SIhMOES WILL HELP K:TCHiN.


Washington. Oct. 11.-An effor
is to be made to smooth out all tn,
tangled factions in North Carolin.
incident to the senatorial campaign
last year. Since Senator Simmons
has accomplished everything hi:
friends said he would and has don;
none of those things which hi
enemies declared he would do, botl
the Kitchin and Simmons factions
are going to forget the past and re-
unite for a solid Democratic party
This became evident here this
week when it was found that Senator
Simmons is willing to do any thing
in his power to help Claude Kitchin
in his efforts to be chairman Of the
powerful ways and means committee
to succeed Oscar Underwood, Of AL
ALBANIA. Not only Senator Simmons,
Representative Page, Goodwin, Webb
and in fact every member from the
delegation are willing to go the linn
it for the second district congress
! man.
There will not be mnch of a fight
against Kitchin. The fight being
made against Mr.. Kitchin, for the
most part is such an effort as was
directed against Senator Summons
when the senate was recognized.
Such men as Luke Lea, Owens Of
Oklahoma and and few inexperienc-
ed and seif-styled progressive"
tried to oppose Mr.. Simmons. They
were not seriously considered. In
the case of Representative Kitchin,
A. Mitchell, Palmer and Robert
Henry, who are candidates for every
job that turns up from a small COM
mittee assignment to membership
in the Presidents cabinet, want to
be chairman Of the ways and means
committee. Neither will be serious
~ considered by house leaders when
the time comes to select a successor
to Oscar Underwood.
Claude Kitchin has two things in
his favor: First, ability and second,
he ranks for the place. Probably
number Of congressman Chose at
the bottom OF the LADDER would like
to break down the seniority rule,
which allows the man next 10 the
chairman to succeed the chairman
when a vacancy occurs But the
the trouble with these fellows is
some time they hope to be just
where the man now is whom they
want to distroy. Hence, the senior
ty rule will prevail for many years
to come. And, unless all signs fail.
Mr.. Kitchin will be made chairman
just as easy as Mr.. Simmons fell air
to the finance committee. As
matter OF fact there is not another
man on the ways and means conf
mittee near so competent to hold
UnderWood's place a; Kitcilin; this
is recognized by all who have watch
ed the proceedings in the House
since the tariff bill got under way
with Democratic majority.
The fact that Senator Simmons is
chairman Of the finance committee
in the opinion Of house leaders, will
not bear upon the subject one way
or the other. The same argument
will apply should Representative
Webb be made chairman Of the
Judiciary and latter on Senator Over
man. by reason Of his rank, should
stand for the same assignment in
the Senate. Both Webb and Over
man are likely t. be chairman of the
Judiciary in the house and senate
before an >thar yea, rolls around.
Broad thinking men will not attenDt
to take away the rights CT senators
and representatives because thew
come from the state.

Most of the hairy vetch seed now
sold in this country is imported from
Russia. The recent investigation in
Russia by the Government seed spe-
cialists shows that the collectors of
Russian seed were not taking pains
to keep it from being mixed with
other vetches and especially weed
vetches. Much of this seed grows
wild in rye fields with a number of
weeds. The remedy suggested by the
Department for this adulterated seed
is for the American farmer to raise
his own hairy vetch seed and so be
certain that he is getting pure seed.
Incidentally, as soon as the American
farmer begins to raise his own hairy
vetch seed he will get it at a much
lower price than now is asked for the
imported and fequently adulterated
or misbranded article.

MISBRANDING OF HAIRY VETCH
SEED.

a winter cover and green manuring
crop that it is continuing its cam
paign to detect adulteration and mis-
branding of seed. In 1912 there we're
examined DOT different samples of this
seed and of these II contained no
hairy vetch seed whatever, while 100
samples consisted of a mixture OF
hairy vetch, spring vetch and weed
vetch. Circular No. As of the office
of the Secretary, United States De-
partment of Agriculture, 1913, con-
tains the name of the dealers and the
extent to which the seed was adulter
ated and will be supplied without
charge on application.
This adulteration the Department
regards as particularly serious because
whereas true hairy vetch seed costs
from So. 90 to S6. 90 bushel, the other
vetches used for adulterating costs
So. 90 OF less per bushel. Even more
significant, however, is the fact that
the hairy vetch does we'll as winter
crop in practically all climates,
whereas the spring vetch or a strain
of the spring vetch known as "a win
ter vetch' is not hardy in cold eli
mates and does we'll only in the
Coastal Plain states and in certain
parts of the Pacific Coast states. The
hairy vetch, therefore, is one OF the
very few leguminous crops for cover
or blowing under which do we'll in
cold climates. It is particularly use
full because it can be planted in the
late fall and will furnish its crop be-
fore the time for spring sowing and is
valuable in tobacco fields because it
can be sown after the harvest and
plowed under before the next planting
of tobacco and is also an important
orchard cover. 1t adds materially to
the nitrogen and humus content of
the soil.
A very simple method by which the
farmer can detect the seed of most
other vetches from hairy vetch is as
follows:
*** the difference in color of the
interior of the seed shown by differ
emit kinds of vetches affords a ready
means for detecting the use OF other
vetch seed as an adulterant of hairy
vetch. Crushed hairy vetch seed is
of a lemon-yellow color, somewhat
lighter on the fiat than on the round
ed surface. The crushed seed of
most of the other vetches occurring
with the seed of the hairy vetch va
ries in color from a dark fawn to
reddish orange.
Crush a small handful of seed and
if there are any fawn, salmon, or red
dish orange colored pieces the seed is
not pure hairy vetch.
Farmers having a doubt about the
hairy vetch seed which they are buy
ing may submit a sample to the near
est of the following seed laboratories
which will tell them exactly the nature
of the seed they purpose to SOW:

AMERICAN IN MEXICO
HELD FOR MURDER
Is Taken to Cumpas from
Nac0zari; He Declares His
Innocence

DOUGLAS, April 2.-Aecording to
adyices received from NacoZari yester-
day, Charles w. Streeter, an American
citizen, pioneer and original locator
OF the Pilares mine, was taken TO
Cumpas yesterday, where ne will stand
trial on a charge of murder. Streeter
has been lodged in the jail at Nacozarl
for the past three weeks. He claims
that he is innocent of the charge
which has been preferred against him.
1t appears that Streeter was en-
gagged in a card game with three
Mexicans in the Nacozari hotel some
weeks ago. Trouble ensued over the
cards. Hereupon, il is SAID, Streeter
drew his gun, shooting one of the
Mexicans who died a few minutes
later. The only witnesses Of the az
fair we're Mexieanss
Today Streeter succeeded in getting
telegram to American Consul Sim
pich who is now in this city. Streeter
claims he is innocent. He asks pro
lection and aid in an impartial trial
on the murder charge. The American
consul will leave for Cumpas to make
an investigation OF the arrest o.
Streeter, in order that the accused
may secure all the rights as guaran
teed by the international Law.
