INDIANA CORN ! BEST IN YEARS Purdue Expert Forecasts Best Corn Crop In Several Years Lafayette. lud., Sept. 14—(U.R) — | Average rainfall and temperature) slightly above normal during Aug | um has assured Indiana the best | corn crop in several years, agricultural statisticians at Purdue University reported today. M M. Justin, Purdue University j expert, forecast a corn yield of' 186,480.009 bushels, nearly "00,000 bushels more than last year. He ! reported the crop 90 per cent of normal, compared with 47 per cent I last year and 74 per cent for the 1923-32 average. "With the exception of a few ■ fields, most of Indiana corn on' Sept. 1 was far enough advanced to escape frost damage and was comparatively free of weeds." I Justin pointed out. With its condition nearly 12 ; points above a year ago and only j one point below thq 10 year aver-' age. the state's oats crop was esti- j i mated at 45.535.000 bushels, as | compared with 38.502,000 last year I 1 and a five year average of 63,810,-1 I 000 bushels. Purdue agricultural experts re-1 ported the oats crop as above av-! erage except for 16 or 18 northern ' Indiana counties where it is some-1 what below average. The 193" Indiana barley crop ■ • was forecast to be 624.000 bushels i i nearly twice as much as last year's j I average yield. Justin estimated! that 162.000 bushels of buckwheat j will be harvested iu Indiana fields this fall. Potato production is expected to j equal 5,358,000 bushels this year i average production of 5,198,000 ■ as compared with the five year bushels. A total harvest of 460.000 bushels of sweet potatoesi will be dug in Indiana this fall.

Justin said. The state's soy Iman barvest apparently will reach 1,389,000 bushels, according to the Purdue agriculturalist. He said, however, that on Sept. 1 much of the crop was still green with very few leaves beginutag to turn yellow. Justin reported the condition of all fruits in the state as "materially above the 10-year average." While the smallest number of heus and pullets was reported on farms for many years, the eggs produced per 100 bens were the highest since 1925, with the exception of the year 1931. accordbig to Purdue records. Purdue agricultural department records show that except for 1935 a larger per eentage of cows were

’The Silver Rood Mystery" by Lewis Allen Browne

S—— ——■ —— SYNOPSIS Gerard Montieth, wealthy, 50, ii murdered in his library mid-after noon The weapon is a silver rood supposedly; really a stiletto with thi blade secreted. For years it hun; on the library wall as an ornament It was hanging there when found fifty feet from the dead man. Mon tieth had told his niece, Mary, tha 1 he would disinherit her unless sh< married David Forrest, son of hii friend and neighbor. Mary think: she loves Howard Griswold, art in structor. It is known that Mary left the Forrest grounds that aftefl noon, where a party was held, anc went home, and that she met Griswold on the grounds. A painting supposedly a Van Dyck copy, i: stolen and an alleged art experl named Lardeau was known to hav< been there that afternoon. A new maid is another one under suspicion, as well as Brauman, a gardener, seen hanging about the library porch where the body was found. CHAPTER XI Mason, my father-in-law’s butler had just brought another bottle ol scotch and was tapping on the dooi when Dave stepped in. “One of your guards is out here Sergeant,” he said, “and wants you at once.” We ail went out together. The officer was on the veranda. He stepped over to Harper and whispered something. “Come on!” Harper said to us and hurried down, following the guard. “What’s up?” I asked. “Some man has hanged himseli down here!” ’ We hurried down, through the stile and over to a sycamore, where the body was on the ground. “I cut him down, but he’s dead," the guard said. Harper flashed a light. “It’s Brauman, the gardener!" Foxcroft criad. “Yes,” I agreed, “it’s Brauman." Harper knelt and examined him. “He’s gone, but still warm. What was 'round his neck?” The guard who cut him down, used the flashlight and found the piece of rope that he had untied from the gardener’s neck when he cut him down. “Clothes line, or window cord,” i said Harper. Foxcroft stared and said nothing. I could guess that he was still obsessed with the belief that Howard Griswold was the guilty man. This rather upset him. It looked very much as though Brauman had committed suicide through remorse—through a growing terror that his rrime would be found out. I flashed a light to the limb of the tree. There was an overturned cement urn under the limb. Braumai., evidently, had upturned the urn, stood on it, adjusted the rope and jumped off. It was a tall, three foot urn. A gardener would be likely to think of just such a thing to use. I set up the urn, got on it and untied the other part of the I rope, examining it with the flashlight. Sergeant Harper had sent the guard to get someone to take the body to Greatport, the county seat. Foxcroft agreed that calling a coroner would be unnecessary. “It was a window cord, not a clothesline,” I told them, and showed them the rusted loop where a window weight had been suspended. They agreed with me. “Now listen,” Foxcroft said, earnestly, “there is no need to spread this, to disturb anyone either at the Montieth home or at Forrest’s. Just get the body away. You see, a man might have forty reasons for wanting to end it all. We may

I set up the urn, got on it and untied the other part of the rope.

e “This bird got panicky and expected to be nabbed every minute. I have ” seen ’em that way before, many a time.” Foxcroft made no comment. We left Harper there and went d back to the house.

“Montieth was killed with that blade, there isn’t a doubt of it. The autopsy proved it I doubt if he lived, that is, was conscious, ten seconds after he was stabbed." “Give me the silver rood," Harper said, “it wouldn’t do any harm tc hang it back on the library wall < for a while, we might get some new dope—someone might try to steal or, not knowing that we knew about it, try to clean the hidden blade." We agreed. Doctor Sutton said that he would go over to the morgue and take a look at the suicide. “I don’t see how 1 can be of use tomorrow," Foxcroft told us. "I am goinjg to New York, to see my cousin, Colton, about that Professor Lardeau. My opinion is that he sneaked in and stoba. the painting, but had nothing to do with the mur der.” We dropped him off at his home in South Cove, which is four miles < from Greatport. Harper and 1 went on, up to the Montieth home There was a guard at the door. Davison was still up. We told him to get j some sleep, and went to the library I alone. We put the innocent looking silver rood back on the little hook where it had been banging for sc many years. Harper wound a mere filament of wire he had brough: with him, around the rood and the hook in such away that if anyone lifted it off, the delicate thread of wire would be broken.
