Hernandez Deserts Madero

Maria, Tex, February 2S.-Braulio Her napdez, who quit his post as secretary or state of Chihuahua, enlisting the Vasqu- ista cause. is leading a band of rebels against the town of Ojinaga, Mexico, op- posite Presidio. Tex, according to to- nights dispatches on the border
 General Sanchez, federal commander of Ojinaga, the dispatch continues, has re- piled in the negative to the demand of Hernandez that the town be surrendered and has announced that he will fight.
 In the event of an attack Presidio would be directly in the line of fire and Amer ican residents have asked that United States troops be hurried to the little city. During the Madero revolution Sanchez commanded rebel troops which beseged Ojinaga for several weeks and during the fighting several persons on the American side were wounded by bullets which fell in the outskirts of Presidio.
 Tonights advices do not make clear the proximity of Hernandez to Ojinaga or the strength of his following.

VOTER PRESS CHOICE
Name Your Choice for Presi-
dent at April Election
Local Candidates Quiet.

Under a new law our spring
election has been raised almost
to the dignity of presidential
election.
At the spring election, April 2,
the voter as heretofore will vote
for his own town ticket, but in
addition, each voter will be Civ
ell a ballot containing the names
CT the Democratic and Repu'li
can candidates for the presiden-
cy. The voter will express his
choice among the candidates of
his own party. He can express
but one choice. This is done by
placing a cross X or other sym
Dol within the circle after the
name Of his choice.
In addition to the names of the
candidates there will also be
found on the ticket the names Of
the candidates for dist. let dele
gates and delegates-at-large for
each of the several presidential
candidates both Democratic and
Republican. The delegates elect
ed will go to the National Con
vention of their respective par
ties and name the party's candi-
date for president and vice-presi-
deaf.
AS these delegates are not legal
lv bound to vote for the candi-
date endorsed by the people, the
voters should naturally vote for
the delegates who stand as can
didates for the candidate of his
choice for the presidency.

ALFALFA IN THIS STATE
Advancement Association Is
Urging Farmers to Intro
duce Crop---Wisconsin is a
Leader IN It's Production.

The publicity department of
the Wisconsin Advancement AS
ISOLATION is urging that the far
mers of the state give serious
thought TO the introduction Of
alfalfa. As soon as the census
bulletins began to appear that
association gave to the people of
the state the fact that Wisconsin
leads the irrigated states in value
per acre Of the alfalfa crop. More
recently the bulletins for the
other states have become avail
able, and yet Wisconsin is in the
van.
Many will say that clover is
good enough. and there's some
thing to that, but the progress
sive Wisconsin farmer, after he
has given the matter thought,
will be inclined to say that moth
ing is TOO good for him-and
there is no getting round the fact
that alfalfa is the king of forage
crops.
1t has been said that alfalfa
will interfere with rotac don of
crops as practiced in Wisconsin,
but it IS apparent that a careful
consideration OF the situation
will do away with that objection.
The point made is that in the
rotations as practiced in Wiscou-
sin, the clover furnishes humus
TO the soil for other crops. This
can be accomplished by sowing
a catch" crop Of clover with all
crops-and with the addition of
a lot of pasturage. By ali means
at least carefully consider alfalfa,
The success OF farmers IN this
vicinity who have tried alfalfa
IS assurance Off being the lead
ing forage crop. An unusually
good catch was secured last sea-
son prompting farmers to give it
more extensive culture this year.
