Mrs. Krebs, the Junction City muir
leress, was taken to the penitentiary
asst week. She has shown no signs of
breaking down. Now that the SEN
ence has been passed, she is the same

ate board of agriculture to take the

issions dealing with the product OF
lie soil. Then we might expect such
orlI as the Kansas board is now do
e."
