With an old gallows on the roof
of the New York Federal Building
is attached to conviction. Adolph
c rnelius Peterson, late master of
the American barkentine, Puaka, and
his son Adolph Eric Peterson, aged
IS. second mate of the vessel, are
fighting for their lives in the face
of testimony charging brutal mis-
treatment of the crew and the muir
der of AXel Hansen, on the high
seas.
The case is one of the most un-
usual ever heard in New York City,
trials of the kind being so rare that
Federal Judge Hough was under the
necessity of ordering special con-
struction of the old English dock in
which the prisoners must sit Tor
trial in accordance with the ancient
marine law covering the trial.
The Pedersons are charged with
having mistreated Hansel so brutal
ly that he jumped overheard to es-
was in the water in midocean he
grabbed the log line trailing be
hind the barkentine and pleaded with
master and the mate to save him.
The allegations charge that Peder--
son and his son refused to extend
rescuing him so that he drowned
in n1idocean begging for aid.
Under the terms of the old admi-
rally section of the English common
law, under which the men are to
be tried, a verdict of guilty would
mean that "they shall hang by the
neck until they are dead" The place
Of execution, unless some other au..
thority were to intervene, in case or
such a verdict, would be on the roof
of the old Federal building where
the enplacement of the old gal
lows still stands.

last week accompanied party ot
Arkansas to the peach belt around
Fort Valley and gave considerable
attention to methods of picking,
packing and marketing the peach
crop, which is now in progress. New

and with the assistance, of R. 6.
Schoffelmayer carefully looked into
sweet potato storage methods in the
vicinity of Boston, Barwick and
Moultrie, Ga. He expressed himself
as highly pleased with results, the
general loss of sweet potatoes in
storage in the government houses be-
ing almost negligible. or from one
to three per cent. The Texas meth
DDS have not resulted so fayorably,
in some instances as high as Is to
20 per cent of loss taking place
in certain types of houses.

The German government says that

REpAIR PASTURE FENCES

Advantage should be taken of the
first lull in farm work to inspect and
repair pasture fences. A little time
spent from time to time Throughout
the season in repairing weak posts,
driving an occasional staple may
save much trouble later when the
pasture becomes short and the cattle
are tempted by crops in nearby
fields. A strong fence discourages
cattle from attempting to break out,
make regular fence breakers of them.
If plenty of water and salt are pro-
vided and fences are kept in repair,
usually little trouble will be, expert
enced unless the pasture becomes
very short and the cattle are lured
by other fields.
