shifting of evidence began. As each set of prints was found to disagree with the impressions it was returned to the owner, who could either destroy it or save it as souvenir. It was a sort of elimination contest with the guilty ones weakening as time went on and their prints were not returned from the police station.
 Culprits Confess
 The strain of waiting for the police to eliminate every one else but them selves finally told on the culprits, and they went and confessed. Then they disappeared in the direction of the Sunny South. The parents are to be charged a pro rata amount for the damages done to the walls, ceiling and, edibles of the school.
 And the police are smiling to them. selves at the "fingerprint test" Al- though they will not talk about it, the whole affair seems to have been more of a psychological test than any Ber- tillon examination. It was simply. case of making the guilty ones think they had left impressions, and given enough time to worry about it, they would do just what they did-cenfess. However, there'll be no more mid- night parties in the Westfield High uchoo1

to avoid parental wrath and the scorn of their fellow students at the high school. A fourth culprit, although there was no jam on his fingers or finger prints, is Edmund Gottlock, but his crime was of lesser degree and he is still attending classes.
 The fuss started several months ago, when the domestic science room of the high school looked as though a cy- clone had struck it when teachers and pupils arrived one morning. Catsup was splattered on the walls, and may onnaise, salmon, crackers and other edibles were scattered about the room. The place had all the earmarks of the morning after big night before. This happened again and when the fourth such party was staged, and discov- cred the following morning, on January 31, the boapl of education decided to thoroughly.
 The police of Westfield were called and found, sticky and gooey on the wall. gob of strawberry jam. Near by was a blab of catsup which had hardened overnight and also had some impressions. The police took these i'm pressions and then requested every one of the PA boys in the school to step up and volunteer to have their finger prints taken. They did so, and the

NEW YORK, March S.-Sherlock Holmez had nothing on the pylice of Westfield, N.

McVay Says March Should Be Busiest Month
 Getting Ground Ready For Seed

I use, such cuttings 1, in propagating other plants? M. sN
 Al. It is a splendid idea to cut back hardy hydrangeas when they become too tall and leggy. The branches re- moved may be cut into sproper lengths containing at, least three good eyes, two of which should go into the ground, the other above. They may be rooted in boxes containing either all coarse sand ort soil and sand mixed seems to be better. March is a good time for such work. < ''ss <

 A.. Remove the soil carefully .-or if you can, you may dump the entire plant out. After shaking away the soil take sharp knife and cut right through the center. Generally, however, no knife is necessary and the plant may be separated by hand. By all means use good fresh soil in re potting.

 A.. Second planting should be made right away. I would select for the sec ond planting some sweet wfinkled variety such as Thomas Laxton.

 A. Nitrate of Soda would certainly push them along, but only a very light dressing or. mere sprinkling of the salt should be applied and could be repeated in two or three weeks. Break up the soda as fine as possible and sprinkle on the beds when foliage is fingers over the plants to knock off any Smail partIcies thdt may rouge on the plants.

AMERICAN. FINDS
 WAY TO. GET IN
Banned From Function. For Lack Of Dress Suit, He Bor-
 rows Englishman's

PARIS, 7 March S.-(Byi Asso- ciated Press ).-Dress requirements for official functions in France are be- coming much stricter. This was brought home in a striking manner to an American newspaper correspondent, who recently tried to attend a. recep- ton by. President .AIillerand in the Elysee Palace clad in a tuxedo when the invitation stipulated full evening dress. x 4iSH ;. 1
 Until recently the "smoidng" jacket, as the dinner coat, is. known here, sui ficed for such functions, but this time the American. was turned back at the door. Surprised, but undefeated, the newspaper man waited around. In a few moments "a British, correspondent came out, properly arrayed.
 ..You leaving?" the American in- quired. *T
 Yes" said his English confrere. 2 ''Then let me have your. tail coat, !" the American unblushingly proposed.
 Certainly" the British journalist replied, whereupon the two went across the street to the nearest cafe, entered q wash room and changed vestments.
 The American returned to the Elysee Palace and attended the reception, sporting his newly, acquired social ac- coutrement as nonchalantly as though it were his own.

 Premier Poincare is showing the wear and tear of his struggle in parlia- mentsto put through the extra taxation program: He has, aged greatly in the last few weeks and shows great nery- ousness.

 When he interrupted the session a few days ago and asked, for a rest as bis voice had failed, Dr. Pinard, noted specialist, went to the premier's seat and remarked: .tMr. President little ruin ini milk, taken frequently, would do you a lot of good. r .S

The fertilizer problem is one that i'm l 1edtately confronts every one who un- l 4ertakes to plant anything, no matter | |whether it be a few plants, flowers or lohrubbery, kitchen garden sor the most imposing truck farm or, plantation, The great cost of fertilizer m6- eerial is becoming serious factor. in tho high cost of living and as far as the writer can see is going to con xinue. The discussion about the de- felopment of Muscle Shoals and other water power as a factor. in reducing the fertilizer bill is. overdrawn and is not fully understood by the masses. It. is true, of course, that the price of unit of nitrogen, the most expensive and necessary element for all plants, will be reduced, but it should be known that nitrates are not the only essential plant foods that must be used <to in- crease sail fertility. The phosphates of which the average plant consumes about five times as much as it does nitrates are big factor This material must, be mined, the chief source now being Florida, ground up and treated with 3ulphuric acid to render the material |tavailable. Then there is the item of lpotAsh salts for which we must inn
 
 known that for every unit of nitrogen, we must use unit of potash; hence the solving of the nitrate problem is not going to greatly reduce the ferti- lizer bill. IA
 Increasing Corn Production :
 It is gratifying to know that Ala bama farmers are determined to in- crease the production of corn. Many letters have reached the writer recent ly, making enquiries about what yari- cities would be best to use in order to increase the yields. & H The question of variety is really in1- portant and should be looked into. Many farmers will insist on early maturing varieties which is big mistake because he will generally receive northern or western. grown seed which, while early, are poor producers in Alabama. Na- tive grown or southern grown corn,. if properly bred up to uniformity, are the sorts to plant in Alabama. A gen eral mixture should never be planted. There are. number of southern pro life varieties, such, for example, as Mosby's, that are heavy producers and particularly that type bred to- two ears. There is also. a .large-eared prolific type of red cob, known as pay-master, which K is wonderful producer. There are some types of flint corn that are very valuable in the southern part of the state, where the corn weevil is so destructive. Besides the matter of seed, the. fertility of. the soil, liberal use of fertilizers and thorough cultivation, \ is essential. Finally, don't try to grow corn on poor soils.
