WARFIELD DEATH
DUE TO POISON
Jury Finds Maryland Girl Died
From Effects Of Drug.

Sykesville, Nd, Oct. 9.-The coro.
ner's jury, which met here to investi'
gate the death of Miss Ella l.. War,
field a cousin of Ex-Governor Warfeld,
OF Maryland, rendered the following
verdict:
Miss Warfeld came to her death
from poison, supposedly cyanide OF
potassium, administered by her own
hands
After having been buried for at least
a month, the b. of Miss Warfield
was exhumed and the viscera given
over to a chemist to examine. The
chemist testified that he found no trace
of cyanide poisoning in the viscera,
but added that the strong embalmins
fluid would have counteracted the poi
son.
Dr. Daniel B. Sprecher, mayor OF
Jykesville, admitted that he gave z
certificate showing that Miss Warfield
had died of acute indigestion, knowing
or suspecting strongly that the woman
had died from poison. He said that his
action had come after the decision o1
I Coroner M1slar, coustn OF cne1as
woman, that an inquest was unneces-
sary. DR.. Sprecher's testimony was
dramatic throughout He said:
Il told Mrs Ward, the sister, that
could not give a certificate until a
coroner had seen the body. Mrs. Ward
insisted that an inquest was unneces-
sary, but l called Coroner Millar and
he came to the Warfeld home. When
Coroner Millar arrived Mrs. Ward en-
braced and kissed him and they held
a private conversation. / did not hear
what was said. Then took Mr.. Millar
to the room in which the body lay and
told him what l had discovered. He
then decided that Miss Warfield had
died of natural causes and said that an
inquest was unnecessary. I said all
right, you are the law"

Avoid Sedatiye Cough Medicines.

If you want to contribute direct
ly to the occurrence of capillary
bronchitis and pneumonia, use cough
medicines that contain codine, NOR
phine, heroin and other sedatiyes
when you have cough or cold. An
expectorant like Chamberlain s
Cough Remedy is what is needed.
That cleans out the culture beds
or breeding places for the germs
Of pneumonia and other germ dis

WATERMELONS FOR SEED ONLY
ODD INDUSTRY OF A 6ARTLEs-
LILLE MAN.
Has a Big Acreage of the Nisger's
Delight, But None Of Them
Are Eaten.

Just west Of Bartlesville. north OF
the Missouri, Kansas and Texas
bridge that spans Sand Greek, and
north OF the track as 1t enters a
wide valley, passengers have been
astonished at the acres Of big water
melon that seem to cover the en-
tire ground. and many are the
mouths that water as the passengers
mentally speculate on the sum Of
money these melons will bring the
farmer when he hauls them to mar.
ket. But not one of them ever find
its way to market
Last season passengers were wont
to express surprise that the great
field of melons were allowed to APP
parently rot on the ground and won
der was often expressed why the
farmer did not haul them to market.
1t is the same this season. But
there's a reason for it,"
The farm is owned by Jacob Wit
tenmeyer. who raises special brand
of watermelons exclusively for the
seeds. and that is why none Of them
find their way to the markets. You
cannot buy one of the melons and
take it away You can. however,
get one of them and eat II on the
place. provided you carefully preserve
every seed, for the seeds are what is
wanted. And carefully are they saved,
as carefully as if they were gems OF
great value, as indeed they are.
The melons are a very choice. and
new variety known as the Tom Wat.
son" melon and the seeds are handled
by an eastern seed house. They are
said to be the finest variety grown and
the seeds are In great demand. The
company finds that the Sand Creek
valley land is an ideal soil for pro
pagating the melons. surprising that
of any other locality and they are will
lng.to pay good price for the seeds
Mr. Wittenmeyer has fifteen acres
of this variety this year growing
them exclusively for the seeds which
he ships to the eastern seed house
The seeds bring greater returns than
he could possibly obtain from the
melons.

700 ACRE ALFALFA FARM
Large Profits and Yield Induce EweTs
White to Extend Crop.

Flattered at the remarkable show
ing made from his yield Of alfalfa,
which shows profit of nearly $50 an
acre, bringing a net revenue that il
believed to be a record-breaker,
Ewers White of Pottawatomie county,
plans to gradually increase his alfalfa
acreage until he has 200 acres planted
to that magic forage crop
Mr. White is a leading farmer OF
Oklahoma. has been prominent in af-
fairs OF the State Board Of Agricul-
ture, of which he served as member
for many years, and is believed to be
the only alfalfa grower in the world
who has harvested sixty-two crops Of
alfalfa from the same land during a
period of twelve years.
The first hay crop from the White
place this year brought $40 a ton.
The other cuttings of the present sea-
son are expected to sell at s12 to SIC
per ton. Nine hundred bushels of seed
will be threshed. the cost OF threshing
being estimated at $1,2s750. The cut.
ting and bailing for the season viii
amount TO s6S9 the total harvesting
expenses being S1.97650
From the sale of hay and seed, :
revenue OF S12,355 will be derived
from 1870 acres. or at the rate OF s79.75
net per acre.
The remarkable feature Of this yield
is that no fertilization has been prac.
ticed in the dozen years that this al.
falfa field has been bringing riches
to its owner. The stand is yet in per
feet condition.
Mr.. White formerly rented the al.
, falfa field at $40 an acre. but this
year decided to care for the field on
his own account When his plans
are completed. and he succeeds in
planting the farm OF zoo acres to this
marvellous Oklahoma forage crop. he
probably will be the leading alfalfa
grower OF the state. If not OF the
nation.
