DRY LAND FARMING
New Feeding Grain Which May
Prove Useful to Big Bend
Farmers.

Denver. Colo, Dec. 20.-Accord-
ing to Prof. |. D. Buffum, former
ly of the Colorado Agricultural Col
lege and now in charge of the Wor-
land Experimental Farm in the Big
Horn Basin, Wyo., a new cattle
feeding grain has been developed at
the Wyoming farm after four years
experimenting.
The grain. which is a cross be-
tween the Russian spent and Amer
lean wheat, is called ommer.
1t is said to be drouth resisting,
adapted to irrigated or arid soil, and
capable of giving a yield of from
80 to 100 bushels to the acre.
This grain. it is believed, may
prove TO be OF considerable benefit
20 the farmers of the Big Bend coun-
try, and especially to those portions
which are semi-arid.

Fish Of Many Values.

Down In the rivers and lakes OF thu
Mexican state of Tabasco there swims
a fish known as the Crocodile fish,"
which, according to a letter received
at the department of commerce and
labor from United States Consul AL.
phonse Lespinasse of Frontier. is the
most useful member of the fnny tribe
known to man.
The skin of the fish. If properly
cured, may be utilized for any pur.
pose for which the lighter weights of
leather are employed. Its oil is a
perfect lubricant and also is used for
softening leather. In addition It DOS
sesses medicinal qualities for which
superiority to the finest of Norwegian
cod liver is claimed.
The flesh of the crocodile fish Is ex-
tensively used by the natives as food
and highly relished by them as one of
the delicacies of the country. The
ish ranges in length from ten inches
% four feet and when dried assumes
IN ashen hue with lighter standings Of
4 blush tint A concession has been
granted by the Mexican government to
Axplolt the fisheries.

FEARS AIRsHIPs.
Aerial Passenger Lines to Be Kept
From Frontier.

Berlin-So widespread has become
the alarm in military circles at the
danger of espionage that the airshir
passenger line recently opened at
Strassburg may have to be abandoned.
the military authorities complain
that many passengers on the initial
trips were foreigners and that some of
them carried cameras. Fear that pho
tographs will be made of the fortifica-
tions of Strassburg and other defensive
works near the French border has led
to the demand that the airship line be
transferred to some other place.
Since the arrest of two Englishmen
on the island of Borkum on the charge
OF espionage, the spy scare has been
growing. Military experts assert that
espionage is carried on among the Eu-
ropean powers to an extent hitherto
unprecedented One result of the
alarm is the demand that the regula-
tions regarding the admission of visit
ors to the North Sea islands be made
much more stringent. 1t is proposed
that civilians shall be warned away
from Heligoland entirely and the island
converted into second Gibraltar.

CLOSED SHOP LEGAL.
Judge Refuses to Issue Injunction
Against Unions.

st Louis The opinion Of Judge
Smith Mcpherson. who denied the ap-
plication of C. W Post, of Battle
Creek, Mich, for an injunction to re-
strain the American Federation of
Labor officials and Buck Stove &
Range company, of this city, from en-
tering into closed shop agreement,
was filed in the United States Circuit
court here. Judge Mcpherson decid-
ed the case in chambers at his home in
Red Oak, Ia.
The tentative agreement, the ratifi-
cation of which Mr.. Post opposed, the
court says, was reached some six
weeks ago.
Judge Mcpherson continues:
Complainant then knew of it. He
has remained silent until the last few
days, when he filed his bill of com
plant asking for the injunction. He
