which, in a measure, caused the
police to suspect the former army

engineered the murder to get pos

The slip which caused the slayer's

actual murder that he had ap-

It was the numerals on an auto

thought it could not be traced as
easily as his own weapon. an army

THE SOUTH RECEIVES
MORE FOR ITS CROPS
THAN OTHER PARTS
1t Produced ~ Per Cent
OF The Country's
Yield

Several months ago the Manu-
facturers Record pointed out that
the South s proportion Of the val
ue Of all crops raised in this cour~
try last year was A per cent Of
the total. The marvellous wealtn-
producing power Of the agricul-
tural South is further emphasized
when enc remembers that this
section with approximately one
third Of the population and area
Of the whole country is able TO
raise crops the value Of which al
most equals one-half Of the total
crop values Of the entire country.
Another striking fact IN connec-
tion with this superb showing for
the agricultural interests Of the
South is that acre for acre this
section S crops are more valuable
than those Of other sections. Last
year the total area Of all crops i'll
the United States was 36S, 800 900
acres, 137,752,OO0 acres, or 81 PEI,
cent, Of which were in the South.
Therefore, the South with one
third Of the population and area
OF the United States produced or
only 81 per cent Of the country $
crop acreage ~ per cent Of the
total crop values Of the country.
This is indeed a tribute to tho
South S agriculture and is not ia
It's entirety due to the high price
received for cotton. for the value
Of the South s cotton crop last
year, including seed, was a little
more than $2,O45, 100000, as
against $5,O0O,OOO,OOO received
for its diversified crops. Only
about Sc per cent Of the total
crop area Of the South last year
was in cotton, and in the ten
states which grow more than "a
pr cent Of the cotton produced in
the United States miscellaneous
crops increased more than 25 per
cent last year and 22.4 per ce"

WOMEN FISHERMEN
MAKE HAUL
WHEN MEN FAIL
Big Herd of Seals Sighted
And Most of Them
Captured


Bay Of Exploits, n. F., June IL.
The women Of Tilt Cove are
the pride and the envy Of the
bay today. In a season Of failure
in the sealing industry, they have
scored a catch and kill Of size.
Wives and daughters succeeded
where the men Of the bay had
failed.
The ice was still running on this
gone far ou to find the seals that
follow tt. The wife Of the light
keeper on Gull Island saw signs
OF the herd on the ice, sent word
ashore to the women Of Tilt Cove
and marshalled them into a seal
ing crew.
They went in boats, armed with
clubs and gaffs, and climbing on
to the ice cakes set out to round
up catch. They found the seals
sprawled on all sides, and learn
ed later that they had struck the
main patch. the hope Of all seal
hunters.
The women went about their
work with vim and had captured
or killed 100 seals when exhaus-
ted and approaching nightfall
compelled them to cease their la
bors and make their catch secure
When the men came back they
were given the task Of ripping
