R0bISCH VALVES
EXAMINATION ON
MURDER CHARGE
Self Confessed Slayer of
George Pambogo Is Re-
manded Without Bail.

Otto Robisch, charged with the
killing of George Pambogo, the Indi-
an, of Lexington, Okla, waived pre-
liminary examination yesterday aft
ernoon before Justice of the Peace
C. C. Brewster, and was ordered re-
manded to the county Jail without the
benefit of bail, to await the action of
the grand jury.
Robisch was arrested at Little Rock
on information furnished Constable
Dick Allnut there by Constable Clint
Green of this city, and was returned
to Pine Bluff the day following the
recovery of Pambogo's body from the
river here. Several days later
Robisch was returned to Little Rock
by Sheriff R. H. Williams as pre-
cautionary measure, and during his
stay in the Pulaski county jail, he is
said to have prevented another pris-
oner, Leslie Gray, also of this city,
from committing suicide by hanging,
and later to have attempted to COM
nit suicide himself.
Robisch is alleged to have made a
full and free confession to the Off
GERS, in which he said he killed Pam
bogo by striking him over the head
with an iron bar, throwing the body
into the river after rifling the cloth
ing. Robisch insists he obtained
only 81 from Pambogo's clothing, al
though the officers are confident the
Indian had a considerable sum Of
money on his person.

sandy loan. There are only a few
thousand acres of these soils in the
country. 1t is most extensively de-
veloped in the northwestern parts of
the country. Most of it is found on
stream slopes and divides. Where
the surface is more rolling the soil
is inclined to wash and should be
planted to winter cover crops. The
drainage is good. The soil is easily
cultivated, on account of it's sandy
nature, yet the subsurfact material
and subsoil are heavy enough to abb
sorb and hold good supply of mois-
ture. Deeper blowing is needed in
order to mix some of the subsurface
sandy clay material with the surface
soil, so as to increase it's absorptive
power.
The very fine sandy loan of the
Ruston series produces good yields
of cotton, corn, and oats, and, like
the Ruston fine sandy loan, is par
ticularly suited to small fruits and
certain tree fruits. Peaches and
plums do we'll and are grown to a
small extent.
The YahOla Clay.
The Yahola clay is a chocolate
brown to a dingy chocolate-red clay,
covering about 10000 acres. It oc-
cures mainly in narrow strips close
ly associated with other types. 1t is
we'll drained and productive.
The Susquehanna Series.
The Susquehanna is the only other
series occupying a relatively large
aggregate area in the county. In it's
three phases, fine sandy loan, very
fine sandy loan, and clay loan, this
type covers. about $4,000 acres. The
fine sandy loan is grayish in color,

prevailing one-crop system. Thls Is
due in part to the dimlnution OF the
organic-matter content, the supply Oh
this constituent being very low in this
soil, even in it's virgin state. The
physical condition of this soil can be
materially improved by growing
deep-rooted crops, such as cowpeas
and SOY beans, to loosen the suDsur-
face material and add organic mat
ter. In many places deep plowlng
will improve the texture by mixing
some of the heavy subsoll material
with the soil. -,
OF the clay loan only very small
areas are in cultivation. Its best
use probably is for pasture, although
oats and hay can be grown success
fully.
other Soils.
The other soils of Jefferson coun-
ty have a relatively restricted de-
velopment. The Ochlochonee very
fine sandy loan and silt loan both
are practically all in cultivation and
produce good crops of cotton, cora,
and forage plants.
The Lufkin silt loan is graylsh on
the surface, somewhat mottled with
yellow or russell brown. 1t occurs in
scattered areas throughout the up
land region of the county, the larg-
est single areas lying south OF Pine
Bluff. Very little of the Lufkin silt
loan is cultivated. Itsfvalue for graz
ing could be greatly increased by
