To Save Woman
From Chair
NEW ALBANY, Ind. I

NEW ALBANY, Ind. - To
save a legally dead" wo-
man from the electric chair.
this Ohio river town has raised
500 in a drive toward a $1,000
goal.
She Ia 34-year-old Mrs. Lucille
Anderson. first woman to be given
the death penalty in the state Of
Arkansas, scheduled for execution
in the staying of a Hot Springs
chain store official.
She Ia also the late' Lusetta
McMonigle, New Albany girl, who
Vanished in October, 1925. at the
age Of 20, and was declared dead
in circuit court three years ago.
MYSTERIOUS
DISAPPEARANCE
FOR years police followed every
lead In a search for Lusetta.
An orphan, she had been reared
In the home Of the Graybrooks
In New Albany, sent to school,
made a member Of church.
There seemed TO be no logical
reason for her disappearance.
Some said that she might have
committed suicide, As her father
had. Others believed she had been
kidnapped and slain. But every clew
led up a blind alley.
Finally. In 1895, Irene Gray
brook. daughter Of the woman
with whom Lusetta had lived. filed
petition TO have the missing girl
declared legally dead In order to
dispose of the $3.50 worth OF per-
sonal property she had left. The
petition was granted by the cir
cult court.
The story begins again with a
holdup of a grocery executive In
Hot Springs, Ark. in September.
1898. Eldon Cooley, the 26-year-
old victim was murdered by
Arrested In the case were Joseph
B. Smoky Joe" Anderson, So. his
wife. and two others. They all
received the death penalty.
Then New Albany learned what
had become Of Lusetta McMonigle.
In an effort to save herself from
the chair, Mrs. Anderson admitted
her identity.

w eedy Milk

From the standpoint Of herd man
agement there are two things that
can be done to prevent weedy-ha-
vored cream. One is to keep the
cows off the Weedy pasture for from
three to five hours before milking
That may in some cases mean that
the cows will have to be taken off
the Weedy pasture at noon and in
the evening before retiring for the
night, during the time that the
weeds are at their worst stage, says
Hoard's Dairyman. The second way
to avoid weedy cream is to provide
the cows enough good feed so they
will not be forced to eat weeds.
When cows have access to good
pasture, they will usually leave the
weeds alone. 1t the pasture is Short
it should be supplemented with hay,
grain, silage. or green feed. A COM
bination of these two methods is ex-
cellent. Turn the cows on the weedy
pasture after milking but transfer
them to good pasture or to a
yard where they have access to
other feed three or four hours be-
fore milking.

Males for Next Season
Should Be Chosen Early

II one desires to hatch ones own
eggs next year. now is the time to
select the cockerels that will be need
ed, says writer in the Missouri
Farmer. AS the chicks grow, the
topnotchers of the flock begin to
show up. They forge ahead of their
fellows, and plainly indicate that
they possess more vigor, faster
growing and feathering qualities
than their brothers. These are the
ones to mark for breeding purposes.
Out of hundred males there will
be half dozen or SO of these top
notchers. These should be kept
throughout the summer and then
next fall culled again, since sew
eral of them will fail to maintain
the pace set by the leaders. A few
more than will be needed for the
matings next year should be kept,
since one or two might die in the
interim. In selecting cockerels for
breeding purposes, vigor Is the all
important consideration. Lacking
this quality, male is worthless be-
cause his offspring will be unsatis-
factory.

FARM
Tories
SHOULD BE READY
FOR THE HARVEST
Have Equipment in Repair
To Handle Fruit Crop.
BY M. B. Hoffman. New York State
College of Agriculture.
WNU Service

Harvest time is busy time for
the fruit grower. He has to esti-
mate the crop. plan for dependable
pickers. and have on hand the need
ed supply of baskets. boxes, pads,
nails, liners. and similar equipment.
Everything included in the equip
ment of harvesting and packing
should be in good repair ahead of
time. Ruts and rough places in the
orchard roadways should be re-
paired to prevent bruising the fruit
when it is hauled from the orchard.
The right kind of picking ladder is
a big satisfaction. For peaches,
prunes, and small apple and pear
trees, the stepladder is desirable.
A stepladder, wide at the base, mar
rowing toward the top and with a
single leg for support, is the east
est to place among the branches.
For mature apple trees, the rung
ladder with a wide base and COM
ing to a point at the top is the most
satisfactory. The larger ladders
should be made OF light wood. Bass
wood makes an excellent ladder.
The type of containers used in
handling fruit has great influence
on the amount and severity of bruis-
ing. In general, picking containers
with rigid walls cause the least
bruising.

Cross Breeding

For many years American pouI-
trynfen have. by crossing different
breeds, produced chicks that show
sex differences by the different col
ors of the males and females. Rhode
Island Red males, for example,
crossed with Barred Rock hens pro-
duce black female chicks with black
shanks. The males, also black, have
yellow shanks and a white spot on
the head. Another example of cross
breeding for sex determination of
chicks is the crossing of rapid-feath-
ering Single-Comb White Leghorns
with slow-feathering Single-Comb
White Leghorns. The male chicks
have small primary wing feathers.
Females hatch with larger pri-
mary wing feathers. Cross-breeding
has its limitations, however. Two
breeding lines must be maintained.
Generally the poultryman wants but
one breed.
