BRITISH LEAGUE PREPARES
FOR HOME RULE WAR

London, Dec. 1S.-A widespread
movement, having for its object the
care of the women and children of
Ulster in the event civil war should
follow the enactment of the Home
Rule bill, is under way in England.
At the instance of the British League
for the support of Ulster, many wo-
men throughout the country who are
favorable to the cause of the anti
home rulers have agreed to each
take certain number of mothers
and children and to house them dur.
ing the continuance of hostilities.
Others are forming nursing corps,
and from various sections reports
are coming in of large numbers of
volunteers for this service. The
league claims to have more than
800 recruiting agents in the field
throughout England, Scotland and
Wales, and that men are pledging
themselves at the rate of a hundred a
day to join the proposed Ulster Aux
iliary Force.

Tank after tank blew up, some OF
them lifted clear of their foundations
and hurled high in the air within
sight of the crowd gathered at safe
distance to watch the spectacular
blaze. Many thrilling rescues were
effected by the police and fremen,
who risked their lives among the high
explosives time and again in dragging
persons to safety.
A 1O-year old boy was seen run
ming among the tanks shortly after
the first series of explosions occur

and carried him to safety at the risk
of his own life.

spring work.
w. b. York and Pat McFadden
took two wagon loads of turkeys
over to Rogue River Saturday. Tur-
keys are a good price now and 1t
seems to pay all who raise them well,
as they find plenty to eat on the
farms and do not require much feed
until fall.
See those carving sets for $2.25
and $2.75 at Cramer Bros.
Alfred Lilly, former resident of
this place, has been visiting with his
sister, Mrs. George Matney, for the

Most all of our alfalfa growers
around here have been investing In
a few sacks OF Mococo land plaster
for a trial, and should 1t prove as
good for the ground as is advertised
1t will be great thing and will In
crease the tonnage of alfalfa here
wonderfully.
What fall grain has been planted
this fall looks real good and the
prospects of good yield are en-
couraging. More would have been
sown had the rains not lasted so long
and the foggy weather of late not
stayed so long.
We notice that the department Of
agriculture is going to discontinue
the free distribution Of garden seeds
in the future and instead will send
those who apply for 1t different kinds
OF grass seeds in quantities enough
for an acre or less.
