trial ^In New Jeney on
ot^ jbfetH]«gTee_ murder-
death oi the. UndbOrgh baby,
was announced^ today. District
Attorney Samuel 3. Foley of the
Bronx will confer with New Jer-
aoy authorities tomorrow regard
ing extradition.
■ Foley said the-conference will
Inrolre procedure to be followed
in transferring the stolid Ger
man carpenter to Flemlngton, N.
J., where the murder trial would
be held.
j The Bronx prosecutor announc
ed plans for the conference after
. QoYerhor A. Harry Moore, of
^ew Jersey, had said that his
state plans to try Hauptmann
before the extortion case in the
Bronx is brought to trial.
. Attorney-General David T.
Wllentz, of New Jersey, personal
ly will'take charge of the prose
cution of Hauptmann.
Wllentz conferred with Gov
ernor Moore and Col. H. Norman
Schwartzkopf, chief of New Jer,-
sey state police, before announce
ment was made that New Jersey
virtually is ready to take Haupt-
in custody.
Extortion Trial Delayed
^At-the same time District At
torney Samu"l J. Foley, in the
Bronx, explained that technical
difficulties will prevent trial of
the prisoner on the extortion
charge by October 10, as origin
ally planned. Foley has indicat
ed all along that New York will
not oppose a request for extra
dition of Hauptmann to the
neighboring state.
Governor Moore, at Trenton,
pointed out that trial of Haupt
mann on a first-degree murder
■charge in New Jersey would be
the more reasonable procedure,
rather than having him tried
first for extortion in New York.
Were Hauptmann convicted of
extortion in the Bronx, the tech
nical obstacles to his extradition
might be such that his removal
to New Jersey would be delayed.
Haiick Assistant
Anthony .M. Hauck, Jr., youth
ful prosecutor of Hunterdon
county, who would, under the
present plan, be the attorney-
general’s assistant in the case
against Hauptmann, attended
the Conference in Trenton. ,
^.Selectldn of a special Jury pan
el In the Bronx would delay
trial of the extortion case, Fo
ley said. He intends to go inlo
county court Wednesday and ask
thst jury commissioners prepare
a panel of 200.
Foley left his office on what
he termed a "shopping expedi
tion" during the day. It was on
a similar jaunt several days ago
that he discovered a mysterious
woman witness, considered to
hold Important evidence in the
case.
Kentucky Offers New Anifle
The Bronx district attorney
revealed that Sheriff John Ful
ton, of Jackson county, Ken
tucky, has telegraphed him that
a man named "John” has been
spending money lavishly there
recently. Foley wired at once for
detailed Information abbnt the
man.
Detectives who continued their
minute examination of Haupt
mann’s home today found a New
York auto license plate Imbedded
in the concrete floor of the
house. The plate bore the num
ber 5U2338, and was for 1932.
It was taken to the district at
torney’s office.
A second plate issued in 1931
bore the license number 7U5221.
It was Issued to Aunibaledi Luc-
cia, of New York city, for a
1930 Chevrolet sedan.
Deposited Gold in 1933
Reporting on the thorough
check that is being made of
Hauptmann’s past finances, the
district attorney said that on
March 13, 1933, when the gov
ernment called in gold coin and
certificates, Hauptmann deposit
ed $750 in gold certificates and
bciween $500 and $600 in gold
coin at the Central Savings
Bank.
On the same day he exchanged
*40, $170 and $370 in gold cer
tificates for other money. Foley
declared. It was recalled that
Hauptmann insists he came by
the Lindbergh ransom money
after his friend, Isidor Fisch, had
left it with him in a cardboard
box. Hauptmann told police he
did not know the box contained
money until about four weeks
ago.

Small Grain Yield Is
Increased by Fertilizer
will
Planters of small grains
Hnd it profitable to use more fer
tilizer this fall than they have
recently, says E. C. Blair, exten
sion agronomist at State college.
During the depression, he says,
many growers, especially In the
western part of the state, formed
the habit of sowing small grains
without fertilizer. The result
was low yields and light-weight
grain.
There was some excuse, he
said, for this practice when
wheat was down to 70 cents a
bushel and oats at 30 cents. But
prices are better now and the
small cost of fertilizer will be
more than returned in extra and
better yields, Blair says.
Good fertilizer for small grains
on clay soils of average fertility
in western North Carolina is
composed of 200 pounds of 16
per cent superphosphate and 25
pounds of muriate of potash for
each acre of grain. The ferti
lizer should be applied at plant
ing time. In the spring, be
tween March 1 and 15, a top
dressing should be applied at the
rate of 75 to 100 pounds of ni
trate of soda or some other nitro
gen carrier.
On thin soils it is well to add
25 pounds of nitrate of soda or
sulphate of ammonia to the
superphosphate and potash ferti
lizer applied in the fall. The
amount of potash should be in
creased to 40 or 50 pounds on
sandy, blackjack, and slate soils,
and the superphosphate reduced
to 150 pounds.
On fertile red soils, increase
the superphosphate to 300 or
400 pounds to the acre and the
iiotash to 50 pounds. Some
growers on very rich soils get
good results by using 600 pounds
of superphosphate. These are
soils yielding 30 to 40 bushels of
wheat to the acre.

PRODUCTION CONTROL
BRINGS BETTER PRICES'
The rise in cotton prices from
five to ten cents a pound, togeth
er with the AAA benefit pay
ments, nearly doubled the Income
of cotton growers in 1933.
Cotton is oringing around 12
cents this year and Indications
are that the 1934 income will be
larger than that in 1933. Pros
pects for the market in 1935 are
also good, says Dean I. 0. Schaub,
of State college.
“This substantial rise in prices
shows one important reason why
the south is leading the progress
toward economic recovery,’’ says
the dean. "Prosperity in the
south has a tendency to rise and
fall with the economic status of
cotton growers.”
The program of the Agricul
tural Adjustment administration
in controlling production and re
ducing the surplus la largely re
sponsible for the increased in
come of the cotton growers, he
observed.
In 1933, the growers started
out with an increased acreage in
a futile attempt to increase their
Income. Had the entire crop
matured, the_ production would
have exceeded 17,500,000 bales.
This amount added to the carry
over would have given the United
States a supply of 29,000,000
bales.
‘ But the plow-up campaign in j
1933 limited production to 13,-
000,000 bales. This year the re
duction program limited the
planting to 27,400,000 acres, on
which a crop of 9,252,000 bales
is expected.
In contrast to the 26,000,000
bale supply two years ago, the
United States will have about
20,000,000 bales this year. To
this lower supply may be attrib
uted much of the rise In prices,
Schaub says, although other fac
tors also Influenced the market
trends.
