deportation by remaining iu t li '
Sherbrooke Jail
Judge Hutchinson sustained a writ
of haeas corpus calling for his re-
lease Thaw remained dazed for possibly
three minutes The crowd began to
’cave the Judge's chamber in silence
Thaw followed aimlessly As be
crossed the threshold E Blake Rob-
ertson assistant superintendent of
immigration tapped him on tbe
shoulder and placed him officially'
under arrest as an undesirable alien
Tbe crowd then surged from the
building and it was announced that
Thaw would be taken immediately
to Coaticook for a hearing
Thaw's lawyers seemed stunned
Special officers of the immigration
department jostled them in the cor-
ridors IT1 see you iu Coaticook boys”
said Thaw waving his hand to the
reporters
Judge Hutchinson's voice trem-
bled as he read the decision which
in effect started Stanford White’s

much more drought-resistant
This department has decided to
recommend feterlta in preference to
either dwarf milo or blackbull kaffir
where these can be grown As stat-
ed it Is earlier than the common va-
feterlta We have no hesitancy In
stating that we believe that the per-
sistent fight on feterlta has cost the
farmers of Oklahoma a million dol-

crop that w ill beat tbe hot winds and

i I Feeding Value of Feterlta
and neighboring states 1
When it was first Introduced into
the state many irresponsible stories
were circulated concerning the plant
and some newspapers and farm jour-
nals not having correct Information!
about it drew on their imaginations
and printed mis-informatlon that has
left the impression on tbe minds of
Tbe feeding value of feterlta as a
grain and forage is equal in every
way to kafflr and we believe It to be
much better on account of the grain
being larger and much softer than
kaffir and can be fed to good advan-
tage without being ground which is
necessary to obtain best results with
kafflr Of course any grain is bet-
This department has prepared a
bulletin entitled "The Value of Fet-
erita us a Drought-Resistant Grain
Sorghum" which will furnish all ln-
many people that feterlta i s like
ter ground than to be fed whole
some other much-heralded crops — of
no practical value
The results obtained on the State
Demonstration Farms and at tbe va-
rlqua secondary agricultural schools
and experiment stations and by oth- jformatlon Including planting har-
ers who bave given it a thorough vesting and its value as an iusilage
trial all tend to prove that it is not etc which will be mailed on request
