Onions Good Crop
for Small Garden
Staple That Should Be Con-
sidered for Summer and
Winter Use.

Onions are one of the most generally
grown garden crops of the whole list
and yet very few gardeners produce
more than enough for green onions in
the spring, and possibly a few mature
onions for winter use. This is due
largely to the fact that gardeners are
in the habit of going to the seed store
and buying a quart of onion sets,
planting them and calling the job
done. As a matter of fact, there are
onions for almost every purpose and
those that mature at different times
of the year. First, the little multi
plier or top onions can be planted in
the fall and in cold sections given a
little covering of straw during the
winter. Farther south they will need
no protection whatever. These are
ready for use as green onions just as
soon as the first warm days of spring
arrive and later produce sets to be
planted the following autumn. Then
there are the Old-fashioned potato
onions which multiply by division Of
the bulbs. These can be planted in
the fall or in the spring as desired,
and are used both as green and as ma
ture onions. They are very mild in
flavor and Of excellent quality.
Bermuda and Spanish onions can be
grown by sowing the seed in the hot
bed and transplanting the sets to the
open ground when they are about the
size Of a slate pencil and the soil is
as new" onion culture. There are a
number of standard varieties Of regu-
lar summer onions such as Silver Skin,
Yellow Globe, Red Globe, Prize Taker,
Japanese, and so on, that are suitable

REsEEDINe LAWNS

If you haven't reseeded the lawn,
you must get busy at once. There has
been enough growth of grass now to
show you clearly those bare and killed
out patches. Make up your MINI that
grass will not grow on these bad spots
unless you plant seed quite generously
in the barren spaces and enrich the
soil with fertilizer. Sheep manure
(pulverized) is particularly good for
this purpose.

New Albany Man Says Elliott
Promised immunity,

Before disposing Of the McCray

up the cases of Leo Burway, alia1
Robert Lambert, of New Albany, anil
Charles Shaw of Livonia, in Federal
Court.

witness in the jam case" two yeara
ago involving residents of southern In

with conspiracy to transport stolen
motor cars in interstate traffic, en-
tered a plea of guilty to the charge.

He was given a two-year sentence at

He told the judge. Homer Elliott,
United States district attorney, and
Alexander G. Cavins, assistant, had
made him promises of immunity for
his testimony. Judge Anderson then
ordered him held by the marshal and
insisted that he produce the letters
he said were at Kentucky penitentiary.

VALUES OF HOGS
GA|NFVE CENTS
Market Shows Some Strength
at $3.50.
Hog Prices nav by Day

Some added strength was given the
hog market at the local live stock
yards today and trading was accom-
plshed on a scent higher basis. All
good hogs were moving at the $3.50
level as compared to Tuesdays aver
age price of $7.45. Several choice
lots brought the days top quotation
of S755. The Producers Association
sold on the early market at $3.50!
After this a few scattered sales at
the same level trading came to a halt.
However, Kingan entered the market
actively for 5000 hogs and established
the price at the half mark. Demand
of outside accounts was fairly good
and want from all sources promised to
be great enough TO effect an early
clearance of the yards. After the slow
getaway. trading progressed satlsfac-
torily. Sows remained at the same
level Of the past several days and
the average smooth light variety was
selling around $675 with choice head
commanding somewhat over this fig
ure. Ordinary roughs brought from
S6.25 to $3.50. Pigs weighing 100
pounds and upward brought 1915 to
81 and a few isolated sales were made
at a higher price Truck division hogs
commanded a sight premium today
and the bulk sold at $7.55. One lot
Of choice red hogs weighing 200
pounds in this division brought $3.50.
Estimated number of truck hogs was
200 with 10000 the total number Of
fered for sale. Holdovers were 282.
Cattle were sold on a somewhat
strengthened market and trading was
on a more settled basis than has been
the case for several days. Prices were
quoted steady with Tuesdays decline
of 25 cents for most classes. Top for
ordinary good steers is now considered
at $10.75. although a steer Of the right
quality might still bring $l1. Heifers
are in poor demand as the result OF
large receipts. Good cows found a
ready sale at prices considered more
steady than those for other classes Of
cattle.
Fifty cents upward was the price
trend in the calf market. All good
stock moved at $3.50 to $40, as com
pared to Tuesdays bulk sales at So
to $3.50. The market showed signs
Ct strength, and although some choice
Neals brought $40 Tuesday there was
a rather large number OF good veals
moving at this figure today. Re
celpts, 500.
Sheep and lamb quotations held
generally steady with the exception
Of a 50-cent price trim in the wooied
sheep department. Receipts at 90
were hardly enough to set all-round
values.

SAY BEER WOULD
STRENGTHEN LAW
Vets Outline Argument for
Changing Amendment.
Times Washington Bureau.
1872 ActC York Ape.
WASHINGTON, April 29.--As hear

WASHINGTON. April 29.-As hear
ings drone away before the House
judiciary Committee on fifty-nine So
called beer bills" which would sub
stitute 2.75 per cent for the u of l
per cent In section l of the Nolstead
act, there sits in place of dry Andrew
Volstead, as chairman of the commit
tee, one George s. Graham of Penn
sylvania, an out-and-out wet.
OF the rest of the nineteen members
of the committee, some twelve are
ranked as dry. in favor Of the Vol
stead act The vets are trying to
show a majority of the committee
members that the present law would
be strengthened. rather than weak
ened. by permitting the sale of 2.75
per cent beer. Their argument:
Being unable to purchase mild
beverages at the present time, great
numbers of people are driven to pat
ronizing bootleggers. Give the peo-
pie a chance to buy good beer at a
reasonable price and they will no
longer take a chance on the high
priced poison dispensed by bootleg
gers.
Thus. at one stroke. the 'unrea-
sonable' feature OF the Volstead law
will be removed and the support of
the entire public will be enlisted in
support of a measure which now is
held in almost universal contempt"
Among the organizations advocat-
ing this change in the law are the
American Federation of Labor, the
Constitutional Liberty League, the
Moderation League of New York and
the Association Against the Prohibi-
tion Amendment
The fifty-nine bills are Identical
They are all introduced because that
number of Congressman had promised
their constituents they would advocate
real beer legislation.

WHEAT SAGS, WITH
OTHER GRAIN HIGH
Late Buying Causes Some
Recovery,
BIZ United Financial

BIZ United Financial
CHICAGO. April 3O.-Wheat sagged
on the board of trade today despite
higher coarse grains.
Wheat ruled erratically. Some late
buying by shorts caused a moderate
recovery. Buying, however, was cur
tailed by changing operations.
Reports of some export business
lacked confirmation and Winnipeg
failed to reflect this condition, closing
with a little change. Weather and
crop news was favorable.
Buying by earlier sellers created
strength in corn and resulted in a
higher close. There was no reason for
this buying, other than prospects or
some export business. Demand was
slow all around.
Oats gathered strength from corn
and some buying by cash interests. A
weak undertone persisted in pro
visions during the entire session and
prices closed without much change.

Studebaker Forced Into New
Low as Result of
Showing,
The WALL STREET JOURNAL

NEW YORK, April O.-Speculative
interest in today's market converged
largely on the subject of industrial
earnings with two representative cor
poraions, I. S. Steel and Studebaker,
reporting the results of their opera
tions for the first quarter of the year,
other considerations were completely
overshadOwed. Studebaker was forced
into a new low ground for the year as
a result OF the UnfayOrable compari-
sons in the showing for the initial
three months made with the CORE
spending period of 1928. Profession
ais made the shriukage the basis for
an attack on the whole industrial list.
Judge Garys remarks on steel condi-
tions and the outlook for credit con-
ditions brought to some professionals
only the thought that the steel bust
ness had slumped off about 10 per
cent in March and another 10 per cent
in April.
