The Plans Announced.

The regents propose:
To extend to the committees in
charge of the Adams county demon
stration farm such assistance as may
be rendered by the state college ex-
pertinent farm, the bureau of farm
development, extension department,
and department of agriculture; all
these departments to promote better
agriculture in the dry belt.
To employ at once a special farm
agent for the dry district. This agent
will be under the direction of the head
of the experiment station, and will
work in harmony with the bureau Of
farm development. He is to devote his
entire time to the problems of dry
farming in the arid regions and will
visit all parts of said territory.
To continue investigation of the
basic problems of dry farming.
To conduct, under the auspices of
the agricultural department, such CO.
operative experiments with farmers of
the region as may seem wise.
The board proposes to use the bu-
erau of farm development as far as
possible in the solution of these prob
lens. This cost will fall largely upon
the counties.
To institute cooperative experiments
in the propagation and adaptation of
shrubs for windbreaks, with a view to
making the dry belt a region of per
manent homes.
To publish additional popular bull
letins for the special use of the farm
ers Of the dry section, setting forth
the most approved method of tillage
conservation and cropping.
To use the extension department for
the betterment of the social and eco
nomic conditions and more particular
ly for farming and live stock.
The regents will ask the next legis-
lature for a special appropriation fol
experimental and demonstration wori

This tragedy is laid at the doors of
Maxine Castillo, the bandit leader
A special train carrying 20 Ameri-
cans, led by w. j. Farragut of the
Mexico Northwestern railroad, rs cot
fins and a rescue outfit left here Sun
day for the scene.
The exact number of persons aboard
the passenger train, which consisted of
one first-class, two second-class, a bag
gage and express car and a freight car,
is not known. First reports put the
number at 35, but the request for cof-
fins was for 75
The searching party, led by DR.. T..
c. Herr of MADEIRA, was unable to pen
citrate far enough into the tunnel to
count the dead. These it is expected,
will be found strewn along the poison
Gus reaches of the tunnel, where they
fell in attempting to escape.
The missing Americans are: M. j..
Gilmartin, superintendent of the Chi
huahua division; H. Schofield, super
intendent of terminals at Juarez; Lee
Williams, assistant manager of com
missary; H. Marders, express agent;
E. j. McCutcheon, engineer, and j. e.
Webster, conductor; Edward Morris,
roadmaster, Thomas Kelly and James
Burgess.
Two Mexican cowboys were respon-
sible for a report that all had escaped
and that the Americans were being
held for ransom. There was rejoicing
at this, but the jubilation was short
lived, for soon after the bulletins from
DIR. Herr began to arrive.

he went. It was not long before one
night at ball he saw De Beauville
dancing with the noblesse of France
and. going up to him. drew his glove
across his face. There was no avoid
ing a meeting. and De Beauville con-
scented to fight.
The two men met on field where
such affairs were accustomed to take
place. De Beauville was a good
swordsman, but somehow there was
something in having injured his op-
ponent, something SO uncanny In that
opponents treatment of him. that the
count could not fight in his usual
form. Sinclair soon showed that he
had the advantage both in GOODNESS
and skill and after giving his enemy
several chances finally ended the com
bat.
Then the young American returned

"Where the Money Goes. +"

Ia recent letter to Governor
Ammons OF Colorado, regarding taxa.
ton, Governor Haines of Idaho says:
"The subject OF taxation is one
that has aroused deep interest 10 the
state of Idaho and one that has been
given much attention by our state
officials and our legislature IN recent
years. I have personally devoted a
great deal OF thought to the subject
and early came to the conclusion that
la order to get results it was abso.
lutely essential as preliminary
requirement to have the taxpayers
fully informed as to "where the
money goes" In my campaign for
election as chief executive of this
state, l advised voters to study their
tax receipts, In fact to take their tax
receipts with them to the polls. ]
have followed this up by having oul
state tax commission issue report
showing how every dollar of tan
money was applied and how much II
has cost to conduct every division oil
government. including state, county,
school district, city and village
These figures were illuminating and
showed where the big expenses were
incurred and where the cut must bt
made to be effective and afford relief
Having located the source Of bigt
taxes, it will be easier to appl,
remedies, which must be along thu
lines of making the public dollar x
as far as tae private dollar, and thu
holding down of public expenditure
to correspond to our wealth ant
growth"
