WASHINGTON, ID. c., April 2S-A
formal statement regarding the with
drawal of naval forces from Tampico.
made today by the Navy Department,
gave the following reasons:
Admiral Mayo was informed by
persons intimately in touch with the
situation at Tampico that it was nee
essary for the safety of all foreigners
that the United States naval vessel
should be near the town. He was in
formed that Mexicans apparently
considered war on and that the Fed
eral and Constitutionalist forces were
exchanging overtures to unite their
forces against Americans, and that
the presence of United States ships
near Tampico would almost surely
cause the two forces to combine. The
British naval captain volunteered to
send out all Americans and Admiral
Mayo decided that it was in the best
interests of Americans IN Tampico
that his forces should not be at at
Tampico
Admiral Badger agreed entirely
with Admiral Mayo and so reported
to the department. which, in view, oil

The aggressive campaign that has
been waged for the past few years in
the interest Of better farming by the
use Of legumes has not been without
its reward. As farmers have become
better acquainted with these crops
and as they have more fully under
stood their economy in crop produc-
ton, the greater has grown the de-
mand for information about them.
Nor is this surprising, for when we
recognize the value Of cover crops,
and the advantage of legumes as
cover crops. as preventers Of .erosions.
eonservers of plant food which might
otherwise be leached out Of the soil;
and. also their power to add to the
supply Of plant food, deepen the soil
and add to its supply of humus: to
improve its physical condition, and,
In addition. their value as hay and
grazing crops, to the progressive
farmer they become very interesting.
But to properly perform the functions
o. winter crop, those adapted to
that purpose should be sowed suffi-
eientiy early to so cover the soil be-
fore their growth is stopped by cold
weather as to protect it from erosion.
But when they are sowed even too
late for that. their root system may
make enough growth to stop large
part Of the waste of plant food that
would be leached out of bare soil.
Then it is a we'll known fact that Of
the three essential elements in plant

agency Of bacteria peculiar to the
particular kind of legume grown. For
instance, the cowpeas will thrive only
pea is present; the soy bean requires
the presence of bacteria adapted to
that plant; crimson clover will thrive
only when the bacteria peculiar to
that plant Is present; and so on
throughout the entire list. with GER
tain exceptions. Those now known
are: garden or English peas, and the
vetches can become 1noculated with
the same bacteria. Alfalfa, sweet

Most OF the legumes when cut at
the proper time and we'll cured make
very fine quality of hay. When the
hay can be used to advantage on the
farm, 1t is much better to make the
crop into hay and feed 1t to live stock;
but if the land needs 1t more than
the live stock does. then 1t may pay
better to turn it under for soil i'm
provement Each farmer may decide
this for himself However. it may be
well to remember that feeding hay to
live stock does not add anything to
its fertilizing value. Therefore the
manure of given quantity Of hay
fed to live stock and the manure re-
turned to the land will not contain
as much plant food as the grass would
have furnished if 1t had been plowed
under instead of having been made
into hay and fed to the live stock.

HILL SELECTION OF SEED CORN

Hill selection Of seed Is urged by
every institution interested in the Inn
provement of corn. BY selecting corn
from the standing stalks in the field
one can consider other things besides
the ear itself. The height Of the ear
on the stalk and the strength of the
stalk may both be considered, and
whether or not the ear grew on q stalk
that had the whole hill to itself or had
to compete with two or three other
stalks can be determined, while If one
waits until the corn has been cut these
factors cannot be considered.
Early selection of seed corn from the
hill has many important advantages
over selection later in the season. In
the first place, it enables one to select
ears that are known to have matured
at the proper time, while If the selec-
ton is deferred and weather condt-
tons continue favorable. some Of the
later maturing ears may be selected.
because they are likely to be larger
and heavier
While the large, heavy ears are de-
sirable, one cannot prof1tably select
them at the expense of maturity, be-
cause corn that will not mature is
bound to be an Improbable crop.
Early selection from the hill avoids
the danger Of the corn being injured
by frost while it is still damp in the
husk.--A D. Wilson.
