TOWNSHIPS EMPLOY
EXPERTS TO TEACH
PRACTICAL FARMING

County Superintendent Williams is
heartily In favor Of the plan sug-
gested by Prof. z. NJ. Smith OF Pur.
due university. who was in the county
delivering addresses before farmers
meetings In Boston, Arlington and East
Germantown this week, whereby the
townships may employ supervisors to
conduct the work in agriculture.
Boston and Arlington townships have
adopted the plan and a supervisor
will be appointed for next year. The
state pays two-thirds of the salary of
the supervisor and the township pays
the other third. In order to secure a
supervisor at least twelve men in a
township have to sign an agreement
to attend the classes regularly for at
least one year. An arrangement has
been made between Boston and Alb
1ngtOn townships whereby these town
ships will go together on the plan.
Agriculture can not be taught right
in the township or district schools I'M
less this is DONE" said Superintend-
ent Williams today. "The plan should
be adopted by all the townships in
the county. Agriculture must be
taught in the field and it can not be
taught right in the class rooms out of
books. Women teachers, therefore,
can not teach the subject satisfac-
torily.'
At Boston, eleven men between the
ages of IA and rs, signed the agree
ment at the meeting Wednesday. The
supervisor will work all year.

INSTRUCTIONS RE-READ
TO KNAPP CASE JURY
after FUTILE BALLOTS

The Knapp case went to the jury at
$50 O'Clock last evening. after Judge
A. Lindemuth read the instructions.
In his instructions, the Judge informed
the iurymen that intoxicati0n, though
not q defense in itself. was competent
to be considered as q defense If it had
been proven that the defendant was SO
intoxicated that he was unconscious
Of what he was doing and consequent
ly would be unable to form an intent,
which was necessary for the state to
prove beyond q reasonable doubt"
1t is believed that this part of the
instructions was the part that caused
the disagreement among the jurors.
It was placed squarely before them
in both the arguments of Prosecutor
Keller and Attorney H. q. johnson
that the main point to decide was
whether or not Knapp was SO intoxi-
Gated that he was incapable Of having
any intent to kill his victim. Prose-
cutor Keller insisted that man that
was able to know where his revolver
was, was able to recognize Williams,
was able to walk out Of the place and
find his home, was also able to form
an intent to kill upon a sudden heat
of passion" He also went over the
evidence Of John Ulrich. Jake Rich
ardson and Dick ElvOrd in which they
said that Knapp, a few seconds before
the shooting, had said, "fll shoot >'.'
and insisted that a statement OF that
kind would not have been made by a
man who had no intentions OF shoot
ing. ,
The jury took several ballots before
supper time and after they returned
they deliberated until II o'clock. Bail
If Markley said this morning that they
took the first ballot this morning at
o'clock.
At 9 O'Clock this morning Foreman
Thollie Druley informed the bailiff
that it looked as If they would have to
have the court repeat the instructions,
for there was considerable dispute re-
garding several Of the charges. After
an hour and half Of further deliber-
alton, the bailiff was again called and
asked to inform the court that they
desired another reading Of the in
structions.
They took their seats in the jury box
at 1O:45 and the judge re-read the
charges. The defendant, his father
and brother Raymond, with his two
attorneys, were present in the room
during the reading. No remarks were
made by the foreman or any Of the
jurymen after the reading and they
filed back into their room.
Arch Knapp and his family were In
the court room all morning waiting for
soeae word. There was also large
number of people from Hagerjtown in
the court room expecting to hear
some decision from the jury.

AS soon as the weather permits, he
said, circular flower beds, nine feet
in diameter, set about four feet back
from the curb and twenty-five feet
apart will be laid from the arched en-
trance to the east property line.
These flower beds will correspond
with those which have been laid along

THE SMALL BOY AND
THE BIG PIE

When a very small boy starts out
to eat a very big pie results seldom
measure up to his enthusiasm.
He wastes more than he can as
simulate.
Advertisers Of products who at
tempt to cover the world at one
swoop are like the small boy.
The waste eats up their profits.
The logical advertising way is to
take up territory at time and to
cover it thoroughly.
And the logical mediums to use
are the daily newspapers.

How the Earth Cares for It's Own Heat

For the last eighty years the scientists of the
French Astronomical Institute in connection with
other scientists of Germany and England, have
been studying the natural heat of the earth-tbe
heat which does not come from the sun but from
the earth itself.
1t is a popular error that the earth derives all
its heat from the This is not true In fact the
French scientists say it is an open question as to
whether the or the earth furnishes the surface
of the globe with the most heat The preponder-
ance of evidence, at the present time, appears to
be in favor of the earth. The earth is still sus-
tanning itself through it's own internal heat, and
although gradually drawing nearer to the sun is
not yet mastered by it's heat.
The French state, as result of many examn-
ations of the depth of mines, wells and other dig
gings into the interior of the EARTH that the earth
is yet radiatng from within more heat for sustain
ing animal, vegetable and human life, daily, than
the at its enormous distance from us furnishes
the globe in years time. They say that the suns
present great function so far the globe is con-
cerned is to give light, but that in actual heat for
our own purpose it is not one-half the furnace the
earth is.
Those scientists state it to be their opinion
that hot and cold weather and varying changes in
climate are almost wholly due to variations of fhe
internal heat of the earth itself and not from the
sun. They speak of the earth as yet great fur
mace, radiatng heat of its own, and capable for
many ages to come of taking care of itself -Ex

In these days of turmoil between governments
and peoples and heated passions reused by con-
tentons it is refreshing to run across wholesome
anecdOte which displays the cOmmOnsense ideal
that the following clipping divulges:
Mr.. G.. w. Harris, who clerk in Lin
coins law office at Springfield. gave to the editor
of The Every Day Life of Abraham Lincoln an
interesting Renaissance of Mr.. Lincoln's pacific
and common sense way of conducting his business.
A crack Drained attorney who lived in Spring
field supported mainly by the other lawyers of the
place. became indebted, in the sum Of 81 so, to
wealthy citizen of the country The creditor, fail
ng after repeated efforts to collect the amount due
him, came to Mr.. Lincoln and asked him to bring
suit. Mr. Lincoln explained the mans conditions
and circumstances and advised his client let the
matter rest; but the creditors temper was up, and
he insisted on bringing suit Again Lincoln urged
him to let the matter drop, adding, ''You can make
nothing out of him, and it will cost you a great
deal more than the debt to bring suit
The creditor was still determined to have his
way, and threatened to seek some attorney who
would be more willing to take charge of the mat
ter than Lincoln appeared to be. Lincoln then
said We'll if you determined that the suit
shall be brought will bring it; but my charge
will be ten dollars" The creditor paid over the
money and gave peremptory orders that the
suit should be brought that very day
After his clients departure, Lincoln went out
of the office. He returned in about half an hour
with an amused look on his face l asked him
what pleased him and he replied. Il brought suit
against, and then hunted him up, told him what
had done, handed him half of the ten dollars
and we went over to the squire's Office He con-
fessed judgment, and paid the BILL" Lincoln add.
