NEW LONDON LAD
SUFFERS INJURY

New London, July 20.-Orie Jacobs,
who for the past three months has
been attending a BARRIERS college at
Lincoln, Neb., met with very serious
accident recently. Mr. Jacobs had
been working with a fellow student
since the Fourth of July at Bennett,
Neb., small town about eighteen
miles from Lincoln. The boys decided
to go out in the country and watch the
farmers thresh. Young Jacobs was
standing close to the engine and the
engineer asked him to give the fly
wheel pull, and Jacobs did SO. The
throttle was wide open and as the
wheel started with full force, 1t caught
Jacobs arm in the wheel and threw
him over the engine. When picked up
he was unconscious, and his right arm
badly hurt. All the flesh from his ell
bow to his wrist was torn loose and
the bones broken in two places near
the wrist and the bones twisted cross
wise of his arm. An X-ray was taken
of the injured member at Lincoln and
it is thought the bones were properly
set, and that with careful nursing he
would get all right. He was advised
to come home and be as quiet as posi-
BILE. He expects to return as soon as
he is able.

spiracy to commit felony to kill the
girl" No further alleged evidence
was found and charges against Dr.
Winters. his wife and Cooper were
dropped.

IOWA APPLES TO De
MILLION BUSHELS
FRUIT IN MOST SECTIONS OF THE
STATE is ABOVE NORMAL
FOR THIS PERIOD.

] Ames, July 20.--Iowas apple crop
will yield only about 81 per cent of last
years crop, making a prospective hair
vest Of about a million bushels. That
is the careful estimate of the horti-
culturists of the Iowa agricultural en-
pertinent station who have just figured
over the reports gathered from all sec
tons Of the state by the weather and
crop service of Des Moines. The
grape crop promises to be about 80
per cent of full crop. Earlier danger
of black rot and anthracnose has been
practically eliminated in most sections
and the grapes are developing excel
lently.
The different sections of Iowa will
q last years crops:
Northwest u per cent, north central
IL per cent, northeast % per cent,
west central 81 per cent, central Al
per cent, east central 20 per cent,
southwest So per cent, south central
SO per cent, southeast SO per cent.
The fruit in most sections is above
normal in size for this period and with
normal rainfall from now on should be
good. Unsprayed orchards are badly
some localities with scab. The apple
and plum curculio have done consider
able damage.
This important fact stands out: Re-
ports show that the sprayed orchards
will, on the average, produce as much
or more fruit as last year. This In
dicates that the yield of the better
grades of apples will nearly equal that
of last year, especially if there be less
loss from drouth.
The Iowa agricultural experiment
station urges July spraying to combat
the codling moth, which Is the great
foe of apple production in the state.
In southern Iowa this spraying should
be finished by the middle of this
month; in central Iowa by about July
Fl; in northern Iowa, by about July
rs. For the codling moth the station
recommends a spray made by mixing
one pound Of lead arsenate paste Cor
one-half pound of lead arsenate pow
der) to each twenty-five gallons of wa
ter. The application should be
thorough.

of Katherine Winters to Florida and
thence to Champaign where it had
been buried. Hanmore and Davis were
given a minute description of the
chilG's clothing and person. Theodore
D. Brown, sexton of the cemetery then
was ordered to open the grave.
When the body was exhumed every
detail corresponded with the descrip-
ton it was said. Brown told the detec-
tives that he could identify the stran-
ger who brought the body to Cham
paign and he and the two men left i'm
mediately for New Castle. When the
body was first brought to Urbana in
April, 1913, it was given by the stran-

detectives said they had traced the
box containing the body to town In
Florida and found that from there 1t
had been shipped to Champaign, III.
The man who was transporting the
box about registered at various places,
it was said According to Davis they
had a complete record of all his move
ments.
Their description of the body was
accurate" said Davis. From the
PAPERS they exhibited and their know

are on the right trail The mystery
appears to be solved"
