GRUSOME FIND
MADE BY
NEGRO TRAMPs
Body of Unknown Negro,
Partly Devoured BY Hogs,
Found.
HAD BEEN DEAD
FOR SEVERAL DAYS.
Coroner Davis Visits Scene
and Has Remains
Buried.

The mangled and badly mutilated
body of an unknwn negro man, whose
Identification could not be establish
ed, was found Saturday afternoon
near a spring, about one hundred
end of Mr.. VIM. Turner's place, one
mile from Talbot Station.
Two negroes were riding in box
car on the fast freight from Cynthi-
ana, made the discovery. Happening
to look out of the car they espied in
a hollow near the spring what they
thought to be the body of a man,
around which, number of hogs were
roofing. Upon the arrival of the
freight at the Paris depot the negroes
notified Mr.. Claude Ratliff, who in
formed Coroner Davis, and related
the story as told by the negroes.
The official proceeded at once to
the spot indicated by the negroes, and
found the body in the position as
described by them. The remnants of
a pair of overalls and a blue shirt
torn into ribbons alone clothed what
was left of the body which had been
partly devoured by the hogs. At one
side was found a blue Jacket such as
workmen wear. No marks OF vio-
lence could be found on the body,
and the supposition is that the man
had gone to the spring to get drink
and ahd been overcome by the heat or
had died or heart trouble. The bround
around the spring showed evidence
of the body having been dragged
around a considerable distance. Moth
ing except a white handkerchief and
a few scraps of bread were found in
the pockets, and nothing whatever to
identify him. The hogs had deyoured
the entire lower portion of the body,
arms and head, and only the torso
was intact.
Mr.. Davis secured the assistance OF
Mr.. Turner and two of his farm hands
and after communicating with County
Judge Mcmillan, the mutilated re-
mains were buried on the spot.
Mr.. Turner and one of his men,
Mr.. Page, remembered seeing a
strange negro at the spring on Thurs
day evening, as they were hauling wa
ter to the field, and it is probable that
the mans body had been there since
that time.

Value of Oats

There is no better grain Tor feed
ing young ANIMALS than oats. They
are fairly rich in protein and con.
tains the mineral matters needed for
building up the bones. They are
not largely used in the South, be-
cause they are too hgh-priced and
they are high priced because the
yields made are small, The Yields
are small because they are sowed on
the poorest land, are either sowed
too late in the fall or in the spring
and are not sowed on properly pre-
pared lands. We know OF one
farm having $50 acres IN oats that
produced an average of fifty-one
bushels TO the acre. On that farm
the oat crop was profitable, and If
all oat lands in the South produced
such yields we could afford to feed
oats to our livestock. The Pro.
