THREE BROTHERS TO
PAY DEATH PENALTY
Final Chapter In Santa Rosa
Tragedy
TO AVENGE OLD COUPLE
Execution of Roberts Brothers Will Be
First Hanging Of White Men Ever
Known in Santa Rosa County.
Fla.

The final chapter in the Santa Rosa
tragedy, involving the life of five per-
sons, was begun at Tallahassee when
the supreme court announced that it
affirmed the decision of the lower
court in sentencing Jim, Brady and
Percy Roberts to the gallOwS for the
murder of Mr.. and Mrs. L. A. Wy
man in the summer of 1915. The
governor will now set the date for the
execution.
The crime is still fresh in the
memory of those residing in Santa
Rosa county, where residents were
Mortified when the details of the das-
tardly act were uncovered. Mr. and
Mrs. Wyman, parents of Captain Wy
man, of the United States army. came
to Florida from Illinois to spend the
rest of their days. They were sup
ported by their son and pension re-
ceived by the elder Mr.. Wyman from
the government. 1t was reported that
they had money and the three brothers
plotted to kill them and get it.
1t developed at the trial that they
went to the Wyman home one night
and shot the old man to death in sight
Of his wife and then killed her. They
were both about so years Of age.
When the Roberts brothers are ex-
ecuted it will be the first hanging of
white men ever known in Santa Rosa
county.

TICKS REDUCE VALUE OF CATTLE

A tick infested Florida steer which
had survived the ravages of numerous
ticks during his two years Of life and
had reached the weight of about 400
pounds soliloquized on the futility of
trying to become a real beef animal.
Tick free cattle of my age are
more than twice as large as | am, al
though l have lsbered faithfully gath
ering grass and converting it into
blood to build large frame and fine
tissue in the hopes that some day |
might be large and fat and my finish
would be as choice steaks and roasts
to tickle the appetites of particular
people.
THE United States Bureau of Ami
NAL Industry officials state that a l.
600 pound animal loses 200 pounds Of
blood year to the ticks, and | surely
am being bled for my full proportion
on the basis of my weisht.
Handicapped BY Ticks
Il have been greatly handicapped by
the numerous cattle ticks which have
lived on my blood and caused me
to remain thin, even when the sup
ply of pasture was plentiful. And
when the pasture was dry and the
forage was short for a few months,
could hardly gather enough energy
to continue life.
why does my owner permit the
ticks to take so much of my strength
and ambition when the ticks can be
eradicated so cheaply. / wish he
would kill all the blood suckers on me
and give me a chance to show what
/ can do in the way Of growth when
all of my food, which is converted
into blood, goes to increase my flesh
and bones.
81 feel like a piece of dried beef
right now, as there is so little blood
coursing through my veins. If |
could talk to my owner so he would
understand that the ticks are costing
him lot of money, l know he would
eradicate the ticks.
What a fine state this would then
be for we ambitious cattle.
Grow Fast In Tick-Free States
"One of those Texas animals which
was shipped in here this spring told
me that some fine steers are raised in
all of the tick-free states. He had
heard of 100 grade Hereford calves
out in Ness county, Kansas, which
sold for $35 each at weaving time,
which was about seven months old.
My, if | ever get large enough to
bring that much, l surely will have
blue ribbons on my horns.
"The new owner kept that bunch
of lucky calves on Buffalo grass, what
ever that is, for eleven months and
sold them for $65 apiece. know
those cattle men out in Kansas do
not let any cattle ticks live on their
stock
Il heard of Missouri farmer who
bought bunch OF beef calves from
his neighbors and fed them cotton
seed meal, corn silage and some
ground corn from weaving time until
they were yearlings when 40 of them
averaged $40 pounds each and brought
the top market price the day they
were sold in St Louis.
Some calves are born lucky, but
Florida calves seem to be born to
raise ticks all of their lives, and

"If live long enough | may weigh
as much as $50 pounds, and then my
owner will sell me to the packers for

stock brings, and when | walk into

This steer had the right informa-
ton about the low price obtainable
for ticky Florida cattle, as 148 head
of three-year-old steers averaged 622
pounds each ON the East st. Louis
market on July 18th of this year, and
brought $40 per hundred weight. The
same price was paid for lot of 48
head, which averaged $50 pounds But
81 head, which averaged only 400
pounds each, brought only $50 per
hundred weight, and a mixed lot of
stock numbering 1872 head, which ave-
ragged 420 pounds, brought only $40
per hundred pounds.
On the same market that day IS
head of yearling grade steers from the
corn belt, averaging 922 pounds each,
brought $40 per hundred pounds, which
totalea almost as much money as the

steers brought.
