New York, Feb. 23-The Carib for

and was recently sold by them to
Walker, Armstrong & Co., of Savan-

den and left Charleston January 27

She had capacity of 4,6OO bales.
Her crew of 30 men, commanded
by Capt. E. l.. Cole, which manned

The Carib was built in 1882 at Port

At the offices of the Clyde Line
here it was said nothing had been
heard from the Carib since she left
Charleston for Bremen January 27.
Sailed Last Month.
Charleston, Feb. 23.-The Carib
sailed from Charleston on January 27
with a cargo of cotton loaded here
by the Carolina company. She was
purchased by the Clyde Line COM
pany during the Spansh-American
war and was for some time on the
regular freight run between Char
lesion and other Clyde Line ports of
call along the Atlantic coast.
The fate of several steamers en-
route from Charleston to ports of
northern Europe has given rise to
some anxiety among local shippers,
since the establishment of the war
zone throughout the waters surround
ing the United Kingdom in so far as
it lies within the power of forces at
the command of the German empire
to maintain it, especially following
the news today of the Carib's fate.
No little interest is expressed in the
outcome of the voyage which the
British steamer Benarty commenced
on Saturday when she put to sea
from Charleston for Liverpool Capt.
Reid figured before leaving that he
would make Liverpool in Is days,
with favorable weather conditions.
The Benarty made the trip here from
Cardiff in 10 days.

SUCCESSFUL SKUNK FARMS
How They Should Be Run and
Stocked


Within the corporate limits of z
small Ohio city are three skunk farms
On each farm are maintained an aver.
age of so skunks. The little patches
of ground occupied by the skunks are
called farms by courtesy, says T.. p
Snyder in Farm and Home, but none
Of them occupy more than half acre
The farms are surrounded by a
close woven galvanized wire fence Sc;
two feet in the ground to prevent the
animals from burrowing out. On top
of the fence is laid at right angles a
strip Of lS-inch chicken wire to keep
them from climbing over
These three farms are on side hills.
Near the top of the hills are built
diminutiye little coops or houses for
"dormitories." In these are boxes Of
clean straw or other nesting material,
and here the animals live most Of the
time. These homes are reached
through six-inch tile laid two feet
underground, and the whole plant is
made to conform as nearly as possible
10 the conditions that surround the
animals in their wild state.
Their feed consists mostly Of meat
scraps from the butcher shops, eggs
that are candIed out by shippers,
sweet corn in season and table scraps.
While they are carnivorious. they rel
ish some Of the garden vegetables.
They hibernate a good part of the
winter not coming out Of their dens
during severe weather. In the wild
state they burrow but little, and at
the approach Of cold weather go into
the dens Of the marmots and appear
TO live with them peaceably. There
seems to be a sort Of affinity between
the two animals.
These farms are stocked by catching
wild skunks and putting them in the
enclosure Ii might be thought that
they would be a little disagreeable to
handle alive, but ii has been found
that II the tail can be kept in line with
the spinal column they can't eject the
fetid, acrid fluid their most effective
means Of defence.
One hunter who makes a specially

for help.

portunity and when the skunk's atten
ton is entirely occupied by the dog h,
slips up behind, grabs him by the tai
and jerks him into the air. With his
feet off the ground and his tail II
line with his spinal column he cam
throw his odor. 1t is then easy foI
the hunter TO transfer him to the farm
and introduce him to his comrades in
captivity.
After few months of captivity
they become quite as tame as domes-
tic animals. They are fed once a day
and will come at the call or whistle of
their masters like a herd Of little pigs,
crowding into the basket of meat and
fighting among themselves for the
best scraps.
The process Of removing the scent
pouch is simple one and requires no
more skill than the sactration of a
pig. They recover readily from the
operation and can thereafter be handl-
ed with perfect safety.
Skunks breed once year. The
young are born in May, from five to
eight in each litter. BY the following
December or January they have at
tanned their growth. The fur is then
prime and they are killed and the furs
put on the market When furs were
high in 1914 pelts brought $3.50 to
S4.75 each. Ladies' skunk fur capes
sell as high as $65. In England the
furs Of skunk are called skunk, but in
America milady calls it Alaska

PEACE WHILE YOU WAIT

1t is not true, even if Franklin is
reputed to have said il, that "there
never was a good war or bad peace E"
We think Of Douglas Jerrold chiefly as
a wit, but no man ever uttered more
profound wisdom on this subject than
he when he said: I'VE love peace as
we abhor pusillanimity; but not peace
at any price. There is peace more
destructive Of the manhood Of living
man than war is destructive Of his
material body Chains are worse than
bayonets."
This view Of the case is to be COM
mended for reflection at this time

piping for Peace made while you
