PLAN TO FIX UP
ARRoW-WooD LAKE

Darlington, Aug. 16.-Nearly Is
people from Darlington we're at Ar
rowwood lake Sunday, most Of them
having taken along basket dinners.
The trip is made in about an hour by
auto and the cool shade of the many
trees makes is an admirable place to
spend few hours on a heated day.
Among those who were at the lake.
talk was encouraging toward improve
ing the grounds, either at the north or
south ends. It is figured that a hum
dred or so dollars would do much in
the way of trimming trees, moving
weeds and planting grass seed. With
in a few years Arrowwood lake is des-
tined to be a very popular summer
place. II the surroundings were
somewhat improved several from Car
rington would erect summer cottages
and keep their families at the lake
during the hot months.

Refers Them to Carranza

Ell Paso, Texas, Aug. 16.-The Car
rama consulate here today announced
the receipt of the copy of the reply Of
Gen. P. E. Gales, the Carranza com.
mander in Sonora to the Pan-American
appeal for peace conference for Mex
lean leaders. In effect it refers the
state department and the Latin-Amer-
lean diplomates to Carranza.
Washington, Aug. 16.-Assurances
that General Carranza will not OBJ
struct the delivery of the Pan-Ameri-
can appeal to Mexico, reached the
state department in message from c..
B. Parker of the American embassy
staff in Mexico City saying that Gen
eral Pablo Gonzales, Carranza's COM
mander there had promised safe con-
duct to the messengers who are to
carry the appeal to General Zapata
and Others"
Parker also reported restitution
among Americans in the capital and
said that 120 had been aided by the
American embassy attaches and had
asked to be sent to the United States.
A message from Consul Silliman at
Vera Cruz reported that bishop of
Vera Cruz who had been imprisoned
by Carranza authorities for some time
has been released. Advices from Mon
terey report that villa forces are near
ing that city.
No replies to the Pan-American ap-
peal have been received today. State
department officials are undecided
whether to make them public when re-
ceived, before another conference with
the Latin American diplomats is held.
Under the language of the appeal,
Mexican leaders may invite some Of
the Latin Americans to arrange a
proposed peace conference, and ignore
the offer of the United States. Officials
say that only those invited will partic-
ipate in the arrangements.

PROSPECTS GOOD
IN SL0PECOUNTRY

Commissioner of Agriculture and
Labor R. F. Flint, is in receipt Of tie
following communication from e. A.
Wilson, agricultural agent Of the
Northern Pacific railway, whose field
of activity requires him to visit num-
erous points on the main and branch
lines of that road throughout western
North Dakota. He says:
II have just returned from a trip
over much of the slope country west
of the river. The grain crops are won
derful, and / feel safe in stating that
this district will produce almost
double the crop Of any previous year.
saw wheat that should yield 40 BUSH
els per acre and oats that should
yield close to 100 bushels.
"The corn is almost month later
then in 1914, but it has made wonder
full progress during the past week, and
five weeks Of warm weather free from
frost should mature most of the crop.
Some farmers have neglected their
corn and allowed the weeds to grow,
which is much to be regretted. This
has been an ideal season for the
sprouting of weed seed, and the farm
er who has kept his corn clean, has
cleaned that land of weeds. He has
also stored up an abundance of mois-
ture, and his clean corn land will pro-
duce good crop of wheat next year
no matter how dry the season may be.
1t will be time well spent for the farm
ers who have neglected their corn to
clean out the weeds even now and
give the crop shallow cultivation.
The corn, crop of the country will be
short and the price high, and especial
ly so for good seed corn. The farmer
who natures good crop of seed corn
this year can expect big prices"

AM ERlCAs MAKE APPEAL
TO FACTIONS OF MEXICO
Continued from Page ~

to save their Wonderland from an
abyss-no one can doubt, we repeat
that the patriotism of the men VINO
lead or aid in any way the bloody
strife will not remain unmoved; no
one can doubt that each and every
one of them, measuring in his own con-
science his share in the responsible
tiles of past misfortune and looking
forward to his share in the glory of
the pacification and reconciliation Of
the country, will respond, nobly and
resolutely, to this friendly appeal and
give their best efforts to opening the
way to some saving action.
We belive that if the men directing
the armed movements In Mexico ~
whether political or military chiefs
should agree to meet, either in per-
son or by delegates, far from the
sound of cannon and with no other
inspiration save the thought of their
afflicted land, there to exchange ideas
and to determine the fate of the coun-
try-from such action would undoubt-
eddy result the strong and unyielding
agreement requisite to the creation
of provisional government, which
should adopt the first steps necessary
to the constitutional reconstruction of
the country-and to issue the first and
most essential of them all, the imme-
date call to general elections.
An adequate place within the Mex
lean frontiers, which for the purpose
might be neutralized, should serve as
the seat of the conference, and in
order to bring about conference of
this nature the signers, or any of
them, will willingly, upon invitation,
act as intermediates to arrange the
time, place and other details of such
conference, if this action can in any
way aid the Mexican people.
The signers expect reply to this
within a reasonable
time and consider that such a time
would be ten days after the communi-
cation is delivered, subject to proro-
cation for cause.
