TESTING SEED is URGED.

Alexandria, La, Feb. 24.-H. M.
Cottrell, agricultural commissioner
of the Rock Island lines, is here to-
day in the interest of inducing the
farmers to test their cotton and corn
seed for the coming crops. before
planting. He says that he has come
here specially to sound a warning.
In various parts of Oklahoma. Ar
kansas and Kansas. 1t has been found
that seed are not terminating. Tests
have been made, and it has been
found that only Is to 25 per cent Of
the seed is good. The State Bank
ers' association of the States named
have started a campaign to urge the
farmers to test their seed right away
and IL found deficient to take steps
to procure good seed. The associa-
tion is to act as a clearing house to
locate the seed and procure from
those that have them to spare for
fhosc that are short.
The state superintendent Of educa-
ton through the county superintend-
ents are assisting in this campaign
with the farmers. TO awaken them to
the necessity of testing their seed-
Mr.. Cottrell states that while the
condition of seed in Louisiana may
not be as it has been found elsewhere
siill he will be surprised IL it is not,
as the same adverse weather condi-
tions prevailed in Louisiana in 1913
as did in Arkansas and Oklahoma.
He urges that the campaign be
started in Louisiana or there VIII be
crop failures.

VILLA TELLS WHY
BRITEsHER WAS SHOT
American, Spaniard, German, Japan
ese or Any Such Offender Would
Have Been Shot.


chihuahua, Mex, Feb. 24.--Gen.
Villas story of the killing of william
S. Benton, told to reporters here to-
day, differs but little from the Of
ficial statement given out Saturday
at Juarez.
The Juarez statement declared
that when Benton reached for his hip
pocket villa knocked him down with
a blow of the fist. villa said that
when Benton made this move he pok-
ed his own pistol into Benton's stom-
ach and then turned him over to the
guards
villa insisted that Benton came to
take his life and referred to Benton's
mission concerning the welfare OF
his ranch as "pretext" to gain ad-
mittance.
According to villa, Benton, after
the verdict of the courtmartial, con-
fessed his guilt and declined to ask
for mercy, He merely requested that
his property be turned over to his
widow.
On Benton's death he said:
Denton gained entrance TO my
office in Juarez on the pretext that
he wanted to see me on some per-
sonal business connected with his
ranch, Los Remedies, near the city
of Chihuahua. AS soon as he enter
ed he began to address me in abusive
language. had had some expert
ence with him before and knew of his
violent temper. knew also that he
had mixed too freely in Mexican pol
itics, but l did not suspect that he
was coming into my office to murder
me.
"He had not talked long when he
reached for his hip pocket 1t flash
cd cver me tnat he intenGoi to kill
ms. ! grabbed his land and at ths
same siIre Trust my revolver into
the pit of his stomach to ztoP aim
did not wish to appear bloodthirtsty
and therefore did not shoot him my
self
"The guards seized him, took his
pistol from him and placed him un-
der arrest. 1t was decided to try him
by courtmartial and this was done
in the regular manner prescribed by
law and the prisoner was executed
eighteen hours after he made the at.
tempt on my life. That is all there
is to 1t.
1--WE would have treated any 9th
er offender in the same way. wheth-
er he were American, Spanish, Ger
man, or Japanese"
