PLACE MURDERS ON KID BANDITS

admit the murder Of filling sta
tion operator at Tyro, Kan, early
in December, and are in Jail at In
dependence, Kan, under this
charge. They are accused by Fern
McNabb, fOurteen-year-old Kansas
City (Kan.) girl associate, as the
murderers here November 26 of
Price, a bakery wagon driver.
A second girl, Aletha Rush,
fifteen, Sioux City, Iowa, was ar
rested with Haldiman and Harley
The wonder is that this child
underworld has resisted arrest so
long. Accident and coincidence
helped the police. Except when
hopelessly surrounded with evil
dence and under arrest, none of the
scattered members has talked.
Even after the police had the
names of the gang, they sought
futilely for weeks to find them or
link them with contemporary crime.
Accused of Other Murders.
Some of the other murders for
which suspicion points to the gang,
according to B. H. Thurman. chief
of detectives, are the Staying May
10 of Irving Mallin, fruit store OPP
orator; Vincent Weber. deaf mute,
slain August Is, and John e. Rams
den, slain August IS.
1t has been difficult to trace the
perpetrators of these murders, be-
cause few witnesses could agree as
to their description. Now the po-
lice know Haldiman and his asso-
ciates used makeup and cork to
change their appearance. The
Mallin murderer looked like
negro to one witness, but another
was certain the slayer had white
mans hair. The Weber slayer
looked both young or old to diff
ferent witnesses; something about
his face defied description. The
police now believe the slayer was
made up. One man has been tried
and acquitted in this case, the
identificatiOns not being accepted
by the jury.
1t is quite plain that the victims
have been slain because they
thought their assailante was bluff
ing them; he was young and harm
less looking. Yet he shot at the
first sign of resistance, and he shot
straight. That picture fits Haldi-
man.
Fear of the rope in Missouri is
all that led Haldiman to admit the
Tyro crime. Chief Thurman says.

Producing Geese for
Market and Breeding

The number of geese that should
be permitted to mate with a gan
der varies somewhat with the pur-
pose for which the offspring are in
tended When the geese are bred
for the purpose of exhibition they
should be mated only in pairs, and
kept in mating yards until it is GER
tain they are mated. When geese
are bred for the purpose of pro-
ducing geese for market, the fe-
males and males may run in large
flocks from the beginning provided
the proportion of one male to
three or four females is main
tained. If allowed their own will,
all varieties of geese, except the Ca
madam, will mate in the proportion
of one male to three to five fe-
males. Rarely if ever will the
Canadian geese mate otherwise
than in pairs. Exceptions to this
rule occur, however, if Canadian
geese are mated while confined.

MODEL CITY SPRINGS LIKE MAGIC FROM RUSSIAN BOG

the transformation will be effected
in part at least.
Some people" the engineer said,
believe Russia is going too fast.
They doubt whether the Russian
worker, nodded in physical and
psychological habit by generations
of primitive hand labor in the
fields, can so quickly adjust him
self to the machine gait of modern
American methods.
Soviet officials dismiss this fear
with the declaration that the ma
chine will gear the worker. rath-
er than that it will have TO be
geared to the worker. This queS-
tion, involving the degree of sue
cess OF the great experiment, is
largely one of the adaptability of
human beings"
However efficient the workers
may prove to be. there is no doubt,
the Review of Reviews article
says. about the facilities for living
and working with which they will
be equipped. The factories, in
which it is understood the Ford
Motor company is not financially
interested, although it is giving
technical advice, are the last word
in modern American production
units. And the living quarters,
four-story apartments, are steam
heated, lighted by electricity and
fully American in every sense.

POULTRY FACTS

Place the egg on its side, not on
end.
Winter egg production is often
cut short by a limited supply of
water.
Run the incubator for "a hours
so as to be sure that it is prop
erly regulated.
Heated drinking fountains should
be standard equipment on all poul-
try farms where lights are used for
birds in winter.
Slight traces of dirt may be re-
moved by using steel wool, but eggs
should not be washed, as that will
injure their keeping qualities.
General purpose breeds seldom
lay enough eggs to pay for their
feed after two laying seasons.
They are not, as a rule, good breed
ers.
In using insulating board in
henhouse, it is necessary to put a
coat of plaster over that part of
it which can be reached by the
hens.
See that there is an outlet for
foul air located at the highest
point in the poultry house. The
opening should extend the length
of the house.
Approximately 25,000,OO0 dozen
eggs are exported by the United
States each year. Imports of eggs
not in the shell amount to approx
mately 25,000000 pounds.
Pullets must be kept in good
flesh if their egg production is to
be maintained at a high level:
Feeding a fleshing mash in addi-
ton to the laying ration will help.
Steamed or mashed potatoes
make a valuable addition to the
winter ration of laying hens. Six
to ten pounds per day for each
one hundred hens is as much as
may safely be used, however.
The law of the harvest is that
we reap more than we SOW. Dead
chickens make good fertilizer
they also make more dead chickens.
Moral: Burn your dead-chicken
and all other animals, including
rats.

Just Wasn't Interested Says
Father in Recalling FIier's
Boyhood Days

MaySville. Okla, July 8.-Wiley
Posts parents did their best, but they
just couldn't keep him down on the
farm.
The globe -circling flyer, whose dex-
ferrous handling of the complicated
controls of an airplane carried he
and Harold Gatty safely across the
treacherous Atlantic and the bleak
Siberian wastes, never could learn
such simple farm lessons as which
harness went on which horse, accord
ing to his father and mother, Mr.. and
Mrs. w. F. Post. who live on a 90
acre farm two miles north of here.
The farm is in an isolated section,
even without a telephone.
But a joyful CLEAN comes to their
eyes as they tell of. futile efforts to
keep Wiley on the farm, digging pota-
toes, calling hogs and hoeing corn.
For If they had succeeded, he would
mt be a world hero today.
Tried to Keep Him Down
He didn't have our blessings when
he started out in this flying business"
the father says. II did everything I
could to keep him out of the air and
make him stay on the ground az a
farmer.
He vas always a good worker here
on the farm, but he just wasn't inter-
ested. He could cultivate and pillow
and SOW, but lever until after I had
fixed everything for him. He never
could learn which harness went on
which horse OF how"
Post shook his head in a puzzled
way as If he couldn't figure out how
a smart son Of his could be so dull in
such a simple thing as that.
So. despite parental opposition,
Wiley went away to a mechanical
school and learned the intricacies of
machinery. The things he learned
there are in a large measure respon-
sible for his world flight.
Mother Doesn't Worry
Mrs. Post celebrated her 58th birth
day soon after her son started wing
ing his way around the world. She
refuses to become excited about his
flight.

I don't worry much about him any
more. I'm used to him." she says.
The Posts have no telephone, and
must wait for a courier to bring them
news of the flight.
Wiley began his flying career by
making parachute jumps when he
wasn't working in the oil fields near
Heldenville. That was about six
years ago.
"One time when he came home to
Maysville to make a Jump before a
big crowd Of farmers who had gath
cred for a cotton meeting, I told him
I wouldn't let him make the jump"
Mr.. Post recalled. Il just hid his
parachute"
When Wiley missed his chute, he
strobe into a cotton meeting in full
swing and demanded his father to go
out and find it.
- He raised the devil-but he didn't
jump Mr.. Post says with a chuckle.
Mrs. Post. who, according to her
husband, is the best chicken and hog
raiser in the southwest, wasn't so sure
her husband did the right thing by
hiding that parachute, and she
said so.
Injury Started His Career
The parents recall how an injury
in the oil fields furnished the funds
with which Wiley bought his first
plane. A piece of flying steel blinded
his left eye and the company employ
ing him paid him $4,000.
Wiley bought an old "crate" and
started transforming, the same way
in which so many other famous flyers
got their start. After three years of
this he became pilot for F. G. Hall,
wealthy oil operator, on flights to and
from Halls scattered holdings.
After winning the National Air
Race from California to Chicago last
year, talk was started of an around
the-world flight. Hall put up the
money and Post and Gatty sailed
away in the winnie Mae" named
after Halls daughter, Mrs. Winnie
Mae Fain, to fly around the world
faster than any men had every flown
around it before.
