 JL'AREZ. March 1s.--The army which General Villa took such care tt' orcanixe and which was expected to march triumphantly through the country to the siege of Mexico City j.: reported to have met a reverse n

The CT censtitutionaiists fell back on then .,nnorts and these In turn were fore cd back by 6 flank attack of the red eral cavalry.
 While this advance guard action was going on Villa was busiiy engage' |, forming his remaining troops to meet the federal attack. Why the rete, general should have taken the .,.fensive when he was supposed tJ v. had the larger force and when i. object was to advance Is not know

..r.ch he found himself when his out. .wsra were driven in was more suited q, defensive than to offensive oper,. tiOns.
 Whatever the reason Villa did not take the offensive and that Is regarde here ns Il grave mistake for the Mexi- can soldier is more efficient in an att tnck than in defence.
 The reports state that after Vilias advance guard and the troops thrown forward to support it were forced back onto his main line the federal commander hurled . flank attack or the right of the rebel line and bent i. back onto the center. With his formation zone and sustaining c lire from front and flank Villa was forced tc order a retreat and his troops fell back to the narrow passes of the hills f, his rear.
 Here he is said to be holding hla own against the federal army and 'o lc making preparations to again ad vance into the open and give battle tomorrow
 Much disappointment Is felt herr over the failure of the constitutional arms in this the initial engagement oe the widely advertised advance on Mexico City.

stoves to cheat all outdoors will
be installed to help save this year s
crop through the March and April
frosty periods.
Lighting 1000 fires will be no
small job, as they are not lighted
until one hour before daylight each
morning. Frost on the blossoms
gets in its deadly work when the
suns rays suddenly strike it. The
smudge fires send up light heat
and keep the blossoms alive. Crude
oil is used for fuel and the fires
are kept burning until the sun is
well toward the zenith.

Athletics At Delaware

Delaware College basketball team
meets the Washington College boys
Of Chestertown, Md, in cage con-
test in the locay gym Friday even
ing. Delaware is especially anx-
ious to capture this game to make
up for the 30 to IL defeat suffered
by the local team at the hands Of
Washington last Wednesday.
The season, which will be half
over with tonight's game, has not
been as successful as friends Of Old
Delaware would wish. Delaware
has lost to Susquehanna University,
DreXel Institute, and Washington
College. The only victory was the
game with Temple University.
Coach McAvoy, however, is exon
Grated from all blame, the condi-
ton being attributed to lack of
good basketball material. The weak
points in the playing are the often
sive work and inaccuracy in shoot
ing goals.
Candidates for the track team are
working out for short time in the
gymnasium every afternoon. The
work so far has been mostly done
by the runners and high jumpers.
Several men are out for the long
distance runs. Most likely of these
is Cranston, senior, who seems to
be in better shape than ever before.
The prospects are bright for a
fast relay team to send to the
Franklin Field Meet in April.

The Shape OF The
Ear And Its Yield

The superintendent of the Texas
substation at Temple, after a care
full study of the relation Of shape of
ear to yield of corn, concludes that
lightly tapering ears give the high
est yield. This is in accord with
the results Of experiments at the
Ohio Experimental Station, in
which extremely tapering ears gave
slightly higher results than cylin-
drical ears. High yields were as
sociated with comparatively smooth
kernels Of slightly more than aver
age depth and Of medium horni-
ness. The yield increased with an
increase in the total weight of the
ear as determind by slight incrase

The show is as good as any and bet

Billy Sunday
And Religion

The North American of Phila-
delphia has established a depart
ment which refers the question, "Is
a Revival Of Religion Impending 2"
to leading religious workers of the
country. Billy Sunday, the noted
evangelist gives the following an
swer, which we print at the request
OF one Of our readers:
I'm no century since the morn
ing stars sang together have the
people been more hungry for gen
uine religion than this, but we have
been witnessing two apparently
contradictory facts: The decline of
the church and the growth Of re-
lglous hunger in the masses.
The world during the nineteenth
and early twentieth centuries pass
ed through period of questioning,
during which everything in heaven
and earth was put into the crucible
and was melted down into it's con-
stituent elements.

made a short address and exhibited
some of the plans Of the college
that she had with her.
Miss Robinson and Mrs. Warner
both made addresses again in the
afternoon when {. large delegation
Of the Newark club members were

rather marked increase in weight Of
cob.
In experiments at the Ohio and
Nebraska experiment stations it
was found that the highest yields
were obtained with medium to me-
dium long ears. Poorly filled butts
and tips were more frequently as
sociated with high yield than well
filled, but high yields were more
frequently associated with well-fill-
ed butts than with well-flled.
