The Case of Ireland.

There is another land that lifted her
eyes with hope. She, too, had heard
these words about the right of people to
self-determination. about the end of
brutal power. A thousand years ago,

unlettered these people had sem!nafies
OF learning, to. which the intelligent
from all lands came. They were be-
trayed. they were overcome, but for zoo
years they kept up the fight. They saw
their men and women starving by the
thousands and the millions. They saw
themheaped in winnows OF skeletons
along the highways. They beheld their
population dwindled by starvation and
emigration in few years time from
about 100000 people they saw armies

foxes and shot like wild beasts, still the

there, and when these representatives
came and asked a hearing they were told
that this was a domestic question. and
now having been told that, they are now
told that they can get relief before the
League OF Nations. and at the same time

BUSY SATURDAY

Band Concert, Doughnut Sale,

Saturday night was probably one
OF the busiest ever known in Misha

behalf OF the Salvation Army, and
a human fly stunt which was
something of nzzle, the down

1t was generally admitted that there
was never such a crowd seen on the
streets at one time Automobiles

and many of the occupants were

a similar stunt in Mishawaka was

FARM DEPARTMENT
BY c. c. BAKER, County Agent.
THE WORLD DOES MOVE.

All farming operations are changing
rapidly in this Twentieth Century. or
course, there are among us those far
mers who cling to the methods of till
age and feeding OF a generation ago.
but the major portion OF the farmers
are ready and willing for any change
which will help their business. Per-
haps nothing has been so radically
changed in the past few years as the
method of feeding hogs That the
everyday farmer may understand how
hogs were fed when George Washing
ton farmed at Mt. Vernon, the county
agent is quoting below from a report
Of Mr.. Parkinson, an English agricul-
turist, who visited America in 1898:
THE real American hog Is what is
termed the wood hog; they are long
in leg, narrow in the back, short in
the body, fiat on the sides, with long
snout very rough in their hair. in
make more like fish called a perch
than anything can describe. You
may as well think of stopping q crow
as those hogs. They will go a distance
from a fence, take a run, and leap
through the rails, three or four feet
from the ground turning themselves
sidewise. These hogs suffer such hard
ship as no other animal could endure
1t is customary to keep them in the
woods all winter. as there is no thresh-
ing or fold yards; and they must live
on the roots of trees, or something of
that sort, but they are poor beyond
any creature that / ever saw. That Is
probably the cause why American pork
is so fine. They are something like
forest sheep. ! am not certain, with
American keeping and treatment. IL
they be not the best; for l never saw
an animal live without food. except
this; and am pretty sure they nearly
do that. When they are fed, the flesh
may be sweet; 1t is all young, though
the pig be ten years old"
