BALTIMORE, June 4.-What
appeared to have been a fresh
lead to new evidence in the
George Edward Grammer case
today apparently blew up into
nothing.
Grammer is scheduled to hang
next Thursday night for the
murder of his wife, Dorothy
May, in August, 1852.
Grammer's attorney said they
believe they have found cab
driver with new evidence but
the driver replied that they were
attempting to use him as a
dummy" and that the whole
thing is a farce"
He said the events he recalled
were in 1858, not in 1852, the
year Grammer'S wife was slain.
The State maintained the kill
ing was planned because Gram
mer loved another woman. It
said Grammer killed his wife,
then tried to make it appear as
an auto accident.
The defense contends the kill
ing was not planned and the fact
Grammer hailed a cab to escape
the death scene proves it,.
The defense. in a final appeal
to the Governor, said.
1T is inconceivable that Gram
mer would not have provided a
means of escape from the scene,
rather than to rely on the chance
meeting with a taxicab" if the
killing was planned.

Although the quail is now con-

protected" by an act of the Legi-
stature and may not be shot. Many
sportsmen claim quail are more
numerous in Ohio than for many
years but a severe winter could
materially reduce the population.
In answer to this and many other
questions, the Ohio Division of
Wildlife is conducting a compre-
hensive study of the quail prob

Large Deer Killed

COLUMBUS, OHIO - A 295-

County, according to the Ohio Divi-

tail deer have been reported In the
4OO-pound class from various sec,-
ions of the United States, very few
have been found weighing over 300
pounds. OF the hundreds brought
TO checking stations in 1858 by
Ohio hunters, none weighed 300

Wool Yield Shown
Prior To Shears

CHICAGO: An age-old question
that every sheep grower wants an
swered at market time is, How
much wool will sheep yield, allow
ing for shrinkage 2"
A new method of estimating
clean wool yield at the ranch is
explained in the current issue of
National Live Stock Producer.
by using this new method" !"
says the magazine, ''the wool
grower can start off bargaining on
an even footing with the buyer"
Here is the almost perfect sys-
tenn of determining clean wool
yield of fine wooled ewes:
When ewes are brought in from
the range, select 1919 at random
and weigh them. Sample sheep
should be taken from all pastures
and herds as wool shrinkage varies
from flock to flock.
Madison County Democrat. (London, Ohio) 19??-1958, 1954-11-09
SPORTS

Measure the unstretched staple
length of wool on the hip of each
sheep-the most reliable spot for
estimating staple length and yield.
Average the body weights and
staple lengths. Subtract one-eighth
inch for shearing stubble.
Then find the average clean
fleece weight by using the special
tables (printed in the magazine).
To get percentage yield, divide
the average grease fleece weight
into the average clean fleece
weight.
In tests with thousands of sheep
with this system, asserts the mag
azine, wool researcher have found
maximum error of only 2.35%o.
