NATIONAL PROHIBITION The l^aw is Being Violated by Many People. Nearly every person in the United Ptates already has violated the prohibition law. according to Represen-' ta'.ve Igoe of Miss uri, who recently read the following formidable list of; law violators on the floor of the house: Any farmer wh has cider contain-, ing fn excess ol one nan 01 x per wu i of alcohol and which acquired this excess either naturally or artificially since January 17, 1920. , Any housewife who has made any kind of beverage since Jan. 17 containing more than one-half < f 1 per cent. ? Any one who makes beer in his home containing one-half of 1 per cent of alcohol or more. Any ne wh0 has an intoxicating beverage anywhere save in his home and has not reported it to the Commissioner. Any one who has in his possesion any formulator substance designed or, intended f r use in making beer orj wine or brandy. Any one who carries a drink even from his home and from a supply he may lawfully have. .Any one who gives another a drink except in the home of the giver. Any one who buys a drink. The reading of this list was too much for Mr. Igoe and he gave way to sarcasm, closing hi^ statement with this: a "I read yesterday mat a man iu Virginia was arrested for having on hie person a hot water bottle full of whiskey. I suppose the inspectors will now have t> inspect all the hot water bottles in the country This danger-1 ouspervision of the use of hot water bottles must stop. Perhaps it might be well to make it a crime to have a h t water bottle anywhere except in one's home. I shall have to talk to fny friellds from Minnesota about this." Mr. Volstead is a representative from Minnesota. ? o A POETIC ROBBER.

If cky Hoi PIG M USES FROM COW. J. K. Brewer < f near Kemper was in The Herald office Monday and of a pig he owns which nurses from a cow every day. The pig has become s attached to the cow that he follows her out into (he field and remains with her throughout the day. The pig belongs to a litter which came off some weeks ago, and has c mpletely abandoned his mother and his brother and sister pigs. Mr. Brewer said the cow began to fail in her daily milk supply, and the oilier day while watching her he was as tonished to see the pig raise up on its I hind legs and take hold to one f, the teats. He nursed the cow until liis hunger was satisfied, but when th^j cow walked off into the field the pig followed her. Mr. Brewer says it is the first time he has ever heard of a pig pursing fr m a cow. o Revival Services at Kemper.
