RALEIGH, N. C. ? Sidney Etheridge,
44, disdaining all religious ministrations
and claiming close relationship
with the devil, was jerked into
eternity from his seat in the electric
chair in State's Prison Friday for the
brutal murder and robbery of Mrs.
Mamie Moore. 71-year-old Onslow
County recluse, whose hoardings may
have been $3,000 or more.
The electrocution, the 150th in the
State's chair, was witnessed by several
Genera! Assembly members, including
Dr. C. A. Peterson. Mitchell
County Republican, who has introduced
a bill to supplant the electric
chair with a lethal gas chamber as a
method of execution. The legislators
agreed that the electrocution was by
no means as horrible as they had been
led to believe by newspaper stories
seeking to show the horror and stop
capita) punislunent.
Ethendge asked for half a pint of
liquor before his death. This was denied.
His emblem, he said, was the
black cat. He denied his guilt.
TRT CK FERTHJZEK
As a general fertilizer for most
truck and garaen crops, a mixture
containing 5 per cent nitrogen, 7 per
cent phosphoric acid, and 5 per cent
potash gives satisfactory results.
Leafy crops such as cabbage, lettuce,
and kale will require more nitrogen
but this can be supplied iri the form
of side-applications. The kind and
amount of fertiiibers together with
tile time of application for the various
garden crops are given in Extension
