yacht slaying of her lover, John
Lester Mce of Chicago.
The three Judges of the audlencla
court reached their decision In a
week-end of study, after closing of
the trial Friday.
A public prosecutor had demanded
a 20-year term for manslaughter
and a private prosecutor hired by
Mee's father, Dr. Lester E. Nfee of
Wllmctte, 111., had sought a 30-ycar

west farmers work too hard, says
ft. N. Miller, and they can cut down
on their labors by doing a little extra
work.
As extension agricultural engineer
at Washington State college. Miller
Is an authority on labor-saving
equipment for farms. He thinks
more farms should spend some time
during the slack winter season
building gadgets to save work dur
ing the busy days next summer.
Instead of sitting around the
house reading the papers (how else
could they get thene labor-saving
Inspirations?!, farmers could be out
In the shop building buck rakes and
hay hoists.
The plans for a variety of labor
saving devices are ready and waiting
at county agents' offices or at state
colleges. Miller points out. Many of
the zadgeu are Inexpensive and
simple to build.
An electric hay hoist, for example,
in the blaze. Two other guests es
caped uninjured. An Investigation
of the fire was to be made today.

and any pitchfork artist knows how
much work it can save.
Miller says a farmer easily can
build a small garden tractor from a
washing machine engine, an old
automobile wheel, a belt and some
odds and ends. He estimate that
all the parts, exclusive of the engine,
could be collected for less than 110.
Farmers who spend excess time
opening and shutting gates puzzle
Miller. He wonders why they don t
build cattle guards using more of
the ready-made plans to replace
many of their gates.

county agents throughout the

Rural ramblings:
The northwest almost monopolized
the national rankings of buttarfat
production per cow tills year. Wash,
higton state led the nation for the
second consecutive year with an
average of 37 pounds of butterfat
for cows on lest. California waa
second with 374 pounds, Oregon
third with 37, and Idaho fourth
with 399. The national average waa
349.

The 13 to 18-Inch terraces give water

They were built last fall at a cost of
