HALLOWEEN DAMAGE.

The small boy-and some older
ones participated in the usual Hal
lowe'en pranks, Sunday and Monday
night, making a a-two-day celebration
of the annual ghost festival.'' In
most instances, it was only case of
playing some harmless prank on un-
suspecting residents, who failed to
anticipate the unannounced visit of
the perpetrators, but Mr.. and Mrs.
August Muske, residing ,on North
State street, have every reason to re-
member Hallowe'eno of 1921, in view of
the fact that some husky miscreants
caused them considerable damage.
The two massive stone flower vases
on the Muske lawn were handled
rather roughly by the unwelcome visit
ors, who dismantled. the vases and
threw one of the heavy bases down the
steep embankment onto the side
walk, breaking a few squares Of the
latter and cracking the base. The
lawn was also damaged. The first
visit was at about $50 o'clock Sunday
evening, when the upper part of the
vases were thrown down, while the
base was rolled down the embankment
at about 1870 o'clock Monday morn
ing. At the latter hour, Mrs. Muske
was awakened, but is not positive as
to the identity. Of the perpetrators.
The matter was reported to Chief of
Police Alvin Harmening Monday, and
an endeavor is being made to ascertain
who the guilty parties are.

VIGILANCE COMMITTEE.

Farmers in the vicinity Of Norseland,
Nicollet County have banded them
selves together in an endeavor to stop
the depredations of chicken thieves,
and have decided to offer reward for
the capture of these night prowlers.
According to A. L. Annexstad, one of
Nicollet county's most extensive poul-
try fanciers, considerable alarm has
been felt by the farmers in his neigh
borhood since chicken thieves resumed
their pernicious activities recently. A
council of war was subsequently held
and the farmers decided in favor OF
arming themselves. They have made
arrangements to be summoned quickly
by telephone and promise hot time
for the culprits if any more trouble
arises. 1t is reported that clue has
been unearthed in connection with re
cent depredations and that arrests
may follow. For the time being, M
raids have been reported and the Morse
land farmers hope that their defensive
measures may serve to end the trouble

Adelaide, Jan. 10th. Australia won
the third test match by 119 runs from
the English team. The Australians
have now captured three out OF five test

only seemed a match fer the Australian

London, Jan Goth. Lord RiddelI ad-
dressing the Postmaster General on be-
half OF a deputalion of the newspaper
interests regarding their facilities of
world co nmunication, said that while
the press declined to take any aubsidies
from the Government for a news service
in any circumstances, they asked that
the postal department provide a cheap
and efficient service. Lord Riddell said
the papers were constantly reproached
by Dominion residents in Great Britain
because they did not carry more Cana
dian or Australian news. In reply the
Postmaster-G General said that financial
considerations operated in other spheres
than the newspaper world The depart
mant was seeing what arrangement
could be made by having stations here
which would receive communications
from wireless naval stations in Ameri-
ca. AS for the service with the Do.
minions where private companies would
not operate it would have to be carried
on by the government.
London, Jan. 18th. Alleged Sim Fem

Hanwell, we're raided, and a number of
important documents were seized. Lo-
cal Importance is attached to a raid on a
four story house in CClvilIe Terrace,

London, Jan. 2Oth.-Discussing the
appointment of Mr.. Churchill as Colonial

he has made mistakes, the dominion
would sooner have ? man Of impetuOsity
and energy at the Colonial Office, than
the tpye OF politician who cannot men
ton the empire with lapsing into prosy
platitudes. The Times however sug-
gests that Mr.. Churchill should have far
more recent knowledge of the Dominions
than he now possesses, and says a flying
visit to the Dominions, preferably before
the Dominion Premiers meet here in
June, wouid be of value to him. The
Times adds that if at the June meet
ing the Dominion Premiers show a de-
cided preference for having the formal
charge OF the affairs of their country in
London taken from the Colonial Office,

If the rural delivery is at your door,
the city market Is there for your small
produce, say specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture At
present many producers are neglect
ing entirely this marketing medium or
are not utilizing it to the extent they
might. Wider use of the parcel post
for marketing eggs is particularly adj
visable for the small producer who
can easily and advantageously build
up direct trade with the city. When
more produce is marketed directly
from the farm to the city there will
be less complaint on the part of the
producer that the prices he must sell
for are too low, and less OH the part
OF the consumer that the prices he
pays are too high.
Sell Only First-ciass Eggs.
1t is preferable to produce infertile
eggs for market, as fertile eggs de-
teriorate rapidly in warm weather and
are the cause Of much loss. The eggs
should he gathered at least once day
and stored in well-yentilated place,
where they can be kept as cool as pos
sible. AS washing removes the muci-
hginous coating Of eggs and opens the
pores Of the shell, it should not be
practiced in the case Of eggs intended
for high-class trade. Soiled eggs
should be used at home or disposed of
otherwise than to a parcel-post Gus
toner
II there is any doubt concerning the
freshness or quality of the eggs, they
should be candled, SO that all eggs
showing any defect may be held at
home, say poultry specialists of the
United States Department of Agricul-
tnre. For parcel-post shipment it is
essential that uniform containers and
uniform pack should be used, as 9th
erwise the packages viii not wear
well, nor will they look attractive and
appeal to the fancy trade. Further
more, the containers should be stout
and durable so as to make It worth
while to return them as "empfies" for
subsequent use
According to post office regulations
eggs will be accepted for local deliy-
