IN BAD SHAPE IN AUGUST LAST
MANNER HAS SINCE CHANGED
FROM "sToRM AND STRESS"
TO "CALM AND QUIET"

New York, Feb. 13.-The defense in
the Thaw case continued during the
day with the Introduction of expert
testimony as to the condition of the
aefendant's mind during the several
months following the tragedy Of the
Madison Square Roof Garden. .
eve do this explained Mr.. Del
mas, Thaw's leading counsel, Gin or
der that the jury, by means of the
wreckage on the beach, may infer that
there has been a storm upon the wa
ters."
The witness, who occupied the en-
tire morning session, was DR.. Britton
D. Evans, superintendent of the state
hospital for the insane at Morris
Plains, N. J. DR.. Evans declared that
when he first visited Thaw in the
Tombs on Aug there were many in
dications of the brain storm or ex-
plosive or Illuminating condition of
mental unsoundness through which he
had recently passed."
It now became evident for the first
time in court that the defense is en-
deavoring to show to the jury that
while Thaw was insane prior to the
killing Of Stanford White and at the
time and Immediately subsequent to
the homicide the alienists who visited
him in the Tombs found that as their
visits progressed his manner changed
from ''storm and Stress to calm
and quiet" DR.. Evans testimony bore
out this contention. -
Questions GuardedIy Drawn.
The expert at great length de-
scribed the various forms of insanity
whose symptoms he discovered at the
time of his first visit to Thaw, but
District Attorney Jerome could not in
duce Mr.. Delmas to put direct ques-
ton to DR.. Evans as to his opinion as
to the sanity or insanity of the de-
PENDANT on later visits and examina-
tions''
DIR. Evans described Thaw's manner
in the Tombs in August last as one Of
exaltation-"of exaggerated ego and
self-importance" He declared the
defendant at no time betrayed the
slightest apprehension as to any great
impending personal danger.
Replying to questions of Mr.. Del
mas DR.. Evans said that as the result
of his first three visits he reached the
opinion that Thaw was of unsound
mind. AS a result of his last five
visits DR.. Evans said he reached the
opinion that Thaw's mental condition,
while still impaired, was improved
over his first visit.

UP-To-DATE FARMING.

We clip the following from the
Elberton Star: "Mr. Charles J.
Dickson has placed on exhibition a
few stalks of cotton taken from
two-acre patch that has on it forty
five bolls to the stalk. This cotton
was raised in the fatwoods land of
Ebert county. 1t was planted June
18th, just after a nice wheat crop
had been taken from the land, and
up to about three weeks ago but one
rain had fallen on it and that in
July. The ground had been thorough
ly prepared for the wheat by deep
plowing and narrowing last fall, and
again thoroughly prepared for the cot
ton. 1t took good seed, good land,
preparation and fertilization to bring
about two good crops on the same
piece Of land. It took the manage
ment of one of the best farmers in
Georgia to look after all the details. "

SCIENTIFIC FARMING.
Greenbrier, Ark.

The business of farming requires
as much and possibly more study and
thought than any other industry. The
successful farmer must understand
the preparation Of his soil for seed.
Experiments conclusively prove that
1T IS we'll to plow little deeper each
year, and experimenters claim the
land should be disked or narrowed
the same day it is plowed. This will
make the land hold the moisture bet
ter.
1t doesn't hurt land any to be well
cultivated and worked down fine. II
helps hold the moisture. When the
land is left rough and cloddy the
winds dry it out very rapidly anil
the ground is left in poor shape for
receiving the seed.
1t requires careful judgment and
thought to determine what kind Of
grain to put on a certain piece of soil.
1t usually pays to rotate, between
oats, wheat or flax.
The careful farmer is rewarded
with bountiful crop in nearly everv
instance. Why wouldn't it be we'll
