FIGURES FOR THE FARMER.

An investigation of the railroad
records show that since the first of
September, 1912, over 100000 has been
paid for feed imported into this Sec
ton. This vast amount could have
been saved, or the greater part of it,
to the people of Brazos County had
the farmers paid more attention to
growing feed crops, rather than "all
cotton"
The records show that feed has
been imported into Bryan as follows:
Corn and chops, 20 cars, av-
averaging 500 bu. per car,
at zoe bu. ............. $24, 10000
Oats, 95 cars, averaging 1000
bu per car at soc bu. .... 100000
Prairie hay, 4S cars, averag-
ing 8 stons per car, at
$12 per ton ............. 4,GOS.OO
Alfalfa, SO cars, 10 tons per
cars, at 500 per ton. 49,. 100000
Cane seed, maize heads, KAT
fir corn, etc. ......... 100000

Here are figures that invite the seri-
GUS attention of our farmers for many
reasons. In the first place, this vast
sum of money paid for feed is gone
forever. Unlike money paid out to our
merchants for supplies which comes
right back into the channels of bust
ness, it is gone for all time, and is
helping the business of the localities
in which this feed was raised
In the second place, large part of
this feed was purchased by farmers
and hauled out to their farms, con-
Stunning large part of their cotton
money. The remainder of their cot
ton money, and more too, went for
meat, because of lack of feed neces-
sary to the raising of hogs They
could have saved all this great sum
by raising their own feed and meat,
and we do not believe there is a farm
in the county that will not produce its
own feed and meat, if properly di-
rected
By this method, cotton, dairy prod
ucts, surplus hogs, poultry, eggs, etc,
would be the farmers money crops,
and. would represent his profits. 1t
would also stop the endless chain
practice of sending away every cent
that can be raked and scraped for
feed and meat.
Under a method of this kind, our
farmers would enjoy real prosperity,
could have better homes, better
greater conveniences, and
make themselves the most independ-
mt class of people in the world.

WILSON SIGNS MEASURE WHICH FORMS BASIS FOR SETTLING
 RAILROAD DISPUTE.
BOARD OF MEDIATION CREATED
It's Three Members Will Assist, if Necessary, in Picking Arbitration Bodies and Pass Upon Dis
 putes of the Arbitrators.

Washington, July 15.-Passage in double quick time of the Newlands bill to extend the Erdman arbitration law and avert the threatened strike Of 100000 eastern railroad employees was accomplished in the house The Judiciary committee met early. It re- ported the Newlands bill favorably, with minor amendments, and pigeon- holed similar bill by Chairman Clay ton of the house committee, which was disliked by both the railroads and their employees.
 To expedite passage of the arbitra. tion bill Republican Leader Mann reached an agreement with the Dem. ocratic leaders and all other business was suspended.
 Last night the Newlands measure had been approved by both branches of congress and signed by President Wilson Announcement from the White House of the new federal me- diation commission authorized by the bill to select two of six arbitrators in the dispute, is expected at any time
 The other four members of the ar bitration board will be selected by the employees and railroads.
 Original Board Independent.
 The original board of arbitration provided under the Erdman act was independent of any government de- partment, but one of its members, the commissioner of labor, has since been included under the department of la Dor, where his duties have been in creased so that only a portion of his time can be given to labor disputes.
 The Clayton amendments to the Newlands bill concern the elimination of an inconsistency as to the place for the filing of the papers in the va rious hearings, and insert a proviso that no mandatory process of any court should oblige an employe to work against his will While this is conceded as having been taken care of by the constitution, 1t nevertheless was placed in the Erdman act to avoid constitutional objections of a technical nature, and inadvertently had been omitted by the framers of the Clayton-Newlands bill.
 Terms of Perfected Bill.
 The perfected bill will create the United States board of mediation and conciliation, to be composed of a com missioner of mediation and concilia- tion, appointed by the president with the consent of the senate, with a sal ary of $7,500 and tenure of seven years, and not more than two other officials of the government already ap- pointed by the president, with the consent of the senate, who shall be designated by him as the two other members of the board. There also will be an assistant commissioner with salary of $5,000, authorized to act in the commissioners absence. For the settlement of controversies as they might arise the measure pro- vides for boards of arbitration of six or three, to be selected with the help of the board of mediation and con-

MEXICO CELEBRATES
INDEPENDENCE DAY
Greatest Parade in Capitals
History Marks festivtL

Mexico City, Sept. 1.-THE largest
parade ever held in Mexico City was
formed in celebration of the 103d an
niversary of the nations independ-
ence. Cold drizzling rain caused the
flage and bunting to droop and made
marching over the sodden pavements
a dreary business, but it did not
quench the holiday spirit.
From early morning detachments OF
soldiery. cadets, students and volun-
teers made their way toward Chapul-
tepec, where the days celebration be-
gan with speechmaking and music,
and where patriotic utterances of ora
tors appointed for the occasion stirred
embyro soldiers to excuses of enthu-
siasm.
Provisional President Huerta, in
full uniform surrounded by his staff
and accompanied by mny Government
officials and foreign diplomats, made a
short address applauding the patriotic
ardor of the younger element of the
population and calling them the hope
of the nation" and worthy sons OF
loyal fathers.
At the hour appointed for the open
ing of the civic observances at Chapu-
ltepec, the Presidential salute doomed
from the guns of the arsenal. At the
conclusion of the ceremonies the Pres
idential party drove through the
streets lined with holiday makers
showering confetti and flowers from
windows and balconies to the Nation,
al Palace, where Huerta reviewed the
parade.
It was noticeable that the guard
about the United States Embassy was
unusually vigliant. There were scat
tered anti-American demonstrations
and cries of drive out the gringoes''
were heard OF intervals.

Plot and

A Story of the Russian
Revolution.
By DONALD CHAMBERLIN

Peter Polizoff and Alexis Alexandra
vich We're students at the university
at ST Petersburg, Russia. They were
bosom friends and both members Of a
revolutionary circle; indeed, Alexan-
drovich was it's president and the con-
ductor of it's secret movements in be-
half of the revolution. PoliZoff was
two years younger than his friend and
of a far less rugged nature. His con-
fdence in Alexis was absolute, and his
affection for him was supreme.

luton WAS Brewing and when those

Alexandrovich spoke the words with
evident feeling, for he had got wind OF
the fact that they had a government
spy among their number. He had
formed a counter plan by which to
save the main body of the circle by
betraying to the government two or
three Of its members, including the
spy, it being necessary to betray real

tending to work for the government,

she considered worse than death-that
is, being sent in chains to work in the
mines in Siberia.
One day Katia ran breathlessly into
