HALL FOUND GUILTY
OF VIOLATING THE
STATE LIQUOR Law

T. C. Hall, arrested Nov. Z, 1917,
with 1877 quarts OF liquor in his pos
session, was found guilty last evening
of violating the Idaho liquor law and
will tomorrow morning be sentenced
by Judge Carl Davis. Guilty Of all
three counts charged against him In
the complaint was the findings Of the
jury after a elaboration OF less than
half an hour The charges were the
transportation of Intoxicating liquor
through Ada county for beverage pur-
poses, having in his possession intoxi-
eating liquor for beverage purposes
and having intoxicating liquor in his
possession.
The trial Monday afternoon did not
last long. Sheriff Pfost testified to the
trailing and arresting of Hall with
liquor in his possession, and also OF
his having in his company a woman
by the name OF Jennie Smith. The
arrest, he testified. was made 10 miles
from Boise in tho evening.
ARGUED BY ATTORNEYS.
e. g. Delana, prosecuting attorney
waived the opening argument, but an
swered the defense, whose argument
was to the effect that 1t had not beer
proven that Hall owned the automo-
bile in which the liquor was found
that 1t was not established 1t was fol
beverage purposes and further that Il
was not proven that Hall owned the
whisky. The sheriff had testified tha
Hall took several drinks from the tint
he was arrested until the county jai
was reached. and by reason of tina
fact, the prosecuting attorney contend
ed the liquor was for beverage pur
poses and the jury held with him.
| Hall has been out on bail since /.
short time after his arrest and hi
bail was continued after he had beef
found guilty.
The liquor case in which Vincent
Bilbao and r, B. Howard are defend
ants. which was to have been hear
today. was postponed until April Q, a
one of the defendants is showed In o.

financial returns. Mr.. Cook was
agent for the Hugoton Town Com
pany and mentions receiving in one
mail an order for over $1,000 worth
Of town lots and stated that the sale
of lots since the county seat was es-
tablished was over $4,000. The
bonds for the Missouri Pacific was
carried by vote of 43S to 371 and
the Herald expressed the opinion that
HugotoH would be great railroad
center, for "the X. & s. W., the, G. X.
& W., the Rock Island, the X. G. &
Texas, and the o. l.. H. & Ell Paso are
rapping at our doors and are sure to
form functions at Hugoton." In the
meantime, mail was carried over the
sCyclone Mail Stage Line" from
Hartland to Hugoton and no Mans
Land" and a company had been
formed to run stage line to optima
in the Neutral Strip or mo Mans
Land" with an equipment of five
hacks and forty horses. High hopes
and great ambitions seem to have in
spired the early citizens here as much
as in any place that ever was struck

HOW ADVERTISING GETS
TRADE IN THE COUNTRY

A Missouri lumber dealer is known
among lumbermen as champion
dull season advertiser. He, like
many other lumber dealers, employees
carpenters for his customers who de-
sire building done. Last winter in
the dull season he kept his carpenters
busy constructing hog houses. The
houses were simple affairs and were
made largely from rough lumber.
When February LIST arrived he
placed two-column, eight-inch adj
vertisement in his two local papers
offering his hog houses for sale. The
ad had picture of a real Missouri
pig at the top and under it the head
that zone Out of Three Dies" Then
under this headline appeared plate
of the new hog house and under the
plate statement that the college OF
agriculture had prepared statistics
showing that out of every brood of
young pigs, one out of three usually
dies from exposure. The ad went on
to say that this simple house that
could be purchased for only $4.75 OF
a larger one for $6,S5 would help to
prevent this enormous loss in pork
ers.
The ads in the two papres brought
in something better than $500 in new
business Gin the dull season"
He laughs at the merchant who
tells him there is such thing as 8

In these days of wheat and
meat conservation, suggestions
of ways to extend meat flavor are
welcome. A dish which has a
strong meaty flavor is peculiarly
satisfying when combined with
some bulky foo], such as corn
meal or other cereal. It is es-
pecially satisfactory as we'll as
relatively high in food value.
This is the type of dish, too,
which, combined with fruit or
green vegetables, forms a desir-
able meal combination. Such a
one is we'll exemplified in ''scrap-
ple," the dish so common among
the Pennsylvania Dutch" It
is a combination Of meat scraps
and broth with cornmeal, and
needs thorough cooking. Use Z
cup of cornmeal. salt and pepper
and ! pound of pork with bone
shoulder, neck or ham shank.
Cook the pork in water until the
meat can be easily removed from
the bone. Remove the meat.
Boil down the broth to about a
quart or add water to bring it up
to this amount. Cook the corn
meal in this. Add meat finely
chopped, and seasonings. Pour
into pans; when cold, cut in slic-
es and brown in hot t.-Rhoda
