CHILD DRUTALLY BEATEN.
w. E. Burke Charged with Almost
killing His 12-Year-OId SON

killing His 12-Year-OId Son
w. f. Burke, aged 40 years and white,
was arrested late yesterday afternoon, at
his home, No. 21S Duffy street, east, and
is held at the police station on a charge
of cruelty beating his 12-year-old son. The
child's condition said to be critical, and
Burke may not be given a preliminary ex-
animation by Recorder Myrick in Police
Court this morning.
At police headquarters the blotter
shows that the arrest was made by
Mounted Patroman w. H. Smith and j.
c. Green is named as the prosecuting wit
ness. Burke says that the complainant
is his father-in-law and is a Florida
preacher The trouble attracted fully 200
people, and the street was impossible I'M
til the arrival of the patrol wagon. The
child's screams were heard some blocks
away, and a score of telephone messages
were sent to Desk Sergeant Lingg at
headquarters before the arrival of the Of
ficer. The patrol wagon, with the sally
port man, was hurried to the scene, but
the man had been arrested before its ar
rival.
1t is charged that Burke beat the child
with stick and cuffed him around the
house. The assault was witnessed by Mrs.
Burke and her father, but they were pow
erless to stop the display of temper and
brutality. Burke was sober when seen by
a representative of the Morning News at
police headquarters, but was in a sury
mood. He was sleeping on one of the
hard benches and did not appear to mind
his confinement. He cursed his father-in-
law and denied that he had treated his
young son as is charged He stated that
the child had been disobedient. and that
he only slapped it, The prisoner did not
appear to have been drinking and his act
was probably caused by temper. The res
idents of the section in which the assault
was committed We're greatly stirred up
and but for the arrival of the police
Burke would probably have been handled
roughly.

Interesting Letters from Hancock

Interesting Letters from Hancock
County Farmers.
The May bulletin Of the State board
OF agriculture contains the following
interesting letters from Hancock county
farmers:
Bro oKLIN-Most of the soil of this town
is a gravelly loan. In one small locality
it is clayey, and becomes quite hard and
lumpy when dry But little underground
drainage has been done in town, but where
done it has produced excellent results.
Open drains have also proved very bene-
fetal. consider it very important that
all weeds should be destroyed in tillage
land, and for this purpose the cultivator
should be used often until the crops are SO
far advanced as to prevent its further use.
Be careful to pull all the weeds from
among the plants. This can only be done
by hand. One of the worst weeds in our
fields is the false, or fall, dandelion. An
other is rattleweed, called by some Nor
mon grass. e. P. COLE.
DEER ISLE-The soil in this vicinity is
mostly clay loan; not much sand except
in low lands. 1t produces good crops of
grass and holds fertilizers well. The
most troublesome weed in cultivated land
is the witch grass, which creeps in unless
constantly worked on. Yellow rattle,
called here rattle grass, gives great trouble
in fields, many having been run out by it.,
but last year it was much less trouble
some than usual. Orange hawkweek has
just begun to be noticed, having. been in.
PRODUCED as a garden plant called tassel
flower. 1t had gained good root hold in
some places before it was known as orange
hawkweek. Sorrel and chickweed are
also very troublesome. No irrigation is
done here, as a rule Top dressing of
fields is practiced to some extent, and re-
suits are satisfactory. The ground is very
stony in most places, making it expensive
to break up exclusively for grass.
r S. WARREN.
SEpGwICK-We have not only insects
and fungous diseases to contend with but
all the elements as well, and in our effo. Us
to control one of them, the drought, are
we not overlooking another, the winds,
that are depicting our soils and blowing
off some of the best of them in the clouds
of dust that constantly fly from the finely
pulverized soils in exposed places? / have
ridge of fine, sandy loan, plowed six
years ago, and 1t cut seven inches to the
