The case Of Stehr vs.. State before
the Supreme Court Of Nebraska, in
volved the sentence OF father for
from one to ten years in the penitenti-
airy for criminal negligence, because
during blizzard In Nebraska. when
the weather was bitter cold, he per-
mitted the fire to go out, snow drifted
through crack in the door and
broken windowpane, and the bedding
of all the members of the family was
frozen stiff. The feet OF one OF the
children were frozen. and although
such fact was apparent TO the father
no physician was called In for lC days,
when amputation was found to be nee
essary and the child died Of blood pois-
oning. The defendant was convicted
Of mansiaughter for criminal negli.
gence in failing to provide medical
care after he discovered the frozen
condition Of the child's feet. In af.
firming the conviction the court held
that for parent having special charge
OF an infant child culpably to neglect
1t SO that death ensues as conse-
qence is manslaughter, although death
or grievous bodily harm was not in
tended, and II the parent has not the
means for the chlid's nurture It Is his
duty to apply to the public authorities

FLAX IS NOT "HARD" ON LAND
Idea Gains Acceptance Because Of Two
Reasons for Decreased Produc-
tion-Moist Soil Best.

II has long been thought that the
growing OF fax was hard on the
land" This idea has no foundation In
fact; nor is there any reason for ad.
herring to It, The idea has gained &C.
ceptance because OF the two reasons
for decreased production. One of these
is Hax-wilt, fungousl disease, which
kills the young plants and saps the
yigor OF the older ones. The other Ia
the meager root system OF the fax,
which demands a goodly amount OF
available plant food. For these rea.
sons, fax will do best upon a soil in
which there is large percentage OF
organic matter; soil well supplied
with moisture and free from hax.wilt
disease; and these conditions are
largely under the control Of the far.

LACE SCARFS IN HIGH FAVOR
So Popular They May Constitute, II
Desired, the Only Trimming for
Summer Gown.

The lace business Is SO revived
that women are finding new way OF
earning livelihood, or rather reviv-
ing o very old one. All the French
salons and those OF Belgium are work,
ing overtime to supply the demand.
Therefore It is quite natural that
scarfs should come into fashion and
that they should be the only trim.
ming on n simple summer gown. II
one SO desires.
II woman owns anything in the
way OF fine lace scarf, either black
or white. she should be sure to ar
range 1t in some fanciful fashion over
her shoulders and down her arms and
not throw it on casually whenever she
wears the gown. Chantllly shawls
can be draped In this fashion and
made to form one Of those winglke
transparent draperies that Callot in.
vented and all the civilized world
took up.
The trouble about one OF these lace
fhawls is that 1t has too much body
for summer drapery, and is better
when made part OF the gown and put
over material instead OF the skin. For
summer tulles and silk net are the
best choices and It does not make any
difference how vivid Is the color. Con.
servatiye women may not care to use
blue tulle over scarlet gown, but the
majority will not mind. There will
be artists aplenty to give 1t approval

EFFECTIVE MULCH FOR CORN
Spring. Tooth cultivator Is One Of Best
Implements for Work During
the Dry Seasons.

The most effective mulch for corn In
a dry season Is one about three inches
deep, made by small shoveled, shal.
low. running implement that will
leave the ground practically level.
A spring.tooth cultivator with six or
eight shovels on each gang is one Of
the best implements for dry weather,
or one-horse garden plow after the
corn is too large to work with the or.
dinary cultivator. II other implements
are used. they should be run shallow.
30 as not to disturb the corn roots at
time when they are 80 badly needed.
These small.toothed implements
leave loose. dry layer Of soil on top
for mulch, which acts like a blanket
thrown over the ground and keeps the
water from being lost BY evaporation.

Ancon, C. Z.-All tho world gives to

the wonderful work they have accom-

the world that knows gives equal r

Ian and English doctors and soldiers
who sacrificed their health and in
some cases their lives to prove that
yellow fever and malaria, the two ter
rors Of tropic America, are transmit

not my intention to tell over again
the latter story. The devotion Of
those brave men actually made pos

now one Of the most healthful places
In the world.

GRASS FOR sEMl.ARIp WEST

Results From Broadeastlng.

Hay and forage production ha.
been greatly increased by the impor-

by the United States department OF
agriculture through Its bureau of plant
industry until their suitability and
reliability for the desired purpose

Two OF these are treated In two
pamphlets, entitled Sudan Grass, a
New Drought-Resistant Hay Plant"
(B. P. l. Circular 1861, and "Vetch
Growing in the South Atlantic States"
Farmers Bulletin 529).
In the semi-arid west, where no per.
ennial grass has thus far been found
suited to the conditions. Sudan grass
promises high value for hay. Indeed
1t Is not too much to predict that
there 1t is destined to become the
leading grass for hay production. I'm.
der more humid conditions 1t has also
succeeded admirably. and will prob
ably replace fox-ta!l millets to large
extent, as 1t produces better hay and
usually larger yields.
There is still much to learn in re-
gard to the crop. but 1t has been test
ed most carefully in Texas, as well as
at Arlington Farm, Va, and has had
at least years trial at many places
on the great plains and at various ag.
ricultural experiment stations. and the
data at hand indicates approximately
the best methods Of culture.
Under light rainfall conditions. 1t is
probably best to SOW Sudan grass in
rows, yet excellent results have been
secured In dry regions from broadcast
Ing, and the grass grown that way
does not become too coarse for palata-
BILE hay. Although very similar in
appearance to johnson grass, It Is
considered far superior as forage
crop. as 1t is more bunchy. putting out
more stems and many more leaves.
Horses and COWS eat It greedily. none

deal Of sugar. being wasted. as is
often the case with the coarser

When the Sheriff Calls 8
Commotion Occurs
Miles Away.

The telephone has become a great
convenience with officers and persons
should not be frightened if they find
q sheriff or policeman at the other
end of the wire. Sheriff Welk uses
the modern way of reaching people
and has some queer experiences to
relate. Not long ago he desired to
summon man as witness and called
up his number which was soon given
him. When the "HellO" response
came across the country several miles
awsv he found that it was the mans
wife and proceeded to make his busi-
ness known. Horrors, it was the
sheriff! AS soon as the wife found
il was the officer she tainted and fell
over. leaving the man with the star
holding the receiver at the other end
of the wire. In few moments little
girl came to the instrument and said
that her mother had tainted and the
sheriff hurried back a prescription,
Wthrow some water in her face"
Ladies, please do not fall over in a
faint when the sheriff calls, let your
husbands do that when the officer
gets them on the wire.
