HAIRS IN EVIDENCE
Microscopic Test Admitted in Evi-

Microscopic Test Admitted in Evil
dence in schafer Case.
Bedford, Ind, May 21.-The state
continues to hurl missiles from its
heaviest guns in the trial of James
Mcdonald, charged with the murder of
Sarah Schafer, the Bedford school
teacher. Probably the most important
witness yet called was DR.. Gardner.
who gave expert testimony concern
ing the hairs found in the dead hand
of Miss Schafer and eight hairs cut
from the mustache Of Mcdonald by \
barber. What effect these hairs will
have on the jury is problematical. 1t
they have the effect the prosecution
proving Mcdonald guilty.
DR.. Gardner testified that he was
member of several microscopic socie-
ties and that he had complete set of
instruments. He examined the hairs
cut by barber from McDonald's mus
tache. he said, and compared them
with two of the hairs found between
the fingers of Miss Schafer.
The two hairs from between the
fingers OF Miss Schafer, said the ex-
pert, were evidently from the mus
tache Of a man, while others, which
were long and fine, more resembled
hairs from the head of woman, al
though they might have been from n
mans head. The witness said the two
short hairs found in Miss Schafer's
hand were similar to those taken from
McDOnald's mustache presented by
Barber Kennedy. In the opinion of
| the witness the mustache hairs all
came from the same face, while the
| others showed a difference in length
and color
| On cross examinatiOn DR.. Gardner
| said that there was a possibility that
the mustache hairs were not from the
| same face and admitted that dead
| hairs would sErivel. The defense con
| Quoted a rigid crOSs-eXaminatiOn and
| strongly brought out the fact that the
doctor could only pronounce a posi-
! lively perfect resemblance between
two of the hairs cut from the mus
| tache by the barber and those fount
in the dead girls hand. The hairs
| were admitted as evidence after siren
uous objections by the defense, which
, claimed the hairs taken from Miss
Schafer's hand had been sent to Louis
| vile for examination and that there
was no proof that those offered IL
! court were the same.

GATHERED THEM IN
Seventy Prisoners Taken Out of New
York Poolrooms.

New York, May 21.-Simultaneous
raids on twenty-five alleged poolrooms
and poolroom exchanges were made
here by the police, acting under orders
from Police Commissioner McAdoo.
Axes, hammers and crowbars were
used at many of the places to batter
down specially constructed iron and
steel doors and to gain entrance
through barred windows. Less than
an hour was spent at the work and
police officials are highly pleased with
the results. Seventy prisoners were
taken and many telephones and tele-
graph instruments were confiscated,
besides number of books and racing
charts that were found in the rooms.

The Most Successful Farmers.

Every person who has enough judg-
ment to so in when it rains knows Ell
Their from experience or observation
that our most successful farmers of
staples are our live stock farmers, says
Farm and Ranch. That doesn't mean
hogs alone, cattle alone or sheep alone,
but a iudicious selection of different
kinds of stock adapted to the farm and
the farmer In some cases hogs alone
will work out all right. In other cases
cattle or horses or sheep will do better
for the farmer than any one kind. But
on most farms several different kinds
will prove more profitable than any
one kind. Hogs may be kept, and in
addition as many sheep as if no hogs
were kept There is on the average
farm place for hogs, a place for cat
tie, place for sheep, etc, and one kind
will not interfere with another, and
properly managed all will be found
profitable. 1t is an easy matter with
dozen sows to raise, feed and ship
car load Of fat hogs, worth $500 to ST.
600. At the same time a Lot of fat NUT
ton sheep may be sold for, say 5000 to
$500 and nearly as much for wool.
Then q few fat steers for the local
butcher will easily run the total up to
$1,000 or $1,000. The manure from
this stock will pay for all the labor of
feeding and marketing, and the feed,
all grown at home, costs less than the
same could be bought for by feeder.

Mistakes In Feeding.

Mistakes In Feeding.
Professor Henry of the Wisconsin
SFation claims that American cattle
feeders are giving their stock too much
Tain. He says in part:
II have spent considerable time in
going through literature on the subject
and am surprised that the British feed
err gives to his fattening beeves but
small grain allowance. You all know
that the turnip, or rutabaga, as we call
it, is extensively used in feeding opera
tons in Great Britain. On searching
authentic sources of information find
that the usual grain allowance for the
fattening steer in England and Scot
land ranges from six to eight pounds
per head daily. In q few cases it
reaches ten pounds, and in only one
case out of score or more of reports
have | found it stated that so much as
twelve pounds of grain We're fed to
steer in a single day, and this amount
only at the close of the feeding period.
"The grains used in Great Britain
consist usually of barley, corn meal
cottonseed meal ard linseed meal. With
the small grain ration are fed from fifty
to hundred pounds of sliced turnips,
four or five pounds of cut straw and
five to ten pounds of hay, either out or
long. On this ration the steer of Eng
land and Scotland usually makes a
gain of between one and three-quarters
+O two mounds daily mr. saw from fifty
to sixty pounds per month. There is no
need of saying that the English stock
man does not fatten his bullocks or
that they are inferior to ours when
they are sold for the block. The Eng
lish stockman, as a rule, has good cat
tie. and he puts them on the market
usually in finished condition"

THE GROWERS
ef BEEF CATTLE

In country of such magnitude as
this all prophecies in regard to future
markets are liable to fail, even if based
on apparently sound reasoning. And
30 they have failed thus far in the cat
tie market. Expectations of improved
markets after the range cattle were
Dut OF the way have been disappointed
by liberal marketing of farm cattle
held back to be clear of range competi-
ton or kept in the country because Of
the fine fall weather, which permitted
them to utilize pastures longer than
usual. But now that the bulk of the
heavy corn fed cattle and the grassers
from ranges and farms are out of the
way poultry and game are in the mar
ket to large degree, and pork is COM
paratiyely cheap and always popular
when cheap. But after December the
poultry will no longer compete to an
unusual extent. What are the pros
poets for cattle? During the late sum-
mer and early fall months not so many
cattle as usual were put on feed, and
there should not be a burdensome sup
ply of fat cattle for midwinter. There
are plenty Of cattle on feed, but most
of them will be ready later than usual
because they started later. This is as
Stunning that feeders have generally
purchased the thinner and cheaper
steers to feed and that the kinds that
require short feed are not a larger
proportion than usual. 1t seems that
conditions justify expectations Of some
improvement after this month, but
there is no cattle famine in sight, as
some of our hopeful friends believe.
There are too many cattle and too
much corn in sight to hope for really
high prices for fat cattle.-Stockman

OF communicating with the officers.
1t was no small undertaking to

ter, hut my efforts were trivial COM
pared with the efforts put forth by
many of the devoted school officers
in their respective conventions. For
men and women to drive from their
homes in intensely cold weather a
distance of thirty, forty and even
sixty miles was not unusual. [ glad
ly bear testimony to the high char
acter, intelligence, devotion and en-
thusiasm Of the officers who have
been chosen by the people OF South
Dakota to manage their common
schools. Almost without exception
they exhibit an earnest desire to ad-
minister the trust committed to
them to the first advantage of the
youth of the state.

acterized your actions in the past.
