which he said anyone having ideas
against his Mexican policy was wrong.
"If President Wilson waits to hear
from his rotten representatives in that
country to tell him Of actual condi-
tions he will never know of them. But
these things have been told before,
and there is no reason why he doesn't
know the full facts of the case,' de-
clared Mr.. Mcdonald.
Over three hundred and fifty Amer
ican refugees from Vera Cruz, Mex
leo, represents the number which
have passed through. Jacksonville on
their way to points in the east, west
and north. Nearly as many left Tam
pa yesterday on the transport for the
northern points, via New Orleans.
According to r. E. Camp, travelling
passenger agent of the Seaboard Air
Line railway, who was one of several
railway representatives soliciting bus
mess from the refugees, the business
was divided equally between the vari-
Gus railways represented here, and
that it was through the efforts of the
men on the ground that the large
number was diverted in this direction.
INTERVENTION THE SOLUTION
Mr.. Camp states that he had inter
viewed large number of the Ameri-
cans on the status of affairs in Mex
leo, and especially upon the feeling
Of the Americans in regard to the poll
cies of the United States in handling
the Mexican trouble. In nearly every
instance, Mr.. Camp states that the
Americans in Mexico believe United
States Intervention is the only solu-
tion of the problem and that Ameri-
can lives will never be safe in Mexico
until such thing is accomplished.
The Americans state that they are
regarded in Mexico as negro is held
in the South and in many instances
pushed off the sidewalks while passing
down the streets. Insults are frequent
and when such insult is resented the
American is placed in a dungeon for
a period of 48 hours as punishment.
AMERICANS MURDERED BY THE
HUNDRED
The remark was also made to Mr..
Camp by one of the refugees that ac-
cording to his diary three hundred and
seventy-seven Americans lives have
paid the toll thus far and that one
life day, as in the past, will con-
tinue to be forfeited until definite ac-
tion is taken by the United States to
corretc the conditions. He stated that
the conditions in every city were hor-
rible and never in the history of a
country were the subjects of another
forced to accept such treatment with
out immediate reparation.

RESULTS Of THE
STATE PAROLE LAW
Agent E. A. Whythe Publishes a
List of Names After an
Investigation.

Chicago. May 5.-iResnlts OF the OPP

Edward II. Whyte, OF San Francisco,
state parole agent, and given out for
publication today. He says that if

Of the names of the many parOled
men who have resumed their places

be amazed at the fine showing and
proud of the result.
Among the findings of the investi-
cation made by Mr.. Whyte are the
following:
A total of $685. prisoners in Cali
fornia paroled prior to January LIST Of
this year n916). only 1873. or 31-2
per cent, violated their paroles by the
commission OF new crimes. Other
violations, bring the percentage Of
violations up to 81 per cent, consisted

liquors, leave place of employment
without permission, and the like.

abiding and industrially productive
citizenship, probably the most import.
ant result of the California parole law
has been the reduction OF confirmed
criminals in state prisons. Statistics
covering the three decades from 1880
to 1910 show the following results:
In 1880 the percentage of confirmed
criminals in California state prisons
was 1913 and the percentage Of first
termers was i7.S.
In 1900 the percentage OF confirmed
criminals had grown to EST while the
percentage of first termers was reduc-
ed to TAB.
In 1910 the percentage OF confirmed
criminals fell 1871. while the percent
age of first termers reached Sl.9.
The gradual decrease Of confirmed
criminal percentage still Is going on
at California prisons.
So far as prison management enters
into this remarkable result. Mr..

CORN CROP SHOULD
ALL Be ROTATED
Selection of Corn Seed Was a
Religious Duty With the
.... Indians.

Corn is pre-eminently rotation
crop. 1t fits into any rotation and
adds to the rotation. 1t produces more
of their grain or forage than any
other crop that can be brought into
the rotation and it puts the land in
shape to produce more of the other
crops. 1t is safe to say that no crop
adds so much to the rotation as corn
with the exception Of the legumes and
it really takes corn to prepare the and
so that the legumes will do the best
The one crop system has passed
from the Atlantic coast to North Da-
kota and it is now time that North
Dakota axes seps to rid the state OF
the ruinous one crop system. Corn
has been one of the crops introduced
to break the back Of the one crop
system in the states from Maine to
North Dakota and the increase in
corn acreage in North Dakota indi-
Gates that the North Dakota farmer
is bringing corn to help solve the farm
crops problem. The weed problem,
the live stock problem, and the pros
perity problem.
Corn can be used to start that ro-
tation.. A crop of corn grown every
fourth year with wheat the other
three will not decrease the yield OF
wheat. 1t has been found at the North
Dakota Experiment station that five
bushels more Of wheat could be
grown in the three wheat crops fol-
lowing corn than in four wheat crops
without the corn In other words, the
corn crop and five bushels OF wheat
are thrown in for good measure. 1t
lis not often one gets something for
nothing, but the corn crop in North
Dakota comes mighty near dong that
very thing.
The Indians looked upon corn as a
gift of the gods With them the plant
ing and care of the corn and the Sc
lection of the seed was religious
duty. Everything else was secondary
when the corn needed attention. The

n. D. POTATOES
ARE EXCELLENT
Potato Growers in SoutL Have
.' to Send North for Seed
Potatoes.

Potato growers in the southern part
Of the United States have to send
north for seed potatoes. H. o.
Werner, horticulturist Of the North
Dakota experiment station has the fol.
lowing to say regarding North Dako'
ia grown potatoes for seed.
The cool atmosphere and short
growing season produce a vigorous,
healthy growth in potatoes grown in
North Dakota. This produces pota-
toes that have great deal of vi
tally when used for seed purposes.
On account Of this fact seed potatoes
from North Dakota are highly valued
in the more southern states. They
produce an earlier, heavier crop of
potatoes, which are also generally SUI
perior in quality to the potatoes from
seed produced in those regions. This
far, North Dakota seed potatoes have
been comparatively free from serious
diseases. The Red river valley pota-
toes already have a national reputa-
ton for seed purposes, and are sought
by southern and eastern growers and
seedsmen However, there is no rea.
son why the potatoes grown in some
other parts of the state should not
have as good reputation for seed
purposes. Potatoes grown on heavy
soils are generally considered better
for seed purposes han potatoes grown
on sandy soils. Selling good potatoes
for seed purposes and establishing
reputation for such seed is the most
profitable way of dispOsing Of North
Dakota potatoes. Already the value
OF northern seed is recognized as we'll
as the superior value of Red river
valley seed. >'-~'' Dakota potato
growers need therefore only to pro-
duce good potatoes free from disease
and they will find ready market for
then, as the reputation of their seed
is already established and now needs
most of all to be maintained.
The North Dakota potato also pos
sesses qualities for table use so that
it is sought after for this purpose
too. Much 90, be done to make
know nthe quality of North Dakota
potatoes both for seed and for table
use. It the Tri-State Grain Growers
convention a meeting was called for
the purpose of forming a state po-
tato growers association, which will
be completed at the state fair in July.
Such an association can do much to
build up the reputation of the North
Dakota potato and to advertise its
merits.
