ALFALFA, CORN AND
HOG GROWERS
FROM IOWA INVESTIGATING
WASHITA RIVER BOTTOM
LANDS-MAY INVEST.

n. X. Todd and H. H. Crosby, of
Iowa, are in the country investigating
the merits of this part Of the state
for alfalfa, corn and hog growing.
They say that the highest priced farm
lands in the United States are in the
corn and hog belt of Iowa and ILL
nois, and that any country where the
corn crop is certain, where there is
plenty of shade and water for hogs,
will eventually be as high as that in
Iowa and Illinois. They have been
along the Washita Valley from Chick
asha down, and say that this country
has a great advantage over Iowa and
illinois in that it grows alfalfa per-
fectly, and that with alfalfa hogs can
be produced for one-half the price
that it requires in the northern states
where alfalfa has not yet been sue
cessfully cultivated. They have seen
two or three farms, either one Of
which suits them very well, and they
intend purchasing tracts of land and

who will attend the southern Com

en- by the former being "A Greater
Nation Through a Greater South.
The reception to the president will
be most cordial, although there is a
disposition among some of the dele

throwing his influence on the side Of
San Francisco as against New Or
leans in the contest for the Panama

Officials Make Denial.

Washington, ID. c., March 1.-THE
war department disclaims any other
object in the movement of troops to
the department of Texas, other than
for the purpose of maneuvers.
In many quarters, however, much
thought has been given to what is
regarded as unsatisfactory conditions
on the Mexican border. 1t was learn
ed today that the British minister
here a few days ago consulted the
state department regarding what
steps would be taken to protect for
eign interests in Mexico, making
known that If the United States
could not extend protection to the
British, that government might find
1t necessary to look after its own
subjects.

fight such a combination to the bit
