TROOPS IN MEXICO
WILL Be BROUGHT
NEARER THE LINE
Will Not Be Withdrawn But
will Be Stationed Closer
to Border
STATE MILITIA WILL
Be KEPT FOR SOME TIME

Give Full Protection from
Raiders
BY j. P. Yoder,

Omitted Press staff correspondent
Washington, July 4.-The American
punitive expedition sent into Mexico
to capture or kill Villa or to shatter
his bands is being withdrawn for police
auty close to the border. This was the
consensus of opinion here today. Gen
eral Pershing continues concentrating
his forces, shortening his line and APP
preaching closer to the international
boundary.
No one here believed the punitive ex.
pedition will be taken entirely out of
Mexico. This zone of operation is ex.
pected to extend along the northern
boundary of the republic and for o
distance satisfactory to both the de
faeto government and the United
States.
New distribution of the border patrol
announced by the war department yes.
terday indicates President Wilson has
decided on program Of thorough pro.
lection against further raids by scat
tered bands which have not yet been
dispersed. At the same time dis,
patches to the border and the mainten-
ance there OF large militia forces will
place the country IN position Tor Of
fensive movements should the Mexican
trouble become unmanageable through
diplomatic channels.
1t now seems inevitable that the diff,
ferent state militia organizations will
be kept on the border for several
months at least.
As for Villa himself, certain army
officers today expressed their personal
opinion that the famous bandit leader
is dead.
No comment was Forthcoming at the
war or state departments early today
as to General Pershing's movements or
intentions. Secretary Baker was at his
office before O'Clock, but remained
only a short time. Other offices in
his department were vacant as result
of the holiday,

made ending at the reviewing stand
to the north of the main entrance.
Red, white and blue bunting and
flags garnished the stand wnere the
patriotic events incident to proper

held. As the queen and her maids en-
tered the stand the band played a
flourish.

"The easiest way" he said, "and tho
way we generally strive FOR right is

SURPLUS OF WOMEN

There are said to be 100000 more
women and girls in Great Britain than
there are men-and German guns are
still increasing the disparity. This
put it as you willis bound to set
some difficult social problems when
the war is over. In those parts of the
continent where primitive conditions
prevail or where patriotism extends
into daily life, there will be a tacitly
licensed polygamy. Mrs. Grundy
doubtless will prove too powerful to
admit Of such a state of affairs in
Britain-though the percentage of IL
legitimate births in that island is sure
to increase other solutions must
be sought, says Chicago Journal. The
most promising of these is assisted
emigration of women to British col
onies, where males are In a heavy ma.
jOrity. One undoubted good which will
result from the present butchery is an
improvement in the status Of the child
born out of wedlock. With the ma
tions hungry for children to grow up
as soldiers and producers in place Of
those lost in the trenches, the old in.
justice of Furnishing youngsters for
the faults of their parents has be-
come unpopular.

Bright farmers hold no longer to the
theory that a cow is a COW. On the
contrary, they stick to the principle
that good COW is an excellent invest
ment and a poor COW is a waste, says
Philadelphia Ledger. That sale at
Coopersburg of 126 animals for $780,
600 proves that the bright farmers
have their pocketbooks in hand ready
to pay for pure blood. The man who
gave $1,000 for COW knows that she
is cheaper than another cow which
would cost him $50. A COW is a living
machine which converts hay, grain
and fodder into milk, and the greater
her capacity to perform this process
of conversion the better COW she is.
One of the best things our agricultural
schools have taught is knowledge of
the superiority Of first rate stock of
every kind over inferior stock. 1t has
come to a point where a knowing
farmer can measure the quality of
other farmers easily by the COWS he
keeps.
