The still was too far from the road to carry away, but the sheriff fixed it so that repairs would cost more than a new outfit, de stroyed the fermenters and their con tents, and proceeded on his travels About three miles further easr, close to the Polk county line, and near the Deep Gap road, they stopped about 11:30 at a . spot where the moonshiners had evidently gone into business along wholesale lines. The still, which mast have been a oig one. had been hurriedly removed and the fire was still burning in the furnace, while nearby, buried in the ground as a precaution against freezing, vere up just ten thousand dollars.
