The Skunk.

The skunk has long hair, a very
bushy tail, patch of white on the
back, also white on the forehead. In
many localities this animal is known
as a pole-cat, in others he is called
skunk, or Chicken thief"
During severe winter weather the
skunk hibernates in burrows near
the frost line. 1t is not uncommon
to find 10 or II skunks sleeping in
the same habitation. At first APP
preach of spring, he comes forth and
begins search for feed, which consists
of mice, rabbits, birds and chickens.
When the ground thaws he digs holes
in the sides of the hills or about the
roots of trees; in search of insect
grasshoppers, beetles, in fact any in
sect.
The skunk does not emit odor I'M
less he is attacked. Dogs will seldom
engage in a fight with an adult
skunk, especially if they have had
one encounter. The skunk has two
cousins, the mink and the weasel,
which are much more active and
blOod-thirsty. In times of danger
the skunk will stand still or take his
time to get away
Skunks are really benefactors
rather than pests. Their destruc-
ton Of mice and all kinds of insect
life considerably overbalances the
harm they might do by destruction of
poultry or birds. Their fur is
great asset; quite frequently we find
men raising these might cats" for the
fur they produce.-Edgar S. Jones.

The New York Produce exchange
went on record recently as favoring
retention of the prices and regula-
tions controlling in the 1918 wheat
harvest and a discontinuance of the
policy of government price-fxing as
applied to hogs. coarse grain and 9TH
er foodstuffs. The exchange directed
its board of managers to appeal di-
rectly to the President to lift the
wartime restrictions upon hogs and
the grains.
There has been a drop of as much
as l 5 cents pound in wholesale price
of butter within two weeks, with a
rally yesterday, creameries selling As

sharply, the best lots selling at 60 to
81 cents dozen. Owners of dairy
products in cold storage warehouses

fall but had no room to put one, as
all the empty places were about filled
up with tools that he had bought TO
shift along with till he could afford
TO buy new ones, as the new ones cost
too much money, and the paint came

Getting Rid OF Colds.

The easiest and quickest way to get
rid of cold is to take Chamberlain S
Cough Remedy. This preparation
has been in use for many years and
its value fully proven. No matter
what remedy you use, however, care
must be taken not to contract a sec
ond cold before you have recovered
from the first one, and there is seri-
Gus danger of this. A man of middle
age or older should go to bed and
stay in bed until fully recovered. 1t
is better to stay in bed three days
at the start than three weeks later

WOUNDED FELL DEAD
Senate Starts Probe On Treatment
OF American Soldiers.

Washington, Feb. T.. Investigation
by the Senate Military Committee of
American rest and embarkation
camps in France was urged in the
Senate to-day by Senator Lodge and
other Republicans, who submitted
kilograms and newspaper articles
reciting alleged mistreatment OF
wounded and other soldiers.
A telegram presented by Senator
Lodge from John j. Bush, OF the
Michigan Society of New York, stated
that wounded soldiers arriving at
New York declared that soldiers at
Camp Afghan made serious charges

Apply the stable manure to the

Clean out the briers and bushes
from every roadside, fence, and ditch

Remember that the garden is not

necessity of speeding up production,
il is simply foolish to waste the labor
of one man by using two-half-row
cultivators where one would serve.
1t is a noticeable fact that very few
home orchards have been pruned up
to this time. No time should be lost
in getting at this, or it is likely to be
neglected in the rush of spring work.
When fruit trees are planted, the
labels, held in place by a wire, should
be removed. The only safe way to
keep track of varities is to make and
file away plan of the orchard which
will show what kind of trees are set
in each place.
If you need bigger garden, move
the fence and make the enlargement
now. Don't wait for spring. And in
this connection, remember that long
rows, even if you have to make the
garden narrow, will mean easier cul-
tivation, because horse implements
can be employed. Make the gate
large enough to admit a wagon for
manure.
Keep the pillow going on land that
must be broken. The teams will
stand the hard work much better

hot spring days come. Then, too.

trivial infractions of military regula-
lions.
Senator Lewis, OF Illinois, Demo-
crat, asked that copy of the tele-
gram be sent to Secretary Baker,
who, he declared. was ready and anx-
ious to investigate all such charges.
Senator Lodge replied that he would
be delighted with that course, but
felt the Military Committee should
act, because, he asserted, past ex-
perience has demonstrated that re-
ports to Secretary Baker of such in
cidents have been wholly useless"

been blocked by Democratic opposi-
ton, and that although reported to
Secretary Baker no results had come

Children Cry
FOR FlETChER'S
9 a STO RIA
A GOOD ROAD IN OHIO COUNTY

|
No, the above is not a fact, but in
deed. possibility. What would you
think of a really good road all the
way from your home to your school
your church, and your principal place
of business? All such roads can be
made good, none need to be sighted
1t was partly because men of ad.
vanced years and considerable ex-
/ perience testified before the Fiscal
/ Court that in all their lives they had
never been able to travel fifteen miles
/ in any direction from their homes in
/ Ohio County all the way over a good
road, that it was thought proper and
in fact, necessary to call an election
to vote upon the question of twenty
cent road tax. These men were good
, citizens of Ohio county, and were
testifying out of their own experience.
The question of good roads in Ohio
County is not altogether a question of
men to manage the roads, but large
ly question of money to pay for
them. Surely. in more than one hun
dred years of the existence of the
would have been produced who could
make and keep up some good roads
in the county, if such could be done
by men alone.
But the experience of these more
than one hundred years has taught
that it is not a matter of men but
of system, and good system takes
money. If the money is put up there
will be good men found to spend it
wisely and well. Such men there are
in the county, and plenty and they
will be given the opportunity. A
good system properly financed is
bound to get good results.
A good road is an investment that
pays high interest. The price of ev-
cry piece of land in The county de-
ponds largely upon the roads. Ev-
cry community where there are go ~
roads receives generous share Of
profits from persons passing through
and at the same time such communi-
ties have an outlet for their own
use and benefit. With the right OF
way cleaned Off, with the hills grad
ed, with the roads widened, crowned
up and kept well dragged and drain
fixed and kept in good state of re-
pair, verify, Ohio County would be a
better place to live in.
Vote the road tax. Do your own
duty toward the roads in your com
and all these things and more,
can be done.
