VILLAS POSITION.

{ From the New York Worldly
With Villas warfare continuing holly
in the north, the Mexican armistice
seems ineffective, while the disposition
of the Mexican generals at the capital
to force Carranza to retain his control
of the Federal government does not
promise a satisfactory outcome of the
projected conference at Aguascalientes,
II. indeed, that conference is ever held.
Carranza has declared that he would
abide by the decision Of the council
of generals, and that decision has been
made. Unless he changes his mind,
or Villa changes his, more strife Is in
evitable.
It must be admitted that Villas
contention that Carranza contemplates
establishing military government is
borne out by the proceedings OF the
council on Saturday, in which no
civilian was permitted to speak and in
which the summary treatment Of the
delegates from Oaxaca indicated an in
tent to deprive of all voice in the gov
eminent any man who has ever sup
ported any leader except Carranza. Il
the government is to be thus formed, II
can include few Mexicans of mature
years who had formed political ideas
previous to last year. But we mus
remember that the excitement is alb
normal in Mexico City now, and that
whatever the shortcoming of the con
stitutionalists may be, there is sount
common sense in the assertion latel.

(By J. r. Kicks, State Agronomist.)

(By J. r. Kicks, State Agronomist.)
There is every reason to believe
that the price Of corn and oats will
be much higher next year than 1t has
been for many years. For this reason
every farmer who can possibly do 50
should plant few acres to oats this
fall. Fall planting of oats is surer and
more profitable than spring planting.
Daring the last ten years oats planted
in the fall al this station have yield.
ed, on the average, about one-third
more per acre than spring planted oats.
In some cases the yield is double.
II the time will permit, good pre-
paration will pay well. In one OF our
experiments where the land was thor
oughly broken and narrowed, we OBJ
tanned bushels per acre more than
where the oats were disced in on pea
stubble. The plants were on land that
would ordinarily produce one-half to
three-fourth of bale of cotton per
acre. II one Is pushed for time, then put
the oats in in the quickest way.
Not less than two bushels of oats
per acre should be planted and three
bushels will give a bigger yield. A
grain drill should be used for puttlns

these drills. In 1911 the yield from

son grass hey. Lands capable Of pro-
ducing a bale Of cotton per acre should
yield around so bushels of oats per
acre under normal conditions. Our
expense for growing oats on the above
johnson grass land was Is cents a
bushel. This figures in every expense
even to the rent Of the land just as If
a man would rent farm, buy the seed,
and then hire all of the work done.
The value of an oat crop planted
in the fall is more than the grain and
the straw obtained. The winter graz
ing from the crop is quite an item.
When the crop is planted on sandy
soils great deal more grazing can be
had than when the crop is on the
sitter soils; however, there will be
times when these stiff soils will be dry
enough for stock to Craze. The graz
ing of oats when the land is not wet
is beneficial to the crop. 1t causes the
plants to make stronger root and tc

ing from the roots of one. and thus
thickens the stand. The results OBJ

planted oats is the cheapest grail
