Lexington, Ky.-The annual conven-
ton of agricultural college editors of
the United States will meet in Lexing-
ton at the experiment station. This
association held its first convention at
Urbana, ILL.,, and perfected its organiza-
tion. T. r. Bryant, Kentucky agricul-
tural experiment station, represented
Kentucky and, along with several
others, presented a formal invitation
from Lexington to the convention to
meet here in 1914. A committee was
appointed to look into the claims of
the several states and decided in favor
of Kentucky. 1t has been found neces-
sary by all the leading agricultural col
leges of the United States to have, in
connection with their extension seFv-
ice, an editor whose duty it is, through
newspapers, newspaper syndicates,
bulletins and otherwise, to give to the
farming public the instruction the ex-
pertinent stations wish to have put
into practice.

ADvl5EARSENaTEo oFLEAD
Experiments Prove That It Is More
Efficient Than Paris Green.

Frankfort, Ky.-Tobacco growers in
Kentucky and adjoining states are ad-
vised by government specialists to use
arsenate of lead in freeing their crop
of hornworms-the greatest pest that
the grower in the dark-tobacco dis
tricts has to face. Arsenate of lead is
said to be both effective and safer than
Paris green which has been used ex-
tensively against the pests for some
years. With it there is no risk of
burning the tobacco and this alone, in
the opinion of the United States de-
partment of agriculture, makes it's use
advisable despite the somewhat in
creased expense. In addition it ap-
pears, unlike Paris green, to have no
injurious effect upon the operator.
Until recent years it was customary
to pick off the hornworms by hand
hand worming" as the work was
called. AS labor grew scarcer and
less effective. however, this method be-
came too expensive and growers were
compelled to employ an insecticide.

THE BLUEGRASS SEED CROP.

Winchester, Ky.-Thomas w. Brock
has finished the gathering of his grass
seed crop and the yield will be in ex-
cess of 10000 bushels. The crop has
been sold for August 1 delivery at so
cents. J. Warrick Gay will have a
crop of about 10000 bushels gathered
by the close of the week, and this, to-
gether with crop left over from last
year, will give him probably the
largest holding of seed of any farmer
in the county. 1t is freely predicted
that the price for August delivery will
go from 80 to rs cents, as the crop
is of good quality and up to the aver
age in quantity. One of the largest
yields to the acre in the county is that
on the Prewitt, Cockrell and Hon
farms, on the Mt. Sterling pike, which
will average fifteen to eighteen bushels
an acre. Winchester has for years
practically controlled the bluegrass
market for the country, and from
present indications will continue to do
SO.

Frankfort, Ky.-The Extension De-

Station has about completed arrange
ments with the Louisville & Nashville
Railroad Co. to run a special train
through the eastern part of Kentucky,
starting probably about July 13. The
eastern part of the state is not adapted
to general agriculture, but offers rare
opportunities for poultry raising and
fruit growing and these will be made
the main feature of the instruction
train, which will be equipped with ex-
hibition and Illustrative material and
manned by a corps of lecturers. The
first stop will be made at Richmond
and then the train will continue south
to the Tennessee line, returning to
Corbin through Middlesboro, thence to
Benham and back to Richmond. From
Richmond the train will go by way of
Beattyville Junction over the entire
length of the Lexington & Eastern
railroad and return by way of Jackson
and Winchester. The trip will last
two weeks.

ABILITY TO MASS REBEL ARMY
FOR zAcATEcAS ATTACK.
Natera Lost 5000 Men in His On
slaught-Carranza Secures Release
of Juarez Employees.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Torreon, MeXico.-Gen. Pancho
Villas campaign against Mexico City
has been halted. Almost before the
rebel army was fairly on its way to
the south its progress has been check
ed by a wholly unexpected advance
movement of federals, which coupled
with insufficient rolling stock to trans
port the more than 10000 men and
equipment quickly, and the torn-up
condition of the railroad, has seriously
interfered with Villas plans.
A skirmish at Calera, 19 miles from
Zacatecas, which was reported to be a
rebel victory, really was surprise to
the rebels and served to check their
progress. 1t did not, however, check
the fight of the thoroughly demoral-
lied forces of Rebel Gen. Natera, who
had been driven back from Zacatecas
by Gen. BaTon's federal troops with
the loss practically of One-half of
Natera's original army of more than
5000.
Advices reaching here from the
front say the federals have sent strong
forces north from Zacatecas to meet
and check the rebel advance, and that
the strength of the federal garrison
at Zacatecas is proving surprise to
the rebels.
1t was not realized by Villa how
completely Gen. Natera's army was
vanquished in the assaults upon Ia
catecas. Natera really has but rem.
nant of his army left, and it is esti
mated that he lost in killed, injured
and captured fully 5000 men.
Zacacetas promises to be the scene
Of a great battle. Already the rebels
are finding federal opposition every
step of the way. The main portion Of
Villas army was not ready to make
a general assault.

Gruesome Find.

Cynthiana, Ky.-A human skeleton
was discovered by the children of Mrs.
Wiley Taylor in the woods Of T. T.
Taylor, on the Falmouth pike, whittier
they had gone to gather wild flowers.
Following an investigation by Coroner
Rees, who was notified of the dis
covery, when the children returned
home, it was declared that the remains
were those of Danied Morrison, man
about 20 years old, the identity being
established by bits of clothing and an
overcoat that was recognized by one
of his sons as belonging to his absent
father. Morrison has been missing
since May 2. His children concerned
themselves little, thinking he had gone
to Missouri for summer outing, or
had taken trip to the mountains.
The remains were taken to Cynthiana.
