The North Side gang chieftain was harassed with. such, charges as vag rancy and earryins: concealed wea pons and questioned about numerous slayings and other major crimes. The search that started June 9 when Alfred ".Take" Lingle, Tribune reporter, was killed, ended early to day in c small roadhouse west of Waukegan. II-. The Lake county ( Waukegan) state's attorney and five private detectives made the raid, and Moran, after he ho confronted him. made no resistance. Lingle was a close friend of Scar fee Al Cp.pone, so when the reporter was shot down from behind, the po lice inclined to the theory that the g.'ng headed by Caponc's arch en- my, Moran, might have had some thing to do with it. Moran had disappeared, however, and when Jack Zuta, Moran's lieu tenant, was killed as a supposed se quel to the Lingle slaying, the plot thickened and search for the gang leader intensified. Chrage Is Vagrancy. There were numerous other tilings the police wanted to talk to Moran about, including the unsolved Valen tine's day massacre of seven of his henchmen last year, hut when he was raptured as he slept this morning, the charge was vagrancy. A pistol was found under Moran's pillow, so he was also charged with carrying concealed weapons. After Chicago police had arrived to rear rest him, he was released by Lake county authorities on five thousand dollar bail for each charge. Then he was brought to Chicago on one of the "public enemy" va grancy warrants issued several weeks ago for major gangsters. Put through the identification bureau and kept carefully from the view of reporters and others, he was taken into the chief of detectives' office and ques tioned. Says Is Business Man. What he told the police, if any thing, wa. not revealed, of course, but Moran told reporters in Wauke gan that a vagrancy charge against a business man like him was a joke and that so far as he knew "Santa Clans" killed Lingle and Zuta. "They can't make a vagrant out of an active business man," Moran said. "I am vice-president of the Central Cleaners and Dyers, and actively connected with the busi ness." It has been generally agreed for some time that Moran is no longer in active control of the North Side gang. Police believe he was driven out by the extensive Capoue organi zation. Moran, however, had another story. "I have been out of the booze bus iness and all other rackets for four years,' 'he said. "I have been going straight and I intend to go straight." "When Lingle and Zuta were kill ed I was in the middle of Canada on a hunting trip. I'm going on an other when I get out of this mess. I make 25 thousand dollars a year from my interest in 'the Central Cleaners and I don't want anything to do with the rackets." World World.

Hogs on experimental tests at the Nebraska College of Agriculture paid $1.25 per bushel for wheat. Prof William J. Loeffel told the Rooters. Day audience at the college Oct. 17. The pigs were fed ground wheat and tankage on Sudan grass pasture. Cost of the tankage and pasture were fig ured out before the pigs paid their bill for wheat. The pigs were on feed 105 days. Another lot of pigs in the same test on shelled corn, tankage and Sudan pasture paid $1.14 per bushel for corn. Another lot paid 79c per bushel for barley: another group $21,50 a ton for shorts and two oth er lots paid $21.00 and $23.00 per ton for oats. Each case the hogs were figured worth $9.00 per hundred at the col lege at the close of the experiment. Wheat produced the most rapid gains, the cheapest gains and got the hogs ready for market tvo weekf earlier than any other lot at a time of ye:'.r when prices are normally de clining. Another important pqflnt. Professor Loeffel stated, is that wheat is always available during the late summer and fall when corn is eithet scarce or high in price. It took seven bushels of corn and 27 pounds of tankage to produce 100 pounds of pork. Ground wheat was. two per cent more efficient than corn, pound for pound. Wheat shorts; were 73 per cent as efficient as corn. Ground oats when substituted for one-half the corn in the ration were SO per cent as valuable as corn pound for pound. When ground oats constituted more than one-fourth of the grain ration of fattening hogfi the oats reduced the daily gain. Re placing half the tankagle with table scrap meal reduced the rate and effi ciency of gain. Missouri Kog Man Uses Wheat. Missouri's champion hog raiser o; 19H0 used corn and wheat and tank age as hog feed, J. W. Burch of the i University of Missouri told the Root ers Day people in his discussion of st Pork Per Bushel." Reuben Yoder of Harrisonville, Mo., market ed 140 pigs from 17 brood sows. The 1 PSs averaged 251 pounds each or L135 Voxxnds Per liter- Their teeC ,QSt Q -s pel. hundred poUnds of pork. The pigs ate a little over 6 j bushels of corn and wheat and 20 pounds of tankage per 100 pounds; ,of their weight. Pig Pessimism Unwarranted, Hog hopes may fade a little with the seasonal decline in prices this fall but pig pessimism is not war ranted at the present time, R. M Green of the Kansas State Agricul tural College stated in his forecast of the future hog prices of the country He believes that the adverse influ ence of the money disturbance has about run its course, as indicated by the abundance of funds available in the country. The business situ ation, however, has shown little sign of any recovery which is quite a puzzling fact to those who would look ahead in any line of business. The seasonal decline of hog prices, and the action of last spring's hog market indicate that prices may work a little lower Until after the first of the year, but the small corn crop over the country, the reduction o hog production, and the probability of heavy November and December marketing are likely to Help the March and April markets just before the fall pig crop conies in, Mr. Green believes. Explodes Old Theory. In another experimental test at the Nebraska College, Profesor Loef fel exploded the theory that mixing high protein feed increases the effi ciency of pork production. His new theory is that the mixing of protein feeds adds to the palatability and varieyt of the hog's ration but not to the efficiency of production. In previous experiments the hogs were fed mixtures of tankage, cottonseed meal, linseed meal, alfalfa meal, and other high protein supplements free choice. Invariably the hogh liked the mixtures better than tankage alone, ate more feed and gained more rapidly. In the 1930 experiment the amount of crude, protein feed per day was regulated according to the amount of tankage which the corn and tank age lot consumed. Results showed that tankage was just as efficient as any other high protein feed in pro ducing pork, on this basis. The experiment was technical in nature. Professor Loeffel pointed out, and conducted only to prove or dis prove the theory of efficiency of pro 'lili II 'II. 11 IliaClltUi j;'' 1 '.iii,. he believes, the man who wishes to hurry his pigs to market can afford to mix cottonseed or linseed meal witr tankage in order to increase feed consumption and get the pigs ready for market earlier in the sea son. The only advantage, Professoi Loeffel says, is that the first pigs or the market may get a higher price than those that come in during the normal marketing season. There will be little difference in cost of gain in favor of the high protein mix tures. Wheat Not So Good for Lambs Wheat has not been so good a feed as corn for fattening lambs thi; fall. A. D. Weber of the college stat ed in a progress report of an 85 day test that has now gone 70 days. Lambs did not like the ground wheat and would not take more than a pound per head per day. They went off feed several times in thf 170 day period. Another test will be 1 run this winter to determine the o value of corn and wheat mixtures, J'lboth whole and ground. Western fewea will be fed again this winter 41 to try to find the most profitable way i" to winter them while the lamb crop last winter figuratively ate their heads off on a full feed of ground ear corn, cottonseed meal, corn sil age, and cut alfalfa hay. Lambs from these ewes will be creep fed shelled corn, bran and linseed meal. Three New Bulletins. Three new bulletins were handed out at Rooters Day. Two of them deal with pork and the other with lambs from western ewes. The uum bers and titles are as follows: Cir. 40 A Manuel for Hog Raid ers. Bui. 251 Barley as Hog Feed. Bui. 250 Raising Early Lambs from Aged Western Ewes. These bulletins as well as written reports on the experiments are avail able for free distribution to anyone requesting them. School Lunches. As we are approaching colder days, we realize that the school .lunch needs something warm. For variety, why not try a vegetable soup. Per haps you will enjoy the following recipe and it is a good one to use left over vegetables.

Tree Program for 1931 Begins In Nebraska early spring is the best time to do extensive tree plant ing but right now is the time to plan for this planting. The ground where the trees are to be planted should be ployed this fall and left in a rough loosened condition over win ter. This will allow the absorption and storajre of winter moisture. In the spring as soon as the frost is out Of the ground, work the soil thor oughly with a disc and harrow, mak ing a compact seed bed. The plant ing season is usually during the the early part of April but the I ground should be prepared by April 1 1. i ne r-xiension service or tne Agn- i cultural College will distribute forest trees and lists of available stock will be sent out about December 15. Those forest tree seedlings will be distri buted in the spring under the terms of the Clarke-McNai y Act.

ODD PLANES TO BE TRIED Washington The autogypo plane was described Tuesday by David S. Ingalls, assistant secretary of the navy for aeronautics, as "the one new outstanding development in avia tion." Ingalls said the navy depart ment would purchase one or more of the planes for experimental purposes as soon as they are "further along in the development stage." The odd shaped plane, with its stub wings and great rotating, fan like blades whirling over the fuse lage was demonstrated to naval men recently. Ingalls said those who flew the ship were enthusiastic about its possibilities in the field of naval aviation. Hon. Troy L.
