ment will be given to an additional
1000 or 1900 men.
After it is separated from the Union

During the past spring and winter,
seedmen throughout the state have
found it difficult to locate pure seed.
According to the state pure seed law
they are required to show a purity
test on all seed sold within the state
of not more than one noxious weed
in ten thousand seeds of the seed on
sale. The noxious weeds are defined
in the seed law and include mustard
of all species, alfalfa and clover dod-
ders Cor love-vinc as it is sometimes
called, bucknorn or plantain and
several others which are not so COM
mon.
Now is the time to clean seed
grain-before the weeds mature. Some
of the weed seeds are nearly the dia-
meter of our grains, making it i'm
possible to screen them out. The
weeds can be pulled at this period and
seed crops that ordinarily would be
unstable under the pure seed act can
be cleaned to pass inspection by a

TEXAS WANTED
MORE TROOPS
Another Infantry Regiment Will be
Added to the American
Border Array

Washington, D. c.. Nov. 23.-Re-
enforcement of the American troops
on the Mexican frontier is the latest
development of the Mexican problem.
Another infantry regiment is to be
ordered to Fort Bliss, near Ell Paso.
for the purpose OF freeing one of the
cavalry regiments now stationed at
that fort for active duty along the
international line in the execution of
the neutrality law.
The net result OF the order is to
increase by a full regiment the force
OF American troops available to
maintain order along the border.
That their services may be needed
for this purpose was asserted by
members of the Texas congressional
delegation, and Secretary Garrison
yielded to their appeals when he
learned through press dispatches
that the federal leaders again were
approaching Juarez, opposite Ell
Paso, and that the rebel Gen. Villa
had gone forth to meet the federals.

SHOULDN'T MAKE
HAS1Y STATEMENTS
Proper Rebuke from Secretary of
State Bryan to the Sensa-
tiOnal Press

Washington. D. c.. Nov. 23.-Sec-
reIary Bryan issued this statement
relative to Mexico City dispatches
about the movement Of British war
ships to Mexico:
The statement published this
morning TO the effect that the state
department protested against the ac-
ton Of Great Britain in sen ding war
vessels TO Mexican waters is abso-
lutely false.
And in denying the statement I
desire TO add a condemnation of the
publication of statements of that
kind without taking time to inquire
into their truth Or falsity. A denial
cannot reach all who read the state
ment nor can it prevent the discus
sion and editorial comments that
are predicated on the false state
ments.
Surely in international affairs
there ought to be a patriotic desire
to promote friendly relations and
these cannot be promoted by the
reckless publication of false state
ments in regard to the a,ts of gov
ernment officials

jungle and died and was buried, and
the people where he died felt them

down to the cantonment and pur-
chased a bottle of whisky, two bot
