county is endeavoring to rid herself
of moonshiners. Following raid
recently made in the Cedar Grove
community in which an IS gallon
still with 1900 gallons of beer and
40 gallons of singlings were captured,
Sheriff Alden and posse made a raid
on ten wild cat stills in the east end
Of the county, capturing a complete
outfit. They found another place
where a still had been removed, per
haps the day before, but about 5OC
gallons of beer still remained and the
fire was burning under the tubs. Thi'
was destroyed. This outfit was OF
the farm of Richard Thomas, bu
there was no one about the place.
About 600 yards east Of this plac'
they found on farm belonging t.
one of the Eubanks, another com
plete still ready for operation, bu
no one present. They destroyed pc
twpen 500 and 600 gallons Of bee

CUT FIRE WOOD
FROM ROAD SIDE

A well planned piece OF work can
often be made to "kill two birds
with one stone" No better thought
to be given, while cutting the winter
supply of wood, than to consider the
future of our country roads. Weak
ley county is sure to have an awake
ming in road construction very soon.
One obstacle in the way OF road
building is the fact that number
Of trees are in the way of widening
roads and which prevent wet places
from drying, sutting out both the
suns rays and the air. In cutting
wood, why not consider the future
good Of our roads and cut trees fol
wood from the road side?

WARNING TO FARM
Frs. STOCK DISEASE

The attention Of of thhls Office
has recently been called to a "pecu-
liar" disease appearing among horses
and mules on several farms in the
western part of the state. Upon IN
yestigating these cases we have 1ouna
the trouble to be Forage Poisoning
IN every instance. This is not a
new diesase, having appeared from
time TO time but with greater pre-
valency during some years than
others 1t is commonly spoken OF as
"Blind Staggers." The appearance
of this trouble is invariably associ-
ated with the feeding of mouldy
grain or roughness. On account o.
the unsatisfactory results in treating
this diesase, it becomes very essen
tial TO rely on preventative rather
than curative measures. Conse
ouently we are cautioning farmer
to avoid feeding anything to hor
SEES and mules which has becom
nouldy. The fact that you ha'
mouldy grain or roughness durin'
previous years without bad result
is not satisfactory argument to jus
fy it's continuation. Stop feedin
to horses and mules and thereby sto
losses from Forage Poisoning.

RAD ROADCON /

cDespite the bad condition OF the
public roads, there has been an un-
usual amount of traffic during the
present week-moving, hauling corn

stream of loaded wagons coming IN

No Ioss than dozen wagons were
corr+od on one road at one time
leod;no into Dresden on that day, all
a. them heavily laden.

LIVE STOCK SECTION

Washington, Dec. l6.-When tne
Hereford bull, Point Comfort XIV
won for the south the grand cham
nionship for the breed at the Inter
national Live Stock Exposition OF
1919. many northern people felt that
tha occurrence was a "fluke," which
was not likely to be repeated often'
But the record of the Information
al live Stock Exposition, held at
Chicago Nov. 90 to Dec. 6, demon
strated the possibilities of the south
as livestock producing section IN
remarkable way. Nine grand
championships were won by breeders
south of the Ohio River, as follows
Sborthorn bull and COW, Hertord
bull. Aberdeen-Angus bull, Perche'
ron mare, Duroc Jersey boar, Poland
China sow and Hampshire ram and
eve.
Not all of these animals were aceu
allv bred on southern farms, but the
fact that they were shown from
southern herds is an illustration O
the progressive spirit of the south
ern breeders, and those which wer'
bred and raised on southern farm
show clearly that the south can pro
duee as fine breeding stock as an,
ether section of the country, accord

THE PROHIBITION
ACT IS VALID
Not Abrogated by Signing Of
Armistice, Justice Bran
deis Announces.

Washington, Dec. 15.-War-time
prohibition was held constitutional
today by the Supreme court in an
unanimous decision. Thus vanishing
the hopes of many for a "wet" holi-
day time.
No decision was rendered in the
cases involving the constitutionailty
of the Volstead law, the prohibition
enforcement act, framed to carry out
the intent of the prohibition amend
ment of the constitution.
In passing, however, Associate JUS
| tice Brandeis did hold that the prohi-
b;tion amendment was biding on the
! states as well as the Federal govern
ment.
The court entirely reversed thu
contention of the "wets" that war
time prohibition was outside the war
time powers of congress, and pointe'
out that wartime control Of foo
and railroads still were in effect.
The decision added one of the II
nal milestones to the long fight {
make the country dry.
After giving decisions today, tn
court recessed for the holidays an

tional amendment will become effec

NINETY PER CENT
MINERS AT THE PITS
Restrictions On Use of Coal
Removed and Industry
Approaches Normal.

Chicago, Dec. 15.-Restrictions on
the use of coal made necessary by the
strike of miners in the bituminous
fields were removed today and in
dustries throughout the country ap-
preached a normal basis. Reginol
fuel directors continued to exercise
supervision over distribution how
ever, in order that restoration Of the
depleted reserves may be equitable.
From nearly all of the coal fields
reports come that fully 80 per cent
of the miners were at the pits today
and heads of the United Mine Work.
ers of America predicted 95 per cS&t
of the men would be at the mines by
tonight.
Operators said nothing like a nor
NAL output could be expected for
several days, as 1t was necessary 10
clear away debris, which had accu-
mulated in a large number of proper
ties during the forty days Of the
strike before hosting of coal could
begin.
Shipments of newly mined coal
have been started from few mines,
and were expected to be~in the hands
Of the distributors before the end OF
the day.
Restrictions against supplying lie
coal to foreign ships were relaxed
: today by the railroad administrator
to permit the departure of hundreds
Of foreign vessels which have beer

The buyers for W. A. l5,icpan,
made few purchases dXhg the
week. but not enough 70 couHt a

price will go much higher than pres

they are holding for top prices.
Mr.. EzelI has put no buyers IN tn
