-your land before frost cuts it. down. AS
soon as frost falls the nitrates in the
grass are in a condition to be washed
away by the first rain that comes. If
YOU turn the whole mass into the
ground when still green, the chances
are. that you will save the greater part
of the nitrogen. OF course, there is
such a thing as turning a crop down
when it is too full of water to secure
the best results, but turning under a
crop when it is in good condition to
make hay will never prove injurious eI-
cept in an extremely dry season. If
your ground is very dry and you have
had no rains. it will be better to wait a
little while in the hope that better
season will be secured than exists in
many sections of the state at the pres
ent time. There will be no objection to
breaking this, land nine or ten inches
deep with two-horse pillow, especially
if you expect to leave il exposed to tne
winter freezes and plant next spring. If
you intend to sow to cereals this fall,
relatively shallow breaking would prob
ably be better, that is, five to SIX
inches. OF course, it is desirable that
you break up the tenacious subsoil IN
der your land which you say exists at a
depth of five to six inches, as that may
tend to form a hard pan and prevent
the roots from striking into the soil
readily or the movement of moisture
up from the lower areas. You can over
come this difficulty by subsoiling whice
is best done in the fall Of the year.
Cotton seed may be used as part of
the fertilizer for oats, especially when
mixed with stable manure and compost
ed for a few days. 1t would always be
better in our judgment to sell the seed
and use the meal as a source OF feed

 ALL AMENDMENTS

 Doomed

Washington, June 7.-Following four procity bill by the Senate finance com mittee in executive session today. Chair man Penrose expressed the opinion that any amendment which might be adopt ed by the committee would be killed on the floor of the Senate. 1t was thought at first some compromise might be reached on the Root amendment to the paper and wood pulp clause, but such a compromise was found impos- sible. It is not believed any amend ment other than that offered by Sen ator Root will have even chance oi adoption in committed.
 It was the first day of executive con sideration of the bill. It was declared doubtful whether the committee would be ready to report the measure tomor- row. Most of today's sesison was de- voted to debate over the Root amend ment
 Secretary of State Knox was sum- moned before the committee to en- tighten it as to any understanding be- tween the framers of the agreement which might clear the situation as to the Root amendment but he told the committee they had the entire agree ment before them and had therefore as much knowledge as he as to tho ef- feet of amendments. He declined to answer definitely the question as to whether In his opinion the Root amend ment would kill the measure.

Capital Receives Hero of
 Revolution With Much Enthusiasm
MADERO MAKES
 LIBERTY SPEECH
Says Spirit of Liberty Will Not Be Satisfied Until Democracy
 Reigns in Whole American 1 Continent

Mexico City. June 7.--ewhen a peo- l pie fight for liberty and conquer, the | triumph is well received In neigh boring g countries. The spirit of liberty will not
 be satisfied and we all will really not
 be happy until in the whole American continent the reign of democracy Is | complete" This sentiment was fore most in the speech of Francisco I. Ma dero, Jr., to thousands of people, in- [cluding many Latin-Americans from ad- iacent countries. who serenaded him ir front of his home here tonight as a climax to his vociferous welcome to the apital.
 Led by the Venezuelan colony, the throng that cheered Madero for fully 10 minutes burst into an almost fren- zied shout when he bespoke the hope that Central and South American coun- tries would participate in the era of civic freedom which he believes has dawned in Latin America.
 For hours the crowd waited at the Madero home, where the former rebel chief gave a reception to many of his friends here, following day of tumul- tuous demonstration and when he ap- peared on the balcony of his house, the silk tri-color which he wore during the days procession adorning his black froclx coat, the mass of jubilant sup porters simultaneously broke out with the shout Viva Madero."
 We are all brothers.' he said as he waved his arm. We are all happy al this moment. for in the conquest oi liberty we see q contrast with the sen timents of sister republics who are nov going to understand our sentiments, bu who are slow to fight for liberty. "I knew well the reason which tn president or a republic has for not In 1 terfering in foreign affairs, but knoE well the sentiment of liberty has n frontiers. When a people fight fo liberty and win, always this triumph l. well received in neighboring countries History shows the influence of the French revolution on other countries None of us shall feel satisfied until democracy reigns supreme throughout the continent"

Madero Gratified

Mir. Madero desired to express through the Associated Press tonight his grati- fication for the reception given him to- day, declaring that he would Issue a manifesto to the Mexican people within the next two days in appreciation of his welcome. He spoke enthusiastic cally of his meeting today with Presi- dent De La Barra and asserting his confidence that perfect harmony would prevail and the administration would busy itself In transquilizing the coun- try.
 MT. Madero's meeting with President De La Barra at the national palace was impressive. The former rebel chiei never before had met the president, and as MT. De La Barra entered a corridor leading from his office escorted by his military staff he stepped forward and grasped the hand of the triumphant chief of the revolution. Both men, short of stature, were overshadowed by the gaunt guardsmen of the Madero staff as well as those of the chief ex- ecutive. The two men chatted for a few minutes.
 "A great deal has been done," said MT De La Barra, but there Is much ahead of us. From the way in which you have been received in the capital am confident that all will be accom- plished that should be, and with the
 
 MT. Madero, In reply, expressed his confidence in President De La Barra, asserting that he was glad Mexico had l at the head of It's government at the present moment eminent and so hon | orable man.
 Any influence I may have" said MT. l Madero, 'Is at your disposal. I have no doubt that all questions will be settled with facility"
 The members of Mir. Maderos staff, General Garibaldi. Lieutenant Colonel Raoul Madero and Lieutenant Colonel Eduardo Hay, were introduced to the president as were the other members of his retinue. The parting of the two men was cordial to a degree. They em- braced in characteristic Mexican fash ion and retired down the long corridor in opposite directions. As MT. Madero passed down the staircase leading to the court of the national palace, a coterie of small girls tossed flowers at the descending parties and by the time MT. Madero entered his carriage he was almost completely covered with roses and confetti.

Celebrations Continue

Escorted to the gateway by federal qua rds, Mir Madero again entered the cheering jam of enthusiastic persons and continued his procession through the streets. Tonight crowds filled the streets and parades in which students and laborers alike participated were incessant. The streets in front of the Madero house at a late hour tonight were still crowded with noisy celebra- tions.
 MT Madero was closely guarded throughout the day. When he arrived at the station shortly after noon 1t was with difficulty that his bodyguard fought their way through the almost imocnetrable barricade of humanity. One of Madero's vigilant guards ob- served a man with his pistol drawn and, not hesitating, for the purpose of de- termining whether it was for salute or malevolence, he wrested the weapon from the mans hand and forced him back into the crowd.
 The police incidentally, just before the train arrived, arrested a suspicious character. Several persons were in- jured in the press of the crowds but none fatally.
 During the march in the streets a board platform over an excavation gave way and about 20 persons fell into the ~-~-~~~~>~--~~-~-~~~~~~~~~
