J AM ICS <;KTS THIRTEEN YEARS Former Yorkvill* Mm Given Severe Sentence by Baltimore Judge Baltimore Evening Sou (Tuesday). Frank James, 38-year-old native of South Carolina, who last week pleaded guilty to a charge of holding up and rohhinK the cashier at the Oriol? cafeteria, 306 North Howard street, today was aentervced to 13 year* in the penitentiary. 1 he sentence was pronounced by Judge Robert F. Stanton in the erim-* inal court, who last Tuesday heard testimony of the state's witnesses, who told how James held up Miss Frances Norris, girl Cashier at the cafeteria, and took over $200 aftei having sat in the establishment for some time over a cup of coffee. The holdup was committed u few hours less than two weeks ago. James was arrested shortly after the holdup and was identified by the fact that a part of his right ear is missing from an automobile accident. His wife,''who is charged with being an accomplice, is under indictment, but her case is still pending. ^ Congressman W. F. Stevenson, of South Caroling, and his secretary, A. E. Hutchinson, with Paul Mules, Baltimore lawyer, appeared as attorneys for James. The congressman and Mr. Hutchinson both made pleas for mercy a ad submitted a number of letters showing thut James comes from a good family in South Carolina. Present crime conditions and Baltimore's situation in respect to crime were commented upon at the hearing. Judge Stanton read aloud a portion of one letter he received, saying that Baltimore seems to have a reputation in other sections for being affected by the crime wave, instead of being comparatively free from crime. > 1 he letter from which the judge read said: tVe realize he (James) has broken the law and that the law must be satisfied. But as there have been numerous robberies in Baltimore and the people are fed up on such and deserve to have it stopped, something must be done; but we implore yqtt not to make an example of this young man, who has become a victim of circumstances. 'Commenting on the letter the judge said: We have felt our city of Baltimore has been relatively free from abnormal conditions of that sort, but it seems a different reputation has spread to other parts of the country but be it said that most of our trouble, a great deal of it, has been not from our own people, but from young men living within our city, or mere squatters here. In pronouncing sentence the judge called James' attention to the fact that the Maryland law makes a 20 year sentence possible in cases where holdups have been perpetrated with the use of firearms^- The judge also called attention to the detainer laid against James by Philadelphia authorities, charging him with binding and robbing a man in the Pennsylvania city shortly before the cafeteria holdup here. James, like Irving Limper, yesterday sentenced for 20 years, recently served in the United States Marine corps, both men also have worked in garages recently. In his plea for mercy Congressman Stevenson declared that James Was a victim of the times, ar^d spoke of "deplorable conditions" which, he said were caused by "unemployment, together with the utter breakdown of the enforcement of the liquor law." Mr. Hutchinson also referred to "the deplorable general condition all over this country, not only in Baltimore, but in other states, even in South Carolina. Many Killed by Tornadoes -? Dallas, Texas, May 7.?Sixty-six persons were killed, many were injured and property do mage estimated at more than $500,000 caused by a tornado which struck in central and south Texas late yesterday, a partial check revealed today. The death list included twenty-five men, a woman and three children near Rungc. Seven white meV, three women, four children, and ten negroes near Frost. Two white men, two women and three negroes at Bynum. Two men at San Antonio and Bronson. Adults Contract Children's Diseases Adults can, and do, contract many children's diseases. And usually, they suffer from them much' more than children do. For distance, many adults contract worms, an ailment usually I associated with children. Sometimes they suffer intensely and take expensive medical treatments, without realizing /that worms ore the cause of their troubles. Yet, the symptoms are the same as in children, loss of appetite. and weight, grinding the teeth .'and restless sleep, itching of the nose and anus, and abdominal pains. And, the same medicine that Surely and harmlessly expels round and pin. worms from children will do the same for adults?White's Cream Vempfuge, which you can get at DeKalb Pharmacy, Camden, & C. PORK AND FBBI) Department of Agriculture Makes Suggestion to Farmers. More j>ork, end plenty af homegrown feed to grow it, is the suggestion of E. Z. Russell, swine specialist of the United States department of agriculture, to cotton farmers of the South who are looking for new sources of income this year. To give a definite idea of what he considers u sufficient amount of feed Mr. Russell ?ay? that four acres of corn should be grown for each Jitter of pigs expected this ye??r.s He figures on a yield of about five barrels of corn j>er acre and six pigs per litter. Some kind of protein supplement is necessary, adds Mr. Russell. Good pasture will supply part of the protein. Soybeans may be used as an additional protein supplement, but soybeans fed in largo amounts are sure to cause the pork to he "soft," in which case it will not command top prices. Experience has shown ^hat tankage or fish meal should usually be included as protein supplements. Good pastures are absoultely essential for successful hog falsing, Mr. Russell believos. Alfulfa is perhaps the best; all the clovers are good; and satisfactory temporary pastures can be made by sowitjg rye or oats for fail, winter and early spring use, and rape, cowpcas, and soybeans for late spring and summer. L "The grpunfi on which hogs are kept continuously becomes infested with parasftetf, particularly roundworms, and for this season pastures should be changed. If temporary pastures are usjed they should be plowed and seeded twice a year. This will provide green forage and help materially to keep down infestation. "We occasionally hear of some one who has not kept any hogs making a start by getting a few bred sows, to find later that he had forgotten about the necessary feed. Hogs can not grow and fatten without feed?and plenty of it?so our suggestion is-; j that at least reasonable assurance be had that the necessary feed will be produced before any hogs are bought."

KiIIh Five SnakeH in One Shot Woodruff.?While record* are being made here and there in every class of achievement, A. P. Smith, overseer of the weave room in the Woodruff branch of the Hrandon corporation, claims the honor of being the champion snake killed, when it comes to using only one shot.
