REWARD OFFER
SPURS POLICE
Governor Acts to Help
Solve Murder at
Chattanooga

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. May
6. (UP).-A $500 reward, posted
by Governor Hill McAlister, to-
day turned on the heat" in the
search for the ''well-dressed young
man" who committed the bestial
Stomp murder" on pretty Eula
Mae Mcconnell.
Ralph Perry, secretary of Nc
Alister, announced at Nashville
late yesterday that $500 reward
had been posted by the governor
for capture of the murderer.
The reward spurred police, al
ready utilizing every resource of
their department. in the hunt for
clues in the murder which has
aroused Tennessee.
Mrs. Mcconnell, pretty, 90
year-old mother of twin girls, was
found dying in her apartment last
week, both jaws smashed, her
body stripped and the clear i'm
preston of a mans heel on her
abdomen as if her assailant had
ground his heel into the flesh.
Police were running down half
a dozen promising clues, but none
thus far had turned suspicion to
any single individual.
Major clues were: s....
l. A bloody purse belonging to
the dead woman found thrust I'M
der the rear seat of an automo-
bile. Fingerprints taken from the
purse were sent to Washington to
be compared with prints discov-
cred in her apartment.
2. A mysterious telephone call
received by Mrs. Mcconnell from
an unidentified man in Nashville
about three weeks ago. ..
3. An unnamed person who
talked to the young matron in her
apartment five minutes before her
screams were heard and 10 min
utes before she was found by
Police Commissioner
Eugene Bryan said this persons
testimony placed the murder at
between 4 p. m. and 4:05 p. m.
on last Thursday.

Federal Aid For
NC. Schools Seen
AS A Necessity

RALEIGH, May 6.-(UP).-
Federal aid for North Carolina
schools is imperative, Clyde A.
Erwin, state superintendent OF
public instruction, said here to-
day.,
Erwin said the low average IN
come of the North Carolina tax
payer makes it impossible to raise
the per capita expenditure on ed
ucation even to the level of the
national average.
The school head, however, was
more optimistic about the state S
public schools than he ever has
been. More than 100000 children
will return to the nine months
term this fall, he estimated, be-
cause of funds provided by local
supplement.
Among cities that voted spe-
cial school tax are Charlotte,
Winston-Salem, Asheville, Nor
canton, Lenoir, Raleigh, Rocky
Mount, Southern Pines and Roa-
noke Rapids.

MUSHROOMS certainly do dress
WI Up the plainest dish. Unless
they are very sandy they should
not be washed. for they are deli
cate and water tends to destroy
their flavor as well as make them
tough. To prepare them. separ-
ate the caps from the stems.
Scrape the stems and peel the caps
il .heir skins are tough. The
stems usually are tougher than
the caps and require longer cook
ing.
A nice bit of economy is to
cover the Feelings with cold water
and simmer for fifteen minutes.
Then strain through cheesecloth
and use the stock for fiavoring
soups and sauces. You will be
amazed at the change a few table,
spoons Of this mushroom stock
can make in the taste Of a cream
Of spinach soup, for instance.
IL mushrooms must be washed,
take care that the gills do not be-
come water soaked. Dry on a
soft cloth and turn with the gills
down.
Sauteing Brings Out Flavor
The flavor Of mushrooms is
emphasized il they are sauted in
a little butter before adding to
any dish. Be sure to use all the
butter and mushroom liquor in
the pan. because this is particu-
larry rich and fiavorsome.
Mushrooms and peas are a de-
licious combination. Cook peas
in as little water as possible I'M
til tender, letting water cook
away wher done. Then add mush-
rooms which have been sauted in
butter. One-half cup mushrooms
Is enough for two cups cooked
peas.

KENT SOIL PLAN
NEARLY READY
Russell E. Wilson, County
Agent, Getting Compli-
ance Records
FARMERS BENEFITED

With the completion of the field
inspection and the measuring of
acreages of crop land on those
farms for which applications have
been signed, the 1886 soil conserva-
ton program is drawing to close,
and the members of the various
county committees are endeavoring
to have all of the compliance re-
ports checked over within the next
few weeks. This committee for
the Kent County Agricultural Con-
servation Association, which in
cludes R. Harry Wilson, Ernest S.
Mattiford and Laurence E. Cain,
has spent several weeks through
out the late summer and fall
months checking over the inspec-
ton reports from the field super
visors, and preparing the comph-
ance papers for final approval by
the Federal government. In this
work the county committee is re-
ceiving the cooperation of c. Ar
thur Taylor and Robert A. Carton,
who represent Kent County on the
state committee, and who recently
attended a regional conference
which was held in Roanoke, Vir-
ginia, for the purpose of discussing
the 1887 soil conservation pro-
gram. Although this new agricul-
tural program was proposed by the
Federal government to offer finan-
cial aid to farmers in the improve
ment of their crop land by the use
of legumes and other soil. conserv-
ing crops, it is too early in the OPP
erations of this program to de-
termine its effect upon agriculture.
There are conclusive indications,
however, that as time goes on
there will result a decided improve
ment in our farm land throughout
the United States. This situation
has needed attention for a number
of years in view of the fact that
most of our crop land has been un-
dergoing a process of depletion in
fertility along with the low prices
for farm products. In order to de-
termine, therefore, the results
which have been attained in Kent
county. aside from the benefit pay
ments, surveys of legume acreages
will be continued by County Agent
Russell E. Wilson, and a check UP
as completely as possible will be
made also regarding the yields OF
crops on this land which has been
improved by this program. AL
though the yield may be increased
per acre, there is little possibility
that the total production of our
basic farm commodities will be
materially increased since a GER
tain percentage of this crop land
is being removed each year from
cultivation and the growing of sol
depicting crops. AS the purpose
of this program is to balance pro-
duction and adjust our farming
practices to conform to these rap
idly changing economic conditions
it is expected that as this soil con.
servation program is continued
there will be more farmers taking
part in it as a means of recovering
from this depression.
