JUST BURROWS OF ANIMALS
Mystery of What Was Known as the
Devils Corkscrew' Has Been
Considered Solved

OF the many fossils which have
Of the West, few have excited wider
interest than the devils corkscrew,"
found in rocks of the MiOcene period,
in northwestern Nebraska. They are
usually white. and stand out clearly
against the bluff background of the
rock which incloses them, often at
tanning a length of Is feet, with many
twists and turns, ending at times in
a large bulb, with occasional side
passages When first discovered 1t
was thought that these gigantic cork
screws were huge petrified vines or
roots Of some strange plant. Study of
the "corkscrews," however, failed to
reveal any traces of plant structure
Later the skeleton of an animal like
the badger was found in large bulb
near the end of the "corkscrew, and
bones of small camel and small deer
were found In others. After that 1t
was discovered that many of them
contained bones of q small burrowing
animal about the size of the western
prairie dog. Excavation of actual re-
cent prairie dog burrows, after filling
them with thin plaster OF paris,
showed an interesting fact; the bur-
rows of the prairie dog and the pre-
historic "corkscrews" were closely
similar. The mystery is considered
solved

LARGE APPLE CROP
Idaho Potato Yield Also Heavy
Says Report.

Boise, Idaho. ALL previous
records for apple crops are broken
by this years estimated yield ol
more than four million bushels,
according to the monthly report ol
Julius H. Jacobson, agricultural
statlstician of the Idaho crop re-
porting service, issued Nov. 9.
Last month it was estimated
that the carlot movement of apples
would be 400 cars but this figure
has jumped GOO cars since the first
of October and the total is now
placed at 400 cars with posi-.
blllty of 5000 for the season.
The crop of 1919, which was
four million bushels, is the prev
ious large crop against which the
1921 crop is running race. The
exact yield for this years crop,
which is 95 per cent of normal, is
4, o85, 900 bushels.
Idaho's potato crop will also
break all previous records with a
yield of nearly ten million bushels,
frosts were not as
damaging as first reported as
yield of 185 bushels to the acre is
now indicated for the So, 900 acres
planted.
Mr.. Jacobson estimates that
about half of the potatoes have
been shipped, or about 5000 or
5000 cars, while the rest is in

W e. McNaughton OF the district

solute TO the British, French and
American flags and singing parts Of
tho anthems of the three nations, and
,bo recitation of "Flanders Fields
BY Clebern Clumpner.
Judpe McNaughton's speech was
what he called his first sermon. His
subject was the religion of American
ism in which he said all Americans
believed irrespective of creed. The
snecker quoted the Declaration OF
Independence and stressed the fact
that in this country all men are
politically equal and have certain
'lnalienable rights"-rights which
cannot legally be taken from them
under the constitution. Every citizen
of our country, he said, has the same
rights before the law. Referring to
the concentration of wealth, he said
that for more than hundred years
our nation, at first weak and poor,
stroye to build up wealth and power.
ln the process abuses crept In. When |
1t became evident that the drifting of !
wealth into the hands of a few |
constituted a grave national peril, /
the government began to take steps
about twenty years ago to correct the
situation. So 1t is with other prob
lens; as they arise citizens must be
vglant and cope with them to the
and that the nation may be Kept
strong and enduring. To be an
American, be said, is a proud
heritage, and he declared that when
wills appear 10 the government
,ltlzens must not blame the consttu-
loo but must look for the cause In
heir own negligence aud Indifference
0 political matters.
Judge McNaughton said American
morale won the war for the allies.

BEER STILL TABOO
Recent Federal Ruling Does Not
Apply In Idaho.

| Boise, Idaho. Beer and light
wines cannot be sold in Idaho, Il e
recent ruling by the United States
treasury department permitting
such sale Notwithstanding, said
Roy L. Black, attorney general,
Nov. 9, when interviewed by
reporter for The Statesman on how
the order would affect the state.
The treasury department
permits beer and light wines to be
sold for medicinal purposes. on
prescription, tc the extent of two
and one-half gallons of beer, or two
quarts of wine, on each prescrip-
ton.
"The only states which can be
affected by the treasury depart
ment's order" said Mr.. Black,
care those which had no prohibit
ton laws before the enactment of
the Volstead bill and have not
since passed any. The federal law
would also affect states where the
state law was not as drastic as that
imposed by congress.
"Idaho's prohibition laws are
constitutional, and the amendment
forever prohibiting the manufact-
ure, sale, keeping for sale and
transportation for sale of intoxicat-
ing liquors for beverage purposes
was voted by the people in the fall
of 1916, and went into effect May
I, 1917: The 1915 Legislature, an
the action of the people
at the 1916 fall election, passed a
set of prohibition laws which were
added to during the 1917 session.
"The state constitutional
says nothing about
possession, but the legislature
covered this point thoroughly
when it enacted section 26o6 of
the Compiled Statutes, which
makes it unlawful for anyone to
have in his possession intoxicating
liquor or alcohol without permit.

DEMOCRATS TO MEET
IN OCTOBER TO NAME
NAT. COMMITTEEMAN
Not Possible to Name Second
Woman as Representative
Owing to Party Rules.
GOOD MEETING AT GLASGOW

Friends of Mrs. Henry Ridgely OF
Dover and Mrs. Marshall Derby OF
Woodside, were greatly disappointed
today when they learned that efforts
made TO have either of the two Della
ware women selected as national COM
nitteewoman could not come about.
according 10 the rules of the Demo-
cratic party, at this time.
Friends Of both women, who are
prominent in their respective COM
munit>es and also in many state wide
affairs. had suggested that because of
the difficulty among the men in Sc
lecting a national committeeman, that
perhaps a woman might be found who
would be able to fill the position ae-
ceptably
If this would be possible there
would not be the slightest objection
from the men, but according to
Democratic regulations it cannot be
done.
When suffrage was granted the
women, the Democratic National Com
uittee arranged practically at once,
to have each state represented by a
woman as well as man. But it was
not a question Of two delegates or
committee representatives from each
state, but-a man and a woman.
Delaware is now represented by a
comrnitteewoman in Miss Lena
Evans. Miss Evans attended the
meeting of the State committee at
Rehoboth two weeks ago and par
ticipated in the business brought be-
fore IL Unless she resigns. there is

lect a committeeman.
