ternoon from week spent in visiting
sales of pure-bred Duroc Jersey hogs
at Algona,, Iowa, and at Worthing-
ton, MINI. At the sale held by VIM.
Shank of Worthington, Mr.. Conner
purchased two sows, both the best in
their class. For one of them he paid
$4,000, the other costing little less
The first animal mentioned was one
of the three highest-priced animals
sold and will make splendid addition
to Mr.. Corners high class herd. The
prices which the animals brought at
this sale were the highest average
prices of any sale ever held in America
which proves that the author who said
s'pigs is pigs" was entirely wrong
they are so many pounds of solid gold!
Mr.. Conner has returned from these
sales little more of a champion for
the Duroc Jerseys than before he left,
and is convinced that everything is pos
sible to the man who raises hogs pro-
vided he gets -breds, of the right
breed.

WOMEN MUST FACE SOCIALISM
WHICH STRIKES AT THE HOME
Already Grave Menace Seen as Rea-

Already Grave Menace Seen as Rea-
son For Joining Saner Parties
A startling confirmation of a state
ment made recently by Senator James
e. Watson Republican, of Indiana.
that Socialism strikes at the home
and at family life has just come to
light in a Teachers Convention held
IN Oakland, California. 1t is a potent
reason for women to align themselves
with parties strong enough to combat
this lnsldious evil that would debauch
innocent children. According to VIM.
j. Cooper, president of the bay section
OF the California Teachers Associa-
ton, copies of the Soviet Government
OF Russia are being surreptitiously
placed in the hands of school children
throughout California.
The actual constitution which We
known as the Russian Soviet constitu-
ton, is being widely circulated" de-
clared Mr.. Cooper. "The work is 90
ing on secretly, covertly, under the
noses of the American government
and the educational staff of the whole
state. In the absence of race patriot
ISM, it is necessary to educate chill
dren along practical national lines
rather than historical ones, in order
to combat it. A greater battle than
the European conflict is being waged
here in America. The teachers are
the fighters, the potential moulders
OF youthful ideals. We must begin at
once stamping out this insidious prom
uganda by intelligent education"
