WASHINGTON, Nov. 4.-President
Wilson left the Mexican situation
simmer a few hours today while he
went to Princeton. n j., to vote,
The tension Of this governments I'LL
tlnatum to Huerta was not relieved
by the presidents action and Just
before Mr.. Wilson left the White
Hodse, he conferred with Secretary
Bryan.
All officials here were consistently
silent over the notice to Huerta to va
cate the provisional presidency Of
Mexico and seat no partisan. The
understanding was that the attitude
here is to make no announcement
just now and await the next step.
The greatest interest centered
about Huerta's conference with the
Mexico City diplomatic corps. AS soon
as Charge 0'Shaughnessy had de-
livered the latest note Huerta called
in the diplomats but no announcement
was made of their conference
President Wilson planned to be in
touch with the situation practically
every hour he is away today and to
return to Washington tonight.
The president left here at 10 o'clock
this morning expecting to arrive in
Princeton at 2:30 o'clock this after
noon, cast his ballot. leave Princeton
at 4 O'Clock and arrive back here at
9:25 tonight.
Secretary Bryan fatty refused to
discuss the situation when inquiries
were made concerning the demand
for the Immediate retirement OF
Huerta.
Senator Bacon, chairman OF the
Senate foreign relations committee,
after a conference with Bryan, said:
81 consider the situation to be
nearer a conclusion. We are very
hopeful that things Will turn out
WE'LL
Secretary Daniels reiterated today
that the three battleships OF the sec
ond division Of the Atlantic fleet will
remain in Mexican waters until fur

battleships of the third division are
due at Vera Cruz and Tampico to-
morrow.
Sixty French colonlsts near Santa
Rosalia, on the west coast Of Mexico,
reported in danger, are now safely
gathered at the seaport wnere they
may be protected by the American
warships.
Later today Secretary Bryan IS
sued a statement He declined 10

A RE You studying fertilizer problems and max
"A ing up your mind to spend your 1913 fertilizer
money judiciously and economically? Or are you
going to do as SO many foolish farmers do, simply
take whatever mixture your merchant happens to
have in stock? The Progressive Farmer believes
in fertilizers but it believes in the judcious and
not the injudicious use of them. Our farmers fre-
quently complain of the amount of taxes they have
to pay to support State Governments. but it is
undoubtedly true that out of our $50 1000 900 an
nual fertilizer expense we ignoranty waste enough
each year to run all the State Governments in the
South including provision for six months school
term for every Southern child. The wastes of ig-
norance indeed are always far more burdensome
than the expense of education. We do not advise
farmers to spend less fertilizer money. mind you
we are only urging them to spend it wisely-after
first studying soil needs and crop needs and the
special uses OF potash phosphoric acid, and
nitrogen.

THE PROGRESSIVE nan,
of the agricultural college and expects an.,.
much of it.
1t is true that most Southern agricu,t,..,
1eges give too much attention to non-ayr,..,
subjects. This is largely due to the fact ~.
boys enter these colleges too young or v,..
sufhcient preparation. but also too often !.
fact that our agricultural schools. in tn. !. \
are dominated too largely by those WIN q
little of agricultural education and do moi 10.
believe in it, because of this lack of kno-,.
and the further fact THAT they have been t,,'
ed in and believe in other educational line. J.
cept that we would reduce the amount Of -
agricultural subjects taught in our southem 3.
leges and increase the amount of basic a.,
tural science taught, we believe the agricuI,.
colleges are doing about the best that can be ~.
under present conditions.
1t is folly to send boy to college to do -,
work This does not mean that he is not q /.
taught, as far as possible, in the Laboratory ~
the field. but 1t does mean that the ir,port,.
things for the boy to learn at the agricultural 81
lege are facts and principles underlying arri.sl
tural practice To acquire sufficient of this knovt
edge will consume all the four years allotted 3
the agricultural course. II he is taught agricul
ture-that is the sciences underlying agricultur,]
practice-there need be no fear Of his mind train
ing or ability to think There is no more yeuer.9
ated sophistry than that q boy must be taught
along the old educational lines in order to receive
proper mind training and none which has less sesl
fact to rest upon. The man who doubts the mind
training in the study of the agricultural sciences
Is the man who knows nothing of those sciences'
On the other hand one year Of work on ths7

boy could get the sort of agricultural educa-
ton he needs outside Of the colleges, but it re-.
mains fact that very few ever do it; therefore,
we advise our friend to allow his boy to complete
his course in the agricultural college and then
give him the farm experience when he shall bs
better prepared to profit by IT.
We must not expect too much Of the agricut
tural colleges. Their function is to teach the sct

do this we'll, they have done the best thing posi-

What Should the Boy Do at an Agri-
cultural College?

n READER who has son in the four-year ag-
~ ricultural course at Southern agricultural
college, writes:
Il am not altogether pleased with the
amount Of practical experience he gets at this
colleges. and am thinking Of taking him out
81 collega and havinE him work ON the farm
next year And snke correspondence course
u0ared BY b6me M the schools He can get
the Theory through the correspondence school
and set experience on the farm by the actual
growing Of his own crops
This boy IL now Id his junior year and will re-
quire but one year more to complete the course
He is-young and has ample time at his command.
It Is perhaps natural that this father. who has
not until recently been farmer, but banker
should think the boy is not getting sufficient prac-
tcal work at the college. but 1t is quite possible
that he is asking too much Of the agricultural
college and that generally our ideas OF the true
functions of the agricultural college may need
revising.
In the first place, the agricultural college cannot
in four years take a young boy and give him
good general education. give him the sciences un-
DERIVING agriculture and also give him the practi-
cal experience in farm work necessary to turn out
finished, educated farmer.
This being the case. what should the college do?
history. try to teach simply agricultural science,
or neglect both Of these and keep the boys at
work on the college farm?
II the first Is to be done why maintain the agri
cultural college at all, but without the first the
second line of work is impracticable unless better
prepared students sent to the colleges: and
II the boys are to spend their time in work. thev
might nearly AZ well be kept at home. as our
reader contemplates.
Whiie We send boys to the agricultural colleges
who have not sunhcient basic education or mind
training to obtain the best results from either
The study OF the agricultural sciences. or from
practical farm work. the only practical plan Il
seems TO us' Is the one now being pursued by the
colleges: namely. teach such fundamentals M
English. mathematics etc.. to limited extent
and give a. much Of the sciences underlying aeri-
culture a. b possible under these conditions. Wa
have little sympathy with the idea OF sending boya
to college to do farm work. and believe that the
average man has not yet learned the true function
