BARS TO FREEDOM STAY
NAN PATTERSON YEARLY WATT.
ING FOR HER LIBERTY.
Talked to Reporter in the Tombs To-
day-Hopes for Release Based
Upon Jerome.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, May 11.-Nan Patterson is
still standing at the gateway of freedom
but ii bars are up. The days have passed
slowly and wearily for the girl since the
early morning hours one week ago in
which she was half carried into the court
room, only to hear the words that she had
heard pefore-an announcement that the
jury could not agree. But now Nan Pat
terson cannot believe, despite the an
nouncement of Attorney Jerome. that he
has not yet made up his mind what to do.
that she is again to be made to face
trial for her life. To a reporter Miss Pat
terson, In the Tombs today, seemed to en-
joy the permission given by her counsel to
discuss her own cause If she felt SO in
clined.
Miss Patterson said: II am sure I will
not have to wait much longer for my free
dom, not more than day or two, before 1
will be on my way home to see my mother
my poor, heartbroken mother Doubts and
fears have crossed my mind since that ter
rible night when 1 was carried out of the
court ROOM Mr.. Rand seems so bitterly
my enemy. He seems to feel SO certain
that l have been and am the most vicious
II women.
But my counsel, Mr.. Levy. has assured
me that. Notwithstanding all DELAYS. Mr..
Jerome is a kindly, fair-minded man and
that he will not do anything so cruel and
unjust as to put me on trial again for my
life. OF course, l know that If Mr. Jerome
should want to do 1t, he could. l know he
has the power to put me through that
frightful ordeal again. but, in view of the
assurances of Mr.. Levy, telling me that
Mr.. Jerome may be depended upon to do
what is fair and merciful, 1 have pinned
my hope of going free and of going home
in the next few days.
Used to Disappointment.
II am not letting myself think of it too
much. because have gotten used to dis
appointments-hard. bitter disappointments.
l am an innocent woman, and SO cannot
understand why the juries at both of my
trials were not able to decide that way and
let go.
But Mr.. Rand made such a great EFFORT
twisting every little unhappy circumstance
In my unhappy life into such shape-that
1t seems some of them believe killed sCae-
sar Young. 1 am thankful that none of
these men believed that could be capable
of such wilful and premeditated murder,
but 1t Is hard to think that any of them
could believe that l had a revolver and
drew 1t to use for any purpose whatever
The jury stood to in my favor The
other jury stood to 6. Surely IL fourteen
out of twenty-four men who were chosen
as my judges believed in my innocence it
would seem that / have some claim to ask
my prosecutors to let me go-to let me go
home to my father and mother and begin
life anew"
While the girl was talking a little bull
terrier made his appearance and leaped and
bounded in his efforts to attract attention
HE believes In me, all right" said Miss

Miss Patterson said she heartily wished
that the public light would be turned from
her SO that she could seek the privacy and

few more and better animals on every farm. Let
those who have plenty of money and little knowl-
edge of the business, invest largely in it if they
feel so inclined, but especially let us urge every
farmer, no matter how NAL his operations, to
keep a few more animals of higher quality and
give them better care and more feed; for in this
way, only, can he economically supply his soil
with that humus necessary to high and profitable
crop production. In short, the growing and feed
ing of more live stock is no longer a matter of
choice with us, but has become an absolutely
necessity. Our washed and quilted soils show
plainly the need for more humus, and common
sense and science unite to prove that this humus
can be most proftably supplied through stable
manure; while our increasing fertilizer bills fore
tell the final failure of a system of agriculture
which feeds to live stock and returns to the soil
but II per cent of that which it produces.

The State Poultry Show.

The State Poultry Show, to be held here this
winter in the Agricultural Building, will be by
far the largest and best ever seen in North Caro-
lima, and a number of choice birds from Virginia
are to be shown: How many North Carolinians
know the value of poultry and eggs? It is greater
than that of the entire. cotton crop. It brings in
to this State great sums, and vet the income from
it is but a 1.-THE of what it might be easily made.
1t will pay people to come to the show to get
the best ideas about birds, the best way to raise
them and to market them; for State Poultryman
Jeffreys is a mime Of useful information in this
respect. To most people, a poultry show is a sort
of fancy affair, but it is really one of the most
of North Carolina farmers ascertain what good
poultry and really choice eggs bring, their eyes
will be opened. They do not now know what OPP
portunities they are throwing away.-Raleigh Cor.

Lessons from the Live Stock Exposition.

Messrs. Editors: The Breeders Gazette for De-
cember 7, contains a full report of the Interna-
tional Live Stock Exposition. A few facts from
this report may be interesting to your readers.
The champion bullock over all breeds was an
Angus-a two-year-old steer fed by the Minnesota
Experiment Station. This srteer weighed 1870
pounds, and sold at auction for sc cents Fer pound.
The champion carload of bullocks was also An
gus.
In the swine department the champion barrow
over all breeds was a Berkshire.
I mention these facts because the Berkshire is
the best hog in the world for the South and the
Angus is my favorite of the beef breeds.
There is no doubt that stock raising is to. be a
great industry in this State. It is easy to make
money with good hogs. Any man in this State can
enjoy life if he will possess himself of three
things:
1. An alfalfa pasture.
2. Acres of cow peas,
3. Berkshire pigs.
Counting the cost of pork raised on alfalfa and
cowpeas is almost like trying to find the cost Of
a drugstore drink.

Gull Out Improbable Hens.
Chapel Hill, N. @.

To be profitable. at the egg basket, each hen
must produce not less than ten dozen eggs a year;
three dozen of these should be laid in the three
spring months. This leaves six months for the
other three dozen and the surplus. The more you
get from the hens during winter and early spring,
the greater will your profit be. The profit comes
from the hens that lay the larger number of eggs.
The average Of the flock is governed by the poor
layers and the non-producers. The average profit
is governed by the improbable producer. Gull
out the non-rroducers and the poor layers; close
up the gap between the 15O-egg hen and the 60
egg hen through culling; by so doing you cut
down expenses and double the proft.-Country
Gentlemen.

Western Cattle Industry Proving Profitable.

Mr.. A. Cannon arrived yesterday from his home
at Horse Shoe, Henderson County, for the pur-
pose of attending the session of the State Board
of Agriculture, which convenes this morning.
Speaking of conditions in his section, Mr.. Can
non said that the crops the past season were ex-
ceptionally good, and the farmers are in better
condition than they have been for years. The
cattle industry is coming to the front, he says, in
a most gratifying manner, and is already proving
a most profitable industry. The farmers are i'm
proving their cattle, getting the very best breeds
for the section in which they are to be grown.
Speaking of the prices of cattle now, Mr.. Cannon
said that farmers are getting three cents a pound
for the best "feeders :" that is for cattle that are
In fair condition and ready for fattening as
beeves. These prices afford a very fair croft in
the cattle i~ndustry.-Raleigh Post.

Why the "Butter Will Not Come"

Messrs. Editors: we are receiving a great
many inquiries at present about churning and
troubles connected with churning, showing that
at this season of the year difficulty in churning
is quite general.
1t is with hopes of reaching some who may
need help along this line that these few hints are
offered.
In order to understand and treat successfully
the troubles connected with churning, we must
understand the process of churning. The fat in
milk and cream is not in solution, but exists as
minute globules. They are so small as to be seen
only by the aid of the microscope. Churning is
merely causing these little fat particles to unite
until they become visible, then the butter is said
to break" When they have reached the size
of wheat kernels the churning should be stopped.
Therefore anything that tends to produce a
hard fat, tends to prolong the time required for
churning, because when hard, these little balls of
fat will not unite when knocked together.
1t is pertinent that we inquire what brings
about this hard condition of the fat. Among the
most important causes of hard fat may be men
toned the following:
l. Cows nearly dry.
2. Effect of food.
3. Cold temperature.
There is a change that takes place in both the
size and texture of the fat ~globules in milk as the
l~actation period advances. The milk from COWS
nearly dry or giving only small amounts of milk
contain fat globules that are comparatively
small in size and very firm in texture, both of
which retard the ease of churnlng.
Certain kinds of food tend to produce a hard
condition of the fat in milk. Some grains, and
especially cottonseed meal, cause the fat to be-
com very hard.
Too low a temperature is one of the most COM
mon troubles and the one most easily remedied.
A few degrees of temperature makes a big differ
ence. By using a dairy thermometer a few times
you can determine the exact temperature to be
used under your conditions, always bearing in
mind that the lower the temperature that you
can use and get butter in a reasonable length Of
time (thirty minutes), the better will be the quail
ity of the butter, and the more butter will be
made.
To remedy these defects, bear in mind the
causes as noted above and take these precautions.
1. Try and have some fresh COWS in your herd
at this season of the. year.
2. The churn should not be over half full.
3. Do not feed excessive amounts of cottonseed
meal and dry roughage. If possible, provide some
succulent food like roots and ensilage.
4. See that the cream is at the proper tempera-
ture for churning GO degrees to 81 degrees).
5. If trouble is experienced in churning, a Wig
orous souring of the cream will be found bene-
fetal. During the fall and winter many times
the cream does not readily sour, so it is kept at a
high temperature. The quality of such butter is
not good. A much better method is to add a little
sour milk or butter-milk to the cream and hold
at or near the churning temperature until sufici-
emily soured. J. C. KENDALL.
