RAISING COLTS In
North Carolina
By F. NJ. Haig
Associate Professor Of Animal Husbandry

Associate Professor OF Animal HuSbandry

H. URING the past few years, North
Carolina farmers have showed renewed
interest in raising their own work stock
requirements. As result, a rather large
number of colts were born on North
Carolina farms this Spring. If these
young colts are to grow into useful work
animals, they must receive proper feed
and management for the next three
years.
From birth until six months of age,
the foal consumes mostly his mothers
milk, together with some grain and hay.
1t is of greatest Importance that the
foal start life in full health and vigor.
1t should, Immediately after birth, take
a good draft of the colostrum, or first
milk of its mother. This first milk pos
sesses regulating properties that tend to
relieve the alimentary tract of fecal mat
ter collected therein before birth. If the
results are not accomplished, a gentle
purgative of one tablespoonful of castor
oil should be given.
On account of the great danger from
navel and joint disease, the navel cord
should receive attention Immediately
after birth, and the stump carefully dis
infected with iodine. To prevent germ
infection of the intestinal tract of foal,

which causes scours, wash the udder of
the mare with lukewarm two per cent
solution of a coal-tar disinfectant; then
rinse it off with warm water before al
lowing the foal its first meal.
Pasture Grass Best
Some dams, more frequently those
with their first foal and those too hard
worked, fail to supply the proper nour-
ishment, and the young languish. In such
cases, the mare should be provided with
food which will stimulate milk flow.
Good pasture grass is best, but in its
absence, concentrates should be given in
the shape of oats, rolled barley, wheat
bran, with an equal weight of corn.
When the colt is about three weeks

old, he will begin nibbling from his
mothers feed box and will acquire
taste for grain. The earlier the foal
learns to eat the better, both for foal and
mare. A good grain mixture for the colt
at this time is equal parts by weight of
oats, bran, and cracked corn. This
should be put in box especially for the
colt. Colts should be given good clover,
alfalfa or other legume hay as soon
as they will eat it, and all the clean, pure
water they wait.
When Mare Is Worked
When the mare is worked, the colt
should be left in cool, dark stall during
the day, where he will be safe and not
bothered by flies. The mare must be
brought to the barn forenoon and after
noon. ALLOW the mare to cool off before
turning her into the stall with the foal.
Brood mares at work and nursing strong
foals should be heavily fed to sustain a
good flow of milk. If the mare is work
ed, it is we'll to turn both dam and foal
OH to grass pasture at night and feed
liberal allowance of grain.
At about six months of age the foal
should be weaned. If the foal has been
fed increasing quantities of grain as it
developed, the weaving process will not
be difficult. Complete separation will
then cause little setback to dam or foal
Keep dam and foal well separated. At
weaving the mares grain ration should
be reduced until she is dried off.
Oats Superior Grain
The colt makes more than half its
growth during the first year. If stunted
during this time it will never fully re-
cover. Good bone and muscle are of
prime Importance, and feeds which tend
to produce these should be chosen.
Nothing is superior to good pasture, with
oats as the grain.
All legume hays, alfalfa, clover, soy
bean, ETC., are rich in lime, the principal
mineral compound of bones. Corn can
be fed as part of the ration when properly
balanced by some nitrogenous feeds.
1t is evident that by intelligent man.

TRENTON EXCITED

Trenton, N. J., March 3i.--(Up) Excitement over the Lindbergh Kidnapping case was as great in Trenton today as on the day. cxact- ly four years and one month ago, when Charles A. Lindbergh, Jr., was kidnapped. Little knots of people clustered on street corners, in rcs- taurantg. in officcS, in bars and in backyards to discuss the execution tonight of Bruno Richard Haupt- mann. Rumors of all kinds of spectacular and impossible develop mcnts flew over the city.
 Some of the reports were: That Hauptmann had offered to "confcss." denied in every ofiicial quarter.
 That Hauptmann had asked to see the governor Immediately" The governor denied 1t.
 That the governor visited Haupt- mann's death cell. Both the gov crnor and prison authorities denied that.
 That an Italian had been arrest cd in connection with investigate of Paul Wendell, who confessed the Lindbcrgh baby's murder and then repudiated it. Attorney General David T. Wilcntz and state police denied 1t.
 That the governor would grant a rcpricvc at the 1lth hour. after an attempt to break Hauptmanns nerve and elicit q confession. The governor repeated his dictum that there will be no repricve.

Hauptn1ann MustDie
 M Chair Tonight

Kimberling said Hauptmann had not Blept since 10:30 q. m. Monday.
 Today he was served breakfast of cornflakcs and milk, poachcd eggs, toast, butter and coffee. He refused to eat.
 He was asked what he would like to have for dinner and made his caustic reference to sending 1t to 'Jafsie'.
 Kimberling said if Hauptmann de- sires he can have celery, olives, roast chicken, buttcred peas, cherries and cake, coffee, milk and 6 cigar for dinner. That is the meal Charles Zied, gangster who also dies tonight will get. Zied was calm as he pre- pared to prcccde the Lindbcrgh blaycr in the chair.
 He was bathcd, his clothes changed and his head has been clipped 20 the electrodes will fit tightly. His trouser leg will not be split to make room for the other clectrode until just before he enters the death chamber.
 Not Afraid to Die Hauptmann was pale and shaken as the guards made the final prep arations.
 Tn a half-hearted way he num- bled:
 I'm not afraid to die"
 Kimberling said that, in a trcm- bling voice, Hauptmann told him:
 Although I'm innocent, I'm not afraid to die and will go to the chair feeling better than some of the other men who testified against me"
 The warden also said that recent ly Hauptmann told him that Dr. Condon at Pennington told Haupt- mann that he was unable to idcn- tify him as the receiver of the ran som money. Dr. Condon identified Hauptmann, however, at the trial. Early Proceedings
 Trenton, N. J., March 31-CUP) -- Bruno Richard Hauptmann dies in the New Jersey electric chair at s o'clock tonight for the murder Of baby Liindbcrgh. His last card had been played. all avenues of escape had been blocked off, only 6 mir acle could save him. Tn his cell in the death house, he prayed for the miracle. x.
 The miracle was within Haupt- mann's power. To forestall death for at least a day and perhaps for weeks or months, all he had to do wag to make material changes In the story to which he has clung since the day he was arrested In New York city with part of the Lindbcrgh blood money in his pocket. Whether he would grasp this last straw waS problematic. Haupt- mann has well earned his reputation of being man Of iron. Guard Against Suicide
 Prison authorities surrounded him with extraordinary precautions against suicide, duty bound to guard his life until the legal moment ar- rived to end it. They had noticed

 Last Talk On Baby
 Then HauptmaDn pressed against the bars of his cell and asked:

 She told him briefly about the child and what he had been doing. There is q picture of him pasted on the wall of Ifauptnann's cell.

Jersey justice is exact on po- licemen killers. His wife visited him yesterday. She too knew there was not the slightest hope.
 "S'long. Kid", he said to her.
 Something on Wendell
 Trenton, N. J., March 3i--(U.P) Paul II. Wendell. diSbarred Tren- ton attorney, charged with the mur- der of the Llndbcrgh baby. was suS- pected of passing Lindbergh ransom money about two years ago, the United Press learned today. Ellis II. Parker, chief of Burlington County detectives, investigated the rumors that Wendell had distributed some of the 9b0,000 pr. John r. Cond0n gave to tho kidnaper or his accom- plicc in St. Raymond's cemetery. 1t was learned. The fact that Parker still considers Wendell an important figure in the crime for which Bruno Richard Hauptmann will die to- night was regarded fts significant in the light of this disclosure. Kirkham IN Confident James s. Kirkharn, chief of Mer- ccr County detectives who charged Wendell with the Lindbergh murder in one of the most bizarre episodes of case which already has ranged from low comedy to high tragedy. refused today to disclose what in- formation he held other than the former attorneys repudiated con- fession.
 Kirkham insisted. however, that he had ample grounds for connect ing Wendell with the Kidnapping of Charles A. Lindbergh. Jr. lie denied that it had to do with ransom money.

 Fear Skull Fractured
 So hard was Martin Bluggcd on the head with Q blackjack that his skull may have been fractured, though Chelsea Memorial Hospital physicians said his condition was not immediately critical.
 After fclling and disarming the officer, one bandit pinioned him to the floor while another snatched the payroll bag from Hawley. The first bandit continued to hold the wounded but struggling officer until his two conferedatcs were safely outside. Then hc joined them, and though one ripped and fell on the lawn, all escaped in Q car driven by an accomplice.
 Motorists pursued the bandit car along Washington street, but lost 1t in traffic few blocks distant.
 Investigation disclosed that the number plates on the bandit car had been stolen from Thomas Mo- 0ah of 73 Highland street, Walt ham, Feb. {. Bank officials said the stolen payroll was insured and that new money had been sent to City Hall 50 600 municipal employees could be paid on schedule tomor- row.
 Woman Witnessed It
 Miss Esther M. Yunitz, 40-year- old City Hall telephone operator who witnessed the hold-up and bounded the first alarm, told the United Press: Tt was about 10 min- utes past nine. I was at the tclc- phone switchboard. The police of- ficer came in with Q man from the bank. T rushed out when I heard Q gcuffie. The robbers Blugged offi- cer Martin and took his gun away from him--That's why he couldn't shoot at them when they went out the door.

 "One of them held Officer Mar tin down while another grabbed the bag--it looked like a white cloth bag--from the bank man and ran out. Then they all fled. "They ran toward their old Oldsmobilc, one of them ripped on the lawn. I ran back and telephone the police.
 Before that I had seen two of the men come into the City Hall. One was 6 tall fellow with . soft hot and dark topciat. The other was the shorter and wore c leather jacket.

 Grasplng at Straw
 Hauptmann's hysteria, his graSp- ing at straws as the hours dragged him inevitably toward the electric chair at about 8:20 p. m, tonight, were typical of the frenzy which has marked the last stage of the Lind bergh mystery. While the convicted murderer wept in death Cell No. 9 . few steps from the door to the death chamber, his counsel c. Lloyd Eigher was going through the mos fions of the final legal effort to prevent the execution.
 z But Fisher, who appeared hag- gard and exhausted when he en- tered the prison today, gave no hope that his appeals to Justice Thomas ". Trenchard for judicial stay or c new trial would be successful. z The frantic last hours of Haupt- klann,s life, the preparations for ex- ecution and the extraordinary pre- cautions taken by prison guards to prevent a suicide attempt were &C., Gotnpanied by many rumorS that ssomething would happen"
 Hoffman Tn Doubt
 One of the most persistent rumorB was that Hauptmann had told his wife to tell Gov. Harold c. Hoffman Shat he was ready to talk. This WaB denied by Mrs. Hauptmann, by Hoffman, by Kimbcrling, by Attor- sley General David r. Wilcntz and by Fisher. Whether Hoffman would make a last minute visit to the death house remained uncertain. It was known that prison officials be- eieye Hauptmann may talk and, with that in mind, they put 6 guard in eeUnt oi hls atll today with inBtruc-

 And when he was given the tradi- Gional opportunity to order anything llc wanted for his last meal, Haupt- mann replied bitterly:
 "Id like to have that last meal sent to MT. Condon."
 pr. John r. (Jafsic) Condon was The ransom intermediary in the Lindbergh Kidnapping and a vital witness in the trial that resulted In dauptmann's conviction.
 Kimberling's disclosure of the sudden break in Hauptmann'S out ward calm was made dramatically ct the state prison.

The door separating the death house from the death chamber is of oak (not green) and the death chamber is soundproof. Accordingly, other prisoners in the death house and in other parts of the state prison can not hear the hum of the motors when the electricity is turned into the chair.
 The morgue where autopsies arc performed after the electro cutions lies directly behind the death chamber. There are three doors in the chamber. One leads from the outside, one into the morguc, and the third is the one through which Hauptmann will be led.
