NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

Three ARE HELD IN
CHARGES OF MURDER

Asheville Citizen.
Following a search which lasted
from last Friday, Sherman Owen and
two sons have been arrested by the
authorities of Pennsylvania county
and are now held in the county jail
at Brevard, county seat of that coun-
ty, without bail on charges of kill
ing Wisdom Patterson. The tragedy
is said to have occurred last Friday
IN the GOster section, about fifteen
miles from Brevard, mar the Jack
son county line, and resulted from an
alteration over the alleged trespass-
ing of some hogs.
It is charged that hogs owned by
Owen trespassed on the property OF
which Patterson was tenant. The
land on which Patterson was living
as tenant is owned by George H.
Smathers, of Ashevilie, and M. Buch-
anan, of Sylvia. Following several
rows which they had over the mat
ter Patterson is said to have taken
up a hog belonging to Owen and
Mrs Owen cut the hog loose with a
butcher knife and the fight resulted.
The shooting attracted much at
tention in the section where the
parties live and it is possible that
Owen and his two sons, one of whom
is said to have fired the fatal shots,
will be brought to Asheville for safe
keeping.

S .30X10X4840x9x144 or $4,000
100000 worth of nitrogen over every
acre of ground and how the legumes
gather this in themselves made US
much interested.
Mr.. Hampton stressed the value
of the soy bean, saying that ton for
ton it for its fertilizing characteris-
tics alone is worth as much as sta
bic manure. He named the princi-
pie varieties.
The County Agent has many bull
letins on the soy beans and COW
peas. Call and get them.
Red and sapling clovers were en-
phasized both as hay crops and as
nitrogen and humus to turn under
Crimson clover was given
special emphasis as it is a wonder

easily threshed by failing.

now III Germany. Have been here
three months and l still hear words
OF good II ,tured banterin9 on who
won the War-spiels in which | have
rad many a slam to men who hap
pened not to be standing, gun in
hand, blowing Germans head off
when the eleventh hour rang out,
and some of these articles were aim
ed with stinging fire at the men in
the Medical Corps. In defence of
these comrades in service Id like to
say just word or two to the bows
who don't seem to know of Just
few things that happened that will
be of everlasting honor to the men
OF the Medical Corps. Through the
dark days of battle l have known
many Medical Corps men who went
into the teeth of shell fire on tho
lines to get wounded and gassed men
and bring them back to help and
first aid, and thus saved many a life
And night and day the boys in the
evacua ton and base hos pitfalls
worked over their pals. During those
days of dreadful darkness, from
truck and ambulance and train the
litter bearer kept up, his line of
march. Twelve, sixteen, eighteen
hours a day, his neck and shoulders
strained and swollen from carrying
his wounded comrades to help and
comfort. His work in dressing
stations can never be estimated.
The lads who barred their arms and
told the surgeon to go to it., giving
a portion of their life's blood to a
weakened pal, were Medical Corps
men who gave their blood as a
matter of course With fresh supply
OF warm, healthy blood coming into
his cold, weakening veins, the pulse
rate of the wounded boy would start
to thread through his body a little
stronger and he was saved. The
deeds that were witnessed of brother
ly tenderness when the hospital men
cared for helpless ones in pain, will
ever be great lessons of mans hu-
manlty to man. During the long
hours of waiting and especially
when the lights were growing dim,
the devotion to the sufferer was
wonderful to see. The pathetic
! Thanks, Bud, for standing by, I
won't be long now, and the strong
hand would just grip the white one
a bit more tight and answer Its all
right, Kid, don't worry would come
through jaws Of steel. as the watcher
saw the grip relax and the brave
young soul start out on its long
trail West.
Hold your heads high, men of the
Medical Corps, your work has been
well done. You were assigned to
duty where your country needed you
and now our task is almost over
me best reward and citation any
man can have is his conscience
telling him all's we'll. To the bows OF
the Medical Corps say may lust re.
ward come to you all who worked
beside me during the battle davs
and since. We all did our part in
this greatlwar that came overseas
You can ask those who have re-
turned for information.
