SENSATION CAUSED
 BY HUERTA ARREST

The developments at Fl Paso caused
 sensation in Mexican quarters here,
 both the Carranza and Villa agencies Issuing statements rejoicing that the
 United States had checked an effort on the part of the so-called reactionary
 interests to regain control of Mexican, affairs. Both agencies had repeated ly called to the attention of the state
 department the movements of the Huer- ta group, although today's action was said at the state department to be entirely on the initiative of the de rartment of justice.
 While officials were reticent as to the probable development of the case against General Huerta, 1t was indi-
 cated that the United States would re-
 tain in its custody for a time at least the man whose overthrow of Madero and Suarez and dictatorship in Mexico
 Was declared by President Wilson to be responsible for the resulting tur- tulence in the southern republic When General Huerta returned from Spain the American government made no ef- fort to deport him, accepting his pledge that he did not intend to vio- late the laws of neutrality
 Government agents watched his
 movements however, noting that for rier federal generals frequently were in conference with him. They investi- gated reports that financial support had been obtained for new revolu- tionary movement, but it was not un- ti, the moment of apparent setting on foot an expedition that 1t was regard ed as timely to interpose the arm of
 the American government
 Officials here do not understand that the movement of the Huerta group was
 supported by all of the various
 branches of the so-called conservative
 party who are living in exile In the
 United States. Two other separate and
 distinct groups of Mexicans in this
 country. the one headed by Gen. Felix
 Diaz and assisted, 1t is said. by Gen
 erals MOndragon and Blanauet. for
 mer adherents of Huerta. and another
 organization of which Eduardo Itur-
 bide Is spokesman. have been reported
 ready to take a hand in the situation.
 So far as is known, however. they
 have revealed no connection with any
 proposed military expeditions, though
 sll three groups however. are said to
 be alike in their purpose to oppose
 Generals Carranza, Villa and Zapata.

EVIDENCE AGAINST
 HUERTA WITHHELD

Just what the evidence against Gen eral Huerta and other former federal generals Is was not disclosed here. The Villa agency had dispatches from Fl Paso charging that General Huerta was guilty of recruiting several hun dred Mexicans and of purchasing sup res for thei equipment. While the rlore preparation of plans for the be- einning of a revolution in a foreign country have not been held as them eeives a violation of neutrality overt acts in consummation of such plans have formed the basis for indictments in the past.

PURE-BRED SIRES ARE BEST
Selection Of Herd Bull Is Of Greatest
lmportance-Avold Contagious
Abortion and Tuberculosis.

Farmers everywhere are beginning
to appreciate the need for pure-bred
sires. In dairying the selection of
the herd bull is Of the greatest impor-
tance because he Is at least half the
herd from the breeding point of view.
His influence on the characteristics Of
every calf born In the herd is as great
as that Of the dam of the calf. If he
is a pure-bred animal used on grade
cows, his influence will be more than
half because his transmitting powers
in breed characteristics will be
stronger.
No bull whose dam and paternal
grand-dam were not capable of pro-
ducing 300 pounds Of butterfat In 365
days should be used for breeding pur-
poses II good results are expected. It
would be much better II this premium
were set at $50. The prudent dairy
man will select q calf from a COW
which produced 400 pounds or more
Of butterfat.
II the use Of bulls from dams and
paternal grand-dams producing less
than 800 pounds of fat were prohibit
ed by state law 1t would be a long
step In advance. Much damage has
been done by unscrupulous and ignor-
ant breeders, who have sold, for
breeding purposes and at low prices,
pure-bred male calves from cows

MORE LANDS
MAY ACCRUE To
STATE SCHOOLS
AN EARLY DECISION EXPECTED
BY SECRETARY OF THE IN
TERROR ON A CLAIM UNDER ACT
PASSED IN 1862.

Oklahoma City, Okla Oct. 14.-The
schools of Oklahoma may be enriched
to the extent of ten thousand acres of
land or its equivalent in government
scrip within a few months, upon the
decision of the secretary of the in
terror. The supplemental brief in the
action to recover this land for the
state has been prepared by Judge L. G..
Spilman and is now in the hands of
the printers. Judge Spilman will go to
Washington in short time to present
and argue the case for final decision.
The case is considered of vast i'm
portance, especially to the agricultural
schools of the state. The action was
originally brought for the purpose of
taking advantage on the part of the
state Of the Morrill, act, passed by con-
gress in 1862, giving each state $4,000
acres of land within its borders for
each senator or representative in con-
gress. That act was subsequently
in 1866 to apply to territories
and was later amended in 1888.
The state legislature If 1907-S, as
provided by law. accepted the benefits
of the grant and the attorney gener-
ais office endeavored to segregate all
the lands in the state that were liable !
at that time under the terms of the |
grant. The land offices in the state
resisted and an appeal was taken to
the commissioner of the general land |
office. He sustained the position TAX
en- by the land offices of the state and .
an appeal was taken to the secretary
Of the interior. The case is now pend
