THE STATE’S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Established 18738) ‘ IRELAND NOT YET FREE When the Union Jack was furled recently in Dublin and the green, white and yellow banner of the Irish Free State yas floated on the breezes, men everywhere either voiced |tions, who then confronted the| legislature, begged for < one mill! the taxable property of! pledging they would not! legislature for | relief that the great struggle was over or hailed with beam- ing satisfaction the adoption of the constitution under which Ireland achieved her greatest measure of independence in governmental action. Timothy Healy, a firey Irish patriot of old, was made Governor- General. The new Free State | in the British Empire had been accorded concessions never | made another, British dominion. Hardly: had the change occurred, however, when execu- tions, reprisals and fighting were renewed. Ireland had not yet been freed from a burning hatred. De Valera refused to join many former associates in the battle for Irish inde- pendence, who believed that through the orderly processes of the Free State goverfigient Ireland would steadily pro- gress.. While Timothy Healy expressed hope for early union of all Ireland under one government, others continued to preach their doctrines through guerrila warfare. The new Free State embraces 26 of the 32 counties of freland. Its people are given virtual control of their destiny. However the fires of hatred of Irish patriots may burn over the past, and whether with reason or without, it is fervently to be hoped that civil war may cease, that a whole-hearted ‘effort will be made to build anew for Ireland with the past | forgotten. If this is done there is much promise that, the Yong looked for complete union of south: Ireland and Ulster may come back. THE BONUS AGAIN Veterans of the World War will not get a bonus by Christmas. There is, however, increasing evidence that they tay receive it eventually at the hands of Congress. Col. Forbes of the Veterans Bureau assures the veterans in an: ‘address that the President is not opposed to a bonus, if a proper means of financing it can be fqund. There also comes news from the former service men in Congress that they awill not permit the bonus to be made a “rider” to any beer and light wine legislation. It is probable that most former | ‘service men would keenly resent an effort to capitalize the ‘onus in any legislation to modify the Volstead act. act is to be modified, it ought to be done on the merits of that proposed alone. TOXIC Learned and bewhiskered medical specialists, investigat- ‘ing the chemistry of home-made wines, say that many cellar- drewed-and- fermented concoctions are dangerously close to the borderland of poisons. ‘They are trying to learn the effects of aldehydes and ‘other chemicals that develop in. wines made by amateurs. ‘Acetone, which lacerates the stomach and paralyzes certain nerve centers, is often present when wine includes a vinegar | . er acetic-acid ferment. If nerves are on edge and stomach sour or gassy, give thought to possibilities of the stuff in the kegs down cellar. | MOODY. : John Moody, business expert, feels moody. nother period of deflation coming late next year.

D., Dec. 20.—Dairying is not an “in and out” system of farming according to Max Morgan, dairy specialist of the North Dakota Agricultural college. Dariying should begin as a fifteen be thoroughly planned by an alert and far-seeing mind, he adds. The “in and outers” who go into and give any one with experience in that work “cold chills” by casual way in which they take it up, he de- clares. Mr. Morgan cites the example of two farmers visited with the aim to see whether conditions on their farms were right or could be made right for the dairying business. The first man was willing to buy six or eight additional cows the sec- ond 12 to 16, The first had plenty of feed—corn fodder, prairie hay, grain, oats and straw; the other had limited feed. The first had a cheap but warm and well ventilated barn; the other a mere shell which was dark and unsanitary. The first had been. milking for 12 years while the other “had come to it” only in thd last four. The first had a pure bred bull of the breed he was milking; the herd of the second hgd a herd that “look- ed like the rainbow division” as far as colors represented were concern- ed. According to the ‘dairy specialist the second one faced grave danger of failure. The first man was given the fol- lowing advice: 1. Do not go further into debt. Sell the culls and buy a couple of good grade cows and purebred buli. 2. Feed the remaining cows a clo- ser diary ration—whatever available about the farm and some oil meal as - well. 3. Plan to dig a pit silo next year. 4. Put in twenty acres each of sweet clover, oats and corn. 5. Use the straw under the cows (not inside of them) and market « 6. Do the diary first thing in the morning and quit field work early enough in the evening to give the housewife a chance to get her work done after the milking.
