TROUBLE IN MEXICO
NOW SEEMS: Imminent
Revolutionary Party Is Taking
Advantage of Rodriguez
Incident.

Ell PASO, Tex, November 1S-The be-
lief is held here that the revolutionist
faction Of Mexico is taking advantage of
the Rodriguez incident to forward its
plans. Sympathizers with plans to over
throw the present regime in Mexico in
this city express qualification over each
demonstration reported and hint that the
trouble has only begun.
Mexicans living in this city and across
the river in Juarez are, however. for the
most part loyal to President Dia1 and
warmly condemn all efforts Of revolu-
tionary nature. The demonstrations
which have taken place are minimized
and declared to indicate nothing Of the
spirit or sentiment of the people.
No Disorder at Marathon.
A special from Marathon at 2:30 this
morning states that the town 10 quiet
and that no immediate trouble is ex-
pected there. The scouts sent out have
not returned. 1t had been reported that
a band Of sixty Mexicans was marching
on the town.
A report has been received here Of the
killing in the state Of Durango Mex, Of
John r. Lockhart. but details aIe meager
One report has it that he was killed by
a former employee, a Mexican, with whom
he had had some business troubles, and
another says that he was killed In de-
Tending a mine from an attack Oh robbers
The killing occurred at Gatos in the
mountains and a courier brought the
news to Durango.

Resting Land.

Have you field that you intend "a
rest this year by letting the old
stalks of corn or cotton stand and
grass and weeds grow all summersI
Do you think the land is resting when
1t is growing this sort of stuff to
seed the land and give you grass in
the crop another year? Is the and
not just as hard at work growing
weeds and grass as it would be in
growing crops for feed and soil inn
provement? Would it not be better
for the land and the stock and your
pocket to have peas on that resting
field? But you say, peas are too
high-priced." They are not as high
priced as the crop of weeds and grass
that will grow there if you leave the
land out, for it will cost more money
to Kill the grass next summer than
to SOW the peas this summer Then
you lose a crop of forage and the
benefit the peas would be to your
land. Besides, this talk about the
nigh price of peas comes with a bad
grace from farmers who should sell.
You cannot afford not to sow peas,
and to give them the phosphate acid
and potash they need, if you have
any regard for the future of your
farm. The best way in the world to
rest land is to keep it at work grow =
manure, make the soil better and
make the owner richer.-Progressive
Farmer.

The One Crop to Plow Under.

l have frequently been asked if you
would not put more nitrogen and hu-
mus in the soil to plow the legume
crops under entire rather than save
them for hay. OF course, We will
get more humus- making material at
once by turning under a crop of peas
or vetch, but we are confronted by
the fact that these crops have a high
value, and that they can be fed to
stock, and by far the larger part
of their manurial value can be recov-
cred in the manure if it is carefully
saved
Hence, as rule it is poor farm
economy to ploW under these plants
before using them as feed. To this,
there is no exception. This is the
crimson clover crop. This comes at
a season when it is especially hard
to cure it we'll for hay, and l have
long since come to the conclusion
that the. best use for crimson clover
is for making corn and cotton. We
can let the clover come to full ma
turity and die and then plow it un-
der and have time in all parts Of the
South to make crop of corn, and in
the far South, to make cotton crop

clover made into hay, but have never

is apt to mold more than any other
hay. Then, too, if the cutting is de-
l1YCd till the heads clOngate and Get
brown below, the hay is rather dam
cgous FOR horses. Hence, I believe
that ! would always make an eXccp-
tion of crimson clover and use it as
manure direct.-Progrcssive Farmer.

The South Great Variety of Legumes

There are many species Of legume
plants, and many have been tried as
renovating crops. Some of them
have been dropped out. either be-
cause the forage made from them is
not good or not relished by stock, or
because they have been found un-
suited to various sections.
The two legumes that have become
of the greatest value in most parts
of the South are the cowpea and GRIM
son or annual clover, the one for
summer and the other for winter soil
two plants make a team that will do
more for the general area Of the
South than anything that can be
grown, the one for hay and the other
for plowing under in the spring, after
the waste of the soil all winter.
In the far South the velvet bean
has great value and may super
sede the cowpea as a forage maker.
In Florida the beggar weed has been
found valuable, but it's value de-
creases rapidly as we come northward
until in the larger part of the South
II Is simply a weed. The velvet bean,
while Of great value where it natures,
soon reaches a point northward where
the cowpea will laways beat it. In
favorable seasons it will mature in
the far southeastern sections of North
Carolina. and even in the central part
OF the State 1t will make an immense
amount Of forage. Planted in rows
eight feet apart at Raleigh, they made
mass over the whole ground half
waist deep. i believe that in all the
warmer parts of the South the velvet
bean can be made very profitable for
green soiling TO cattle.
Much has been said in regard to the
vetches and especially in regard to
what is known as the Hairy vetch or
Sand vetch. Where some grain like
wheat is sown with the Hairy vetch,
to sustain it off the ground it will
make a Tine hay crop from fall SOW
ing, and can be gotten off the ground
in time to grow crop Of cowpea hay,
| and TO leave the land in crimson
clover in the fall.
! once sowed wheat and vetch in
the fall, cut the crop i'm May and
cured it for hay sowed the land in
cowpeas and cut these for hay and
had a fair stand Of alfalfa ON the
land before cold weather. This, of
course. with liberal use of acid phos-
phatc and potash. in the lower Miss
sSippi valley the stations have found
that the soil is plcntifully supplied
with potash. but even there it Will not
do 10 ignore the needs of the lcgumes
for phosphoric acid which, with nj
