Furs Are Nabbed

Parker, Dec. 2O.--Twelve boxes
loaded with furs and hides shipped
from points west of the Missouri riv-
er were intercepted at Hooker last

cured and it is held by expert fur

es 1t has been learned were shipped
on December 2, the day after the
South Dakota fur season opened.
Thus it is declared these furs must
have been taken before December J.,
or before the opening date and as a
result will be sold by the game de-

Makes Charcoal
For Feeding Hogs

washington Springs. Dec. 20
John Aistrup, farmer, has become an
expert in the manufacture of char
coal for feeding to hogs. He first
places a layer of corn cobs about a
foot thick on the ground. Over this
he places a layer of whole corn
which he covers with salt. This ro-
tation is repeated several times and
finally the mass is covered with
whole oats. With the aid of little
kerosene poured on the bottom 1t is
ignited and allowed to burn as long
as it will. This produces an excel
lent charcoal, the feeding OF which
is said to keep hogs in perfect con-
dition.

Comment here and abroad on the Irish Free State continues generally favorable. Among those outspoken in favor of the treaty is Harry Be- land envoy of the Irish Republic to the United States. whose comment will be found in another column. The active opposition in this country keems to be confined to Judge Daniel F. Cohalan and his followers in the Friends of Irish Freedom. MT. Co., Aalan has been critical of most moves made by President De Valera since his break with the latter. Many ar movement are cautious in their com 3nent, preferring to wait until the treaty has been ratified by both the parliaInents of England and Ireland.
