Efforts Made to Poison
Judge Prewitt's Cattle

Capt. V. G. Mullikin brought his
blood hounds to this city yesterday
TO assist in trailing the person or
persons who placed paris green in
the cattle fields on Judge Henry R.
Prewitt's farm Tuesday night. Sew
eral pounds Of the poison had been
placed in the field. and had been
found in eighteen or twenty piles in
the field, and in the lot in front OF
the residence. None of Judge
Prewitt's cattle had eaten any OF
the poison as they had been turned
into the field only q short while be-
fore the plot to poison them was
discovered.
The blood hounds trailed down
through the field to road on the
hack of the farm, where buggy
tracks were found and the trail lost.
AS yet no arrests have been made,
though officers are at work on the
case.

Wheat Yields not
Determined by Seed

The comparative ability of diff
ferent strains of wheat to give high
or low yields is determined more
largely by inheritance than by the
size and weight Of the seed, accord
ing to crops specialists. Weight per
bushel, which is determined almost
entirely by soil and seasonal condi-
tions, is over estimated in value by
many wheat growers as an indica-
ton of the ability of that particular
seed to give high yields. Kentucky
farmers in selecting seed for the fall
sowing, should select seed from high
yielding strains of pure bred wheat,
even though it is light in weight, in
preference to heavy seed from mon
grel strains, according to Ralph D.
Kenney, crops extension specialist
from the College of Agriculture.
Experiments whicr have been con-
Quoted over long period of time to
determine the yielding qualities of
large, small and unscreened wheat,
show that large seed has no advant-
age over the other two grades as far
as increases in yield are concerned.
Wheat is self.fertilized plant and
unless mixed with other varieties by
mechanical means, such as thresh-
ing machines, or rendered impure by
noxious weed seeds, will inherit the
same yielding ability in comparison
with other varieties as it had when
first introduced into new terri
tory. In other words wheat does not
"run out"

Winter Cover Crops
Boost Crop Yields

One of the important results TO be
obtained by growing cover crops is
the increase which is gained in
yields of crops grown year after
year on the same soil, according to
experimental results cited by crops
specialists from the College of Ag-
riculture in showing the Importance
of this crop. In one experiment,
where corn was grown on the same
land for six years in succession and
crimson clover was seeded each fall
to plow under in the spring, the
yield of corn was IL bushels more
an acre than ON similar soils where
no cover crop was grown. When
rye was used as a cover crop an
average increase of 3.6 bushels of
corn an acre was obtained for Is
years in comparison with the yield
from similar soils on which no cover
crop had been seeded.
The Mt. Sterling advocate., 1921-08-11
Several Points Decide
Quantity Of Stone

Farmers who are planning to use
limestone thsi fall can best de-
eide the question of how much to
apply by considering the cost of the
stone, distance from the railroad,
the type of soil on their farm and
the crop to be grown on the field,
according to suggestions made by
soil specialists at the College Of Ag-
riculture. As a general recommends
tion two tons an acre is the proper
amount to use. As little as 500
pounds of Underground limestone
may be helpful in getting stand
of clover and as much as four tons
an acre may be necessary in order
to grow alfalfa successfully.
When stone is cheap it should be
used heavily, not only because it
viii do more good, but also because
it will pay to have the soil well lined
while the price is reasonable. Only
a light application is practical when
the hauling distance is as great as
ten or fifteen miles. 1t will be more
profitable to put 1000 pounds an
acre on 20 acres of wheat in order
to secure a stand of clover than TO
put the ten tons on only two acres.

Druggists Liable

Louisville, August g. Druggists
in Kentucky who sell patent medi-
eines which have been advertised by
itinerant medical companies From a
wagon or other place in the street,
where the companies state that they
themselves do not sell the medicine
advertised, but name the druggists
from whom it can be obtained, le-
gally are liable to be regarded as
members of the travelling troupes,
and as such are subject to prosecu-
ton, Elwood Hamilton, attorney for
the State Board of Health, has in
formed the board in an opinion pre-
pared at the request of DIR. j. N.
Mccormack, director of the Bureau
of Sanitation.
The opinion quotes the provision
of the statute which declares that a
druggist "becomes personally liable
for the statutory penalty if he per-
mits one who is not a registered
pharmacist to vend medicines" and
states that, for the purpose of pros
ecution il would not be necessary to
show that the articles were delivered
to the offending druggist by the
company if it could be shown that
the articles we're sold by the drug
gist and that tn edruggist and the
itinerant company had a mutual in
terest in the sale.

Youth Kills Father
Later Confesses

John Shumaker, 81, farmer liv-
ing near Kiddville, Clark county,
was placed in the Clark county jail
Tuesday night, charged with the
murder of his father, John Shu-
maker, Sr., whose body was found at
the Shumaker home.
Placing Of formal charge of
murder against the younger Shu-
maker followed visit of county Of
ficials to the scene of the tragedy,
after which John and his two 19-
year-old twin brothers, Herbert and
Hobart, we're brought to Winchester
for examination. Shortly after ar
rival of the party at police head
ters, according to Sheriff H. Clay
Hodgkin and Deputy Sheriffs JAS.
Allen, and Dan Insko, the two boys
confessed that their elder brother
killed their father after a quarrel
over crops. Both admitted that they
witnessed the shooting.
Previous to about two weeks ago,
according to the story told by the
younger brothers at police head
quarters, John and his wife had
lived with their father. Trouble
arose over some crops, of (which
John claimed an interest, following
which the Younger John, with his
wife, moved to her mothers home in
Estill county, leaving the father by
himself. The brothers returned each
day to look after the chickens and
crops, it was stated.
The final dispute arose between
John and bis father when the father,
who owed money to a neighboring
farmer, made arrangements for the
neighbor to take the corn crop in
part payment of the debt.
On Monday morning the three
boys came over as usual and met
their father in the watermelon patch.
Nothing was said about the crop
until they approached the house. The
father went into his room and John.
Jr., secured shotgun from another
part of the house and went into his
fathers room from the front en-
trance, followed by the younger
brothers. The father refused to give
his son anything for the crop, say
ing that they had no agreement to
that effect. John, Jr.. then fired
twice at his father, killing him in
stantly.
Following the shooting the boys
left the house. leaving the body
where it had fallen, and went back
to their home in Estill county. Yes
terday morning they returned with
The wife of the elder brother. She
Immediately notified Sheriff H. Clay
Hodgkin.
AT the inquest held Tuesday af-
ternoon by George Rupert, magis-
trate of that district, all three of
the boys were present. They denied
that they had been near the house on
Monday, but upon being told by
neighbors that they were seen there
Monday morning officers placed
them under arrest.
Shumaker's bory was found Tues
day morning. Indications were that
the shooting had taken place Mon
day. A gun was found lying across
the bed in the room where the old
man was shot. Officers stated that
this was not the gun with which he
was killed and that the gun had not
been found.
LATER-Young Shumaker, yes
terday, after three hours grilling.
admitted that he had killed his
father, saying II killed him, but |
had to do it,"
No further statement was made
by the slayer, who is now in the

Lloyd's Reports Big Decline
Throughout World.

A decrease of 100000 gross tons In
world shipping Is shown in the returns
of Lloyd's Register of Shipping for the
quarter ending June 80 in comparison
with those for the quarter preceding.
The decline, it was pointed out yester-

riod since the autumn of 1919. when the
peak of construction throughout the
world was reached.
American shipping under construction
fell away almost 400, 900 tons during the
second quarter of this year. Figures on
British shipping on the ways show de-
crease of about 100000 tons. a quarter
of million tons loss is shown by other
countries combined. with the exception
of Germany.
The worlds total tonnage on hand at
the end of June was 100000. COM
pared to the 7.0S6,00O on hand at the
end of March.
Announcement was made yesterday
that James T. Milton, who has held since
1890 the post of chief engineer surveyor
