All About Milo Maize.

Milo belongs TO the group Of the
Sorges, known as Duras. To the same
group belong White Durra. known as
jerusalem Corn. and Brown Durra.
The stems OF this group are piihy, and
the leaves somewhat scanty. For this
reason they are not very good for fod-
der. However. Or. Ball, Agronomist
in charge OF the Grain Sorghum In
vestigstions Tor the L. 5. Dept. Of Ag-
riculture, is haYing experimental work
done 1T the various stations OF the
Great Plains Region. looking toward
an improvement Of the fodder produc-
ing value, especially Of Milo
Milo Was tirst introduced into the
Southern Atlantic States between 1850
and 1855. probably coming from Africa.
On the dry elevated plains Of West
Texas. Oklahoma and Kansas what 10

feet 10 ~.
Objectionable Points-Milo has sew

The secondary head. that result from

t4 The goose neck or pendant head
This objectionable feature makes it
difficult to use the header in harvesting,
and wheh the self binder Is used. the
recurved heads make the grain end Of

Thicker seeding may obyiate the
tendency TO suekering, stooling and
branching, while careful selections OF
erect heads for seed may in a few
years almost entirely obliterate the
goose neck.

i'GANGSTERS" HELD
 FOR SUPERIOR COURT
Toughs Who Beat up George
 Nav Held in $500 Bonds Victim Was Stabbed

Steve DosboI and George Lenak. who murderous1y attacked George Nav, a resident of Carpathian street. three weeks ago as he was returning home in Spruce street, after, vain attempted to prove an altbi before ing were both held for the Superior Court under reduced bonds of $500.
 Although it is alleged by the prose- cution that another victim as well as others who might furnish valuable in formation have been cOerced by fhreats of violence to disappear tenn porariIy from the city, the evidence of Nav with that of Officers Cross man and Beamer was such as to sat1s- fy the court that both accused were implicated in the assault.
 Nav testified that while walking through Spruce street near Hancock avenue he was followed by the pair who after insulting remarks beat him Crossing to the other side of the street he was followed by Lernak who o stabbed him six times with a knife.
 Several witnesses in behalf of the defense testified that the prisoners were continuously in the saloon of Mike Prisl1i, on Spruce street during the evening, but their evidence was badly shattered by cross-examination of Prosecutor Delaney.
 At the conclusion of the trial both prisoners were greeted by mum Der of friends, among whom were wit nesses for the prosecution. The au- thorities assert that both men are the leaders of a gang of touhS who have long terrorized the neighborhood in which they live and on several occas- ions have trough housed" the Ricaz- zfs dance hall on Bostwick avenue. The leader has boasted he once "-beat up" three policemen in Cleveland, O., and would do the same here if occas- ion presented itself.

headquarters. No definite confirmation of this rumor can be secured from the authorities who absolutely decline to discuss any phase of the present in- vestigation.
 It is asserted by those closely in touch with the situation that it was particularly significant that irnmedi- ately after the recent conversation held with Mattio and Pizzichemi in room adjoining that in which the coroner was questioning Buonomo Wednesday night, the state and city police be- came particularly active and immedi- houses in Bridgeport known to be oc- cupied by characters in touch with the White Slave fraternity.
 Among these were the apartments formerly occupied by Mattdo on State street and an apartment now occupied by a Greek woman at 659 Main St., rect1y opposite the address which per- sistent1y crops out in the fnvestiga- tion, 105 South avenue. There it is known three trunks were found, the contents of which are believed to be- long to the murdered girl, and to have been sent to Bridgeport from Chicago but recently
 It was at first denied by the police that the trunks were in any way con- nected with the case. but 1t has sub sequently been learned through private sources. that not alone did they wish to ascertain what is beneath their covers, but that every effort has been made to gain an entrance to the apart ment where they are stored. It is stated that admittance to the room was refused the local officers, who were sent to seize the trunks. and that when the officers left to telephone their sup erior, a lock was placed upon the out side of the door to bar entrance by means of keys.
 It was further learned that the wom- an who is reported as maintaining the lodgings was formerly located in an- other place in Bridgeport, but that upon the removal of the principal to Hartford she assumed control and has since remained open. The quarters at Main and South avergse are never cc- cupiea during the cAx er early night That they are occupied merely as a private sleeping and meeting place for the tenant and her friends Is the re- port of one who has closely observed the establishment for some nights past.
 Officers again visited the apartment at an early hour this morning in the hope of intercepting visitors but all implicated refuse to comment on their reception or the evidence they expect to unesrth. It is believed that in the event of no one returning to open the apartment today the States Attorney will be appealed to for a1search- war rant of the premises.

Vienna, Oct. 31.-A three days bat tie between the main forces of Bull garians and Turks, 40 miles south east of A1rianople, has ended in the overwhelming defeat Of the Turks, if messages from Sofia are true.
 Though it was thought they might be somewhat exaggerated. the Bull garian reports were generally accept ed here as substantially accurate. The Turks made some small successes further east. near the Black Sea coast compared with the demoraiiza tion of the main Turkish army which has opposed the Bulgarian advance to- ward Constantinople.
