FARMER DEFENDS HIS HOUND
AND SAYS HE is WAR WINNER
Editor, Hustler

Editor, Hustler:
After seeing as many fox tracks in
the snow as were seen in and around
near the homes we feel like saying
amen to MI. Freeman's article in
the Hustler recently about dogs.
We farmers can not do without the
Collie and hounds and we can't pay
an overtaX on them. The town man
has no use for a dog and they are the
ones who are crying more sheep meat.
One seldom sees a dog that is any
good that will kill sheep.
There are people in this community
forty years old who never saw a
| ground until two or three years ago
and since that state there has been
quite a number killed right in the
heart of the valley.
When the farmers have to give UP
their hounds and shepherd dogs, poul-
try, sheep and pork will soar above
the town folks purse who have pref
ty little poodies to are for instead
of doing something for the poor.
Get rid of those disgusting little
poodles and other worthless dogs and
let the farmer list his hound and
| shepherd along with his other proper
ty and let him keep it for he is q

lowing the disorders of last night
which reached a climax when a mob
seized S. Oberdan, an alleged I. w. W
leader and John H. Metzen, his at
torney, stripped them, applied coats
of tar and feathers and then started
them waking from the town in OPP
posite directions.
Leaders of the mob, who accused
the two men of being disloyal, round
ed up a hundred persons whom they
charged with being pro-German and
forced them to kiss the American
flag. They said the action was to
clean the community of pro-German-
ism. No arrests have been made,

RUSSIA OUT OF WAR;
HOW AMERICANS VIEW 1T

Washington, Feb. 12.-With the
opening. of the great campaign OF
1918 on the western front apparently
within sight, military men here eX-
amined with profound interest the
situation created by the signing of a
peace pack between the central pow
ers and the new Ukraine republic anG
the decision of the Bolsheviki Rus
sian government to stop fighting anG
demobiliZe the army.
Their conclusions were not dis
couraging. These events on their face
would appear to set free enormous
German forces for the impending baS-
tie in the west and also, to furnish
new sources of food supply for the
Teutonic allies, but many factors
which detract from the advantages
the central powers may derive.
One of the threats against the west
err front dwelt upon in public dis
cussions is the fact that presumably
800, 900 prisoners of war held in
Russia would be released to strength
en- the German army.
The fact is said to be, however,
that the great majority of the sol
rieds captured by the Russians are
Austrians, not available for western
front operations by present indica-
tons. Most of the others are civil
ians or camp followers of one kind
or another, so far as known, only a
small number of German troops were
captured on that front. ANY men from
the prison camps are regarded as or
doubtful military value for some time
to come, as the Russians, unable to
feed their own soldiers, hardly have
improved the health of captiVes.

Many of these men have not regis

enacted primarily to enable them to

You are required by the law to keen

Your prompt attention to this mat
ter will be appreciated.
Very truly yours,
