HOUSE STANDING STILL UNCER.
TAIN

Washington, March 12-Despite
many conferences among leaders and
animated discussion of many propos-
ais for working out Democratic, Re-
publican or bipartisan control of the
incoming House OF Representatives
there are few signs that the plans
of either of the big parties or of the
little group of Independents will take
definite form until within a few days
of the meeting of the special session
April Is.
Most of the members have left the
capital with the impression that the
lines for the organization fight can
not be drawn even so much as a
month in advance because Of the shift
ing of strength due to deaths and the
uncertainties surrounding plans for
special elections, to fill the vacancies.
Republican Leader Mann, who will
be his party's candidate for speaker,
departed tonight after announcing
that he would not favor any trading
for Republican control and predicting
that bipartisan organization was mot
improbable"
The fluctating standing of the par
ties presented tonight the prospect
that the Democrats will have 215
votes and the Republicans PA when
the special session convenes. 1t will
require 21S to elect speaker. The
five so-called Independents holding
the balance Of power have been I'M
able so far to agree on a concertei
course but they will meet again just
before the beginning of the session.
In order to keep their strength up
to 215 the Democrats will have to
elect Democrat in the 18th New
York District where special election
is to be held April II, to choose q
successor to the late Representative
Conry. 1t generally is believed, how
ever, that the strong Tammany ele
ment there will have no difficulty ii
returning a Democratic majority. The
hopes of Republicans that Republi
can might be elected in New Hamp
shire to succeed the late Representa-
tive Sulloway, bringing the Republi
can total up to 215, disappeared toda!
when it was discovered the state stat
utes would not permit an election be
fore April 16
During the day Representative
Mann telegraphed the governors o
New York and New Hampshire urgin,
that special elections in the Conry ant
Sulloway districts be called as quick
| ly as possible.

HARRY THAW is HELD LUNATIC


Philadelphia, Pa, March 13-Harry

city, and under the law cannot be
taken to New York on requisition to
stand trial on charges of assaulting
Frederick Gump, Jr., High School
student of Kansas City, Mo. Thaw
will be kept in st. Mary's Hospital
here pending his removal to Penn
sylvania asylum.
The courts action was based on
the report presented today by lu-
macy commission which yesterday
took the testimony of Thaw and his
mother.
In announcing the conclusion of the
lunacy commission, James Gay Cor
don, counsel for Mrs. Thaw, on whose
behalf the lunacy proceedings were
begun, made this statement:
"Tha inquisition which met yester-
day and heard the case of Harry X.
Thaw, adjudged him to be lunatic
and the finding was today filed in
the Court of Common Pleas.
Judge Martin made the usual ap-
propriate order touching his person
and estate. Thaw is now in the GUS
tody of the sovereignty Of the State of
Pennsylvania represented by its Court
of Chancery and under the control and
protection of the court and laws of the
Commonwealth. This necessarily set
ties the question of his eXtradition and
rings down the curtain on that pro-
ceeding Mrs. Thaw and her family

may be dropped for public exploita-
ton. Thaw is now safe from harm tC
himself or others and the court will
hold control and guard him. Anything
with respect to him hereafter can on.

Paris, March 13-The American av-
iator, Sergeant Major Raoul Lufbery,

Lufbery discovered for the first time
that he was an American when he at
tempted to enlist with Pourpe at the

SORGHUMs AND MILLETS
BEST CROPS FOR HAY

IN the Southeastern States the sweet
sorghums, Sudan grass, millets and cow
rcaS are the forage crops best suited
for summer planting. The Transports
ton problem under present conditions,
premises to be a highly important one
It is very desirable for this reason that
farmers in the Southeastern States
should grow sufficient hav 10 feed their
work stock and other farm animals in
stead Of importing it from other see
lions of the country. BY doing this,
the United States Department Of Ag-
,iculture states they will relieve the
pressure on transportation agencies al,
release large quantities of marketable
hay for the use of the army.
The forage crops named succeed evc2
on the moderately fertile lands of tn,
South.
1t is not necessary, however, for
the cotton farmer to reduce his ac-
reage in cotton to insure himself of an
abundance of hayy for his own live
stock. Usually there is a large amount
Of untitled land in the South and if
this were utilized in the production of
forage there would be an abundance OF
hay to supply all home requirements.
One feature to be considered if SOU
thern farmers arc to produce their own
hav, is, the cost and scarcity of seed
for planting. In particular the price
of Sudan grass seed is so high that il
practically prohibits the seeding of
this crop for hay purposes. To a GER
tain extent this is true also of the cow
pea. On the other hand, seed of mil
lets and the sorghums can be obtained
at a much more reasonable price.
These, therefore, are recommended a.
the most satisfactory crops for provid
ing hay for home consumption in the
Southeast.
In order to conserve the seed supply
Of sweet sorghums il is advised that
the practice of seeding these sorghums
broadcast or in close drills be discon
tinued very largely for the present.
Sixty pounds of seed per acre are re-
quired where these crops are drilled or
and only five pounds if
planted in rows and cultivated. This
latter method requires more labor, but
the Yield per acre of fodder will equal
or exceed the yield of hay from broad
cast or drilled seedlings and a much
larger acreage can be planted with the
same Of seed.
