BLIND TIGER AUTOS
May Be CONFISCATED

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. ia decis-
ion has just been handed down by the
United States circuit court OF appeals
for the fifth circuit to the effect that
the federal government has the right
to confiscate an automobile used in
transporting Illicit whiskey regard
less of whether the owner of the car
permitted such use of the car or not.
The Georgia bone dry prohibition
laws made special provision to protect
the owners of automobiles in cases
of this kind. This law provides that
an automobile used in transporting
prohibited liquor shall not be cOnfis-
Gated if the owner is able to prove to
the satisfaction of the court that it
was being used without his knowledge
or consent
This was the position taken by
Judge w. T. Newman Of the northern
district of Georgia in a recent case
where the owner of an automobile
showed that he was not responsible
for using it to transport Illicit liquor.
But the circuit court of appeals re-
verses this ruling and takes the ma
chine regardless of the owners guilty
knowledge Or innocence.

GEORGIA ASKED
To RAISE MORE
HOGS BY 10 PCT.

Georgia is called upon to increase
her hog population 10 per cent during
the coming year, according to James
E. Downing, State Pig Club agent, at
Athens. who issues the following
statement to the people of Georgia:
we must save in every way posi-
BILE that we may feed ourselves and
our allies and have on hand sur
plus for the starving peoples of the
earth.
That is the order sent out just re-
Gently by the federal food admins
tration. Just as soon as German arm
res are cleared away, food will be
required by the countries which have
been robbed by these armies of their
food supply
millions face starvation this win
ter. If food were abundant, it could
not be sent to them from this coun-
try on account of the congested con-
dition of transportation. There must
be between twenty and sixty million
people for whom there appear to be
no way to reach them.
There are millions of people today
in Serbia. Roumania, parts Of Russia
and China, that are facing actual star
walton. These people must be helped
next year, and the next year In fact,
Mr.. Hoover states that for the next
five years following the close Of the
war, some of the foreign countries
will have to be provided with food.
This all means that every pig that
can be raised to a hundred and fifty
pounds next year will find ready
market at a good price. Every female
hog that does not produce family OF
pigs next spring has robbed her owner
of the price of that litter. The litter
will not be forthcoming next spring
however, if the mating does not take
place this month, and the hog owner
who does not make it his business to
see that this is done and that pure
bred boar is used is cheating himself
out Of tidy sum of money and vast
ing much valuable time The same
amount of feed that will care for the
SOW this winter will take her through
carrying family of pigs.
"In all probability there will be a
premium paid for pigs next spring.
There has never been such a bright
prospect for big prices This is ex-
planned by the fact that the foreign
countries which have been at war
will have to buy a new stock of hogs
to build up meat supply. Hogs will
come first in the line of meat-food
animals, for the hog is the only ami
NAL from which edible meat can be
produced in period of eight months.
"It is highly important, therefore,
that every female INBRED should be
mated this month without fail. A
failure to do this is not only money
loss to the owner, but a neglect of
duty as we'll"

SHEEP RAISING PROFITABLE.

PHIPPsBURG, Me-, Nov. 19.-sheep
raising in this state is profitable in
the opinion of George D. Weston, Of
this place. Last spring he started
with fourteen sheep. He sold the
wool at 70 cents a pound, getting $65.
One lamb brought $40, two others SIG
and on butchering four more he re-
ceived $45. Weston got SO for the
pelts. The small flock earned $145
this season and Weston has 30 sheep
to start another year with.
