sassssER loF THE ASSOCIATED FIRES.

The meeting of the civic league at
Valley City appears to have been
prolific of many suggestions toward
the improvement of the appearance
of cities, as well as the improvement
of business methods or matters of
a more sordid nature. Civic inn
provement bodies working in hand
with city administrator can do much
and citizens themselves can do much
to help. At the present time we
would suggest that a body to work
unitedly toward the eradication of the
scourge of dandelions, which is TAX
ing possession of lawns and parks
in the city would be practical way
of getting at this blight. A few years
of united effort would reduce the
number, instead of permitting to
spread until it takes possession of
all vacant places and streets. The
city might also do something to help.

pute in the trial of the case was
whether the defendant sold beer or
malt. The undisputed evidence show
ed that If it was malt it was not in
toicating. Judge Pollock instruct
ed the jury that they might convict
in either case if the liquor contain
ed the alcoholic principle and could
be used as a beverage and sub
ing liquor This instruction the SUI
preme court finds error, and rever-
ses the conviction ordering new
trial Judge Spalding and disquali-
fed in the case and Judge Temple
ton sat by request. The syllabus of
the opinion is as follows:
In a prosecution for selling intoxi-
eating liquor as a beverage, contrary
to law, the only question in dispute
was as to whether the beverage sold
was beer or malt, the state claiming
it was beer and the defendant claim
ing it was malt The undisputed evid-
.ence shows that if malt, it was not
intoxicating. Held, Error for the trial
court to instruct the jury upon the
theory that they might convict if they
found that the liquid sold was either
malt or any other compound or mix
ture if it contained the alcoholic pTin-
ciple and could reasonably be used as
a beverage and as a substitute for the
ordinary intoxicating liquors.

miums for the fruit show to be held at
Purdue university during the week Of
the farmers short course, Jan. 1918
Prof. c. G. Woodbury.. Of the expe.
iment station. says: This money IS
being offered because the Indiana Hor-
ticultural society feels that the re-
sources of Indiana as a fruit state, and
the possibilities for making money in
commercial fruit growing are not I'M
derstood as they should be by the far
mers. This exhibition will be of es-
pecial value to fruit growers from the
educational viewpoint, because of the
opportunity afforded by the short
course in fruit growing for getting
practical information concerning va
rieties, methods of orchard manage
ment. insects, spraying and spray mix
lures. The fruit business of Indiana
is still In its infancy. Every fruit
grower should plan to attend the short
course and make an exhibit. The con-
test is open TO every farmer in the
