is HUERTA REALLY TO RESIGN?
Provisional President AIludes to
Leaving Mexico Soon.

Vera Cruz, Sept. 12.-Persistent
rumors current here that General
Huerta really intends to resign from
the presidency at an early date are
interesting President Wilson's per-
sonal representative, Mr.. Lind.
! Tending to support those rumors
are two stories apparently from an
authentic source. One is to the eff
feet that an American, calling on
the provisional president asked him
what he intended to do. General
Huerta smiled and replied that one
of his eyes had been troubling him
greatly of late. Then he laughed
and added that If that eye became
worse he might have to leave the
country and have an operation some
time early in October. AS a matter
of fact, General Huerta underwent
an operation for cataract several
months ago..

DESTROYS HOPPER EGGS
Unexpected Aid in the Western nan
sas Fight.

Dodge City, Sept. 12.-An active
little worm is aiding the farmers 81
western Kansas in their fight on Ihe
grasshoppers. This has been discoV-
cred by Prof. C. G. Hamilton OF the

Of the egg pods deposited IN q
earth by the female hoppers, ana IN
them he found a worm that Is eat
ing the eggs.
Each female hopper deposits
enough egg pods to hold about 10y
eggs and the activity of this worm
MAY reduce greatly the number q
hoppers that will be Matched out IN
October to feed On the growing
wheat. Prof. Hamilton has sent ?
number Of the egg pods to the col
lege to have his associates hatch out
the eggs and determine what worm
is eating them.

EiOns, will begin sowing wheat next
week. At the present time most OF
the fields around Abilene are too
muddy to work, but the rain COM
ang as 1t did when the ground was
dusty and hot, will make the soil
zine when the wheat is sowed.

m0rning that the land in his neigh

says, ID now better than that which
was narrowed, for the reason that
IN many instances the rain made q
