a stock center where they will be
able to buy pure bred stock at rea-
sonabIe prices.
All OF the stock on the estate is
TO be thoroughbred, not scrub ami
NAL of any Kind being raised. The
horses are all registered percherons,
headed by a stallion, Hyron, that
was imported from France over a
year ago and at that time was con-
sidered the Hkeliest animal in a
country where the breeding Of per
cherons has reached it's highest de-
yelopment.
The cattle are Holsteins. from the
best stock of Canada and northern
New York and said by Professor
Kennedy Of the state agricultural
college at Ames TO be the best herd
OF the Mississippi river. The herd
is headed by Iowana Lad.
Since October, when the dairy
herd was installed, the 80 cows have
been MIXED by a milking machine
and the new idea has proved so emf
nently satisfactory that there Will
never be one of the old-time milk
men on the Iowana farm. Rubber
hose is fastened to the cows udders
and the 8 y horsepower motor is
then set IN motion, the milk being
drawn into alright buckets.
The milk received from each COW
is kept in a separate can, and Is
then taken to a special milk room,
weighed and emptied into alright
receiving cans by a separate attend
ant. In this way the individual rec
ord Of every COW is kept and like
wise every possible precaution is
taken 10 insure the absolute clean
Illness of the milk. This kind OF
milk is then bottled. receiving the
farm stamp. and sells at several
cents above the average price, pay
ing according to the management of
the farm, very well for the extra ex-
pense involved.
Another of the modern features
Of the farm is the alfalfa field. Now
alfalfa is not a native of Scott
county. so when It was first planted
the neighboring rustics sat on the
fence and remarked in extenso az
they chewed a timothy straw, that
they had never hearn tell Of that
air styleish grass around these
parts" and that the colonel would
soon find out that Glover and tim
othy was the only things fur Scott
county"
But the first cutting of alfalfa,
netting near three tons to the acre,
and the prospects Of two more cut
tings this year, proved that modern
scientific agriculture had been sue
cessful and that Scott county would
be e good foster mother TO the nu-
tritious grass that has long been one
of the best paying products of the
west.
There is no idea in the establish
ment of the farm of teaching Scott
county people how the ancient sci
ence OF agriculture should be car
ried on, as the farmers In this VI
ciuity are recognized to be among
the most progressive in the state.
But the Iowana farm will illustrate
what can be accomplished with suf-
fcient capital, business method and
the most scientific kind Of farming.

French works out is seen in the re-

Chief of Staff Expresses the
Opinion That Intervention in
Mexico Is Inevitable.
GREAT EXCITEMENT
OVER THE MATTER
Rumors of DissensiOns in the
Cabinet; Strong Language
Attributed to President.
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, May 6.-Stories
printed today that General Leonard
Wood chief of staff of the army, at
an informal gathering of members of
the house committee on military af-
fairs Thursday, expressed the opinion
that intervention In Mexico will be
inevitable and that it would take 200,-
600 American troops to patrol the
troubled republic, brought no little
chagrin to administration circles,
Official denials were issued from sew
eral sources and care was taken to eX-
press anew the administration S policy
that intervention is most remote pos
sibility. One Of President Taft s callers
today went so far as to quote him as
saying that 'tblood would have to be
so. deep in Mexico that man could
wade through it, before the American
army would cross the border.
Woods Personal View.
This has been reported TO have been
the presidents 3 position throughout Mex
lean troubles and again was generally
accepted as such Members of congress
were inclined to the belief that the re
ported utteranccs of General Wood were
to be taken az that officers personal
view.
General Wood himself and Secretary
of War Dickinson were particularly bit.
ter in denouncing the circulation Of
stories of Intervention at this time, say
ing they considered them calculated to
work infinite mischief and endanger the
lives of Americans in Mexico by IN
flaming the natives and even to plunge
the two countries into war.
Through all of the conflicting reports
as to the American attitude there stood
out the fact that intervention in Mex
leo can come only through the action
of congress This fact served TO main
tain placidity at the capitol.
Taft Knows the Law.
President Taft, conscious Of the con-
lstitutional restrictions as to invading n
foreign country and thereby committing
an act of war, has time and again made
the declaration that he would lay the
whole matter before congress If the
time should ever come for Intervention
by the country and that the responsible
Iity for action would be placed squarely
up to congress.
T9day's happenings brought out
fresh rumors that friction exists be-
tween the war and state departments
over the handling of affairs connected
with the Mexican situation.
report also was persistent tonight
that Secretary knox's resignation in
the near future would not cause great
surprise. No confirmation was obtain
able. A suggestion that Secretary Knox
might retire from the state portfolio
was current even before the Mexican
situation was sprung.

TEST Of PARTY
FAITH At HAND
Democrats of the House About
Ready to Take Up Wool and
Cotton Schedules.
WIDE DIFFERENCE OF
OPINION APPARENT
Senate Sure to Ignore Any Free
Trade Bills; Position of
the President.
By Leased Wire to The Tribune.


WASHINGTON, May 6.-With the
passage of the farmers free list bill,
which may bo expected on Monday or
Tuesday at the very latest, the house
comes face to face with its first real
legislative programme. Il has been
recognized from the beginning Of this
extraordinary session of congress that
the Democratic majority would undergo
the severest test of its new-found
cohesion, solidarity and discipline when
it came TO revise downward the cotton
and wooden schedules. These two items
of tariff making and the admission OF
Arizona and New Mexico to statehood
will complete the Democratic pro.
eramme of house activities.
1t seems probable that the statehood
bill will be brought up for considera-
tion in the house before the revision
of the wool schedule is undertaken. 1T
will serve TO occupy the time for awhile
and give the members of the ways and
means committee longer period to de-
wise n woolen schedule which can be
submitted to n Democratic caucus. If
the preliminary work of writing a
schedule has not been completed when
the debate over the admission Of Ari-
zona and New Mexico is out of the way,
the house Will follow the present SEN
ate fashion and sit only on Mondays
and Thursdays, 1t is now the estab
lished custom Of the responsible Demo
cratic leaders not to offer any party
measure in the house for considera.
ton in debate until party caucus hns
approved it, thus insuring a united ma
lority against minority in caucus.
Difference of Opinion.
It is premature to say that the house
Democrats are split over the question
of whether raw wool should bear
revenue duty or should be admitted
free. Undeniably there is different
opinion, but it is far from true that the
differences are irreconcilable. Ever

FOR CENTRAL BUREAU
Proposition Is Made in Meeting of
Police Chiefs at Wichita.

Wichita, Kan, Jan. 6.-Peace officers
of Kansas, in their first annual con-
vention here today, will take steps to
form a state police agency through
which information concerning robberies
will be distributed quickly to the peace
officers in every Kansas county in the
hope of preventing the bank robberies
and other crimes.
The 20 chiefs Of police and detectives,
in their morning session, agreed that
the speedy dissemination of news 0f
robberies is wha. the police officers
must rely on to capture robbers and pre-
vent crime. They have not yet OUT
lined plans for the central agency or
the manner of conveying news CT
crime to one another.
The movement to organize the police
departments of the state for concerto 1
action in driving criminals from the
state was started several months ago.
Letters exchanged among several police
officers of the state and meeting to
be held for the purpose of organization
was proposed.
The plan of the central bureau of
identification is to afford a means of
tracing criminals Often men escape
in cities and run to the western part
of the state as hoboes. There they are
arrested bv conStables or sheriffS and
jailed for a night. There is no charge
against them other than vagrancy and
they are released after a few days con-

PENALTY IS HEAVY.

Apologize to Company.

of the Boston Opera House in a rage
as the curtain was about to be rung
up on a full dress rehearsal of LA
Habanera" December IS, because an
other artist had been cast for a role
which he desired to sing in a forth
coming production, is ready to pay a
fine of $4,000 and apologize to the
entire company, as demanded by Di-
rector Henry RUSSELL before he will
be permitted to sing in the Boston
Opera House again
This penalty is not excessive in
view of the serious consequences which
might have accrued from your action
Director Russell has written to Mr..
Baklanoff, in reply to a letter from the
baritone seeking forgiveness.
Mr.. Baklanof has decided to accept
this punishment, and will return to
the Boston Opera House next week
The fine and apology must be forth
coming, Director Russell has written
Mr.. Baklanoff, in order that strict dis
cipline shall be maintained in the
Opera house
