LET JUSTICE BE PROMPT

St Paul Pioneer Press-The strong
hand OF the United States of America
has taken a strangle grip on the neck
of the alien snake which has slipped
into our midst from the bolshevik
fens of red Russia. Hundreds of these
Shiny agents of Trotsky and Lenine,
foes of our government and enemies
of our national life, are wriggling in
the grasp off justice. They were
seized in the midst of the poison prop
aganda they had prepared to spread
on the second anniversary of the in
auguration of the reign Of horror in
Russia as the elimination of a plot
openly to defy the authority of the
people of the United States and at
tempt to bring on the red terror Of
sovietism.
There is here no question of guilt.
The effort to poison the nation Is ad-
mitted with brazen effrontery The
foes of the republic are taken red
handed, surrounded by the poison pre-
pared for administration. They awail
only the vengeance Of aroused and
indignant justice.

CURING PElTS FOR THE MARK EFT

excepting beaver, the pelt of which
is sent to market fiat, slit is made
across beneath the tail from heel 70
heel, the skin being reversed as the
body is withdrawn. The tail and base
of the ears should be skinned out, ac-
cording to instructions issued by the
biological survey of the United States
Department of Agriculture. Skins are
a good source of revenue if properly
cured. Fresh skins should be divested
of loose fat and muscle and then
either tanned at once or cured so as
to be kept without deterioration until
a convenient time for tanning arrives.
They are cured by being stretched free
of wrinkles, flesh side exposed, and
left in cool, shady airy place. In a
moist atmosphere or where haste is
imperative, the flesh side may be COW

SOUTH DAKOTA LAGGING

"Not ten per cent of the merchants
make a real effort to sell goods" is
the statement Of Fred p. Mann OF
Devils Lake, N. D., who thinks that
advertising is the greatest thing on
earth. He said so at a dinner given
him at st. Paul by the jobbers and
manufacturers Of the city, VINO talked
over their recent Victory Trade

the hardware branch of his business.

roads are getting ready for return
to private operation at the beginning
of the year. The government, has
stopped interference with the appoint

positions abolished by the government
are being revived, and restrictions on
routing imposed by the government
on shippers are being removed. The
private owners will take up the bur

money at the peak of big business

his boy devised and made 1t for his
hard-working mother he became con-

vitalized education worth considering.
He told his boy that after this he could
have all the lumber that he wanted.
He wanted to know, however, where
the lumber for the table came from.
The boy told him that 1t came from
the old henhouse that had long been
abandoned.
The other incident was one in which
a boy asked his father for some pieces
of rope with which to learn to tie
knots and to make spices. The re-
quest was Indignantly refused. A few
DAYS afterwards the father and three
other men were putting hay in the
NOW and the rope they were using
broke in two and they were trying
to fix it by tying it together. They
could not make it pass through the
pulley. Just about that time, the
boy came home from school, saw
their predicament, and asked them to
let him try to mend the break for
them. He cut off the broken ends
and spliced the rope so neatly and
firmly that it was almost as good as
new. Afterwards the father bought
enough of three sizes of rope to sup
ply the whole school. He, too, be-
