TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT. JULY 12. 1917. MOONSHINERS ARE NABBED Sheriff Makes Arrest as Still Is in Operation in Kitchen. ------ o - - Fritz Bush, a well-known rancher, of this county and Millard Morley, who has been living at the Bush home for some years, were arrested Thursday by Sheriff W. L. Campbell for moonshining. 'The men were op erating a still made from an oil can and 20 feet of copper tubing coiled in a tub of cold water, {’runes were used to make the alcohol. When arrested the still was in ac tive operation on the kitchen stove in the Bush home. Tlie men claim that this was their first attempt at the business. Bush was released on his own recognizance after he had been borught to town, but Morley was lodged in jail pending a hearing. Both men pleaded guilty and Justice Stanley fined them $75.00 each, which was paid. Much to tlnir surprise, they were rc-arrested again on Saturday by the United States Marshal and taken to Portland, the sheriff going out as a witness against them. They were bound over to the Fed eral grand jury. Fitzpatrick Wins Suit. York State shows an average increase of 97 bushels per acre, due to spray ing. . Everyone interested in the welfare of the country has many duties to perform: making the Lack yard gar den has made another duty. The man or woman growing a patch of pota toes must be visited, encouraged, in duced to spray the potatoes. Have a community sprayer, furnish Bordeaux mixture to spray every vine. Go at the work systematically while time remains. Make a yard to yard can vass. Get the vines sprayed. Bankers, manufacturers, business men, women’s clubs—every conceiv- abk agency, has worked to get the garden started and then suddenly the work stops. Will these agencies per mit their efforts to fail? Better lend the helping hand now to self respect ing people than to contribute to the soup kitchen next winter. Will every man reading this page take the sub ject to heart? You have not realized the seriousness of the subject and fortunately the harm has not been done. But no more time should be lost; extend the splendid system of house to house visit in the interest of canning and drying, to growing crops for preserving. Wc will gladly furnish information on spraying potatoes. Tillamook Cow Testing Association Honor Roll, June 1017.
