Dry, But Murder Increases


A member of the pardon
Board of Arizona says there
were fifteen murders in Mari
copa county alone, a large in
crease and an increase in the
state. He says that tho the
state is dry there is some
illegal selling of liquor but the
great majority of murders were
not attributable to drunkenness.
He thinks abolishing the death
penalty is largely responsible for
the increase in homicide. What
ever else it may be in Arizona it
is not liquor which has brought
about a most serious condition,
and other dry territory is con-
fronted with nearly if not quite
as ugly repetition of a favorite
argument 7

Prisoners Doing Road Work
In Dunk1in County

The second honor road camp
in Missouri, providing work for
25 prisoners from the State peni-
tentiary, has been established at
Kennett, Dunklin county. The
state road under construction
extends east from the Arkansas
state line through Kennett to
the Pemiscot county line. a dis
tance of 8 miles and a project
is now under consideration to
extend the road IL miles east
through Hayti to Caruthersvilie
An idea of the Importance Of
this road is gained from the fact
that it is now necessary to drive
a distance of more than l25
miles around a swamp in order
to travel by wagon or auto from
Kennett to Hayti. When this
road is constructed the distance
will be 20 miles, as straight as
a crow flies, and there will be
a heavy tonnage pass over the
road to shipping points on the
Mississippi River.

Thanksgiving

AS we go to press preparations
in one form or another are under
way for feast on good things
such as are within the reach of
those who give their thanks for
health, prosperity and peace thru
special preparations for dinner,
Whether it be the proper turkey
or chickens, rabbit or rooster
on which reliance is placed for
the extra good thing at the meal
the feasters will be equally con-
tent when filled and equally as
thankful for what they had.
If it were possible to provide
a sumptuous repast for all those
in our land who have not tasted
a good thing well cooked since
they were ushered into the world
the providers would realize more
true enjoyment than they could
possibly from surfeiting them
selves. While 'partaking of the
dinner if your thots wander
ed to others and you pictured
some poor family dining on what
to it was excellent but which
would have deprived you of ap-
pitite for months had you been
a partaker, did it not occur to
you that next Thanksgiving day
you would surely see to it that
some half starved vagabond fam
lily had reasons to believe and be
thankful for the existence of
good people who take as much
or more pleasure in contributing
to the enjoyment of those who
are unable to supply themselves
with means as they do in enter
tanning those to whom it is not
only not a favor but at times a
bore.

Dangerous To ship Soft Corn

Dangerous To Ship Soft Corn
Washington D. C. The United
State Department of Agriculture
has been advised that a large
amount of soft corn arriving at
large grain markets in the Middle
West is in danger of spelling. Ow-
ing to congestion of terminals at
these points, railroads are unable
to deliver corn promptly to drying
plants where it can receive pro-
per care. This corn is especially
liable to get out of condition while
being held on track during warm
weather.
In order to prevent the spoil
age of such soft corn it is recon-
mended that until cold weather
sets in farmers and country ship
pers delav the movment of such
soft corn from the field unless
conditions at the point at which
the corn. is shipped are such
that the corn can be given quick
attention for conditioning.

Hog Cholera in the County


hog cholera continue to come to
this Office. 1t is certainly unfor-
tunate that these outbreaks have
occurred bat will be more unfor-
tunate if we do not take ade-
quate measures to suppress this
disease. In the first place too
many are perhaps not familiar
with the law relating to hog
cholera. For the benefit of all
concerned | am quoting parts of
sections that should make the
matter clear.
Section l. That it shall be un-
lawful for any persons to sell or
offer for sale any swine in this
state which is infected with the
hog cholera or any other disease;
or to drive on foot. or haul in
any wagon or other conveyance,
any such infected swine along, or
across, any public highway, or
across or over, any infected land
in this state; provided that this
section shall not be so construed
as to prohibit the movement of
such swine under conditions pre-
scribed by the state veterinarian,
for the purpose of segregation
or quarantine.
Sec. 2. That it shall be the
duty of the owner, or other per-
sons in charge of any swine
which shall die of any disease,
to burn the carcass or carcasses
on the premises where death oc-
cured within twenty four hours
after its death.
Sec. 8. If any person whose
duty it is under the provisions of
section 2 of this act. to burn the
carcass or carcasses of any such
swine. shall fail within twenty
four hours after death thereof
to SO burn such carcass or car
casses, it shall be the duty of
the constable of the township in
which such swine died, to pro-
ceed forthwith to Burn such car
cass or carcasscs.
Sec. A. Whenever any con-
stable shall burn the carcass or
corcasses of any such swine as
provided in the preceding section
he shall have the right to re-
cover of, and from the owner or
other person in charge of such
swine when il died. the sum of
one dollar for each carcass so
burned, together with the costs
of necessary materials for the
burning of same, to be recover
ed by civil action in any court of
competent jurisdiction together
with the costs of such action,
provided. that this section shall
not be so construed as to exempt
any such owner or keeper from
the fines and penalties hereinaf-
ter provided for the violation of
this act.
Sec. 5. 1t shall be the duty
of every owner Or person in
charge of any infected or dis
eased swine in this state to inn
mediately notify all persons own
ing or keeping swine on adjoin-
ing premises, of the existence of
such disease or infection. The
placing of a yellow cloth flag in
size net less than ten inches by
twelve inches, at the gate of
ses ch entrance to the premises on
which such diseased or infected
swine may be, shall be deemed
sufficient notice to all such per-
sons of the existence of such
infection or disease.
Sec. 6. Any person who shall
violate any of the provisions of
this act shall be deemed guilty of
a misdemeanor and upon convic-
tion thereof. shall be punished
by a fine of not less than ten
dollars, nor more than fifty dol
lars. y
