PIGS IS PIGS, BUT DOGS
 ANT SHEEP NO TIME

That pigs is pigs, but dogs aint sheep no time" will be testified to today by Hugh McCrorie, of Ester creek, who purchased the carcass of 8 healthy malamute dog last even ing. under misrepresentation that it was mountain sheep meat.
 The get-rich-Quick meat trust that sold the carcass to it's victim re- ceived the mLuificent sum Of $500 and assured Mr. McCrorie that he was getting a bargain, as the only reason that the restaurants had re fused it was because the meat was too bloody"
 After the sale had been cousum- mated, the meat trust, composed of two well known characters of Fair banks, proceeded to have a hilar- ious evening on the proceeds, and at last reports were three sheets to the leeward.
 Although the carcass had been carefully skinned and all visible sign of dog removed, it took Tom Lloyd but a few moments to assure Mr. McCrorie that he had purchased @ fine specimen of malamute. The victim could not be convinced at first, but when one of the bystanders remarked about the tail, which was the regulation dog length, Hugh had to be helped to 8 shair.
 Although it was a good one on Hugh, Frank RourEe Was the real victim of the joke, as he sat by laughing at the vicctjm, not dream ing for a moment that it was his dog that the newly organized pack ing company had killed.
 Funeral services will be held this afternoon at o'clock.-Fairbanks Times.

DROUGHT BIG BOOST
 TO SCIENTIFIC FARMING

Manhattan, Kansas, Dec. 1S- Last summers drought proved Q big boost to scientific farming. Wher the dry heat began to wither the corn the Agricultural College auth critics advised immediate Construc- ton of silos and the hundreds of farmers who followed their advice not only saved their crops but are now converted to the use of the silos.
 Then too, the dry weather fur nished an excellent proof of what scientific farming would do.

The last state legislature provided for the introduction of vocational edu- cation in Indiana's public schools.
 That it amounts to a revolution in educational methods; that present teachers and school authorities haven't the slightest conception of how to institute and organize the new education, and that a survey of the state must be made to find out what work can profitably be taught to pupils were some of the points Professor Book made.
