The farm business should pay for the
capital the same as is expected in any
other business enterprise. Therefore,
interest on the farm capital is an eX-

He is really living off the interest of

Interest is the joker in figuring farm

Battle Lasts All Dav

Brownsville, Tex, Sept. 4.-With at
least 10 known Mexicans dead and
probably as many more bodies lying
dead in the brush, the battle between
Mexicans and 80 United States caval.

rangers and armed citizens, ended at 4
o'clock this afternoon. One American
trooper was wounded.
AT 4 o'clock the Mexicans with
drew from the south bank of the Rio
Grande and hid in the brush. The
battle was waged practically the en-.
tire day, the two forces firing at each
other across the Rio Grande at a point
four miles west of Old Hiedalgo, Tex.
The participants were stretched out
in the brush on a battle line two
miles long. The injured American was

He reported that 10 dead Mexicans
could be seen from the Texas side
and that probably as many more had
been killed in the brush by shots
fired from the Texas side.
The number of Mexicans engaged
was placed at 40. When the fight
ended, the Americans were in pos

Mexico and Texas in the vicinity of
Mission. The Mexicans made no at-
tempt to cross the river.
The battle started early today when

authorities were taking all precaution
to guard against any effort on the part
of the Mexicans to organize on this
size or to prepare an organized in
vaslon from the Mexican side. The
Mexican element here was quiet to-
night.
The massing of Mexicans on the
river bank at the scene of today's
battle was reported here tonight. AL.
though it was not known whether
there were Carranza soldiers among
the arrivals, all available cavalry was
ordered from the mission to the river

NEvERs' FOR CHILDREN

MEYERS" FOR CHILDREN
Never cross the tracks by night or by
day,
Without stopping to listen and look
each way.
Never walk along the railroad ties
You can't always trust your ears
and eyes.
Never hop freight, for nothing quite
heals
The wounds received under grinding
wheels.
| Never, on hot sunny day,
Sit beneath box car to rest or play.
Never crawl under car OF freight,
When the crossings blocked-play
safe and wait.
Never board, or alight from, train
that is moving,
Accidents daily it's dangers are
proving.
Never play games round the tracks at
the station,
There are much safer places to seek
recreation.
| Never leave on the rail any spikes or
bars,
Because, in this way, you may
wreck the cars.
Never railroad bridge should you
cross,
A train may come and result in your
loss.
Never pick up coal round the railroad
yard,
A train may catch you off your
guard.

CROP ESTIMATES OF IN
TEREST TO NORTH DAKOTA

| Grand Forks, Sept. 1.-North Dako-
ia is always vitality interested in crop
yields. Having this in mind the
Times-Record has secured the follow
| ing estimates from a North Dakota
| representative of the Chamber of
Commerce of the United States sta
toned at Grand Forks. These esti-
mates are for the entire country, they
are carefully compiled and are as
| nearly accurate as is possible at this
| time.
Stimulated by the abnormal demand
of the warning nations of Europe. the
wheat acreage this season in this
country Increased beyond any prev
lous planting. 1t was approximately
12h per cent greater in winter wheat
and 10 per cent in spring wheat than
in 1914. The continued wet weather
delayed growth, harvesting and thresh-
ing. Much damage was done to the
| standing grain in the lowlands. Manv
fields were washed away entirely by
the floods, and subsequent damage &C.
crued in shocks because of sprouting
and too much moisture. These accum-
ulated results have made necessary
somewhat reduced estimate of both
spring and winter wheat, and based
on the reports under consideration, the
estimated probable yield will be 94S,-
100000 bushels.
In many sections, the quality has
also been lowered by constant rains.
Shipment to market is slow because
of delayed threshing and as a whole
the movement of winter wheat is
from two to three weeks behind last
year.
The most remarkable development
has been the unprecedented acreage
planted in the southern states as
compared with any previous exper-
fence in the south. The fifteen south
ern states will probably raise this year
about Is per cent of the total wheat
crop as compared with previous aver
ages of II per cent.
In northern sections, especially in
Minnesota, Wisconsin, the two Dako-
tas, northern Nebraska and the PENN
sula of Michigan, the growth of corn
has been much retarded by continued
cool wet weather. The outlook there
fore in the sections mentioned are not
encouraging. The plant, however, in
such contingency can be most profit.
ably used in silos. The present est.
mate is for crop of approximately
1885, bushels, or about 10 per
cent greater than last year.
Oats are particularly susceptible to
damage by wet weather, especially in
the way Of lodging. Despite this, the
outlook now is for a yield of about
1,4OO,0O0,OOO bushels closely rivalling
the record breaking production of
1912.
