Madero, candidate for the presidency
Of the republic, who was arrested
Monday night, stood before Judge
Trevino today and listened to the
court declare him formal prisoner.
Subsequently he stated that he had re-
fused the privilege of defense on the
ground that he has no faith in justice
at his time.
Judge Trevino gave as reason for
his action in holding Madero that the
deposition of Madero justified him in
ordering him held incommunicado
The newspapers of this city are
commenting freely upon the arrest
and Imprisonment of Madero, the op-
position press condemning the action
of the authorities and the government
papers praising their activity in pun
ishing what they insist is a grave
offense
Madero was arrested as he, with
his wife, was boarding a train to
leave the city. He was charged with
having assisted or aided Rogue Es-
trada, prominent anti-re-electionista,
to escape the service of warrant for
an offense which he is alleged to have
committed last Sunday, the nature of
which was not revealed. Estrada gave
himself up yesterday to the authori-
ties.

Weeds Menace to Farms.

Impure seeds are causing the farmer
of Kansas a good deal of trouble. They
buy large quantities of clover seed and
alfalfa seed and after planting 1t they
find their fields yield an abundant
crop of weeds not common to the To-
cality. In Kansas the dodder seems
to be the most dangerous weed. In
fact, a large number of the samples
sent in from over the state to the
botany department of the Agricultural
College contained dodder. Professor
Rose says chat dodder is known to
exist as an actual pest in several parts
of the state" 1t is a parasite, twining
itself about clover or alfalfa plant
and sending out little suckers which
enter the host plant wherever the dod-
der touches the stem or branches and
extracts all the ready made food ma
terials that are sent up by the roots.
After the dodder is suitably attached
it dies at the roots and becomes "a
parasite, living wholly on the host
plant and branching out extensively.
The trouble begins in spots. Upon
the examination of one of these spots
there will be seen a tangled mass of
lemon yellow, orange or pink thread
attached to the clover at many points
by suckers, that sap the vitality of the
host plant Dodder is a heavy seed
