told Magistrate Cobb, in the York
VILE court, that he had been severely
beaten by giant bodyguard for
Clara Kfmball Young when he at
tempted to serve the actress with a
summons last Friday in the Hotel

The summons Rothcr attempted to
serve involved civil action by the
Hartman National Bank for $4,000
loaned upon a promissory note dated
February 3, last.
Armed with his sumomns Rother
went to room s25 In the Hotel Com
modore. where he said Miss Young
lived. He told the magistrate he pre-
tended to have a letter to deliver to
the actress, but when the door opened
a man about six feet three inches tall
and weighing more than 200 pounds
yanked him into the room and tried
to take away the summons.
He also charged that Miss Young
was witness to the act and said
that he only got away by his agility
and through the protection OF the
house detective.
Rother retained the summon, and
yesterday asked for a warrant chars
ing assault for his alleSs6 assaIlant.

But the spice OF Greenwich Village

HEMP TO KILL WILD OATS

Please send me full information
about raising hemp. Is it hard on the
land? Does it rid the land Of wild
oats? Please send the information
by return mail, as | want 10 plant
some if | can get my ground ready
for it."-Inquiry from F. c. p, Day
county, South Dakota.
Reply by DR.. Arthur T. Evans, assO-
ciate professor Of agronomy at State
college: Hemp is not generally con-
sidered to be hard on the land where
it is raised. If it is used for fiber
the plants are retted on the ground
and everything except the fiber may
be returned to the land directly. Con-
corning whether hemp will rid the
land Of wild oats, | will say We have
no information. However, records
from Wisconsin report that Canadian
thistles have been successfully com
batted by raising hemp. Hemp will
usually grow from 6 to II feet in
height unless the land is unfavorable.
When ii grows TO this height all vege-
tation underneath 1t is so perfectly
shaded that it can not exist. There
are records Of its even killing out the
Quack grass. Bindweeds and morning
glories, however, have been found to
exist successfully in it. l feel sure
