A Military Version

DOUGLAS, March 10.-Military au- thorities here who investigated the raid on American ranches south of Osborn Junction, Arizona, tonight, stated that "A command of CarranZa soldiers, who had been drinking, roped cattle and horses belonging to American rancherS."
 When they were unable to drag the livestock across the boundary they shot the animals, the report stated. No
 MeXicanS crossed the border it was said
 The military version of the affair follows:
 "A command of Carranza soldiers, who had been drinking heavily were encamped for the night near Osborn, while marching from Naco Sonora. to Agua Prieta, Sonora. They amused themselves by roping cattle and horses belonging to the American ranchers, whose property extended both sides of the international boundary. Several horses and cattle ranging in Arizona, were roped and dragged across the border Other livestock which was roped and which the soldiers were unable to get across the border was shot on Arizona soil. The MeXi- cans did not cross the line themselves. Three ranchers named Schlout, Bohmfaulk and Collins, were said to have been fired upon and had narrow escapes, but none was injured" Passengers arriving here tonight on an Fl Paso and Southwestern train stated that American soldiers patrol ling the border near Osborn Junction told them that between 60 and 70 Mex lcahs raided the BOhmfaulk ranch and had killed a man and four horses.

 Some apprehension of the problem confronting General Funston may be gathered from information in posses sion of war and state department off cials as to conditions across the border General Funston telegraphed a con- servative estimate of Villas forces to- day at 5000 men. Other reports indi- cate he has 1000. Villa is understood, however, to be short of arms and am- intuition which may prove an inn portant factor in the struggle to come
 Whether Villa will concentrate his followers or continue to evade pursuit in scattered bands can only be guessed. Department officials realized, however that the field ot operations may include territory approximately 400 miles long and as many wide
 In any of these 160000 equare miles Villa might operate with a certain knowledge of every trail and water hole.

ana near the tayous suitable for grow.
ing sugar cane. corn and cotton could
be purchased for $3.50 an acre. and
the prairie lands back from the Dayous
could be bought for 81 an acre With
almost the first crop under irrigation.
however. the values showed marked
rise and have continued 10 increase
In the tirst five years the value Of the
best rice lands rose TO $40 al acre. and
soon after that 1t rose 10 $50 and even
$50 an acre
The first people to plant rice In south
ern Louisiana. according to the Unit-
ed States geological survey. were the
Acadians. who. after their expulsion
from Nova Scotia by the English in
l75J. settled in considerable numbers
In Louisiana. Their cultivation of rice
almost primitive in its methods. was
confined to the lowlands along the
bayous. the prairies affording pastur
age for the Acadians herds of cattle
Few Of the l0w!and areas admitted OF
satisfactory drainage and they were
too small for profitable cultivation
The crops frequently failed In years of
deficient rainfall Attempts were made
to create additional water supplies by
building levees across low says or
c0ulees nj points higher than the cul-
tiyated areas. but generally either the
rainfall proved de.cient or the reser-
voirs were too sinaii
Little adyunre was made over the
Acadlan nie;eods Until recent years.
Experiments IN unusually wet years
had shown that the soils of the prairies
were adapted to the growth Of rice If
sufficient water was at hand This led
to the trial of pumps as means Of
raising wsger frum tie bayous to the
rice fields So s.ccessful was the test
that pumps were at once installed at
many points, and in a few years tens
Of thousands Of acres Of previously al
most useless land, lying ten to seventy
feet above the bayous, were put under
cultivation. The first large pump was
installed In 1894 on the Bayou Plaque
mine. In Acadia parish. near Crowley.

Would be Chorus Girls.

NEW YORK, July 21.-There were
two or three limousine-conveyed as.
pirants for stage honors among three
hundred girls applying today at the
Shubert theatre for chorus girl jobs
Moved by an unprecedented dearth
of experienced chorus girls, the Shu.
bert management had advertised for
''untried" and young talent"-and
was very well satisfied. The girls
who came in limousines were some OF
them from prominent families who
wanted thrill as members of the
chorus or seriously desired an en-.
trance to the drama.
The advertisement didn't add that
pulchritudinous girls were needed
but the veracious press rgent of the
theatre is authority for the assertion
that the charge of the three hundred
was some avalanche of beauty.
