the police say that this time there
is every chance that things will go
extremely hard for him.
With O'Marron the police Thurs
day afternoon took % gallons OF
moonshine whisky and the largest
still that has ever been located in
this community. They also de-
stroyed seven large barrels OF
mash. The still is made in the
form of a wash boiler and has a
capacity of so gallons. 1t is of
copper, and with the dome for
steam space, pipes and all, stands
as high as a tall man. Double cop
per coils were also taken with the
outfit. A fve-gallon keg and nine
jugs ranging from f1ve-gallons to
one-half gallon in size contained
the finished liquor.
The still was in full operation

accomplished by means of pipe

The outfit was dangerous and the
police destroyed it.
The distilling operations were
carried on in the upstairs rooms OF
the house, which were filthy with
slime from the barrels Of ferment-
ing grain. The basement was in
even a worse state. three feet OF

service. We have answered the sum-
mons, and almost from the moment
that the call came, Red Cross relief
was on its way.
In the present condition of the world
no one is wise enough to foresee the
future nor to picture the possibilities
that may develop. Because Of this,
the Red Cross must be kept in a po-
sition Of constant readiness. That can
only be done by means Of a large, con-
slant and devoted membership. 1t is
upon that foundation that the present
usefulness and the future existence of
the American Red Cross rests.
The challenge Of the Roll Call is:
Increase your Membership to the
largest possible number" Every man,
woman and child in America should
be proud to be enrolled under the ban
ner of the Red Cross and to have part
in its achievement. This is not the
last call that will come to us for sud-
den and unexpected service. We must
be ready for whatever comes.

A RISING YOUNG MAN

Aberdeen Journal-The Dell Rapids
Tribune says some things about Ralph
Horton of the Volga Tribune that the
Journal has often had in mind to say,
so this paper is glad to pass the good
words on to it's readers, because the
Journal editor knew Ralph's father for
eighteen years, and is glad to see that

Ralph Horton, the young man who is
publishing the Volga Tribune, is going

We smelled Him in he fragrant
breeze that blew from blossoming

trees that bend our homesteads over.
And now, when come the shorter days
of bracing autumn weather, we join
once more about the hearth and offer
thanks together. Our barns are tight

beasts are warm; our household

CHIR0PRACTORS RESIGN FROM
STATE HEALTH BOARD

AS a result of strained relations
which have been existing for some
years between the State Board of
Health and the chiropractors of the
State, which was aggravated last
January when the State Board of
Health refused to admit representa-
tives of the chiropractors to the
Health Exposition, and which after
wards eliminated in a stiff struggle
between the two forces in the Gen
eral Assembly, Drs. E. M. King and
w. H. Dunn, prominent chiroprac-
tors, have resigned from member
ship in the Board of Assistant Chi
ropractic Examiners.
In the communication containing
their designations, which was adj
dressed to the State Board of Health,
they allege that no chiropractor
should be compelled to go before the
Board of Medical Examiners to prove
his qualifications to practice chirO-
practic; that it would be a farce to
do so as the medical fraternity are
avowed enemies of the chirOpracti(
and chiropractors and that the
State has no right to discriminate
between the two systems.

POULTRY, EGGS AND BUTTER
MARKETS

Production of butter is showing
a gradual increase, but as the de-
mand has been unusually good,
markets have advanced further.
The rains we have had should make
better pastures, so that from now
on production will increase rapidly,
and the tendency of the market will
be to work to lower level.
The surplus of eggs in the large
markets this past week has been ex
tremely heavy, and for that reason
the amount going into storage has
increased materially, causing the
market to work to a lower basis
Storers, as a rule, expect to buy May
eggs cheaper than April's, and the
immediate prospects are that price;
| will show further decline.
Live poultry has been moving In
normal quantities for this time Of
the year, but the demand for dressed
stock is improving and the tendency
of the market is higher.

That Southern potato growers
