C. q. Ortman Who was Arrested

Efiie May Urtman, wife OF Charles

chased across Marion county recently
after he had roubeG several hen
roosts and who was later captured
and sent TO the worlahouse to serve
u long sentence yesterday commenc-
cd suit for divorce in the common
pleas couit of llranklln county.
Mrs. Ortmam lives at 256 South
Twentieth street. Columbus. She
says that she lis compelled TO take
i'm washings to support herself and
three children. The Ortmans were
married at Newport, KY, July 3.

To surprise their friends.
Ortman with some relatives made
a raid on some hen coops near
Scott Town recently. Farmers
chased them on horseback TO a
point three miles south of the city
where they fired upon the fugitives.
Ortman and his pal abandoned the
rig and fled. They were later cap
tured near Columbus,
The rig was brought to this city.
1t contained a number of chickens
and the rear was riddled with the

While Mrs. Frank Bryan, OF No.
337 West Center street, had gone to
the home of a nelghbor for a short
informal call, Thursday afternoon,
thieves entered the home and COM
pletely ransacked it in every depart
ment. The miscreants secured 81 in
money, a ladies' size gold watch, sew
eral solid silver spoons and other
small articles of jewelry. The total
value OF the stoleL property will ag-
gregate $50.
When Mrs. Bryan left home, her
children were playing in the yard and
she did not lock the doors. She
was gone about one hour and during
that time the miscscants got in their
work. The children declare that they
did not see any suspicious looking
characters in the vicinity and how the
thieves managed to gain entrance to
the home without somebody seeing
them, Is a mystery.
The police we're notified of the
theft at 4 o'clock Thursday afternoon
and an investigation was immediate
~ conducted No trace o the mis-
creants could be gained, however, and
they have undoubtedly made a safe
getaway.

A Commission Mans Views For tht
Benefit CT Producers.
By II WOODS ROBINSON. Chicago.
Many a man is wearing patches on
his pants who would be in good shape
financially today were it not for the
fact that he made the mistake of con-
signing his cattle to an irresponsible
commission firm.
A man can hang out his shingle and
go into the commission business with
less money and less brains than any
other business in the world, for there
are always lot of suckers" who will
patrOniZe him.
Most commission men in the live
stock business are honest, upright and
o. X. financially, but "there are black
sheep in all iocks" is an old saying
and very true, SO take the time to look
up the commission man financially, and
If you find him right then go ahead.
In handling live stock perhaps more
than in any other line Of business a
man must be alive to the situation and
ready to take advantage Of every point
which will aid him in making a sue
cess of the business.
In connection with this / am remind
ed Of story which is told Of the old
fashioned horse doctor who told his
assistant to administer powdered bo-
rax to a horse by blowing 1t down his
throat through tube. Later, when the
old doctor arrived on the scene, he
found the assistant choking and spit
ting In an unseemly manner and on in.
quiry was informed that the horse
blew first
Equally so in the live stock business
is misfortune apt TO come to him who |
allows the other fellow to blow first.
Don't Tie Up the Salesman.
One other vital point wish to call
your attention to- Don't put any |
strings on your commission man. If he |
who is on the market every day does
lot know more than you, when you do
lot go on the market more than three

Don't tell him to water your stock at
0 o'clock and have him miss all the
est buyers who often get filed up BY
80, for the buyers will not look at
attic that are not watered.
And then. again. Don't, with a big | :

A Seed Supply,

1t is remarkable how rapidly a sup
ply Of grain may be built up from
single four or FIVE pound sample. Take,
for example, four pound sample of
oats. This with ordinary care will
eiually produce on the average about
four bushels. This sown the next sea-
son on two acres of land will, at very
moderate estimate. give 100 and some
times upward Of 200 bushels. Taking
the lower figure as the basis for this
calculation, the crop at the end Of the
second year would be sufficient to SOW
fifty acres, which at the same moder-
ate computation would furnish 1900
bushels as available for seed or sale

tion OF the potato, which often branches

more or less translucent ON account of
Its high moisture content.
As regards the skin. 1t was noted that
uneven tubers with deep eyes were un-
desirable for market, while a netted
skin indicated maturity and, as a gen
ernl rule, good quality. A smooth skin
indicated immaturity, and hence poor
keeping quality and tendency toward
undesirable flavor. Scabby potatoes
were often mealy and Of good color,
but undesirable from the market stand
