Carranza Approves Plans
Of Scott And Obregon
The Wov Nov Cleared for More Thorough Cooperation
in War Against Bandits-hore Extensive Use OF
Railroads

Washington, Nay 6.--Gen. Carran-
za's approval Of the Scott-Obregon
agreement, announced to clear the
way for more thorough cooperation
between the American and Mexican
troops in the campaign against Villa.
1t already has been approved by
President Wilson.
Details of the agreement never
have been made public, but it is un-
derstood to provide for more extern
siye use of the railroads by the Amer
ican forces and to establish a definite
understanding on many questions
which officials here and in Mexico City
have feared might lead to clashes be-
tween the Americans and the Carran-
"a soldiers. Reports that definite
date had been set for withdrawal Of
Gen. Pershing's expedition have been
officially denied.
No official notification of Gen. Car
ranza's decision had reached Wash
lngton late tonight and officials were
in ignorance as to the minor points
of the plan On which the first chief
was reported as reserving decision.
No real obstacles to an agreement is
believed to have been interposed.
ITO Resume Negotiations.
Negotiations for a formal protocol
covering the subject of the expedition
are expected to be resumed here af-
ter the Scott-Obregon agreement has
been ratified. While the latter deals
with the military features, it is
thought necessary to work out diplo-
matte features through regular diplo-
matte channels. Gen Carranza's note
of April u, suggesting that discus
sion of the withdrawal of the Ameri-
can forces be taken up suspended ne
gotiations then in progress for pro-
toeol.
Administration officials were elated
at the success of Major Howse and
his men in surprising Villa band,
Furnishing it severely and coming OH
without aay casualties. 1t is expected
to lend to the prestige of the Ameri-
can troops among the Mexicans.
Report On Battle.
Gen. Pershing's report forwarded
by Gen. Funston to the war depart
ment today, says the latest attack on
the Villa bandits was made by his
small force after night march OF
thirty-six miles. The text of Gen.
Pershing's report, dated at San An
tonic, in Mexico, was as follows
!"A band of 14O Villa bandits, which
attacked our garrison yesterday at
Ojo-Azuls, remained there in camp

government for . number of years.
recently returned from q cruise Of
more than 1000 miles through the
Arctic archipelago. during which he
placed many new islands, bays and
promontories on the map. During his
exploration work he has charted over
100000 square miles of islands in the
far North, and has discovered many
records of Arctic expeditions. He
has been commissioned to establish q
force Of the mounted police In Hudson

IA degrees west of 60 degrees west
and all the adjacent islands as far as

Bernier's great ambition is to journey
to the North pole, an undertaking
which he believes he can accomplish
with no great difficulty when the op

SOME SIMPLE POTATO RULES
Prepare Roomy Seeded So a. to
Give Plenty Of Room for Develop
ment Of the Tubers.

Here are some simple rules for get
ting the most from your potato crop.
Plant potatoes only about three inches
deep II the land is heavy or rains are
frequent. In average soils plant four
inches deep; in semiarid regions five
inches, or even more. Prepare q roomy
seeded 80 as to give plenty of room
for the tubers to develop. Never ap-
ply stable manure to land on which
potatoes are to be planted within a
year. Fresh manure seems to promote
potato disease.
Opinions differ as to the best ways
Of seeding. Single eyes will usually
return the largest yield of q given
amount of seed potatoes used, but
the best practical way Is to cut q me-
diminished potato into about three
pieces, each of which has two or three
good eyes. Plant one piece in each
hill. DO not use large potatoes for
seed, as too large q proportion Of the
crop will be unmarketable.

SANITATION OF IMPORTANCE
More Essential Than Rotation From
Standpoint Of Disease Control
Burn All Rubbish.

While It may not be possible In some
cases to rotate garden crops owing to
a lack of available ground. sanitation
can always be practiced. and this from
the standpoint of disease control is
probably more important than rota-
ton.
Practically all the diseases of gar
den plants live over from one season
to the next on living or dead portions
Of the host plant.
These can be controlled only by the
burning of all dead and waste plants.
II this plant is followed systematic
ally each year trouble with plant dis
ease will be minimized.
