rush of air through the drifts of the

and bufteted them against rocks and
the jagged ends of mine timbers.
Many of those injured and killed, 1t

The electric lighting and hosting

Mexico City. Oct. 1.-Twenty-six
generals and twenty-four state gov
ernors attended the conference today
called by the plan of Guadalupe, Gen.
eral Carranza p residing, and read a
message reviewing his acts since he
assumed power as supreme chief of
the constitutionalists and reiterating
his willingness to abide by the deci-
sion of the conference regarding the
provisional presidency, the calling OF
elections and the scope of reform
laws.
A discussion ensued regarding the
advisability of adjourning the present
convention and meeting again at
Aguas Calientes, October S, when all
factions, including Gen. Emiliano Ia
pata, would be reported. Nothing
has been reached at the time of the
filing of this dispatch, but sentiment
among the delegates seemed to favor
adjournment until some time between
October and 10, when the present
body would meet with the northern
generals at Aguas Calientes. 1t was
proposed that Zapata be present at
this convention as a spectator only
without the right of voice or vote.
zapata delegates, however, would be
on the floor.
Freight traffic between the capital
and Vera Cruz has been suspended
for the past two days by the move
ment of troops toward this city
These soldiers belong to the division
under Gen. Jesus Carranza and many
are being sent to the surrounding
suburban towns to strengthen the
lines.
The nine-hour labor law applying

Villa Has Troubles.

FL Paso, Texas, Oct. Reports of
divisions in Gen. Francisco Villas
army were confirmed today by def
mite information received at the Dor
der from both official and impartial
sources. The Arrieta brothers, who
long have dominated the constitution
alist troops in the state of Durango,
are said to have revolted to Carranza.
Rumors that Gen Moncloyio Herrera
with his entire brigade had reyolted
against Villas authority were con
firmed. Tomas Urbina, one of Villas
leaders, is reported to have taken
Durango city from the Arrieta troops
after a battle,
While nominaliy attached to Villas
division the Arrieta brothers, DO
mingo and Mariana, on previous occa-
sons have refused to obey his orders
At the time of Villas final attack
on Torreon he ordered the Arrietas
to join him before that town with
their brigades. They refused, saying
they would not lead their troops out
order for their arrest but was unable
to spare troops to carry out the order
1t was said that Carranza's visit to
Durango in May was to adjust these
differences. As a result OF his visit
Mariana Arreta was placed In com
mand in Durango and Domingo led
his troops to join General Natera, in
the assault on Zacatecas. Carranza'3
order to Villa to reinforce Naterh iat
Zacatecas was intimately connetfed
with the first break between Car
rama and villa.
After the defeat of the Arrietas az
Durango Tuesday, it is reported in
advices to Juarez, they fled into
strongholds in the mountains.
Gen. Tomas Urbina, who is report
ed to have taken Durango from the
Arrietas. captured that city from the
federals in August, 1913. Herrera
and his troops are entrenched at Par
raj. 1t was reported that when Her
rera announced allegiance to Car
rama that Villa officials imprisoned
his brother Luis and their father,
Jose de la Luz Carranza, at Chihua-
hua City.
These internal disorders in villa
territory, it was admitted today, had
occasioned suspension of all outgoing
traffic on the Mexican Central rail
road to prevent the news reaching
the border.

Not paunted by Defeat.

Amsterdam. via London, Oct. l.
9:25 p. m.-The Berliner Tageblatt,
in a leading article, says
The German people wait anxiously
but with confidence further news
from the French war theater. The
news of the great advance of the
French troops against the flank of
our line should not unbaiance us.
Even if the French or English ad-
vance still further in a northwest di-
rection they always viii encounter
reinforcements which our command
ers have kept back in expectation of
such advances.
THE influence of the British rein
forcements makes itself more and
more felt They are effective to i'm
pede us, though the results will not
be lasting. Victory must be
ours all the same. If it is gained
after difficulty it will be AL the more
worth while.
THE center of the battle front Is
silent, listening breathlessly to the
struggle of both wings. Around Yer
dun a decision comes nearer; we
have forced our way through the
forest of Argonne, but found on the
heights on the west of the Mouse a
strong position which the enemy had
prepared. The French are experts at
building positions in their rear. We
know that such positions were, as far
as possible, constructed long before
the outbreak of the war"
After expressing the opinion that
the German armies between Verdun
and the Argonne constitute great
menace to the French, the article
continues:
But the obstinacy of the French
attack which always returns, and the
advance against us deserve just APP
probation and will have taught a ies-
son to all who expected an easy
time"

Marshall county farm land that was
titled produced crops worth $4,265,s97
in 1913. a moro valuable crop by $780,
557 than the 1912 crop. in spite Of a
, short corn and oats crop and smaller
yields of other small grains. Even with
lesser Yields, the much higher market
for the 1919 crop Of corn and oats made
farm products Of the year have a
greater money value than the enormous
crop Of 1912 With its correspondingly
lower prices.
Those are some of the summarized
statistics taken from the annual crop
reports. made by the assessors this
spring while making the tax assess
ment They are the only statistics of
their kind obtainable, and are therefore
Of value. In accompanying columns
fluctuations show the detailed statistics
Of yields. prices, values Of crops, etc.
Smaller Crops, Higher Prices.
Excessive dry weather for several
weeks during the midsummer last year
cut the corn. oats, wheat and potato
crops. There were large decreases in
all these crops, compared with the
1912 crops, which were unusually large
but, as the yield was smaller, the mar
ket was higher than the year before. In
fact none of the important crops of
1913, except tame hay, gave as large or
a larger yield than the same crops did
in 1912.
The 1913 corn crop fell off 1,492,032
bushels compared with the 1912 crop
The yields for both years were: 1918,
4,577. $50 bushels; 1912, 6,O69, 1872 bushels
But the 1912 crop was selling for "a
cents Dec. l that year. while Dec. /,
1913 corn was worth So cents. The
comparative Dec. l cash value Of the
two corn crops were: 1918, $2,654s68;
1912, $2.063.593, making the smaller 1913
corn crop worth s591,275 more than the
1912 crop.
Oats Also Worth More.
In yield. Of oats fell off 676.2S2
bushels in 1913 compared with 1912, but
the 1913 crop was worth $5,S16 more
than the harvest of the year before.
The totals for the two years were:
Yields. 1913, 2,4s7,072 bushels: 1913,
3.143.S53 bushels: values. 1913, $685.
so4: 1912. &sa2,sss.
The average yield Of corn per acre in
1913 was .40.3 bushels compared with
51.7 bushels In 1912. and of oats 1872
Bushels in 1913 compared with 42.2
bushels an acre in 1912.
Few Increased Yields.
The largest increased yield of any
crop was tame hay which produced
9.191 tons more last year than in 1912.
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1914-05-14

All the small grains showed lesser
yield, but winter and spring wheat
showed an increase yield per acre n
1913 over 1912. The average winter
wheat yield per acre was 227 bushels
compared with 20.S in 1913. Spring
wheat yielded 1871 bushels an acre COM
pared with 1907 bushels per acre In
1912.
Live Stock on Increase.
The numbers of all kinds of live
stock, excepting sheep. showed an in
crease over 1912. Most noticeable was
the increase of 1884 hogs, In spite of
the cholera. Horses. mules. dairy
cattle, and cattle Of all kinds showed
small but material gains. There was a
falling off in the number of sheep
shipped in to feed. and the number
shipped out to slaughter. Poultry de-
creased $3.50, but the number Of eggs
produced increased 1910 dozen.
