Maryland Bill Urged
To LET Counties Keep
Gaming Raid Funds
BY the Asseeioted Press

| ANNAPOLIS, Dec. 27.-The Leg
islative Council has a suggestion for
counties that want to know what
to do with money seized in a gam
bling raid:
Keep it.
The proposal is one of a series of
crime and punihsment" bills to be
offered the General Assembly next
month.
If approved the measures would
apply retribution to such assorted
offenses as driving down an unsus-
pecting swimmer with motor boat
or getting drunk in department
store
What to do with gambling take
gave Anne Arundel County authori-
ties headache almost two years
ago.
Settled Out of Court.
Police arrested three men sus-
pected of running numbers slips.
Among other items they seized about
$1,000 in cash. Chief John H. Souers
sailed it away for the county.
The men were convicted on a
lottery charge and fined $1,000
apiece, Chief Souers recalls. But
they sued the chief and the county
commissioners for the confscated
money. The result was an out-of-
court settlement.
ut was uncertain whether the
State could confiscate this money

ment says in explaining the council
bill. This would permit courts to
forfeit captured cash" to the
county Cor Baltimore City in which
| it was taken, six months after the
gamblers are convicted.
! If any one is arrested but found
not guilty he may apply for a re-
fund. Even if convicted, he may
ask for hearing.
Ask to Make kidnapping a Felony.
Here are some of the other pro-
posed criminal laws on which the
Legislature will act:
/. Increase the maximum penalty
for assault with intent to. murder

ty recommended the sitter sentence

arrest.

longer sentence was not possible,
says the reference department.
2. Make kidnapping a felony. A
kidnaper may be hanged now, and
the council explains such serious
offense carrying such an extreme
penalty should be classified as a
felony rather than as misde-
meanor"
8. Provide for the crime OF

bill would add seagoing craft to the
law which already makes man

Homemade Weighing
Bin Speeds Work
Device Aids Automatic
Feed Handling Setup

II Is an old saying that all farm
equipment was first thought of by a
farmer. Whether that saying holds
true may be questioned. But it is
certain that much of it did come
into being as the result of ideas
which some farmer had concerning
ways to improve and speed up the
performance of his various chores.
A pertinent example of this fact
IS shown in the accompanying Illus
tration. It shows a homemade
weighing bin. which was conceived
by a Midwestern farmer for use
with his automatic feed handling
setup. 1t holds several tons of feed
and is fixed to the ceiling by series
OF heavy springs and turnbuckles,
one spring being located at each
corner of the bin in the center of
two turnbuckles. Tension on the
springs moves a pointer across a
scale at the bottom of the bin to
indicate weight up to 5000 pounds.
A slide gate at the bottom of the
bin permits feed to spill out into a
cart in desired quantities. The bin

Formula Computes Feed
Renuired for One Hen

High egg production clearly takes
more feed, but just as clearly the
feed brings greater return in terms
of eggs than the same amount fed
to low-producting hens. DR.. L. E.
Card of the Illinois experiment sta
ton explains how to compute the
total feed required for one hen for
year:
Multiply .ne live weight of the
bird, in pounds, by 8.
Add 25.
Divide the total number of eggs
the hen lays by z (e. G. l05 divided
nv 7 equals 15) and add this figure
TO the total obtained by the first
two steps. An example;
Weight of hens pounds.
Five times equals 40; plus 70
equals 65.
Hen lays 105 eggs per year. d.
vide this figure by 7. Result Is.
Total feed required - 80 pounds.
(65 plus 15).
