AND TROUBLE IS FEARED
Belief Expressed That Open Break
Between Rebel Leaders Cannot
Long Be Averted.

Ell PASO. Tex, June 29.-Lack of am
muntion has blocked Gen. Villas march
toward Mexico City. Villa. fresh from
his victory last week at Zacatecas. has
returned to Torreon, taking his entire
army with him.
The relations of the northern zone COM

ion of agents here today. unquestionably
caused the abandonment of the cam
paign. The much discussed Carranza-
Villa estrangement has reached a break
ing point, they asserted. in that the con-
stitutfonalist commander-in-chief has de-
clined to allow Villa to import cartridges
for his men and shells for his artillery
through the port of Tampico. The port
of Tampico now is the only entYway for
munitions which the revolutionists may
use. as the border still is closed to them

ports here Carranza men. however. de-
clare that Villa did not get the Antilla
ammunition, which. they say, is still in
Monterey.
News of Villas return north was re-
garded here as ominous by both factions.
An earlier report said Villa was re-
turning to Torreon because the federals
had evacuated Aguas Calientes. leaving
no enemy to confront him: but without
ammunition he could not have fought a
battle had the federals remained.

ZACATECAs. Mexico. June q tvta Ell
Paso. June 20.-Late reports show that
the losses of the federals here were much
greater than at first supposed. While final
figures have not been obtained. it is
known that the number OF prisoners
taken by Villas troops exceed 1900.
The number Of killed was at least close
to that figure. Nearly 1000 wounded
federal soldiers are being cared for
by the constitutionalists' hospital
corps
The latest casualty reports of the
constitutionalists were over 100 dead
and about LOO wounded. These fig

tary service and while reports have
been made by them mono is thought to
be complete.
Villas Friend Killed.
1t has been learned here that Gen.
Trinidad Rodriguez. commander Of the
Circumference brigade. who was shot
through the throat last Tuesday. died
Of his wound. Gen. Rodriquez was
leading his brigade when he was

of this officer keenly. The two were
close friends. Gen. Rodriguez will be
buried at Parral.

Lepraphobia.

The horror of lepers is religious hor-

good at diagnosing diseases, and their
accounts mix up leprosy with several
other ailments that are highly infectious.
Leprosy is not nearly so fatal as tuber-
culosis, and it is not so easily catch

of lepers who have attended them for
years hold that it is not spread at all

HOERTA AND REBELS IN
REPUTED PEACE TALK
American Back From Mexico CITY
Also Reports Army Dis
affection.

VERA CRUZ. June 29.-Secret peace
negotiations between Gen. Carranza
and President Huerta have been in
progress In the capital according to
Antonio Magnon. an American. who has
arrived from Mexico City. Mr.. Magnon
said 1t was positively known that rep
resentatives Of Carranza had been in
the capital several days in conference
with President Huerta. but that the
details of the discussions were un-
known.
Mr.. Magnon said. also. that Presi-
dent Huerta's volunteer forces at San
Luis Potosi including all the noted
chieftains. such as Gen. -Pascual Orocco
and Gen. Antonio Rojas. had refused to
army or to withdraw toward the CAPT
tai. but would fight the constitutional
lists In that region.
The volunteer chieftains. most Of
whom are veterans of the three years
border warfare, are all frontiersmen,
and. according to Mr.. Magnon. declare
the federal recruits are hopeless as
soldiers and only hamper the actions Of
the veteran volunteers.
Severe Blow to Huerta.
Gen. Garcia Pena, according to Mr..
Magnon. Is stil at soledad. but there
are indications that the federal forces
before Vera Cruz are being rapidly re-
duced and that only a thin fringe OF
rural guards will be left to maintain
the outposts.
Mr.. Magnon declared II was generally
believed In the capital that the refusal
of the volunteers to take orders from
the regular officers would be severe
blow to President Huerta, as the vol
unteers were his most trustworthy
troops.
1t was thought in the capital that q
peace agreement between Huerta ano

ton, was certain to come soon. Car

Carranza Declares His Leaders Will

This declaration was made by Gen.
venustiano Carranza at a banquet at
Monterey Saturday night according to
travellers who arrived here yesterday.
Carranza, it was said. asserted that the
United States was assuming dictatorial
attitude. The 400 Mexicans who attended
the banquet received the declaration with

He mentioned no names.
No Reference to Mediation.
Carranza, those who reached here de-
clared. made no reference to mediation,
but other constitutionalist leaders who
spoke at the banquet expressed the view
that by International custom the good
Offices are strictly defined and were con-
fined to bringing together the parties In
dispute.
The Niagara mediators. however, they
said, not only tried to bring the dispu-
tants together. but also had attempted to
dictate a policy on which they were to
agree.
Gov. Villareal of Nuevo Leon defended
the action of the constitutionalists in that
state in closing churches and burning con-
fessionals. He is said to have indicated
in his speech a resentment of interference

tional authority.

LIBRARY DAY.

Library Day" in the Schools
Teachers and students cannot be re-
minded too often of the part that books
and reading play in human life and in
education, and in some states aspec-
ial day is set apart each year to be
observed as Library Day" or Book
lay. Such an observance not only
emphasizes the Importance of reading
and loving COOL books, but it also af-
fords an excellent opportunity for ex-
planning the various interests and
needs of the school library and enlist
ing the cooperation and help of the
patrons, Although no special time has
been appointed in North Carolina for
the observance of Library Day" we
suggest that every school in the state
make books and Libraries the subject
OF the exercises held on the last Fri
day afternoon in January. The L.
brary Commission will gladly make
suggestions and furnish material for
the program. c. Library Bulletin.

WONDERFUL ALFALFA.
The Farmers Friend and Money
Saver.
BY F. D. Coburn. Secretary Of Agri-
culture of Kansas.


The most remarkable development
OF a new agricultural p 9duct in the
United States within the last quarter
o a century has been with alfalfa, a
hay and pastureSpIant which twenty
FIVE years ago probably not one farm
er in ten thousand had heard of. Now
more than a million acres of it are
growing in Kansas alone, while Me-
braska has two-thirds as much, and
nearly every other state is Increasing
ite acreage. Wherever grown it is the
hsndmaiden Of prosperity, and those
who have known it longestt and best
are those who esteem it most.
Since its advent alfalfa has sold
more Kansas and Nebraska land and
at higher prices than any other n
growth, commodity or influence. Raw
lands, with almost no sale and consid-
cred a burden at a fiYe-do1lar valua-
ton, have been quick sales at $40, SIS
and sometimes 500 PEI acre when
seeded to alfalfa. Others, although
not by any means the best, have year
after year paid owners ten to forty
Per cent. on valuation Of $500 and
more per acre. No farms change
hands less frequently than those hay-
ing alfalfa fields, because the owners
know of no Investment likely to pay
so we'll and fear to name prices they
may later regret.
Those claiming it is not adapted to
their locality need to be reminded OF
what a h~umiliating reflection it is
upon themselves and their land to adj
nit that this hardy. wellnigh everlass-
ing perennial, prospecting nearly
everywhere else, cannot be grown on
their own farm. The fact of having
tried it in a given locality once or
twice without success signifies little as
to its adaptability, a sthe sower may
have done none of the simplest things
needful to its prosperity. Such a fail
ure should serve to make the expert
menter more determined, and no
householder who has two acres of
ground and keeps a horse, COW, pig or
poultry should be satisfied without
having part of his ground in alfalfa
for soiling for hay OF pasture.
None but the best grade of seed
should be sown. There is no such
thing as Cheap" seed, for poor seed
can alone nuIify all the sewers plans,
however perfect. Favorable condi-
tons for sowing mean a reasonably
fertile, well drained, lined and frmed
sell in good tilth, freed from weed
seeds. trash, clods and stones AMI
smoothed to resemble a floor surface
as nearly as possible for if the SOW
ing succeeds the ground In the years
that follow will be gone over many
times with mowers, rakes and work
men, and a carefully evened surface
will prove worth many times moro
more than the cost.
