County farmers entered into the con-
test last year out of which two fin
ished. Frank Holstein Of Tracy, was
successful in producing over ton Of
pork on litter from one SOW. in 180
days from date of birth and received
very fine medal and $1,000 in prize
money, besides the club trips and
prizes won. He is watching closely
for litter to enter to break his own
record now.
Anyone having a sow farrow with
ten pigs or more should notify the
County Agent at once so that they
may be ear marked before they are
three days old and positively not
later than seven days. Entry blanks
and complete rules of the contest will
be mailed to anyone on request. There
are no strings on the contestant in
any way except that the pigs must
be ear marked and entered as stated
and weighed on the 190th day.
Boys or girls from 10 to 20 inclus-
i've may enter the contest and also
compete in the regular club projects
at the County Fair. The question
is. ''Who will raise the heaviest lit
ter in Redwood County this year?'
In some counties the business men
or bankers associations offer special
inducement in the ton litter contest,
because they know that the quicker
hog can be ready for the market and
sold, the more money they usually
make for their owners. There is less
risk from diseases, because of less
time on the farm; they will make fast
ar gains because healthy hog
makes faster gains which invariably

water backed up in the cellars
through the drains therein. On Lake
avenue, one of the highest sections
in Milford, water found it's way into
many of the cellars.
At the Pennsylvania Railroad sta
ton water washed across the tracks
and over Causey avenue, badly dam
aging the roadbed of the street. The
stock rooms in the Chronicle plant
were flooded to a depth of eighteen
inches, for the first time since the
building was erected in 1906. A gang
of men were kept busy all Thursday
afternoon moving stock, backing off
the water and pumping out the flood.
This was continued until late in the
evening before the water was dis
posed of.
Fortunately for Milford the wind
shifted late Thursday afternoon and
much of the water was carried off
before the water rushing down from
the upper lakes reached the town.
AS it was the section west of Walnut
street bridge was flooded, but not so
badly as it would have been had thS
wind remained northeast. Oldest
citizens in Milford bear out Mr..
Holzmueller in his statement that
last weeks cloudburst was the worse
within the memory of any living res
ident of Milford. While the storm
was heavy throughout the state, it
seemed to centre about Milford and
it was here that the heaviest rain

To cite the careless factor in the

permit the manufacture and sale OF
light wines and beer.
The facts show that this Episco-
pal Temperance Society is in no way
officially connected with the Protes-
tant Episcopal Church of America,
and that Rev. Empringham, as its
official head, has not the slightest
authority to speak for the million
and quarter EpiscOpalians of Amer
lea.
Bishop William T. Manning of New
York, in his sermon on Sunday, Feb
ruary Z, 1926, said: This society
has no official authorization and no
right whatever to speak in the name
of the Episcopal Church. 1t is vol
untary association and its state
ments have only sucn weight as may
attach to those Of any voluntary or
ganizdtion. They are not to be taken
as representing The mind of the Epis-
copal Church. For some years past
the church has scarcely been aware
of the eXistance of this society and
it has not been regarded as having
weight and influence in the church"
Not only does the Protestant Epis-
copal Church repudiate Mr.. En-
pringhams society and denounce its
declaration in favor of modifying
the Volstead law. but through its
House of Bishops at the General
Convention in New Orleans last Oc-
tober it declared its stand on this
matter by the adoption without
dissenting vote of the following res
OlutiOn:
"RESOLVED, That facing the dan
ger of the spirit Of lawlessness in
American life we welcome the re-
newed efforts of the Government of
the United States to enforce strictly
and impartially the prohibition laws,
and we call upon the people
of our church to set good example
of that obedience to law without
which no democracy can endure"
