MEWBORN Bun Station City Drug Co. Violates Man Act; Gets Five Years Elizabeth City, June 4.?Jack Lee, 28, of New Bern, charged with vio lation of Mann Act, was sentenced to five years in the Federal prison at Atlanta, and fined $5,000 when he entered a plea of gnilty in U. S. district court here yesterday after noon. Judge I. M. Meekins said he was imposing the maximum penalty be cause it was "one of the worst cases" he ever had dealt with. i Although Lee submitted to the charge when the case was transfer red to the Elizabeth City division from New Bern, presentation of evi dence required approximately an hour. W. H. Osborne, Federal investiga tor, testified that he found Lee and Sarah Nelson, 16-year-old New Bern girl, had visited 11 states during a nine weeks' trip and that they had registered at tourist cabins and ho tels as man and wife. The girl tes tified that she no longer wants to marry Lee. She said it had been her understanding that Lee intend ed marrying her after securing a divorce from his wife. She testi fied Lee had been "paying atten tion" to her for two years prior to the trip. Ben H. Nelson, the girl's father testified that upon two different oc casions Lee had told him his daugh ter was "pure as a baby" and had promised not to see her again. When Judge Meekins passed sen tence the girl broke into tears. PLANT SUDAN GRASS FOR SUMMER GRAZING Sudan grass planted early in June is recommended for temporary pas tures to be grazed during the latter part of July and August, when the permanent pasture ia failing by rea son of dry weather. A supply of tender, green pastur age at this time will be a big help in maintaining the milk flow of cattle, says John Arey, extension dairymen at State College. It will also give the permanent pasture a chance to develop a new growth for later graz ing. Sudan seed should be sown at the rate pf 25 or 30 pounds to the acre, in a firm rich soil, and covered to a depth of one inch. Apply about 4Q0 pounds of a high grade fertilizer or 1 350 to 200 pounds of nitrate of soda J at seeding time, Arey points out. Each! acre of Sudan grass will furnish ample grazing for two to four ccws. But it should not be grazed viter the first frost, since prussic acid is liable to develop in the dying jriants. _ WHY DOCTORS GET SICK Statistics show that medical men di? at an earlier age than do those in other professions.
