And then she explained "there are kittens all over the yard . . . come home and help me." When I got home I found she hadn't exaggerated one bit. Our | boy's two mama cats had their | litters all over the place. I gath-| ered up Buff's young and put her i with them in a tool shed. Sam | ( named In honor of Sam Gibson i . . . at the time we figured she was a "he") had her brood in an old dog house. A nose count of the new ar- j rivals revealed that the cat popu- , latlon at our place had swelled to ! 13. Of course it came as no sur prise to us. Buff and Sam do this at regular Intervals. However, this was the first time they've arrived at motherhood at about the same time and it did confuse the issue for a while. Believe me when I say these two mother cats are opportunists. When they're in a motherly way they get preferential treatment: that is. condensed milk, regular cat food Instead of table scraps, and, if during thd winter, indoor sessions for warming. So, with these added services in mind they apparently have blanket invita tions out to every torn cat in East Franklin, not that torn cats need invitations. Anyone like to have a kitten? ? jpb? An Associated Press dispatch from Memphis. Tenn.. explains my elation. It says: BIRTH CONTROL FOR CATS URGED BY MEMPHIS CLUB MEMPHIS. Tenn.,? A piea fcr birth control in cats came today from the Memphis and Mid-South Cat Fanciers Club. "Unwanted" cabbies, the club said, are mistreated and some times cruelly slaughtered. The solution: increased spaying of fe male and "neuterizing" of male cats so that the birth of new kittens may be controlled. Mis.
