announcement was made yesterday
The prison officials here will release

There is a touch Of human interest

submits Selections to Hot House
Tests.

Inman, March lion the farm Of
Henry Eschman, north of here, was
raised 40 bushels of corn to the acre
last fall, while his neighbors husked
nubbins. There's a reason
The secret of raising 40 bushels an
acre is explained in the careful selec-
ton of the seeds and in filling the soil.
Mr.. Eschman is a crank on the seed
question. While husking the corn, he
ties a little box on the side of the
wagon and as he picks the ears he Sc
lects those he thinks might make good
seed corn
With q good supply of these at the
end of the husktng season, he goes into
the second process of selection. He
begins to examine each ear individual
ly, knowing that the pains in the
selection of the seed is repaid with a.
crop such as his neighbors can not half
boast of; he picks a kernel and ex-
amines this, paying particular atten-
ton that 1t is of a long slender kind.
BY this continued process he has now
raised corn that has long oblong
kernel instead of those short chunky
kernels that are at home on a fat cob.
Mr.. Eschman is after kernels, great
long ones, that show the white or
heart for this is the real nouishing
matter in the individual kernel
He examines the length Of the ear
and the kind of kernels and make these
in his choice for seed ears for the COM
ing season. BY repetition for several
years he has accomplished what everv
farmer can do, gets a large healthy
growth of corn.
But even after selecting the speci-
men ears he submits them to a hot
house test, and those ears that fail TO
show kernels, are thrown out 1t will
be seen that these tests guard against
unfertile and inferior grades.

APPETITE DROVE MAN CRAZY.
w. H. GaIbreath Found Insane by
PHYSICIANS.

Wichita, Kan. March 11.-W. H.
Galbreath, who has an abnormal ap-
petite, was declared insane by a COM
mission composed of DR.. Martin Ha-
gan, DIR. Charles E. Ross and Judge
E. E. Enoch. The latter was assigned
by Judge McCanIess to act as attorney
for the demented man. The verdict
of the commission was insanity caused
by general dementia and melancholia.
Galbreath was removed from Wich-
tia hospital Monday night to the coun-
ty 1ail. His monomania was a vora-
cious appetite, never fully satisfied. 1t
was necessary to keep guards around
the kitchen and pantry to keep him
from eating all the provender. He is
go years of age, a junk dealer, and has
lived in Wichita since 1883.

keeper has been busy working over

of the great howl about the pitchers

none of the clubs seem to be inclined
to scrape it off and the hump will re-

President Chester Woodward will

be long before some announcement
concerning grand stand alterations
will be made. There are a number
OF seating arrangements contemplated
but Just what will be done must be de-
cided at board meeting.
March Is is the reporting date for
pitchers and catchers only. The field
ers come in March 90. Manager
Moore is anxious to get a look at the
lads he has written about all winter

ing ever since he took the manage
ment of the club has terminated sat

nkely VIII Join the KawS. Breiten-
stein Is a personal friend of Moore
and the manager knew he could de-
pend upon him. He is primarily an
outfielder and hit 1888 with the Column
bia team in the South Atlantic league
last season.
Outhelder Crompton, whom Moore
bought from Cincinnati a short time
ago has signed his contract and it is
not likely that Breitenstein will be
needed in the outheld. In that case
he will be used as utility man as he
mas played nearly every position in an
able manner.
Thomson, MoLaurin and Cronp-
ton seem the most probable trio for
the outfield. McLaurin is holding out
and should he not come in, then Brett
enstein is assured a place regularly.
Viola, whom Moore thought he had
recently, but could not get Chatta-
nooga to waive on, played on the
same team with Breitenstefn before
being sold to Nashville in the South
ern league, and while the two were
on the same team Breitenstefn pushed
Viola hard for the batting honors
which Viola finally nailed at the tor
