thing as to the guilt of the defendant.

The court instructed the jury to de-
liver a verde in favor Of the defend
ant. Jacob Krasno, the Russian Jew
will be on trial next for perjury in con-
nection with Simon Krampe Krampe
was on trial on the charge of perjury
growing out of the murder trial of his
son, Leo Krampe. convicted last Feb
ruary, by order of Judge J. T. Talbot

The charge resulted from the state
ment Of Jacob Krasno, who wrote from
Denver that krampe had sworn that
on the morning Leo Krampe was sup
posed to have murdered Matilda
Hermsmeier near Baxter the accused
man had been at the farm on which
Krasno worked.
Krasno told this story at the HTst
two trials. both Of which resulted In
hung jury.
There was no evidence to corroborate
Krasno's statement and the court al
rected the verdict for the defendant

Special to Times Republican.
Emmetsburg. Jan. THE tabulated
crop summary for the year Of 1912. just
issued by the United States agricultur-
al department. proves to be exception
ally interesting reading for Palo AFRO
county agriculturalists. The average
production Of barley per acre Tor the
state is thirty-two bushels. while Palo
Altos average Of forty-one bushels IS
exceeded by Bremen county only. TWO
counties exceed Palo Altos total wild
hay production. one Of these being KOS
suth, which is a double sized county.
That northern Iowa Is strictly In the
corn belt. is demonstrated by the fact
that only nine counties beat Palo Altos
1912 average Of corn per acre. Her
average is fifty-one bushels while that
for the state is 45.s. The state is shown
to average 444 bushels Of oats per
acre while Palo Alto has an average OF
forty nine bushels. which Is slightly ex-
ceeded by eight other counties OF the
