The crop variety booklet wa
prepared for the first time last
year and it was suggested at this
falls meeting of the county Ag-

Included in the booklet are
recommended varieties of all
commonly grown crops for this
county both under irrigated and
dryland conditions. These recon-
m~endations are based on the best
experimental evidence and OBJ
servations that are available for
this area. This year a section on
forage crops including both le-
gumes and grasses for dryland
and irrigated sections of the coun-
ty were added. The fertilizer
recommendations as last year in

Alfalfa WeeviI
Control Meeting

George Roemhild, assistant state
entomologist from Montana State
College will speak at three meet
ings which have been scheduled
in the county on alfalfa weevil
control. The place, date and time
of each of these meetings are as
follows: NYA hall, Sidney, Feb
ruary % at 800 p. m; Mona Hall,
February 20 at 200 p. m, and
Fairview Lions Club, Feb. 20 at
800 p. m.
Considerable weevil damage
was experienced in several sec
tons of the county last year and
it was felt that extensive loss in
hay tonnage may result this year
if control measures are not en-
ployed. Mr.. Roemhild knows the
situation in the county first hand
as a result of an inspection trip
made in the county last summer.
All alfalfa producers in the
county should plan to attend one
of these meetings.

Reminder to
Seed Producers

Reminder to
Seed Producers
If you have seed for sale and
have not yet had it tested for
purity and termination, / suggest
that you send in samples right
| away for testing. We mentioned
this sometime back but another
reminder is in order since indi-
cations point to a rather lively
interest this year in high quality
seed.
The Montana Grain Inspection
Laboratory at Bozeman gets
mighty busy as spring draws
nearer and since a certain amount
of time is needed in making the
tests, you'll get faster service if
the lab gets your samples early.
Incidentally, be sure that your
samples are truly representative
of your entire lot of cleaned seed.
Otherwise the test will not re-
fleet the true facts about the
entire lot.
In submitting samples for test
ing, you can have either a puri-
ty test or a termination test made
or both If you wish. There is a
charge for these tests and we
have complete information at the
county extension office on these
charges as well as how to pre-
pare your sample for shipment.
So again, don't put it off any
longer If you have seed to be
tested. Get it cleaned up and
send your samples to the labor
atory now.

QUESTION: What are Tach-
richim?
ANSWER: 'Tachrichim' is the
name given to the shrouds in
which the dead are dressed for
burial according to Jewish tradi-
ton. The word is traced to a word
meaning a robe" which is men,
toned in the Bible Esther 8:15).
Its root is said to come from a
verb meaning ''to wrap" A robe
in oriental dress was something
that was wrapped" around the
person.
QUESTION: Why are the
threads used in sewing the
shrouds left unknotted?
ANSWER: The threads used in
sewing the shrouds are left with
out knots in accordance with Jew
ish tradition which holds that the
reason for the burial of the dead
is to let the body disintegrate.
The appearance of knot is an
indication of a point of separa-
ton instead of the desired inte-
grafton which was sought.
y
QUESTION: Is it proper to pre-
pare shrouds for ones self while
one is yet alive?
ANSWER: Many pious people
observe just such a practice.
There are several reasons ad-
vanced for such a practice. For
one thing, it is claimed that when
a person remembers that his
shrouds are prepared it makes
him humble and penitent. The
sight of the shrouds convinces us
of the futility of the material
goals we strive for and fight over.
Some claim that the reason for
preparing the shrouds during
ones lifetime was so that the
heirs would not be caught unpre-
pared in case the death and burial
occurred on a festival, since it is
forbidden to make or buy them
on a festival while it is permissi-
BILE to bury the dead on certain
festival days.
The Southern Jewish weekly., 1956-10-12
QUESTION: Why are all
shrouds white?

ANSWER: We find it stated
that originally there was no set
pattern or color for burial
shrouds. There then arose a con-
dition where the rich would place
elaborate clothing and decorations
around their deceased while the
poor would sometimes leave the
body and flee out of embarrass-
ment. It was then recommended
by Rabbi Gamliel that the shrouds
of the dead be symbolic of hu-
mility and purity. All followed
his example and the custom was
set by rabbinic decree that
shrouds be limited to simple
white vestments as a sign of
equality, humility and purity in
the face of death.

and the ashes were scattered in
the English Channel. She left
an estate Of almost $4,000.

had falsely represented that so
far as he knew he had no
pecuniary interest" in her death.
In addition to the murder
charge, DR.. Adams also was ac-
cused of violation of Britain's

Can. You Prove It Was MURDER
Asks Doctor Held in Widows Deoth

EASTBOURNE. England. Dec.
20 lP.-"Murder? Can you prove
1t was murder? I did not think
you could prove murder. She
was dying in any event."
A doctor who has practiced in
this sedate resort city more than
80 years wos quoted today as
making that statement when he
was arrested on charges of mur-
dering one of his patients, a
wealthy 81-year-old widow.
The arrest Of 57-year-old DR..
John Bodkin Adams was a turn
ing point in the mystery that
has held the British public's in
terest for months-whether foul
play had anything to do with
the deaths of some 800 rich old
ladies Of Eastbourne during the
past 20 years.
DR.. Adams was brought from
his jail cell to hear the formal
Charges and the fixing of jan
uary IA as his trial date. He
was arrested yesterday and ac-
cused Of the murder Of Mrs.
Edith Alice Morrell, the widow
|of food importer.
Shows Little Emotion

tive Supt. Herbert Hannah made

humation order.
800 Deaths Checked
Scotland Yard disclosed last
August that it had started a full
scale inquiry into the deaths Of
nearly 800 rich old ladies over
the past 20 years in the VIC
torian town Of 10000 persons.
Investigation came after rumors
concerning the deaths and wills
buzzed for several months
through EastbourneS , hotel draw
ing rooms and tea shops.
Town Constable Richard
Walker declined comment but
admitted that a letter from a
townswoman sent him of to
London for a talk with Scot
land Yard.
Supt. Hannah was named to
head the investigation. British
newspapers gave the story prom
inent play when he began de-
veloping a theory that someone
might have benefited financially
from a number of the deaths.
Plainclothes men checked the
wills left by the wealthy elderly
women and were reported tc
have narrowed the inquiry down
to a dozen cases said to show
suspicious similarities.
IL Offenses Charged
Last month DR.. Adams was
charged with 13 offenses, .nclud-
ling eight forgery counts, one OF
larceny and four for alleged vio-
lations of the cremation act. He
posted $500 bail and continued
his practice, which dates back
more than 80 years in East
bourne.
Yesterday Supt. Hannah ar
rived at the doctors home and
read the new charges to him.
The doctor was taken to jail
under armed guard.
Many Eastbourne residents
predicted DR.. Adams would pre-
sent a strong defense. He has
hired Sir Hartley Shawcross
one of Britain's most brilliant
lawyers, to represent him.

FRIENDSHIP BAPTIST

But while men slept, his en-
envy came and sowed tares among
the wheat and went his way st.
Matt, 1928. This was the text
used by Rev. Seminole Mckee in
his message Sunday morning,
January /.
Using as his subject, "Awaketh
Thou o Sleeper" he brought out
that there are tares in the church
among the wheat. The devil gets
in and causes the sincere Christ
ian to become slack. The enemy,
the devil, is the one who sows
the tares.
Mrs. Harris rendered the music
and the congregation poined in
the singing.
Because is was the first Sun
day in the New Year of 1856, we
had a wonderful turnout. Many
visitors were present. Mr.. Silas
Smith of Mt. Olivet Baptist
church, st. Paul, and his family
worshipped with us. He sang a
beautiful solo which we all en-
joyed. He has promised to return
To Friendship again in the near
future.
Our BTU was well attended. A
wonderful picture was shown, en-
titled, The Promise, which was
very interesting.
At the evening service, the Gilt
tering Star brought two beautiful
numbers. The male chorus of
Friendship sang morning and eve
ming and the spirit was manifest
and we had glorious time in the
Lord. John Rivers rendered a
spiritual solo, also Mrs. Buckhal-
ton gave a number.
Rev. Harris brought an inspir-
ing message proceeding the adj
ministering of the Lords Supper.
His text was taken from Psalms
l16:l2. What shall l render unto
the Lord for all His benefits to
me ?" Rev Harris emphasized that
God had been very gracious TO us
in the year 1855. The question
asked II What did we render to
Him"
Next Sunday, January s, the
Usher Board will present a Won
derful program at $3.50 in the af-
ternoon. Letters have been sent to
all churches asking their pastors
TO send members of their usher
boards to assist us in our finan-
cial drive. We shall expect you.
