E. w. Gilbertson tells The World
that the Duroc Jersey pigs which he
recently advertised for sale in this
paper, were sold several weeks ago,
and he won't have any more to sell
until some time next spring. Hardly
a day passes but what he receives in
quiries from some prospective purch-
aser, and he is getting kind of tired
answering them. He told us to an
nounce that there wouldn't be any
more to sell until next spring, and
that he would give due notice by hav-
ing an ad inserted in this paper again.

of the Deming Headlight. Mr.. Miller
has tried out a number of locations
in the northwest since leaving Mimi

Devils Lake a few weeks ago that
there was something the matter with
all of them. It is hoped that he has
found something now that is entirely
to his liking, and that he makes bar

Albert, Duke of York, Irregular Guy

His royal highness Prince Albert,
duke Of York, second son of the king
of England, is what Americans of his
own age would call an all-round sport.
They might even call him an ..all-
round guy" He Is twenty-siy years
old and holds the rank of commander
in the British navy and captain in
the royal air force.
When he was fourteen he went to
the school at Osborne. Two years
later he entered the Royal Naval col
lege at Dartmouth. Like other cadets,
he was appointed to the training ship

the same grub and was subject to the

as a major in the World war, studying
gas warfare at the British front and
serving In charge of the gas and flame
branch Of the trench warfare section
Of the United States army.
"The purpose Of gas In warfare Is
to produce as much agony and torture
as possible, In order that the victim
may be at least incapacitated il not act
ually killed." Major Mathews is quoted
as saying to the American Legion
news service. "And IL is inconceivabls
that state should desire to use gases
which produce such effects. The pur-
pose OF capital punishment is to re.
move the victim quietly and effective
ly, in order that society henccf0rth
may be protected and to serve as Il
warning to other potential evildocrs.
1T Is to be hoped that civilization
has reached point where revenge Is
no longer a motive. Only savages tor
ture their victims before killing them !;
the use Of any Of the war gases TO re-
move criminals would be quite In line
with the practice Of savages."
Professor Mathews said there were
gases which might be used for eXecu-
tIons, II the use Of gas ut all could
ever be deemed wise. Carbon dIoXide.
the poisonous constituent Of ordinary
Illuminating gas. he declared would
he the logical one to use. He asserted
however. that If the administration Of
gas for execution Of criminals were
carried out, it should be entirely in
the hands of medically trained men
who understand both Its use and at.
tendant dangers.
'"The horrors OF poorly carried out
electrocmtions are sufficiently vivid I'm
the minds of thinking people to make
them abhor any method OF execution
which may not be both humane and
effective" he declared.
