cared for Mrs. McNally. salu INA.
The latter would not let ANYONE
handle the babies.
The fact that the twins were al
ways kept in a darkened room
aroused suspicious of neighDors'
Mrs. Sphirmer testified. When
she smoke to Mr.. McNally about IT,
SIC continued, he gave her per-
mission to visit the home in the
absence of the wife. The witness

on the led occupied by the twins
she saw two large dolls.
Called TO McNalIy Home.
The nurse said that she was
called to the McNally home two
days after the twins were said to
have been born.
"Mrs. McNally would not let me
attend the babies" the nurse testi-
fled. "She always told me they
were weak and that their eyes
were too weak for light. One day
i. went to her bedroom and saw the
nose of one of the babies bleeding
Mrs. McNally was wiping away the
blood. / saw only the face. Mrs,
McNally took off the baby's dress,
which was stained with blood, but
she did not give it to me to laun-
der.
II frequently saw her nurse
them. At least she appeared 10
nurse them"

titled that after McNally came &c
him and wanted him to arrest MS
wife for murder, he questioned the

was to be born.
Arranged the Doll Hoax.
Mrs. McNally. in statemen
yesterday, declared that an opera
tion previous to her marriage hat
made it impossible to give birth u
n child, and that she had arranged
the doll hoax in an effort to APP
pease the paternal desires of hel
husband.
When Mrs. Griffith. who acted
as nurse for Mrs. McNally, wa
asked If The had anything agains
Mrs. McNally," she replied:
well, it makes me mad to hav
her say she had dolls when know
she had twins"
Makes you mad?"

with dolls makes me feel foolish.
You mean it hurt your reputa

dolls?"

retorted.

Automobile a Modern Farm
Convenience.

"Fewer automobiles and more
work." is the remedy often suggested
for the farmers troubles by some per-
son whenever a group Of men assem-
BILE and enter into the discussion OF
economic questions. Just why a far
mer is not entitled to an automobile
the same as a man in the city, if he
wants n and can afford it, is never
explained. If the facts were known,
probably a greater percentage of au-
tomobiles on the farm are fully paid
for than in the city, but casting that
Feature to one side, just ask yourself
the question: Who needs an automo-
bile most, the farmer or the mar in
the city?
The man in the city can ride to his
Office or work for the small sum of a
nickle or 6 cents, as the case may be.
Neighborhood stores r convenient,
and if not, he a secure delivery OF
telephone orders almost any time of
day. He has little need for a car, or
at least could do very well without
one. But the farmer, living several
miles from town, finds an automobile
an economy. He has no other means
Eof transportation for himself and
family except the horse, which is not
always available in busy seasons, and
a time killer under any circum-
stance. He needs a car. If any man is
Justified in making a sacrifice to get
one, it is the man in the country. Be-
sides the farmer pays his share to-
wards good roads and is entitled to
use them. They were constructed, II
we are to believe the good roads pro-
moters, more for the use of the far
mer than forS the JOY riders in the
city. Let every farmer who can afford
lit, get an automobile. 1t will save him
hours of time, bring his neighbors
closer to him, permit him to give his
family more pleasures and increase
the attractiveness of life in the
country. The nan who would deny
the farmer an automobile is living in
the past. He needs to m%odernize his
lideas.-Farm and Ranch.

PROHIBITION.

"Yoiu people in the United States

from 'd%rink-cursed countries see the:

To illustrate the impression the re-
suits of our law make upon foreigners

GOVERNORS SEND MESSAGES
TO THE WORLD.

In preparation for an aroundFhe-
world tour in which he was to REPRE-
sent the Federal Council of Churches
in the interest Of international peace
and Christian evangelization, Fred b.
Smith, the noted evangelist, wrote
letters to the governors of all thc
states. He asked them two questions
first, whether the people of their
respective commonwealth believed in
disarmament and world peace, and
second, whether they themselves re-
garded prohibition as a permanent
American policy. All of the forty-six
governors who replied gave an affirm
alive answer to the first question, and
all but one an affirmative answer to
the second answer. The sole excep-
tion on the latter point was Governor
Edwards of New Jersey.
The reply of the governor of
Maine, given herewith, indicates the
tenor of the letters received in ans
wer to the request:
GAS you travel about upon your
tour of the world / shall be glad to
have you take this message from the
governor of Maine to your audiences
wherever you are" wrote Hon. Per-
cival P. Baxter, chief executive of
the Pine Tree State. ~ have always
been a believer in state and national
pl ohibition," continued the governor,
"and desire to be. placed definitely
upon the side of strict, honest and i'm
partial enforcement of the Eighteenth
Amendment.
"The state of Maine for sixty years
has stood Loyalty for prohibition. 1t
has endured the abuse and been
tempted by the gold of the liquor in
~terests of the nation: The state, how
ever, has remained mistaken in it's
faith, and today stands before the
action of its sister states in adopting
national prohibition. Those within
the state who in the past sought to
betray it, are now discredited and are
heard from no more.
"The men of Maine remain true to
this great cause and the women give
to it their overwhelming approval. I
believe the day is close at hand when
our whole nation will be as firm in
the faith as is Maine, the pioneer pro-
hibition state"

Feeding the Baby Chicks.

SOlieSS, ApIll o.. GSSe
ing the young stock is perhaps n
of the most important factors in poul-
try culture, for if we do not properly
nourish the chicks we can not expect
to develop them into good flesh! nor
can we expect to keep up their health,
vigor and vitality, if we %underfeed,
overfeed, feed unbalanced rations or
feed anything but absolutely clean
feed" says N. R. Mehrof, Extension
Poultry Specialist.
Just as soon as the chicks are
moved to the brooder there should be
some fine chick grit and fine oyster
shell on the hover floor. This is used
as their first feed because it puts
their gizzards and digestive systems
in condition to handle the hard, solid
feed that they will eat from then on.
The chicks should. be fed sour skim
milk just as soon as they come in the
brooder. This can be put in little
vacuum water fountains. Natural
sour milk and buttermilk are good,
and if they are not at hand semi-sol-
id buttermilk diluted at the rate of
one part Of milk to 6 or z parts of
water. The Tactic acid in the sour
milk acts as an intestinal disinfectant
cleaning their digestive systems and
getting them in good working order.
It is also very ~palatable and appe-
tizing.
A very light feeding of rolled oats
should be given at noon of the first
day, Gust what they will eat up in
a few minutes) /; and in the afternoon
a feeding of a chick-scratch ration.
Perhaps it would help to feed on a
Single or cardboard until they learn
what and where the grain is.
First Week in the Brooder.
1t is important to feed the chicks
often and in small quantities at a
time. Feed the chicken-scratch ra-
lions four times a day sparingly to
make them clean up what they are
given each feeding and to make sure
that they are hungry when the next
feeding comes around. Continue to
feed the sour skim milk, but in addi-
ton have a supply of clean fresh wa
ter. From the fourth day on, put
wheat bran before the chicks in open
hoppers. Leave it before them a short
time the first day, but as soon as they
have become accustomed to it, leave
it before them constantly.
When the wheat bran is added re-
duce the feeding of chick scratch to
three times a day. Scatter the grain
in litter so that the chicks will be
compelled to exercise. Keep only
clean litter on the floors. Continue to
feed the milk. Have a supply of fine
grit and oyster shell.
Another important part of baby
chick feeding is the use of green
feeds. These can be supplied in the
form of lettuce leaves, %sprouted oat
tops, finely chopped vegetables,
beets, etc.

uted to hasten MATURITY
Frequent, shallow cultivation until
the greater part of the crop Is set.
Then less frequent cultivation. The
later cultivation should be the skip
middle method, taking alternate mid
dies and with the next cultivation TAX
ing the ones that were skipped. This
keeps half of the roots of the cotton

less shedding, more squaring and bet
ter protection of the cotton bolls.
KILLING THE WEEvlL.
Is the poison method Of killing the
Weevil practlcai7
II Is, but It Is a particular method
which many farmers may fail with
when they first try 1t, because they
are not In the habit Of doing p~articu-
lar things right the first time.
II the rules for poisoning r ad-
hered to strictly the cotton, farmer
will get the most complete and eco,
nomic control Of the weevil Of any
method known.
Any one contemplating the use of
poison should get complete instruc-
lions from the Government Boil Wee,
vii Station, Talulah, LATHE State
Entomologist, or agricultural col
leges.
Does It pay to Kill the weevlIs on
the young cotton stalks before squares
begin to form?
If the weevils come out Of winter
quarters in large numbers and threat
en- to take all the first squares, It
is considered advisable to kill as many
of them as possible. Calcium %arsenate
sprinkled from a perforated can or
from a cheese bag on the young plants
is the most efficient and economical
method of killing the weevils on the
young plants.
1t is not necessary to apply the poi
son until just before the squares begin
to form.
Is II practical TO gather and destroy
squares?
II the poison method Is not used it
will often be found necessary to gath.
er and destroy damaged squares that
contain immature weevils, in order to
have assurance of any sort Of a crop.
Picking up squares is not as efficient
nor as inexpensive as poisoning, but
If thoroughly done a fair to good crop
can be obtained.
ls poisoned molasses applied to cot
ton effectIve7
Poisoned molasses or other poisoned
sweets will kill some boil weevils dur.
ing dewless nights, but the poisoned
sweets will kill honey bees and other
sweet loving insects that are needed
to carry from flower to flower the
pollen that causes them to fruit. Cal.
cium arsenate dust is more efficient
and less expensive to use where poi
soned molasses are effective.
Are boil weevIl traps practIcaI2
A farmer tries a trap more
than once. The government has tried
all kinds and recommends lone.
Can the say of cotton be poisoned
so as to poison or repeI the Weevll?
The Creator has given all plants the
power to absorb through their roots
plant food and to resist all that is not
plant food. If plants could not resist the
poisons in the soii we might run a
risk Of being poisoned every time we
eat a potato, apple. berry, etc.
Can the boil weevlI be driven from
cotton by offensive odors?
The boil weevil has not yet been
successfully combatted through its
breathing organs. 1t has been sub.
jected to the most intense war gases
without results.
