The theory is that Beach attacked his
wife while she was running away
from him.
Mrs. Beach was the victim of a mys-
FERROUS attack On the night of February
26th last. She was assaulted while on
the lawn of the Beach winter home
here, and sustained serious cuts on the
throat. Immediately after the attack
Mrs. Beach asserted that her assailant
was an unknown negro. After an in
vestigation by city authorities and de-
tectives, a warrant was issued for the
arrest of Mr.. Beach, who it is alleged,
attacked his wife, after surprising her
clandestinely conversing with a man
ON the lawn. Beach has repeatedly de-
MED the charge.
Mr.. Beach is represented by an ar
ray of legal talent composed of both
local and New York lawyers.

MILLIONAIRE ON

Frederick o. Beach sat together today
in the Aiken county courthouse and
heard the prosecuting attorney at
tempt to prove to jury of country
men that the New York society man
had made a murderous attack on his
wife with a penknife in Aiken last
winter.
Eleven witnesses were called by the
state and a slow start was made in
their examination. Prosecutor Gunter
directed his efforts to attacking the
story told by Beach and substantiated
by his wife, to the effect that Mrs
Beach had been attacked by a negro
when she left the house to give her
dogs an airing.
DR.. Hastings Wyman and his son,
Or. Marion Wyman, who examined
Mrs. Beach's wounds soon after she
was cut expressed the opinion that
the stab was inflicted from behind.

FEDERAL PROTECTION FOR MI
GRATORY BIRDS

A bill has passed the United States
senate providing for the protection If
migratory birds
There is no other way to protect
such birds. for if they are not slaught-
cred in one section they are in anoth-
or, and as some of the breeds are
about to become annihilated and eX-
tinct, people interested in such mat
ters went to work to have law pass
ed to guard against the destruction Of
those birds which live on the north
ern lakes in the summer and in the
south in the winter
In years gone by there were mil
lions of wild pigeons in this country.
They were migratory, in the summer
season living in the north and in the
winter living in the south. Their
fight back and forth was a perilous
one, as the people along their route
would visit their roosting places and
slaughter them by the thousands. The
result is that now we never see a
wild pigeon They have been brutal
Iy and wantonly slain.
Another migrate bird is the robin
They are now being slaughtered as
the pigeons was slaughtered, 1t was
formerly considered great sport t.,
visit the robin roost and slaughter
these insectiyorous and valuable
birds, and a practice even yet indulg-
ed in in some localities. Ducks and
geese are not as plentiful now as
they have been, as they, too, are kill
cd in the spring we'll as early fall
and winter.
In addition to federal law for the
protection of migratory birds, the
different states should vigorously en-
force whatever laws they have on tn
matter of bird protection, and where
the protection is not ample for tht
preservation of bird life additional
laws should be enacted.
Georgia has set a good example for
its sister states in this particular
Game birds and all other feathered
griends of mankind have been protect
ed better the last year than ever. The
migratory birds now unprotected
should be included in the list of those
protected in Georgia.

BY STAFF OF Ga STATE COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE
What Cas- Greatest Single Step
In Agriculture in 1913 Should Be
President Andrew M. SouIe.

If the farmers of Georgia will di-
Versify their crops and start a rota-
ton system, they will have made the
greatest single step forward possible
to take during the year 1913.
Our country can never be made
permanently prosperous until it pro,
duces it's own food supplies. Georgia
can easily grow grain in the fo~ln
of winter oats to be followed by a
hay crop such as COW peas and soy
beans for the enrichment of the soil
and for the nutrition of livestock. Ev
cry farmer should devote a portion of
his farm for the grazing of hogs.
Some of the crops which should be
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1913-02-05

used for this purpose are winter
oats, spring sown oats, COW peas and
soy beans planted in succession and
peanuts and artichokes.
The Georgia farmer should not have
to purchase as much fertilizer as he
is now buying. By growing legumes,
nitrogen isf taken from the air and
conveyed to the soil and by turning
under a green leguminous crop every
three years sufficient humus will be
obtained. Then if the Georgia farm
er will feed all of the rough litter
produced on his farm, he will have a
considerable store of manure to APP
ply to his land

USES OF LIME IN GEORGIA.
John R. Fain, Professor of Asronomy

Query--How much lime. general
ly speaking, is needed for sour soil,
in what form is it best applied, when
would you apply?
A sour soil means a deficiency of
lime. To supply the need, lime may
be applied in either the ground rock
form or the burned lime form. If
ground lime is applied, from one to
two tons will be required depending
upon the acidity of the soil, and
from 1000 to 1900 pounds of burned
lime.
Ground lime is slower in action
but easier handled and when it can be
had at less cost it is preferable to
burned lime.
Burned lime should be applied a
few weeks before planting, but ground
lime can be applied at any time.
1t has been determined that the fol
lowing crops are benefited by lime
cantaloupes, peas, peanuts, tobacco,
sorghum, alfalfa clover. barley.
wheat, oats, most of the grasses and
a majority of the fruits. Crops class
ed as Indifferent to lime are rye, po-
tatoes, millet, red top grass, corn and
cotton. Experiments prove that wa
termelons are injured by it. Corn
while classed as Indifferent, has, how
ever, shown in a majority of cases, to
be helped by it. AT the college farm
an acre treated with lime produced
$50 bushel of corn. while an acre
not treated with lime produced al
bushels per acre, The soil is a Cecil
sandy loan and clay.
Where lime is used, special atten-

cation of manure or by turning under

as a stimulus and causes soils to
