Villa Attacks SaltiIlo.

FL Paso, Texas, Sept. 30.-Villa's
troops have attacked Saltillo despite
arrangements for peace conferences
with representative of Carranza, ac-
cording to an announcement here to-
day by villa agets. These agents de-

A strong force of Villas troops left
Chihuahua several days ago for Sal

home state. 1t was announced that
they had taken Paredon, the junction
point of the railroad between Tor
reon and Monterey from which Sal
tillo is reported Carranza's soldiers
made no resistance at that point, it
was said, and the Villa advance on
Saltillo also was unopposed. The re
suit of the fighting at Saltillo was
not made known here.
Reliable Information from other
sources received here seemed to
show that Villa is having trouble in
his own ranks. 1t was said General
Maclovio Herrera, commander of one
of Villas strongest brigades, had re
fused to participate in the revolt
against the Carranza government. All
outgoing railroad traffic has been
stopped in the vicinity of Parral,
where Herreras troops have been
located.
A former clash between Villa and
Herrera. whose men took an active
part in Villas successful north Mex
leo campaigns, is said to have oc-
cured last spring after the battles
at Torreon, over a distribution of
money. 1t was said efforts had been
made to patch up the present diff

northward and, according to the
French official statement, that
battle continues to develop more

More Money Spent for Pork Than
for Religion and Education.
FACTORIES OF GREAT NEED
Hogs Are Essential to Manufacture
Cheap Leguminous Crops That We
Must Grow to Increase Pro-
d%uctiveness of Our Soils.
1Rv G. II. ALFoRDl

We spend more money for pork
than we do for education and religion.
We send millions of dollars to the
north and west for pork and pork
productions. We are paying Is cents
a pound for pork, and the records of
the experiment stations and the actual
experience of hundreds Of farmers
show that pork can easily be produced
in this territory for three cents a
pound.
We urge capitalists to build fac
tories and encourage the building OF
factories by exempting them from tax
alton for a period of years. We ex-
empt factories from taxation, and at
the same time send money out to pay
for pork manufactured elsewhere. We
certainly need factories of all kinds
in all towns and cities. and especially
The Tupelo journal., 1914-01-16

One season the peas were grown on
very poor hill land and produced $50
pounds of pork per acre. The next
season the crop was grown on bottom
land and produced 483 pounds of pork
per acre. The hogs were turned in
when the first pods began to ripen.
Professor Duggar, at the Alabama
station, found an acre of Spanish pea
nuts on poor, gravelly land produced
900 pounds of live weight of hogs, and
an acre of COW peas about 400 pounds.
No country on earth has such advan-
tages for raising cheap pork, and yet
no country raises so little Of it.
We are told by a bulletin issued by
the Louisiana station that n acre OF
Spanish peanuts grown on poor land
at Calhoun contained 1872 pounds of
nitrogen, worth at commercial fertil-
izers' value at least $23. An acre of
velvet beans contained 191 pounds.
and an acre of GOV peas 108 pounds.
These crops made from two to three
IONS of feed stuffs richer in food ele-
ments than wheat bran. When such
feed stuffs can be harvested by hogs
without serious loss of fertilizing
value, is there any excuse for poor
land and the shipping of pork and lard
into the south?
The Tupelo journal., 1914-01-16

do we need hogs to manufacture the
cheap leguminous crops that we must
grow to increase the productiyeness
of our soils, the grasses, peanuts, peas,
potatoes and the like into pork and
pork products. The hogs to manu-
facture grasses and grains into pork
will declare by far the larger divi-
dends. 1t is not necessary for the
farmer to take stock in cotton factories
in order to be a manufacturer. Let
him keep plenty of good hogs on his
farm and he will be n Of the most
prosperous manufacturers of useful
products.
On a farm where good pastures can
be had and corn produced in abun
dance, the hog will be found to be a
sure profit producer one year with an
other. Good pastures, peanuts, peas
in corn, potatoes, chufas, rape, sor-
.ghum and peas and corn mean plenty
of cheap pork.
The first investment is small n
he is the quickest money maker OF all.
He will live and grow fat on the waste
products of the farm that other stock
will not eat. He is ready for market
almost any time and will bring the top
price if fat. He multiplies rapidly,
and if we only give him good pastures.
pure water and a little corn. He will
do the rest.
Bermuda grass alone will keep a
hog in good growing condition all the
summer. Excellent winter and early
spring pastures can be obtained by
sowing hairy vetch, white, red, or burr
clover seed broadcast on the Bermuda
or carpet grass sod early in the fall.
Oats. rye. rape or orchard grass plant
ed early in October furnish good win
ter pasture for hogs. Peanuts and
sweet potatoes, chufas and artichokes
planted in April make excellent feed
for hogs in the fall and winter. Two
paintings of peas can be made, n Of
an early variety and one of a late va
riety, in April. Two varieties can be
planted at the same time again in
June or July. Very little corn is nee
essary.
We can no longer raise cotton to
buy pork. We must raise cheap crops
of peanuts, COW peas, sorghum, arti-
chokes, red clover, rape and so on for
hogs to Craze. No man has ever been
able to give a sensible reason for
growing cotton to pay for bacon and
lard instead of growing cheap legumin-
Gus crops to raise hogs. No man has
ever been able to give a sensible rea-
son for feeding corn from weaving
time to killing time instead of raising
hogs on pasture grasses and cheap

leguminous crops. If we wish to
make the greatest success raising
hogs, we must grow cheap crops for
the hogs to Craze.
The following is taken from bulletin
No. 1O7, by Prof. J. w. Fox. from the
Mississippi delta station: I'VE wish
to call particular attention to the i'm
portance of a pea field, planted in corn
at the last working, as a factor in
cheap pork production. We made an
experiment last fall to determine the
value of such a pasture, the result
of which should be very gratifying to
the southern farmers, who have a mo-
nopoly on such a pasture, the result
ern farmer cannot grow peas planted
in corn, but must give them the use
of the land during the entire growing
season."
After the corn was gathered, 81
spring pigs were turned into the pea
field of II acres. They had no addi-
tional feed. The gain made from the
peas was 1888 pounds, or ITO pounds
per acre. At six cents per pound. this
gives a value for the peas of 5000 per
acre. And this is net, az the hogs
did their own harvesting. Also the
nj and humus from the stalks,
vines and seeds were left on the land
BY tests made at the station for two
years to determine the value of the
peas grown in the corn as a fertilizer,
it has been found that they increase
the succeeding cotton crop by ITO
pounds of lint per acre."
The following succession of crops
is recommended by the Louisiana ex-
pertinent station: SOW oats the latter
part of September for fall and winter
grazing, counting about Is or 20 head
of hogs per acre. Sow red clover or
crimson clover in October to be pas
tured after the oats, late in January,
and through February and March and
April. Sow sorghum early in March
to which transfer hogs from clover.
After harvesting oats, plant Mexican
June corn and COW peas in a portion
of the land, and peanuts and sweet
potatoes on the remainder. Use corn
and a portion in peanuts for finishing
off the hogs for the market, or slaugh-
ter at home"
Professor Lloyd, one of the best
posted agri~culturists in the south, sug-
gests the following plan for a hog
pasture: "Oats and vetch planted In
September will furnish grazing Deem
Der, January, February, March and

Financier Denies That Farmers Are
Extravagant When They Pur-
chase Automobiles.

SO much has been said Of extrava-
gance on the part of farmers in their
OUTLAWS for automobiles that a recent
statement by Luther Drake, president
OF a bank at Omaha, has peculiar In
terest. AS reported in Automobile
Topics, he disagrees radically with
those who talk of "the enormous
sums wasted on automobiles that
might better be invested in stocks
and securities "-that is, he makes
this statement with reference to farm
ers. He believes that in Nebraska
and other portions Of the wheat belt,
farmers as a rule a we'll afford to
buy automobiles II they wish to.
While an investment estimated at
$780, 600, 900 In a single state Of the
Union may be startling, he Is far
from believing the farmers Of Nebras-
ka have gone on AN automobile de-
bauch." He believes they "are much
better able to pay for their cars than
people Id towns and cities" Within
the last ten years, they have become

CARING FOR NOTING FOWLS
Process Is No More Critical Than Lay
ing Stunt, Provided Hens Are
Given Sufficient Feed.

Some people make a dreadful fuss
about the poor melting hen, while
this melting process is just as nat
ural as it is for a hen to live and
breathe, and no more critical than the
laying stunt, provided the hens are
fed enough to keep up the waste of
the body and at the same time manu-
Field and Farm. The sooner the feath-
ers are grown the sooner the eggs
will come and to hurry them along as
fast as possible the fowls should be
fed literally. Give them all the mash
they will eat, and a good feeding of
grain at night
To many folks it looks like throw
ing away money to practice heavy
feeding while nc eggs are coming in,
but this is one of the secrets Of get
ting winter eggs. The melting sea-
son is the most critical period in the
life of a hen. Growth of new feath-
ers is a heavy strain on vitality. As
the hen Is fed on the average ranch
it requires from two to four months
to recover from the effects of it.
BY giving the necessary materials
with which to make the feathers SO
that a hen will not have to make them
from the tissues of her body, she will
be ready to work al soon as she has
her new plumage ana often before.
Pullets should be handled in the same
way.
