Saving the cornstalks
(Prairie Farmer)

A census Of Kankakee county, Illinois,
taken through the schools. shows that
not a single farmer burned his stalks
this spring. Two or three years ago
cornstalk bonfires were a common sight
in Kankakee county in the spring. Since
then the county advisor has been talk
inc OF the value Of cornstalks as a
source Of organic matter. and the re-
suit is that the wasteful practice OF
burning the stalks has been entirely
eliminated.
A similar census shows that 70 per
cent. Of the Kankakee county farmers
treated their oats for smut this spring.
All Of which means that kankakee
county farmers are wide-awake and
looking for opportunities to add to their
farm profits.

AMERICAN IS SLAIN
BY CARRANzA men

Eel Paso, Tex, Dec. 16.-An Ameri-
can citizen, Alfonzo Leiva, formerly
of Brownsville, Tex, was executed in
Juarez by the military authorities on
Oct. 2l, according to a report brought

ed from the Juarez Jail after being
held several weeks on a minor charge.
Leiva was a former Villa lieutenant
colonel. who was granted amnesty by
the Carranza government and after
wards was arrested in Juarez by Car
rama officers, the American said.
According to this American, who
made full report of the execution to
the United States government agents
here. an effort was made by Leiva to
obtain a pardon because of his nation
ality, but the Carranza officers inform
ed him he had forfeited his citizenship
when he joined Villa.
Villa and his main command have
started south toward Torreon, accord
ing to information received here.

MOVING TO LAKE ANDES
Town of Wheeler Promises to BE a
Deserted Village.

Sioux Falls, Dec. 19.-There are
indications that considerable part
of the historic old town of Wheeler
will be moved to Lake Andes, which
at the election in November captured
the county seat from Wheeler after
the latter had held it since the early
days of the state. Within a few
days after the result of the election
was officially announced automobile
loads of Lake Andes men proceeded
TO Wheeler and moved the county
records to the new county seat. Now
the owners of several dwelling
houses at Wheeler are arranging to
have the buildings placed on wheels
and moved across the prairie to Lake
Andes. 1t is expected the exodus of
buildings from Wheeler to Lake An
des soon will begin. Whether or not
any of the business houses will be
moved from Wheeler to Lake Andes
is as yet unknown.

GROCERS PROSECUTED
BUTCHERS ALSO CALLED TO AC.
COUNT UNDER STATE PURE
FOOD LAW.

Vermillion, Dec. 19.-The state
food and drug department, which is
located at the University of South
Dakota, has just received notice of
the conviction of two grocers and a
butcher at Watertown and another
butcher at Iroquois, for violation OF
the pure food and drug laws. In
spector Harry Lobald detected the
violations The grocers at Water
town had been selling cane vinegar
as cider vinegar, and at the price of
real cider vinegar. The butcher at
Watertown was caught with ice on
his oysters. The water from the
melting ice violates the law which
provides that no water shall be added
to oysters for sale All three of
these men plead guilty and paid
their fines. The indictment against
the Iroquois butcher was for slaugh-
tering a diseased animal. The case
was brought to court and tried un-
der an old statute, the validity OF
which was unknown The successful
prosecution of this case revived the
value of the statute and will make
future prosecutions easier and prob.
ably secure convictions against viola
tions which would otherwise remain
unpunished. The case had been
pending since last summer. 1t was
first tried in justice court. The
defendant was fined SIS and costs
He appealed and was fined 500 IN
the circuit court. He had knowingly
slaughtered a COW much emaciated
| from the effects of the advanced
stage of lump jaw

chimney frequently went down into
his dining room.
Recently Mr.. Boehm decided to use
the open fireplace, but found 1t impos

placed over the outlet to keep out the
bees. Believing some bricks from the
chimney had fallen down, he set a
man to work making the clearance.
Operations from the roof stirred up a
fuss among the bees, which still inhab-
tied the chimney.
The workman decided TO chloroform
the bees and, placing saturated rag
upon the end of q long pole, went
about the task. When the stick was
pulled up again, however. the rag was
dripping with honey. the weight Of
