WORM ARMY LOSSES
To PARASITES HEAVY
From Fifty to Ninety Per Cent of
Caterpillars Dying on Field
of Battle
Sy Associated Press

Washington, July 24.-While ento-
mologists of the Department of Agri-
culture are concerned over unusual
prevalence and activity of army worm,
the Hessian fly and the Tussock moth
in many sections of the country this
summer are causing damage to crops
and trees they say there is no danger
of a recurrence of the army worm pest
next year, for a parasite, much like
the house fly in appearance is causing
the deaths of from fifty to ninety per
cent. of the caterpillars.
The army worm has appeared in
hords in almost the entire eastern Sec
ton of the country The worms
emerge from eggs laid by moths that
apparently swarmed up from the
southwest. They have done great
damage to meadows, eating away the
grass. The Department of Agriculture
has advised farmers where worms
have not yet attacked a field to plow
furrows in front of them. throwing the
furrow in the direction the worms are
travelling. The worms will fall into
the furrow and when it is full, may be
killed by dragging a log back and forth
or by pouring kerosene in holes pre-
viously dug at the bottom of the fur
row to catch the worms. dough
made of paris green, wheat bran, juice
of oranges and molasses is recon-
where worms already are in
the field.

Advices From Leaders
Indicate That Peace
Is Near in Mexico

Washington, D. c., July 24.-Direct
advices to the United States to-day
from Provisional President Carbajal,
General Carranza, General Villa and
Emilio Zapata, the four chief elements
in the Mexican problem, renewed the
hopes of officials here for peace.
Carbajal, through the Brazilian min
lister in Mexico City. officially declared
that he was willing to transfer the
executive power to Carranza and had
sent a delegate, Reginald Cepeda, to
arrange with the Constitutionalist
chief
Carbajal reiterated that he merely
wanted an amnesty for political of
tenders and guarantees for the safety
of property of people had had sup
ported Huerta.
Carranza, through the American
consul accompanying him, manifested
his readiness to be lenient with the
foes of the Constitutionalists and give
the desired guarantees.
Villa in message in most courteous
terms spoke of his desire to see peace
established on basis of justice and
liberty and gave assurances that he
would do his utmost to restore normal
conditions

FARMERS CAN CHOOSE
THEIR NEIGHBORS

Under the title, Choosing Your
Neighbors," the following appears in
the current issue of Farm and Fire
side:
"a farmer is about the only man
who can keep at a distance from un-
congenial neighbors if he chooses. On
general business principles it is bad
policy to sell the center or even a
large corner out of a farm for any
purpose or for any figure very much
less than the total value of the farm.
If the parties who wish the land seem
desirable, give them a long lease that
does not grant the privilege of sub
letting. The smaller the piece of land
to be divided the more rigidly the fore
going remarks apply. Owners of large
tracts on the other hand, can advan-
tageously sell off slices to industrious
farmers to mutual advantage. But no
neighbors at all are better than un-
desirable ones"

naturally. Mrs. Rhita Childe DOrr
and Mrs. Harvey w. Wiley questioned
him on his attitude with respect to
other national issues and after an
swering several of their queries, the
president declared, ct cannot permit

That put stop to the questioning
and the delegation slowly filed out Of
the While House, giving expression to
disappointment and regret.
The president told the women that
his passion is for local self govern

should decide certain things for itself.
He classed the right of suffrage
among these things. He told the wom-

own ideas were different.

Mrs. A. v. Beekin, of Bloomfield. ".
J.. presented a telegram from the.
Women's Political Union of New Jer-
sey. THE women of your home state
fee' confident you will not fail Them,
she said to the president. Mrs. Wiley
spoke briefly and introduced Mrs. Dorr.
who made the principal plea of the
suffragists. She referred to the presi
dents declaration, when the suffra gists
visited him before, that he was deter
mired never to initiate any important
legislation until the Democratic party
hau given its approval. Since our last
visit to the White House, said she.
You have receded from that position.
You have initiated and carried through
congress an extremely important piece
of legislation, without waiting for party
instructions. In fact, you carried 1t
through in the face of positive instruc-
tons to the contrary written in the
platform on which you were elected.
Your justification rested on the fact
that a certain situation had changed.
and a changed situation called for a
changed policy.
I'VE submit that the situation in re-
gard to women suffrage has changed
absolutely since the Baltimore plat
form was written After reviewing
the growth of suffrage in the states
and pending legislation in congress 10
enfranchise women, Mrs. Dorr said.
IAN this encourages us to feel that
we have the right come to you AMI ask
you to recognize the unQuestioned fact
that woman suffrage Is inevitable. and
to do what you can to insure women
