VALERA'S WHEREABOUTS
MYSTERY IN IRELAND
Sinn Feiners and Officials
Deny Knowledge of Him.

DUBLIN, Jan. /. The American

Friday from New York and which was
Immediately searched by the military
was still under a strong guard Of armed
soldiers to-day. The crew of the vessel
remained aboard. but admission to the
ship was refused to all other persons.
The cargo of the Pontia is being over

used for gun running.
Leading Sim Feiners and Govern

the arrival here of Eamonn de Valera
They assert that he did not arrive on
board the Pontia, and telephone inquiry
at several Irish ports failed to reveal
that the President OF the Irish Re-
public" has made his entry into Ireland.
1t Is stated that there would be no
need to arrest De Valera on the old
charge against him. that of having
escaped from jail. as he could be taken
into custody under the restoration Of

the detention of Arthur Griffith, founder

Government to ascertain the RESPONSE

Republican funds on ambuscades and

desire might include De Valera as the

There would be no difficulty in De

presence and await arrest.

FAILURE OF SWINE TO MATE
IL May Be Caused by improper Func-
tioning Of System Brought About
by improper Feed.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
Failure In the ability or desire Of
swine to reproduce may be caused by
any of several conditions, say special
lists of the United States Department
of Agriculture. Ii may result from a
disease or injury that seriously aft
fects or destroys the secretory repro
ductive organs. 1t may be caused by
improper functioning of the system,
which In turn is often brought about
by unsuitable feed or faulty eiimina-
ton of waste products, or it may be
due to a general lowering of body vi
tally.
There are also cases of sterility or
impotence for which definite causes
are difficult to find. Failure to breed
quite frequently occurs in boars and
sOws which have been fitted and kept
in high condition for snow purposes.
In some instances the sow fails to
come in heat, or perhaps indicates
that she is in heat and IS successfully
served by the boar without resulting
conception. In other cdses the boar
shows no desire to mats, or acts In
effectively.
The first step In overcoming the
trouble Is TO find q positive cause,
when possible, by making a thorough
examination. This should include a
search for physical defects, the pres
ence of disease, the results Of injuries,
or lowered vitality from any cause.
When. from such examination, 1t
appears that proner treatment will
prove successful, remedies should be
administered promptly. But if the
cause is obscure, or if there is little
likelihood of correcting the defect sue
cessfully, it is best to remove the AMI.
NAL from the breeding herd. Bears
may be castrated and fitted for
slaughter as market hogs. Similarly.
sows should be discarded when they
become uncertain breeders.
When there is no apparent cause
for failure of swine to mate, experts
of the United States Department Of
Agriculture frequently have observed
lazy or sluggish temperament
These hogs generally are of the type
known as 'hot-bloods." They are fat
and show an unwillingness to exer-
else. The tendency is more common
In mature hogs and increases with
age, but is frequently found in young
stock. Careless and unwise inbreed-
ing practices tend to produce hogs Of
this type, but inbreeding does not nee
essacily bring about the condition.

seen in only an occasional animal 1t

Swamp-Root has stood the test of years.
1t is sold by all druggists on its merit

Prepared by the United States Depart.

Desirable quality in the flesh of
poultry intended for table use depends
on the flavor Of the flesh; on the tex
ture; on the amount of flesh In pro
portion TO the weight of the bird and
on the distribution of both the flesh
and the larger masses of fat over the
carcass. Other things being equal, the
flesh of the females usually is milder
than that of the males. say nome
economic specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
CaponiZing makes the flavor of cocks
more delicate, tends to produce finer
and less tough muscle fbers, and in
credses the size of the masses of meat,
especially in the breast.
Effects of Age on Flavor.
Age tends to Increase flavor. at first
advantageously, but later usually, dis
advantageously. Most very young
birds have flavor toe mild to be sat
isfactory for stewing OF fricassee. but
make splendid eating as broiers or
flyers. The delicacy of flavor usual
" is hist in decidedly old birds. AS
the bhd grows older, the proportion
of flesh to bone usually increases. at
least up TO the period of full matur-
ity. Often the barge masses of flesh
found on such birds can be utilized
more satisfactorily than the smaller
ones found on young and scrawny
chickens.
Exercise affects the flavor and tex
ture of poultry flesh, as in any kind
of meat. 1t toughens the fbers anu
the connective tissues. and lessons the
amount of fat. 1t may also affect the
distribution of flesh on the carcass in
cUeasing the naturally strong, tough
muscles rather than the less-used. ten
der ones. In some. birds, notably
chickens, the exercise can be con-
rolled. Almost any poultry, however,
can safely be penned for few days
before killing.
The difference between the flesh of
a plump chicken and of lean one

TO PREVENT POTATO LOSSES
Serious Damage Results From Careless
Handling at Harvest Time
Avoid Breaking Skin

Growers and shippers are response
BILE for much of the loss that results
from shipping diseased potatoes, since
a large part of such losses can be con-
trolled, if not entirely prevented, in
the field. according to specialists of
the bureau of markets Of the United
States Department of Agriculture
Serious damage results from careless
handling when the potatoes are har-
vested. Too many persons, it is said,
handle potatoes as though they were
so many cobblestones, rather than
perishable product. Even the breaking
of the protective skin frequently
proves serious. Such injury not only
damages the appearance and neces-
states deep pairing of the tuber. but
affords ready entrance TO infection.
Loss Of this sort lies in every growers
and shippers power to control, it is
pointed out.
