ton Asked For-SuggestiOns hom
Members.

The annual meeting of the State Dairymen's
Association was held in the rooms of the State
Board OF Agriculture yesterday afternoon. The
attendance was rather small, but those present
were earnestly interested in the purpose of the
meeting A paper upon ''The Best Feed for
Cows to Produce the Largest Profit in Milk and
Butter" written by George jackson, read
by sylvester johnson, and in the discussion
which followed the general opinion was that
oiosely-sown corn made the best dry feed when
properly cured. In reply to an inquiry as to how
long should q cows flow of milk continue
W. IT. Broadus, of Fayette county, gave IL as
his opinion that 1t was best for her to ego dry"
at least six weeks, as she needed rest. If a
COW was not inclined to Ego dry" 1t was thought
advisable to milk her regularly the wear round
for fear of whichever should she be neglected
For the disease known as "holow horn" Mr..
Elllott, or Greene county, stated that he had
used mixture of soap and salt rubbing it or
the base of the horns and head. For soft tan"
q Kindred disease, he had split the tail and in
!ecien salt and black pepper, beside bathing it in
turpent1ne. j. E. Thompson of DeKalb county,
thought that hollow horn was cansed
by catarrhal fever. He had never
bored the horn or split the tail for
OF pine tar to the head and about the base of the
horns for protection from the cold air and
bringing the blood to its natural circulation.
IN dlscnssinS The profits Of the dairy industry,
W. q, Broadus said that after five or six years
ne found that his cows yielded him from $50 to
$50 Il head annually. II required careful man
agement, however, 10 make it success The
whey from his cheese factory he fed to his
calves with mixture of oil-cake. His butter he
sold in indianapolis at an average of thirty cents
per pound the year round. He us d the common
COWS and graded them with shOrthorns, but is
now introducing the Hosteins, as he thinks they
are the best for cheese and the dairy.
The following named persons were elected
officers for the next year: President, ]. e.
Thompson, of DeKalb county; ce-president
"; II. Broadus, of Fayette; secretary, Sylvester
johnson, of Marion; treasurer, Charter a How
land, of Marion; executive committee, Sylvester
johnson, Charles A Rowland and J. E. Thomp-
son.

this association is authorized to take such steps
as shall give the president OF this body fun
powers in the State Board of Agriculture, and
conformity with other State industrial
associations ask OF the General
Assembly now in session an annual appropria
ton OF 81 800 for incidental expenses in the dis
semination of agricultural information"
The association adjourned last evening the

nacular there was h. to p. and no p. h., but the
cyclone was OF brief duration, ami corps of

leave trace of the devastation wrought, and
but few of the many visitors noticed any evil
denoes of the eruption which had shaken the
building and the nerves OF at least one of the
able corps OF assistants to Postmaster Wildman
The cause of the disturbance was aconfiict Of
authority between Assistant Pc stmaster Ed P,
Thompson told Sciatica) and Harry Holloway,
and for a few brief moments the boys in the Of

settled by a resort to o twenty-fOur-footr ring and
Marquis of Queensbury rules, and this doubtless
would have resulted, but for the fact that one of
the participants weakened before time was

Thompson repeatedly, and had on more than

the late lamented Henry Achey to turn green

Thompson was in bigger hurry than bis antag-

lobby to his own office. Colonel Wildman then

Work Done In Both Houses Yesterday
Action of Committees.


In the United States Senate yesterday,
Mr.. Pendleton introduced bill to amend

Pherson bill to improve the efficiency OF
the Naval Academy. The credentials of
Mr.. Taber, elected to succeed Mr.. Chilcott

and Mr.. Tabor was sworn. Consideration OF

In the House the Senate joint resolution

gress to John 8. Slater Of Connecticut for his

The Defaulting Gas Trust Employe Looked
Up In Default OF Bail.


The Dofauitlng Gas Trust Employe Locked
Up In Default Of Bail.
The Philadelphia Press gives the following
concerning the fugitive from justice cap
tnred on Thursday at the lighthouse
Martin W. Culp, the defaulting Gas Trust
clerk, who was captured near Wilmington
Thursday, was brought from the County
Prison to the New Court House yesterday
morning for a hearing. District Attorney
Graham merely produced In evidence
AGAINST him the affidavit signed by Cashier
White, charging him with fraud and embez-
element from the Trust, and upon this
Judge Hare held him in 50 800 for further
hearing. Culp was allowed until O'Clock
In which to raise the required sum, but,
though he appealed to all his old friends to
save him from a return to Moyamensing,
none could be found who would stand
surety for him.
''People don't care to go bail for these
people as much as they used to-" remarked
Assistant District Attorney Breezy. "Ever
since Major Phipps skipped out they are
more afraid about the bail money" Shortly
after 3 O'Clock Culp, who had been waiting
in the old court house, gave up all hope, and
entering the van, waiting at the door, was
driven back to his prison quarters. No
counsel appeared for him In the court pro-
ceedings. When spoken to about his little
Wilmington escapade, he said
10, just went down there for few days
until the excitement about the matter was
over, so that l could fix my bail. The
charges against me arethe old ones. There's
nothing in them"
Beyond THE he would say nothing. His
brief stay among the ice jetties had the effect
of disordering his stomach somewhat, and
he complained Of being quite unwell yes
terday.
all the dishonest Gas Trust clerks are now
under bonds except Taylor and Morrell, the
latter Of whom is supposed TO be in Wash
ington, while Taylor's whereabouts is not
known. If these two are not apprehended
within reasonable time Culp, Goodman ,sx-
Auditor Warren and ex-Receiver Smith Will
be given a hearing together, the warrants
against them being all the same, and charg-
ing fraud and embezzlement. The warrants
are based upon the affldayits of Cashier
White, and 1t is thought that there is enough
specific evidence Of fraud in each case to
make conviction sure.

ward steps were quickened.
His father died and left him between

money was lavished upon his wife and her
relatives. He provided her with diamonds,
carriages and an elegant home, which she
did not appreciate. The vicious life she
had led had charms for her which she could
not DENY. She associated with other men,
and It Is freely alleged, proved false to her
marriage VOWS. Benedict forgave her errors,
hut she continued her inconsistencies. II is
stated that the husband, ON one occasion,
becoming desperate, shot his wife, and that
ON another occasion he had her and
her paramour arrested. The wife
exerted her influence over him, and, as a re-
sult, Benedict bailed both Of the culprits
out and never pressed the charge.
A short time ago his wife, who is said TO
be very good-looking, aud has the appear

with barber In Providence, r. /. After
this Benedict seemed very much depressed,
and has since been more dissipated than

he was only allowed 1926 9 month spending
