]. s. Soldiers
Are On Way To
Meet Bandits
Five Troops Of Cavalry Are Ordered
to Point on the Rio Grande
In Texas

Brownsville, Texas, Sept. 10
Five troops of United States cavalry
have been ordered to a point ten
miles below here on the Rio Grande
following a telephone message late
tonight to Fort Brown, which said
that large bands of Mexicans were
crossing into Texas. Many of them
came across the river in boats, while
others swan across on their horses.
A United States mail carrier was
attacked late this afternoon by a
band OF twenty Mexicans while deliv.
ering mail between Edinburgh and
Delfina. fifty miles northwest of
here.
One bullet went through his hat
and another struck him in the neck.
Although seriously wounded, he made
his escape by jumping into the heavy
mosquito bushes along the roadside.
Feeling Is high here as a. result Of
the cowardly attack on ten American
troopers by band of more than for.
ty Mexicans early this morning.
One of the troopers was killed, an
other will die as the result of his
wounds and two more are suffering
from flesh wounds.
Scour Country
Both United States troops and Tex
as rangers are securing the country
for trace of the Mexicans, but up to
late hour tonight had met with no
success. Several Mexicans living near
the scene Of the attack have been ia.
ken into custody pending an investi-
cation.

for that reason II adapts itself read
lily to new conditions, responds quick
ly to good treatment and gives better
returns for the efforts put into It
than any other crop that grows.
upon the great fundamental law
that like produces like, rests all hu.
man progress. That poor seed also
means a poor crop, no one will ques.
ton; but 1t is not so fully recogniz.
ed that unless great pains be taken
to plant only the best seed, the crop
will gradually deteriorate, Or run out,
as we often say.
Corn has been taught, talked,
preached, printed, painted, demon
strated and advertised in every agri-
cultural country of the world. Thou
sands are teaching it today. Hun.
dreds of corn demonstration trains
have penetrated every section of the
country in the past fifteen years
There are corn demonstration farms
tNSis WhSit' lHOuoCuuS VI Cblu
clubs have been organized, and are
now at work. There are corn shows,
corn picnics, corn growing contests,
and corn schools; but still, with all
the work done by our educational in.
stitutions, bankers, manufacturers
and farmers, for the Improvement of
corn, the average per acre yield In
the United States is less than TWEEN.
ty-six bushels-not half a crop.
Poor seed is the greatest cause of
the poor yield OF corn. Just one small
eight ounce ear of corn added to each
hill will raise the average of the Uni
ted States to fifty.two bushels per
acre, double the yield and value Of
the crop and add about $1.700,000,000
to its total value.
THE most important needs for a
greater yield and better quality of
the corn grown are:
First. Better care of the seed and
more careful testing before planting.
Second. The institution OF cam
paigns of education for the home con-
sumption Of home grown corn, to-
gether with improved methods of
cultivation and the organization OF
boys corn clubs, etc. Utah Farmer
