Irrigated Pasture.
Carries Load

JUST 10 ACRES of irrigated pas
ture keeps 35 head of milk cows in
production from spring through fall
at the John Hentz dairy at Hinsdale.
And 80 acres of irrigated pasture
carries 200 head of registered Co
lumbia sheep and six milk cows in
addition to producing hay. at the
Frank Ferrin farm west of Nashua.
These reports of the proved value
of irrigated pastures kept at peak
production through application of
manure and commercial fertilizers
are made by S. J. Urs, agricultural
specialist of Glasgow.
Hentz first started his pasture in
1887. He plowed, leveled and seeded
four acres of former hay land to
Huntley mixture at the rate of Is
pounds to the acre. In 1941 he
seeded an additional five acres and
again added another acre in 1916.
For the first two paintings he used
an ordinary grain drill set at 80
pounds rate for wheat, but he broad
cast the seed in the last planting.
The 15-pound rate was used for all
and good stand was obtained in
each case.
The land is border diked, with the
dikes about so feet apart.
Applications of $50 pounds to the
acre of 10-20-0 ammoniated phos-
phate in the springs of 1948 and 1949
proved effective and last fall 100
loads of manure with 10 pounds of
phosphate to each load were applied
Ferrin began his pasture. in 1945
using mixture of pounds of al
falfa seed to 3 pounds of bronze
grass. The alfalfa started dying out
during the third year, so pounds Of
sweet clover were seeded.
| His procedure now is to pasture
the land during May, take the live.
stock off for month, then cut the
growth for hay and pasture agair
in the fall. Ferrin also follows the
practice of applying manure ane
phosphate.

Unofficial Court Saves
Convicted SIayerFrom
Chair al Last Moment
BY the Associated Press

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Mar. IL
A convicted slayer sat jubilant in
his Ohio Penitentiary death row
cell today after a dramatic 11th-
hour reprieve saved him from the
electric chair last night.
Gov. Frank J. Lausche granted
Theodore r. Mcclure, %, colored
of Cleveland, a 60-day stay of
execution at 7:10 pm, only so
minutes before McClure's sched-
uled electrocution.
The Governors last t-minute
move came only a few hours after
he had refused to intervene in
McClure'S behalf.
Mcclure owes his lease on life
to group composed of a doctor,
a detective, an author and pub
Usher who call themselves the
court of last resort"
Court Is Voluntary.
The court" is strictly unofficial,
unpaid and voluntary. It inves-
tigates suspected miscarriages of
justice.
It's members are DR.. lie Moyne
Snyder, former medico-legal ad-
wiser to the Michigan State police
and author of a murder detection
text; Raymond SCHNEIDER, New
York private detective; Erie STAN
ley Gardner, author of many mur-
der-mystery novels, and Harry
Steeger, publisher of Argosy mag
azine.
DR.. Snyder said his group had
had time for only a preliminary
investigation after Mcclure made
his appeal to the court" But,
he decided:
There are several things which
don't look right about it,"
Moves Rapidly.
In view of Gov. Lausche's deci-
sion not to intervene, the court"
moved rapidly. 1t persuaded a
justice of the Michigan Supreme
Court at Lansing to telephone
Gov. G. Mennen Williams with an
appeal to intercede with Gov.
Lausche. Gov. Williams CONVEX
sation with Gov. Lausche followed
the lines of DR.. Snyder's conten-
tions. The physician had said:
"The firearms testimony was
inconclusive and Mcclure has
never been subjected to lie
detector test. He refused to plead
guilty to a second-d degree murder
charge which would have meant
his release h 10 years.
This case appears to be worth
taking good look into. There
is no reason why it is so necessary
to electrocute Mcclure tonight"

The secret indictments were an
nounced yesterday. The charges
include operation of a lottery,
publicizing of a lottery, black
mail, aiding and abetting black
mail and doing business as an
agent of an out-of- State corpora
ton not licensed to do business
in Ohio.
None of the men face all of
the charges. Arrangements are set
for April 10.

ments are Matthew L. Brown of

Barnett H. Goldstein of Port
land, Greg, grand aerie legal ad-
wiser.

Mr.. Gunderman was indicted on
a charge of blackmail, on a charge

on one count-that of doing busi-
ness as an agent of an out of :
