Says Lenient Judges
 Are Cause of Crime

New York. Nov. Il (UP)-An eight-hour day for judges as q remedy for turning loose unpunished criminals was advocated by Dr. Raymond Moloy, Columbia Unlver- sity professor and adviser to the state national crime commission.
 Speaking before the governmental research conference, which will close q three day session here to- day, Dr. Moley said lenlent judges and not sentimental iuries were more to blame for the slowness and laxity of the American legal sys- tenn.
 The few hours a judge spends on the bench are supposed to bc offset by his work outside, but any one who has been in the clubs they ire quent, knows who they do outside" he said. They arc playing chess and attending Czcchoslovak dinners. We have got to insist on eight hours a day at least on the par of our judges. IT. is not the machinery but activity within the machinery that we must speed up"

"A snake fight" Jones explained Ifs either e promotion stunt or 8 bald joke. I have handled snakes 30 years and know"
 Ignorance about snakes costs the country about 100000 year, Jones estimates. Farmers who kill non poisonous kinds are losing their best friends.
 These snakes live on rodents and other pests that destroy crops. They should be protected by law" he said.
 There are for that matter only five kinds of poisonous snakes in this country. They are the rattler, viper, adder. copperhead and cotton mouth. They have no redeeming traits.
 Tt is easy to tell the poisonous from the poisonous. The dan gerous kind has an unlimited num- her Of scales on his head and two sets of nostrils."

Memphis, Tenn, Nov. Il UP)- For the edification Of those innocent snake fight fans who prove Barnum was right. Cary Jones, known in cir GUS circles as the man who knows most about snakes, begs to say:
 1. Most Of the stories about fierce snake fights are pure bunk.
 2. After years watching snakes, I can truthfully say they like to live lin perfect harmony; this regardless Of their species.
 3. There are only two kinds of cannibal snakes in America, the king snake and the blue gopher and the only time they will try to eat others is when they are starved"
 Jones is known as Snake or" among the men who know snakes.
 He has watched the writhing creatures summer and winter and knows when they are sick or well by the color Of their eyes.

WHEAT YIELD HIGH ACREAGE
University of Delaware Tract at Mil
ford Gives Fifty Bushels To the Acre

According to reports coming to the
State Board of Agriculture through
its Bureau of Markets while the state
wheat yield this year may not reach
such tremendous proportions per acre
as it did last year, threshing that has
been going forward for mounth in
dicates much higher production than
the expected average of Is to 20 BUSH
els to the acre. An experimental tract
of the University of Delaware near
Milford yielded so bushels to the acre.
One of the Wilson farms near Dover
yielded As bushels to the acre. This
same tract last year produced 50 BUSH
els. Former Senator Oliver A. New
ton, president of the State Board of
Agriculture, threshed 49 bushels of
wheat to an acre on one of the plots
planted in wheat. According to DR..
J. F. Adams, pathologist of the State
Board Of Agriculture, there was less
disease this year and which resulted
in the heavy crop now being threshed.
Wherever the farmers planted and
cultivated scientifically they lost prac-
tically nothing from the dreaded
'bust" Those who didn't treat the
seed lost anywhere from / per cent.
to 54 per cent. of the wheat. Those
who planted late in the fall suffered
more than those who planted earlier
because of the wet weather that pre-
vailed late in the fall.
