road and arrived at 9:45 p. m.
The prisoners were guarded in their
car by sixteen detectives and offlcers.
The car was kept securely locked
and no one was granted permission to
the car except an Associated Press
man and a few other newspaper men,
who boarded the train at Youngstown.
1t was the unanimous opinion Of
the officers that 1t would be safer
not 10 take any chances by exposing
their prisoners to the wrath Of the
Sharon populace. &
To Jail in Auto.
On the arrival OF the train here the
prisoners were placed in an automo.
bile belonging to Harry Perkins. and
rushed to the county jail. Boyle was
manacled and guarded by two detec-
tfyes, but the woman was allowed to
walk quietly beside Harry Perkins.

a small crowd was at the station
when the train drew In. However,
the news spread rapidly and quite a
throng surrounded the automobile be-
fore 1t left the depot. Mrs. Boyle
turned to Inspector Lawrence Barley
and remarked: n
; This Is quite 40 ovation"
The inspector replied:

On the arrival at the jail, Mrs. Boyle

1t Is the intention Of the officers to
keep their prisoners in tae jail here
for several days and at some time
when the public Is not expecting It
to remove them t. the Mercer county
jail, where they will be kept until the
grand Jury convenes the third week
In April.
Boyle and his wife have made It
easy for the officers by waivlng extra
dltion papers and coming voluntarily
to pennsylvania. They have also
waived formal arraignment. which will
admit to their being taken TO Mercer

Cement Hog walIow.

A recent introduction in several up
to-date farm yards are cement hog
wallows. They are supplied periodical
" with fresh water and the approaches
are made by pounding cobble stones
into the earth to prevent mud mixing
in with the water. Sometimes lice rem
edies of an oily nature are poured in
the wallow with the water. Being
lighter, of course, the antiseptic stuff
floats and the hogs can't go in without
getting an oily coating all over them.
This is Objectionable, unless the rem
edy is harmless to the hog, inside as
well as out, because hogs will sometimes
drink from the wallow; but even this
is taken advantage of by using lice

At RodmaH Village, Jefferson Coun-

Products Company has erected a plant
for the manufacture of butter from

are supplying it with separator cream
taken from whey. The butter made is
said to be equal to best creamery but
ter. The loss Of butter-fat in cheese
making has long troubled factorymen,
1t being found impossible to incorporate
all the fat in the cheese. The new sys-
TEN appears to have solved the ques-
ton, and patrons are netting about

this source. The whey is said to be
worth as much for feeding as before,

through the separator at a higher tenn

retarding the action Of Tactic acid.
About four pounds of butter is obtain

To ensure rapid healing In the plant
after pruning it is necessary that all
wounds should be left smooth. If it is
necessary to use a saw in removing a
large limb the cut surface should be
left smooth and clean, particularly
around the edges. The sharper the saw
the cleaner will the cut be and this
should in turn be made smoother by
the use of a pruning knife or a sharp
chisel, as the healing process starts
quicker and progresses more rapidly
when this precaution is observed. 1t
frequently happens that in order to OBJ
tain the best results in removing large
branches, two cuts should be made. The
limb may be sawed off IS inches or 2
feet above the point Of its origin in
order to prevent splitting down and
tearing off a considerable part Of the
bark. After the weight of the limb
