The Maryland University extension

( rowing conditions, for wheat,- rye
and hay were regarded as above the
average while un increased apple crop
and decreased peach crop were predicted.
Strawberries and canning peu

Virginia likewise reported generally
more favorable crop prospects ttH of
.June 1 although cool weather retarded
the growth of corn, cotton and peanuts.
Hay prospects were regarded
us very good with a possibility of reduced
wheat yield as a result of rust.
North Carolina reported Its tobacco
crop as "mighty good in sections but
spotted in others." A late cotton crop
was In prospect In that state and
small grains were reported In good

Two Men Killed In
Mill Strike Rioting
Union, June 19.?Two men were
shot to death an<| a l&*yearol<l hoy
wounded today in strike rioting at
tho Monarch plant hero of the Monarch'
Mills company.
A. L. Stints, t?3, employe of tho
mill's card room force, and W. U.
Franklin, Q7, ? magistrate's constable,
were killed. George Tucker, Ifi, a
bystander, wan wounded In the leg. j
the bullet partially severing a tendon
Just above the ankle.
The rioting broke out as the textile
mill chunked ahlfta at the noon
hour. A part of the force of 800
went on strike last night and as those
who worked duriug the forenoon left
tho plant through picketing atrlkers,
several fist fights began.
In a few minutes there, was a general
melee, broken by the sound of
shots. The battlers fled, leaving
Htutte and Franklin lying dead. Both
men had been killed Instantly. Stutts
was shot through the left chest and
Franklin through tho left side.
No one could give a clear story of
the shooting, but Hhoriff James G.
Faucett said he hud received two accounts.
One wuh that Stutts was killed by
Franklin and that George Royaler, a
special policeman for the mill, killed
Franklin. Tho other was that Roystor
killed both men, accidentally,
hitting Stutts In shooting at Franklin.
No charges were preferred against
Royster Immediately. Crowds gathered
ubout the mill again a few minutes
after the rioting and angry
threats were shouted at the special
policeman who was In the mill building.
The plant closed down and Sheriff
Faucett ordered all liquor shops in
Union to close. He acted upon orders
of Governor Olin D. Johnston In
closing the liquor shops.
Coroner George Noland suid an inquest
would be held, but did not immediately
set a time for It.
Stutts was said to be one of those
who went to work In the plant this
morning despite the walkout early
last night which caused the mill to
shut down until this morning.
The plant whistles blew as usual
this morning and a part of the force
went to work while the strikers
congregated outside and formed picket
lines. The opening was without
disorder, hut the situation was tense
and Sheriff Faucett by telephone had
asked Governor Olin D. Johnston to
suggest to mill officials that they
close the plant.
The governor was in conversation
with the mill office at the time of the
shooting. Reports from Columbia
said the shots were heard over the
telephone by the chief executive. He
advised he was coming here immediately
to make a personal investigation.
A demand from workers that a new
employe be fired and another man
taken on. which was refused by the
management, precipitated the walkout,
tjie strikers said. First to leave
were 2 a employes of the spinning
room. Other workers joined them
this morning and the strikers said
the plant opened with less than half
a normal force.
Weevil Interest
Shifts Upstate
| Clemson College. June 17.?Since
j most of the cotton iy (lie Coastal secI
Hon is now rapidly passing the size
' when applications of sweetened pois|
on. might be ipplied, interest and activity
in weevil control center in the
I'icdmont section where in certain
counties considerable interest is
! shown. One Piedmont county agent
reports that in to :">() machines for the
application of sweetened poison were
purchased by farmers in his county
during the past rwo weeks.
Fstiroafes by county agents of the
acreage receiving applications of
....... , . it H ?- l I >: > I I I I Ct"
lourths of otn- per cent in so no- of
'h? Coastal counties to as high us 50
per cent in otic Piedmont county
where heavy losses were sustained
during 1934.
Square infestations are generally
reported in the Coastal section. In
some instances exceeding in |H>r cent.
Several agents report that fanners
lixve reconditioned dusting machines
and have already applied dnst to
fields having a large" percentage of
pant tured squares. Since weevil intestations
are often localized, farmers
are advised by W. C. Nettles, extension
entomologist, to make square
counts so that they may dust if conditions
justify.
To use more than four to six pounds
of calcium arsenate dust per acre for
each application is unwise, Mr. Nettles
warns. To exceed this recommended
amount may oaqse severe
plant louse infestation and injury to
the lighter soils. Information on weevil
control may he found in Kxtension
Circular 104, "Boll Weevil Control."
Two Boys Killed
By Lightning
Greenville. June 19.?John Pershing
Odom, 17, and Willie Odom. his
12 year-old brother, wore killed in the
Lebanon section or Greenville county
by lightening yesterday. The bolt
struck a tree near a well where the
boys were watering two mules.
The hoys were sons of Mr. and Mrs.
D. B. Odom. Lighening which struck
the Odom home fourteen years ago
killed two other children.

Normandie Breaks Transatlantic Record!
Crossing the Atlantic in record breaking time, the Normandrfr-arrlved In New York this week with nr,0.r?.'litg J
2,000 passengers aboard. The top photo shows the ship itself?the largest floating object In the world?
picture on the left was taken in France, just before sailing; It shows hundreds of barrels of marine oil D - H
taken aboard to lubricate the ship's 160,000 horsepower motors?enough to propel ten average ships# on ?
right is shown the prow of the ship In drydock.
NEW YORK CITY (Special)?
When the Normandio steamed into
New York harbor this week after
breaking every trans-Atlantic mart- i
timo speed record, it meant that the
dream of ship designers and en- !
gineers had at last come true.
For here is a ship that is the
largest moving object in the world
?and it had proven Itself, both from
a standpoint of speed and operating
economy, to be everything its designers
had hoped.
Amazing Size
To give an idea of the amazing
slzo of the ship: j
The 160,000 horsepower which her |
dynamos dovelop would bo enough j
to propel ten average ships.
She has a generating capacity suf- j
flctent to supply all electricity needs
for & city the size of Boston.
It would bo enough to operate
140,000 radio stations; or to drive
100 steam locomotives; or light
more than 5,000,000 lamps!
Yet this entire power plant 4&*
pends on a film of oil less than one
fiftieth of an Inch thick to lubricate I
the huge shafts which literally float
a total horsepower equal to that of
2,000 automobiles driven at top
speed.
Thus America played a part In
the success of the Normandie, for
the ship is lubricated by SoconyVacuum?the
same company which
makes the Moblloil that ia used by
American motorists.
Turbo-Electric Motors
Tho Norrrtandic's engines are of
the turbo-electric type. Huge boilers
manufacture steam which, In
turn, is harnessed for the manufacture
Of electrictty. Purring electric
motors turn four twenty-threeton
propellers of gleaming bronze
alloy.
The important task assigned to
tho power plant can best be realized
by visualizing a moving object
which would fill Times 8quaro and,
if miraculously transported to
Fifth Avenue, would crush the facades
of tho buildings on either side
and extend from Forty-Second to
Forty-Sixth Streets. Tho NoTmandlo
stood on end alongside the EmpW?
State Building would tower to
eighty-sixth floor.
Yet this great mass was able 1? I
average 29.6 knots on her trans-Ai- I
lantlc voyage, so fast that a trip* I
leas than five days can be assured I
and a four-day crossing become * H
common experience. Three of th? I
fastest ships in the French LI0* I
service have been required in the
past to maintain the weekly
ings in both directions between the
United States and France, but tvro
ships of the Normandie typo could I j
maintain this weekly service wi?. I
ease. *
