b|TTNER'S PLEA INSANITY
SLAYER OF FATHER TO BE AL. LOWED TO GO TO FUNERAL.
Mother Unexpectedly Withdraws Aid From Son, Saying He Looks
 Like a Convict"

St, Louis, July 31-Unless some. thing intervenes, Arthur P. Bittner, Jr., will be taken by two detectives to attend the funeral of his father, whom he murdered
 The slayer was visited at headquar- ters by his mother, who was with a daughter The mother broke down when she saw her son. His close cropped hair shocked her
 You look like a convict" she said with a shudder.
 The mother wept bitterly through out the interview.
 How could you do it7 Papa was always so good to you. You must have been crazy" she said tearfully.
 At times Bittner seemed to realize the enormity of his crime and then he would sob and shake with emotion.
 Mrs. Bittner told her son he would have to stand the consequences of his act. She said she might visit him again. but not unless he properly con- ducted himself in prison. She told him if he went to the penitentiary she would visit him before she died.
 The state will charge Bittner with murder in the first degree. His only defense will be insanity. This had been urged by the mother and her statement that the boy would have to fight his own battle was surprise.

USE WINDMILL IN IRRIGATING
Water From Surface Tank
How to Apply.

A reader in the lower Panhandle OF
Texas asks for information in regard
to the possibility Of irrigating a gar
den OF an acre or more with WIND
mills. The crops which he wishes to
raise are onions, sweet potatoes and
peanuts. An ineXhaustible supply or
water can be had at a depth OF about
IS feet and the winds are very strong,
especially in the spring.
The usual plan is to get a good
supply of water from a surface tank,
writes H H. Harrington in the Farm
and Fireside These tanks are usual
ly made by scraping the dirt from
the outside, so as to form an en-
bankment and an inner enclosure OF
whatever size is desired, say from
30 feet to 100 feet in diameter.
The soil on the inside is not scraped
out, because it has been found that,
as a rule, the tank will hold water
better by leaving this soil undis-
turbed
The soil is very rich and fertile
when water is applied, and com
paratively small amount of water is
all that is needed While making the
levee, a pipe with a valve or cutoff
is placed in the embankment, and
when it is desired to irrigate, the
water is simply turned on from this
pipe, and by little surface bitches con-
veyed to the garden or small field,
where needed Sometimes difficulty
may be found by the water sinking
into the ground through a hole and
refusing to pass along the surface
ditch. This can usually be remedied
by tamping the ditch with little mud
by means of a hoe If this fails, a
short plank trough will carry the wa
ter over the sink-hole.
Perforated tile would undoubtedly
be better means of conveying this
water, much less water being re-
quired. This tile can be made from
concrete for use where there is little
or no alkali, as is the case on the low
er plains of Texas. Any kind of gar
den vegetables may be raised with
advantage. Sweet potatoes require
much less water than onions.
Watermelons will usually be found
a paying crop, because one or two If
rigations will be sufficient.
In the same way peanuts will be
profitable, but sweet potatoes would
be the most profitable. The water is
usually passed down the rows, and
the ground must not be allowed to be-
come too dry before the first irriga
ton. Otherwise, the tendency is to
escape beneath the surface and not
pass along the dead furrow on the
surface. One good windmill and tank
should irrigate as much as five acres,
if properly handled

A "TypicaI" Russian Scene.

At our feet, moored to one Of the
supports of the bridge, was a fiat
barge, and on it soldier, in a black
tunic and high boots, was washing
his linen himself; he must have
climbed down the bridge to get there
There was not a sound in the air,
except the splash made by the wash
ing. And then from the plain, dusty,
rutty road a whole line of fiat carts
creaked along, one in front of the
other, five Of the foremost being with
out drivers; all Of these carts were
full of sacks. Alongside of the sixth
walked the owner, a bearded peasant,
dressed in a brown leather and very
dirty coat lined with sheepskin. And
every now and then he Influenced the
march of the line of carts by shout
ing a word or two to the horses. Not
long after this the line of carts cross
ed the bridge and turned into the
town, and the creaking died away in
the distance; the lazy stiffness fell
upon the place once more; and so
great was that stiffness that the
whole landscape seemed like a colored
slide of magic lantern.-Maurice
