Especial to THE TIMEs.)


Valparaiso, Ind, June 2S.-A ire
:nendous sensation was created here
yesterday afternoon in the Knots
election cases and a veritable bomb
hurled into the camp of the defense
when certain afidavits were intro
duced after hot fight.
The two affidavits in question were
secured last January from Dog Face
Charley and Diamond Bill Frazier.
They were sworn to by both men in
the presence OF a number of wit
nesses. Two sets were taken.
Cause Hard Fight.
One of the sets was given to States
Attorney welsheimer Of Gary by Alder
man Bowser when the latter was at
outs with Mayor Knots. The lawyer
has had them ever since.
There was a hard fight made by at
torneys for the defense when the state
offered the afhdavits in evidence and
the jury was visibly impressed with the
conspiracies alleged in the documents.
Their reading made the testimony of
Dog Face Charley" lose a great deal
of its weight and their influence with
the jury is indubitable.
Perjury Charges Nows
The documents themselves unless
both Yoconovich and Frazier perjured
themselves show conclusiveIy the e.
istence of a conspiracy among those in
power at Gary to use the most
questionable methods in lever govern
ment- The state will argue that If the
afidavits are perjuries than the testi-
nnony of both men at the Knots trial
will be absolutely without effect.
States Case Strengthened.
Attorneys Welsheimer and WINERY
are jubilant over the introduction of
the dangerous affidavits into the court
records by Special Judge Hanley and
declare their case against the defend
ants Is materially strengthened In the
meantime they will be a revelation to
the people of Lake county and a blow
to the allegation of the defense thai
the cases against Knots were hatched
by Sheriff Grant for political spite.
The affidavits are as IoIiows:
State of Indiana,
County of Lake.

DANGER IN POOR SEED.
Corn That Has Good Appearance Often
Does Not Contain Qualities
For Sprouting.

One of the incidental results of the
corn shows held recently throughout
the country was the discovery that a
considerable amount Of corn that looks
good is really of poor seed quality
The fact should serve as a warning to
corn growers, for the apparent mean,
ing of the tests made is that much OF
the corn raised during last year is in
such condition that it will not grow.
The corn show held in Kansas a
short while ago brought about 100
samples of corn. After the prize win
ming samples had been separated from
the rest two lots Of forty ears each
were taken at random from the re-
manning exhibits for a termination
test, which was made under the direc-
ton of an expert.
In making the tests six grains were
taken from different parts of each ear
and placed in a tester till they sprOut-
ed or had time to sprOut. These tests
were made ia duplicate in order to Sc
cure a thoroughly reliable result In
the first lot of forty ears the test
showed that only 70 per cent of the
corn was good, % per cent being worth
less for seed. In the second lot Of
forty ears better results were OBJ
tained, only 15 per cent falling to
grow, So per cent being good. The
general average for the eighty ears

MARKETING LAMBS.
The Best Time to Sell Them is When
They Have Reached a Weight
of Eighty Pounds.

The best time to market lambs is
when they are of the size and weight
and finish which are most desired. On
the general market lambs that are ma
tured to good finish at eighty pounds
weight are the best sellers. This finish
and weight will be attained at differ
ent ages, depending upon the care and
feed that are dealt to the lambs.
Spring lambs first appearing on the
market weigh little more than sixty
pounds. but if they have the quality
and the finish they easily command
top prices. During the summer months
consumers of mutton desire small cuts
because they do not eat much meat
during the warm weather. This gives
rise to a strong demand for lambs
ranging in weight from sixry-fve to
seventy pounds.
There is no particular season that is
best for selling lambs, as the market
varies at the different seasons subject
TO conditions that are at times difficult
TO account for There is never time,
however. when lambs weighing eighty
pounds will not sell as prime, prOvid-
ed they are prime in form, quality and
condition.

THE ROAD AND THE TRAFFIC
Should Highways Accommodate All
Traffic or Should the Latter Be
Restricted to Certain Vehicles?

Whether the road should be con-
structed to accommodate the traffic or
whether the traffic should be restricted
20 meet the limitations Of the road Is
a subject which is being discussed
with considerable interest by many
who have interests at stake.
It is contended by some that as the
roads belong to the people they should
be free to the public for whatever traf-
ic is placed upon them. In the United
States, as elsewhere, the fast speeding
automobile becomes a factor in road
destruction. In some parts of England
and in France and some other places
the traction engine, pulling heavy
freight trains, limit the life of a stone
road. In some Of the countries OF
southern Europe trolley lines with
heavy cars built to run on the roadway
without tracks are in full operation.
These naturally destroy the roadway
and make the upkeep expensive. Some
taxpayers argue that the speeders and
the freighterS and the trolley cOmpa-
MES are getting something for moth
ing; that the property of the public is
being given for the use of private in
terests, and that II those interests want
roads for their unusual traffic they
should buy a right Of way and con-
struct their own roads.
On the other hand is the contention
that the building of roads is an en-
gineering proposition pure and simple;
that the character of the traffic is and
has always been subject to change;
that it has changed many times with
IN the history of road building, and
that If the present TOadways will not
stand up under the new traffic cOndi-
tiOnS ii is the business of the highway
engineers to build better ones; In other
words, that the roads must keep up to
the requirements of the traffic.
While the discussion is going on the
engineers are constantly studying the
problems presented and constructing
better roads.

1t is important that remedies to kill

You will get more fruit by spraying
thoroughly and the quality will be such
that you can sell more Of It as first

A moist soil, when kept In an un-
frozen condition as long as possible, is
the surest means to prevent winter

The holes for your new trees must
be made larger and deep enough to re-

The drops Of gum which exude from
the roots Of the peach trees show
where the bOrer is. Persistent use Of
the wire is the safest remedy.
Many a man has been surprised at
the effect Of one load Of barnyard ma
