WILLEMSTAD. Curacao, June
27-The Caracas government was
reported here today to be send
ing a strong force of troops into
Northwestern Venezuela to at
tempt to put down the revolution
which is steadily gaining ground
in the states of Falcon, Lara and
Los Andes. 1t was the general
belief here that the delay has
been too long, however, and that
the present regime is in imminent
danger.
The situation is very similar to
the one in Mexico, the peasantry
having risen primarily against the
great land owners.

WILL START CAMPAIGN
AMONG SCHOOLS

State superintendent Of Public In
struction Wilson is making early
preparation for a second seed testin3
campaign among the school children
of the state. The seed testing done
in the schools last year was estimated
to have resulted in the saving OF
many thousands of dollars that would
have been lost by the use Of poor
seed
The campaign this year will be i'm
augurated in January Suaerintend-
ont Wilson has sent the following
letter to all county superintendents
in the state as the first move in the
campaign.
Tear County superintendent:
Last spring we attempted to con-
duct a seed testing campaign in order
to en- courage and interest the pupils
and the farmers in supplying them
selves with a better quality of seed
ior the farms. A large number Of the
county superintendents took an active
interest in this campaign and many
of them have reported to rs very en-
ocuragingly. Some took no interest
and, therefore had no report to make.
1--WE shalP conduct similar cam
paign the coming spring, beginning IN
January, but we do not desire to go
to the expense of furnishing the sup
Plies to counties where there is no
interest or where it is thought un-
profitable. The purpose Of this let
ter is to ascertain from YOU whether
or not you viii be interested i'll pro-
noting this proposition Of testing
seeds If so, indicate by your reply
not later than January 10. If the
work in your county is such that you
