Iowa Farmer Says Hogs
Are Shipped Rapidly

"As fast as hogs in my section Of
the country are in shape for the
market, they are being sent to the
live stock centers,' said William
Gittins, live stock man of Griswold,
la.
Mr.. Gittins says there are quite a
number Of cattle and hogs in his
neighborhood on feed and that they
are doing remarkably we'll. He says
the only cattle shipped this season
from his section were those fed on
old corn last summer, while most OF
those put on feed this fall were still
in the lots.
Even with corn at present prices,
farmers out my way are keeping a
stiff upper lip and manage to make
little profit by feeding their corn
to their hogs said Mr.. Gittins.
Corn is listed at 81 cents bushel,
but the farmers are not letting much
of it 60 at that price"

By The Associated Press.

San Francisco, Cal. Dec. 4.-Thc
jury which tried Roscoe Arbuckle
on a charge OF manslaughter was
discharged today as unable to agree,
after it had delibcratcd Al hours.
August Fritzc. foreman OF the
jury, issued signed statement to-
night saying that one of the wom-
en- jurors who was in he minority,
refused to consider the evidence
from the beginning and declared
that "she would cast her ballot and
would not change It until hell frozc

The jury was brought into court
at its own request at noon, report
ed a disagreement and asked that
it be discharged. The case was set
for retral January 9. .t ...
Court officers said. however, that
the balloting favored acquittal
throughout The foreman said the
final ballot stood 10 to 3 -
In a statement following the jury's
return, Arbucklc declared one Of the
five women jurors prevented his ac-
quittal, because she. refused to al
low her fellow jurors to discuss the.
evidence or reason with her and
would not give any reason for her
attitude" He did not name the juror

Arbuckle had been given "a fair and
honest trial. and complimented the
jurors who held out for conviction
as having Courage and determine

jury reported.

II had hoped the jury would reach

by wealth, power and influence.
The court has set January 9 as

The members of the jury looked
haggard and worn when they fled
into the little court room. over
which deep hush had settled, and
took their seats. The foreman, Au-

Lincoln, Dec. 4.-(Spec;al Telc.

Lena, ate the cakes she baked. the

he struck the flaming horseshoe
fresh from the forge and wondered
ii Lena had the receipt for the beer

Thomasson couldn't write German,
love found the way, as it always
does, and Thomasson found friend,
who could and would write in Ger

And Lena, over in Muhrnbach,
found some one who could write
English and did write to Johnnie as

marry YOU

Finst. organisation Of ths $1,000,
900 corporation, through which
funds Of the war finance corpora
ton are to be loaned to Nebraska
farmers and stock raisers, will be
made at meeting at the Hotel
Fontenelle in Omaha at 10 Tues
day morning. ,..
Conflicting information as to the
date of the meeting, was settled by
positive announcement of Secretary
John Flanagan Of the local commit
tee that Tuesday is the day.
Will Elect Officers.
At this time, subscriptions to the
capital stock of the corporation will
be received and stockholders will
elect directors and other officers.
Under. the law, the corporation can
endorse agricultural notes, for re-
discount by the war finance cor
poration to an. amount equal to 1C
times its capital. Formation OF the
corporation is ! expected to permit
speedy relief for farmers, and stock
raisers whose local banks are not
in a position to act for them in pre-
senting paper to the war finance
corporation.
Even when funds Of the war
finance corporation are used to re-
discount farmers notes already held
by Nebraska banks. instead of for
the making of new loans, the farmer
borrower benefits as well as the
bank, representatives of the corpor-
alton point out
Want Credit Used.
"Thc war finance corporation is
anxious that bankers and trust COM
panies make Use Of its credits to ex.
tend new loans to farmers and stock
raisers. in order to enable them to
hold corn for more advantageous
marketing and to fatten cattle and
hogs" said, n. B. Updike,I member
OF the corn belt advisory commit
tee. But it should not be consid-
cred that that is its only function
or that that alone is the only way
in which it relieves the situation.
There are banks in Nebraska which
are under the necessity OF calling
loans already made to- farmers and
up for renewal. If these banks re-
discount these loans with the war
finance corporation, they are not
called and the effect is the same as
il new loans were made"
In its report to western govern
ors at the recent conference in Chi
cago, the war finance corporation
called the attention Of bankers to the
fact that they can rediscount ap-
proved notes of responsible farmers
with it and further declared them
to be under obligations TO serve
worthy and responsible farmers who
are in need of money.
