' Stones of Horrible Crimes Commit ted Against' Armenians Evidence 3 of Inhuman Treatment Made Pub lic. , New York Dispatch, Oct. 3. Documentary evidence of the atro cities inflicted by the Turks upon the Armenians was made public tonight by the committee formed by Charles R." Crane, Cleveland H. Dodge and others to investigate the facts of the Armenians massacres and which also is taking steps to aid sufferers. Thecommittee states that the evidence-was collected from sources that aTf. unquestioned of the Writ ers, but that for obvious reason their -names cannot be given and in most cases names of towns and cities must be concealed. Quotations are given in the com mittee's report from 24 so ..ices, some cf which describe in detail in stances where Armenians have been put to death, women violated and children slaughtered, of robbery, tor. tue, and death by starvation and of terrible privations endured in long marches to the desert regions to which the Armenians have been ex iled crimes described as surpassing "in their horror and cruelty anything that history has recorded during the past 1,000 years." "The idea of-direct-attack and massacre, carried out in former times," says one authority, writing under date of August 3, "has been altered somewhat in that the men and beys have been deported in great numbers and , disappeared en route and later on thft women and chil dren have been mnde to follow. For some time stories have been preval ent from letters arriving from the in terior of the killing of males and of grant numbers of bodies along the roadsides and floating in the JSuph rates river of the delivery to the Kurds, by the gendarmes accompany ig the convoys, of women and chil dren of all the younger members of the parties; of unthinkable outrages committed. by gendarmes and Kurds and even the killing of many vie tims." A writer tells of the cruel use of the bastinado iu a certain prison where Armenians were held. "At the time of the Romans," he writes, "40 strokes were administer, ed at the very most;- in this place, however, 200, 300, 500 and even 800 strokes were administered. A young man was beaten to death within the space of five minutes." Another authority telling of the expulsion of the Armenian inhabi tants, writes: "They (the men) were sent off to ward in groups of -from-30 150. Various - reports have been circulated, the only one generally ac cepted being that they were killed. "On July 5, before the order for the expulsion of the women was 'car- ried out. went to the Govern ment to protest. He was told that the order came from those higher UP WOMEN CARRIED POISON "The panic in the city was terri ble. The people felt that the Gov ernment was determined to extermi nate the Armenian race.

In a similar description of scenes attending the expulsion of Armen lans from another community, a writer says: "By July 6 all the Armenian houses in about 1,000,. had been emptied of inhabitants and the peo ole sent off. A number of lighters have been laded with people at dif ferent times and sent off towards It is crenerallv believed Colds should be "nipped In the bud", for if Allowed to run unchecked, serious results may follow. Numerous cases of consumption, pneu monia, and other fatal dis eases, can be traced back to a cold.

"The 1,000 Armenian houses," the account continues, "are being emp tied of furniture by the police, one after the other. A crowd of Turk ish women and children follow the police about like a lot of vultures and sieze everything they can lay their hands on." YOUNG AND OLD EXILE . From another Armenian town, an authoritv reports: "Those poor exiles were mostly women, children and old men and thev were clubbed and beaten an lashed along "as though they had been wild animals. About 2.000 have passed through, all more dead than alive; many hundreds have died from starvation and abuse along the roadside and nearly all are dying of starvation and thirst." . ' Recorded as the testimony of the widow of a harrowinsr story is eiven of the experiences of . m r f r A . Ot a party ct some ouu Armenians, one and her daughter escaped death by accepting the Mohammedan faith. She says: "We had got only two hours away from home when bands of villagers and brigands, with rifles, guns, axes, etc., surrounded us and robbed us of all we had. The gendarmes took my money and that from my daugh ter's neck, also our food. After this, thev. Feperated the men, one by one and shot them all wjthin six or sev en days pvery male above 15 years of age. These bandsmen took all the good-looking women and carried them off on their horses.

"The worst and most unimagina ble terrors were reserved for us at thp hanks of theN'Euphrates and in the Organization plain. The mutilat ed bodies' of women, girls and lit tie children made everybody shud der. The bandsmen were doine all sorts of awful deeds to the women and girls that were with us.

The last estimate of , the United States Department of Agriculture filaced the corn crop of North Caro ina at 59,600,000, which is two mil lion more bushels than was produced last year. "It is a remarkable stride forward toward independence," says the University News Letter. Such an increase is certainly most noteworthy and one of the most marked industrial achievements ever accomplished in the State. 'This tre mendous increase shows what per sistent cooperative work will accom- plish. For seven years now the Agri cultural College, the State Depart ment of Agriculture, with the co operation of the Federal Department of Agriculture, have untiringly worked to secure a bigger corn crop. Through the Boys' Corn Clubs, the Demonstration Agents, Farmers In stitutes. Farmers Conventions . and through the Experiment Station staff the necessity of growing feed crops has been emphasized both In season md out of season 'The results v ob tained should encourage-all-- these workers to even greater efforts. The average yield per acre of eon has increased seven bushels since the work was outlined and begun seven years ago but we still need more corn; for that reason the efforts will be con tinued. With the present acreage it is estimated that an average acre yield of thirty bushels will be needed to supply the State More live stock and increased population will then create a demand for a still greater in crease which increase the Extension.
