No barley, corn, or rye or wheat or any thing that's good to eat, shall be made into mountain dew. Nor rice shall enter brew. No apples. be they Falls or June's, no peaches, apricots or prunes, no berries shall give up their juice for any kind of liquor use. John Barleycorn you've run your string, though, I admit, you've left sting in many hearts which might have been the bravest, truest, hearts of men-so then until the judgment morn, I'll say goodbye Old John Barleycorn.-C.

 This was the confession made to the police here yesterday by Mike Baca, charged with murdering Ben Rogers, of Logan, Utah, whose hor- ribly mutilated body was found in a river bed near here Wednesday. Af- ter grabbing Rogers knife. Baca, ac- cording to the police. confessed that he cut Rogers throat from ear to ear, stuck the knife in Rogers breast and back and jumped into the nearby river to wash the blood from his clothes.

A large truck came in over the trail from Chitina yesterday. At Mile 20 it went over the steep bank, and was pulled out later and came into town under it's own power little in- jured by the mishap. One of the pas sengers was slightly injured by jump ing from the vehicle when it left the road, but the driver was uninjured. In coming down the long grade from the Summit the driver temporarily lost control of the car, and meeting a team and wagon coming up the hill, voluntarily drove off the trail to escape colliding with them.

JOHN BARLEYCORN, GOODBYE!

Come all you sots and sodden soaks and live among the sober folks and give your song another tone; the states as dry as any bone, as any bone the state is dry and I'm con- fessing, So Am l. When prohi's went to talking first I never did think that the worst would come to you and l, but it's sure enough good bye and I am feeling all forlorn and miss my old John Barleycorn. 1 miss the Schooner and the Schnitt and miss my Schnops, yes quite bit. l miss the good old Rock & Rye, good bye old Barleycorn, goodbye. Good bye to moonshine in the hills to cop per worms and all distills, no more we'll quaff the tempting horn; good bye Old John Barleycorn.
 Goodbye to Schlitz and Bud and Ann; you've been the ruin of many a man, and robbed the cradle like a knave, robbed everything except the grave. You sung our boys song of praise and pointed out the fiowery ways which only death can travel in |: the garland path of secret sin. So long Old John for quite awhile, you we caused us tears and many smile; ; you've led our feet along the way where youth and beauty love to stray and whispered falsely in our ears about the beaded wine that cheers. From out amongst the ranks of men we marched to bawdy house and den. Each flower of yours contained a thorn; goodbye to you, John Bar feycorn.
 John Barleycorn, you've left a pain for every spear of golden grain which you've consumed since you were born; and left every grain of corn a broken heart, a broken life, an orphan child, a weeping wife, a daughter fair gone astray, in fact you've strewn along the way of life the wrecks of human hearts, you've pierced the breast with poisoned darts and let the mother and the bride to mingle with the surging tide their tears of grief for them that fall, ah, what salesman sent from hell you've been and still will ever be, for even Jesus could not free sinful world for the Divine. He turned the water into wine, and good, old, Noah soaked his hat and clothes for booze on Ararat. I loved you once, I love you still and John, guess always will, till Gabriel blows his mighty horn--good-bye to you John Barley corn.
 Goodbye to booze and beer and wine-hello! there's Wilson on the line who thinks the blow is far too hard to suit the high up menu card.

BOYS ON THE FARM

The experiment of placing city schoolboys on farms to assist in fruit picking and grain harvesting is work ing out satisfactorily in the East and South. The New York military train ing commission has already placed more than 10000 boys on farms in that state, and farmers are reporting that they learn what is required of them very quickly and are not afraid of hard work.
 In the South labor is scarce on ac- count of the negro exodus to the North. More than 1000 boys from Washington, Baltimore and nearby cities are gathering the big potato crop on the Eastern shore, which is rich agricultural district of Mary land. There are 2,O00 New York City boys at work in New Jersey and Pennsylvania farms.
 The moral welfare of the young workers is looked after by philan- thropic men and women who have es- tablished camps under proper sup ervision. The boys are thus comfort ably cared for, protected from bad influences, are enjoying healthful outdoor work and at the same time receiving liberal wages. They are probably much better off than they would have been at home, with lib erty to spend their time upon the city streets.
 Boys are thus accomplishing i'm portant work for the nation and at the same time benefiting themselves. In our own state boys have already given good service in berry picking, and the advance guard of the army of the young is about to start for the farms. It is probable that Washing ton boys will acquit themselves at least as creditably as those of the East and South.-Seattle P. I.
