COLUMBUS, N. M, Mar. 10.-Be-
lieving the report that Villa at the
head of 1000 men is returning to
execute his threat to kill all the
Americans here, the inhabitants Of
the town have been thrown into u
frenzy Of excited fear. The memory
of Thursdays murder of IT soldiers
and civilians is still fresh in their
minds. Not even the ordering of
the entire 18th cavalry had much
quoting effect on them.
Villa and his gang have not been
sighted as yet, but are reported to
be eight miles away.

WASHINGTON, ID. G., Mar. To-
tFlash 11:33 a. m.)-American troops
are going into Mexico after Villa.
President Wilson made this an
nonncement this morning following
conference with the cabinet.
The cabinet authorized this move,
The initial expedition will contain
at least 5000 American troops.
The presidents statement said:
IAN adequate force will be sent
at once in pursuit of Villa, with the
single object of capturing him and
putting a stop to his forays. This
can and will be done entirely in a
friendly manner and as an aid to the
constituted authorities in Mexico,
with scrupulous respect for the
sovereignty of that republic"
The president will probably send
message to congress within few
days outlining his reasons for to-
days orders. He took similar ac-
ton the time the fleet occupied Vera
Cruz.

! In this area the rows of low-grow-
ing, quick-maturing, early vegetables
Nere planted so that at proper inter-
walls between them later-maturing
sorts could be dispersed. The early
paintings consisted of rows of radish-
es, early bects, lettuce, carrots, and
few parsnips, parsnips being plac-
ed so that they could have the bene-
f't of the entire growing season,
while between were placed first rows
Of radishes and lettuce and later
bunch beans. The beets, later in the
season, gave way to a few cabbage
plants. An area was devoted to
dozen tomato plants trained to sim
gle stem on stakes about four feet
nigh. They We're planted about is
inches apart in each direction which
gave them ample room for maturity.
1t was necessary. however, that the
site for tomatoes should be as sun
ny MS practicable. In the least sun
ny portion of the ward early and
late peas were planted together with
a row of sweet pears to supply a
few much priced blossoms for the
table.
Before the tomatoes were planted
onion sets occupied the area and were
allowed to remain until large enough
for use or until it was necessary to
tEin them in certain areas to make
space for planting the tomatoes. A
Few parsley plants werep laced in a
convenient corner where they did not
receive too much sunlight but where
tho environment was as cool as pos-
sible and sufficiently moist to keep
the plants growing. In the autumn
it was found wise to plant spinach,
kale, and potato-onion sets in order
that a supply Of green succulents
might be had during the winter and
early spring.

will study the old plan carefully and
rearrange his vegetables SO as not to
grow the same kind the second year
IN the same part of the garden. He
also should be particularly careful to
transfer to other parts of the garden,
or not to attempt to raise at all,
those vegetables which have suffer-

es. If his notes are at all complete,
they will help him to look up sub

The profit from gardening, how
ever, comes not alone from the vege-
tables TINT are produced. The healthy
outdoor recreation and exercise and
the educational value Of a garden in
training children manually, and in in
and industry must not be overlooked
culcatrg in them habits Of order
Fathers and mothers will find that the
preliminary planning Of n garden will
do much 10 arouse the interest Of the
young people and encourage them TO
do their share in culHyating and
| wedding it. This will be particularly
true if the owner hires n Iaborer to
do the first heavy spading and let's
| the family begin It's gardening not
| with heavy. disheartening drudgery
but on a patch ready for the lighter
work of making the seed bed.
Having decided what is to be plant
ed, the indoor gardener draws lines
or symbols on his outlined plan to
indiate the different crops. inserting
the date when each is to be planted
Where a second or third crop is to
follow the same row or occupy the
same ground, this may be written in
red or blue, which indicates that it
| is to be planted when an earlier crop
is over. In laying out the plan the
owner should consider the amount of
each vegetable Necessary for serv-
ing for his family. He also should
bear in mind the habits of the plants
so as to allow space enough between
the rows for their proper growth, for
the interplanting of later crops, and
for easy cultivation. The cultivation
of course, is easiest when the rows
are from one and one-half TO two feet
apart, and this permits the use OF
wheel cultivators Plants which make
high growth and cause heavy shade
naturally should not be located where
they will interfere with sun-loving
small plants. Perennials, such as rhu-
barb and asparagus, which are not
cultivated, should not be grown
among plants which call for tilling
The planning may be extended also
to the planting Of small fruits, such
as currants, raspbeiries and grapes
and even to the location of other fruit
trees.
Plots for
the Little Folks.
Where there are very small child
rem in the family, a separate small
plott should be set aside for their
play gardens. If they have their own
vegetables which they can feel free
to pull up, examine, or treat as they
like, they are less liable to conduct
their Juvenile botanical experiments
in the garden which is being grown
for serious purposes.

Senator Dawes asked Mr. Raymond
if there had not been, prior to the be-
ginning Of the Central Pacific and
also the Union Pacific railroad con-
struction. considerable agitation in
Congress and in many parts OF the
country in favor Of the construction
Of a Pacific railroad
To this question Mr. Raymond re-

tion OF a Pacific railroad which many

soon after we obtained Canifornia
from Mexico" said Mr. Raymond.
"and almost Immediately after the
announcement was made Of the dis
eovery Of gold in California some Of
the leading Statesmen of the Southern
States began warmly to advocate the
construction Of a railroad along the
thirty-ffth parallel Of latitude, with
one terminal on the Gulf Of Mexico
or perhaps at New Orleans. and the
other somewhere on the coast Of Low
CT California.
"A survey had been made, but the
engineers report dampened enthus-
iasm in this project. He reported that
IL would cost about one hundred and
ten million dollars for the construc-
ton. and that was thought too great
2 sum for the government to burden
itself with. The agitation ceased.
Had this line been built and been IN
operation several years before the
Civil War began, the Southern State
would have been directly united by
rail with the Pacific coast. There
would have been large emigration
from the Southern States in that di-
rection And in all probability the
annual product OF gold would have
flowed into and enriched the Con-
federate treasury. while the bay OF
San Francisco would have sheltered
the infant navy Of the Confederate
States.
Destiny made it otherwise. and the
building Of the Central Pacific and
Union Pacific railroads was sufficient
to maintain the Pacific slope within
