Kidnapped From Him Four Times

BY the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, March 24-Jurors
in the trial of Louis Adams, Gypsy
charged with numbering his wife, Annie,
face the task of balancing Gypsy tradi-
ton against American law.
Adams told the court yesterday he
bought and married his wife according
to Gypsy custom and later had married
her in a Christian church to forestall
a demand that she return to her family.
The last marriage angered his brother
in-law, John Uwanawich, he said.
Adams asserted his wife was kidnapped
from him four times and held for $4,000
ransom.
On the last occasion, Adams said, he
traced her from New York to Los
Angeles, where he found her in her
brothers home December 81.

A definite reversal in the down
ward trend of carloadings is pre-
dicted by Bradstreet's. The pub.
lication estimates that total car
loadings for the current quarter
will be 1853 per cent below the
first quarter of 1881. This repre-
Sents a somewhat narrower spread
than was shown on the last quar-
ter Of 1881, which was 1873 per
cent below the corresponding
period in 1880. For the last three
quarters of 1881 Bradstreet's has
estimated carloadings with a max
imum error of 0.6 per cent.
Although the first two weeks of
1882 have run about 10 per cent
below last year, Bradstreet's feels
that by March this spread will
have been reduced to about 7 per
cent. 1Ele estimates of carload
ings as given for the Class roads
are: January, 2,335,000 cars;
February, 2,371,00O cars, and

SUMMARY SEES
STEEL GAINS

NEW YORK, Jan. q QN.S0.
The steel industry, though max
ing very slow headway against ad-
verse influences, has had another
slight gain in operations to 20 per
cent of ingot capacity for the
country as a whole, compared with
% per cent last week, according
to the weekly Iron Age summary.
The number and aggregate ton
mage of orders are showing i'm
provement, though not Of seasonal
proportions, it is pointed out.
Operations are generally best in
districts where capacity for the
light flat-roolled steels predomi-
mates. The Wheeling district rate
has been stepped up to so per cent,
Cleveland is at 38 per cent, and
Volley Mills continue at an aver
age of 35 per cent, but there
has been virtually no change at
Pittsburgh, Chicago and III east
ern Pennsylvania, where heavy
products such as rails, plates and
structural shapes form large pro

Paws to Test Herd

The last annual report of dairy
herd Improvement associations In
Iowa is worth reading by every dairy
farmer who has courage and ambition
enough to want to improve the pro-
ductive efficiency of his herd. II COW
ers the work from September. 1880.
to September, 1881. 1t. marks the
close of the twenty-second year of
such work in that state. More herds
and more cows were tested during
this last year than during any previ-
Gus year The average butterfat pro-
duced per COW was IA pounds higher
than il has ever been i'm previous
year. The average feed cost per
pound fat was about % per cent low
er than last year.
The above report tells US in convinc-
ing figures that it pays to test every
year. The $50 dairy farmers whose
herds have been tested five years or
more had cows that averaged $50
pounds butterfat returning $7554
above feed cost. The 5SS herds that
had been tested only one year aver
aged only 292 pounds fat and returned
only S56.40 above feed cost. This is
a difference of S19.17 cow-quite
enough to pay the testers wages and
board with considerable tax money
left over.-Hoard's Dairyman.
