FL Paso, Tex, Sept, 23.-Although
Francisco villa is only 20 miles outside
Chihuahua City, according to an official
announcement by Carranza military au'
thorities at Juarez, vigorous pursuit" OF
the bandit and his followers has not been
taken up since Col. Ramos abandoned it.
Gen. Trevino is comforting with his sub

Many refugees, natives and Americans,
who fled from Chihuahua before the
fighting started last Saturday, are anx-
ious to make afiidavits to assure Wash.
ington that the raid was engineered by
Villa and was successful.
Accused OF planning to join Villa, %
natives were taken from a train during

New London, Conn, Sept. 23.-No
formal session of the INSTRUMENTATION
conference was held yesterday, but the
presence OF Alberto PAM, one of thu Mex

reports that a Mexican loan is being dis

The Mexican commissioners have in
sisted all along that financial questions
are entirely secondary to the settlement
of the problem of border patrol. With
the program for border patrol practically
it is believed that the com
mission intends to take up Mexican
financial affairs as its next subject of
discussion.
Gen. Bliss will return to New London
from Washington by Monday. The COM
missioners will confer with him and put
the finishing touches on the border pa
troll plan calling for cooperation by

Soil Preparation.

The first consideration in making
new lawn is a suitable soil This should
be well drained and of good texture and
should be thoroughly prepared. A good
loan will need only enrichment. This
may be brought about best by dressing
of we'll rotted barnyard manure thor
oughly worked in. If manure is not
available 20 pounds of bone meal for
each LOCO square feet may be substitut
ed If the lawn site is OF stiff clay both
sand and humus or decayed vegeta BILE
matter must be worked in if good turf
is to be secured There is little danger
of using too much of either of these ma
terials Light sandy soils should have
clay and humus worked in to increase
their water holding capacity. The hu-
mus may be supplied in the form of ma
nure compost or soil from mushroom
beds at the rate OF one half ton to 900
square feet of area. After the proper
constituents are supplied the lawn soil
should be thoroughly stirred and fined.
This preparation should begin several
weeks before seeding time to allow suf-
fcient time for the ground to settle and
for weed seeds to terminate.

MAKING A NEW LAWN.
September Best Time for Planting in

ment Likewise, the. repairing Of lawns
in this region is much more likely to be

is preferable when climatic conditions
will permit is that youngg rass does not
stool we'll in spring and summer and is
not aggressive enough during these sea
sons to combat weeds. In the northern

conditions do not hold and spring is the
best time for lawn work. At that time
