FELIX DIAz ASSUMES
ALL nE3f0H0IDiLiTr
Captured Mexican RevOIutiOnist
Faces Court Calmly.

Mexico City, Oct. 2s.-Tight Tipped
and scowling, Felix Diaz, leader of the
short lived revolt at Vera Cruz, sat in
the midst of the group of revolution
lists who appeared before the court
martial in the seaport city to be tried
for treason.
Il alone am responsible for the
movement" the nephew of Mexico's
former president told the court in
making his statement. Il have known
Colonel Jose Diaz Ordaz for many
years and | won him over to my side,
The other officers did not even know
where they were being taken or why
I had no accomplices."
Then the fallen revolutionist quietly
took his seat, folded his arms across
his breast and sat stolidly listening tC
the proceedings which may end in his
execution. The calmness with which
he faced the tribunal astounded the
officers of the court.

Plan To Double Crop.

Experiments looking to the improvement
OF the wheat crop of the United States by
crossing the seed of American wheat with
that of the wild wheat of Palestine, which,
it is claimed by Prof Aaron Aaronshon. of
Chicago, would produce a superior quality
of the cereal, will be made soon by the
United States Department of Agriculture.
Prof. Aaronshon, after many years of
search, has found the original wheat plant
growing wild in Palestine. He has con-
Quoted several experiments in that country,
and claims that by crossing the Palestine
plant with that of the United States it will
be possible to double the wheat crop of
this country. His experiments show, it is
claimed, that variety of wheat which is
well adapted to the soil and climatic con-
ditions of the United States, Tunis, Syria,
Algeria, Egypt, and Turkestan, can be
produced by this crossing of the two kinds
of seeds.
In order to test Prof. Aaronshon's theory
the United States Department of Agricul-
ture will obtain from Palestine large
quantity of the seed of the wild wheat,
and it will be crossed with the native wheat
of this country.
If the experiments substantiate the
claim made by Prof Aaronshon,i it is prob
able that the new kind of wheat will be
introduced into this country Immediately
1t has been pointed out by experts in
the Department of Agriculture that if a
new type of wheat can be produced which
is superior in quality and productiveness
to that now grown in this country, great
step will have been taken in solving the
food supply question of the world.
In this connection it is pointed out that
the United States government has almost
ceased to be an exporter of wheat, the de-
mand in this country practically consum-
ing the entire supply. By doubling the
quantity and at the same time improving
the quality of the wheat raised in this
country it is expected that the United
States would again become big exporter
of wheat. The fact that the new variety
of wheat could be grown only in this coun-
try and the semarid sections of Tunis,
Algeria, Egypt, Syria and Turkestan would
make it an important factor in the wheat
industry in the United States, it was pointed
out by the experts of the department
Prior to his excursions into Palestine in
search of the original wild wheat, Prof
Aaronshon was connected with the Uni
versity of Chicago. His expedition was
financed by Julius Rosenwald and Judge
Julian Mack, of Chicago.
While the experts of the United States
Department of Agriculture were unwilling
to discuss Prof Aaronshon' S announcement,
they declared that the success of such an
experiment would be invaluable.

County Democratic Rally.

The County Seat was the scene of an
old-time all-day Democratic rally on Tues
day. Beginning with the early hours of
the morning, representative Democrats
from all sections of the county assembled.
Everybody was in good humor and the
very atmosphere was surcharged with the
spirit of victory. Victory not for a part of
the ticket only, but for the whole ticket
The first meeting took place in the morn
ing where active workers from all sections
of the county were called together for the
purpose of receiving reports of conditions
in each election district and formulating
plans for the battle of the ballots next
Tuesday.
The reports were most gratifying, and
showed that the Democrats are at work.
At work with vim and vigor and enthu-
siasm, with no breaks in their ranks, while
their erstwhile competitor is hopelessly

The Democrats realize that the eyes of
the State are on Montgomery county be-
cause, in its last analysis, the success of
Congressman Lewis and of Judge Worth
ington depends upon the vote of this
county. Unless all signs fail, Montgomery
will turn the trick and both will be trium-
phantly elected, together with Wilson and
Marshall but it means work, hard work.
The afternoon meeting was called to
order by Mr.. Robert B. Peter, the Chair
man of the State Central Committee. who
expressed qualification at the good reports
to the morning meeting of workers and
urged the Importance of strenuous efforts
being put forth on behalf of Lewis and
Worthngton as well as the national ticket
The Town Hall was entirely filed with
an appreciative audience, including not a
few ladies'.
The speakers were ex-Attorney General
Isaac Lobe Straus, of Baltimore, Judge
E. V. Brookshire and Mr.. Charles Donavan,
of Washington city.
All of these gentlemen did themselves
and their party credit by the deliverance
of clear and forceful addresses. Mr.. Straus,
who has spoken here before, paid beau

citizenship. His discourse was scholarly,

The Corn Congress-.
To the Sentinel.

10 the Sentinel:
The Agricultural High Schools at Sandy
Spring and Brookeville are going to offer
to the farmers of this county on November
18th one of the best corn and fruit shows
ever held in the county, at the Olney Grange
Hall. There will be an all-day session,
opening at 8 A. M. and closing at 6 p. NJ.
Most of the exhibits will be made by the
boys attending the two above-named
schools, and should therefore appeal to the
older farmers of the dear OLD Montgomery
county.
Some very interesting addresses will be
made on this occasion, and it is the desire
of the instructor in this department to have
as large an audience as possible.
A special feature of this congress is to
show the results of some of the boys in the
Boys Corn Club, organized by Prof Gray
early in the year. There are a number of
competitors and some interesting results
are expected.
The managers of this congress have been
quite fortunate in arranging their program
DR.. Howard S. Hill, Director of the State
Agricultural Institute work, will discuss
alfalfa growing. Dr. Ryan Devereux will
represent the County School Board and give
a talk. Profs. W. 7. l.. Taliaferro and Her
man N. Beckenstrator will represent the
Agricultural College and act as judges.
They will also give appropriate addresses.
Let us on this occasion have your
presence, and allow us to show you what
some of the younger farmers of the county
are capable of doing,
Come, bring your lunches and let us
learn to know each other better.
