ether variety. Burpees StrincIess Green Pod is another very good green bean for fall use, but is a little later than the above aad more subjcce to trust. Where the conditions are favor able, it will however, give good re- suits. The Longfellow is another good green bean of excellent quality and well suited to the fall crop. The wax podded beans are planted in some localities for the fall crop with excellent results, but generally speak ing, We would not think them as de- Pendable as the green pods?
 Cultivation.-The cultivation of the fall crop of beans is d very simple high state of cultivation from the matter. The soil should be in very start and just as soon as the seed are up, and before, if necessary, the soil should be stirred with a light harrow to break the crust, kill young weeds and conserve moisture. After this the only cultivation necessary will be to run through the rows once or twice with a spring tooth cultivator like the Gee Whiz, or, a broad, flat sweep may be used that will sweep out the entire row at one time.
 There is one important point how ever, that should not be overlooked in the cultivation of the bean crop. It should never be cultivated while wet, either from dew or rain, and espec- ially when the soil is wet, as this has 9 tendency to spread rust and pod spot. These are fungus diseases of the bean and the litter (pod-spot) injures the selling qualities of the beans to very serious extent wher- ever conditions are favorable for it's spread and measures are not taken for it's control. This disease, how ever, does not affect the green podded beans to any extent.
 Those who are interested in grow ] ing fall beans, and would like further information should take the matter up with us without delay, as the time for planting this crop is not far distant

EXTENSION NOTES.

Growing Fall Beans For Market.
 The growing of the late or fall beans for market in this territory is an industry not yet developed and as cuite a number of our farmers are expecting to try the crop this fall, we would like to call their attention to few of the most important points regarding the cultivation of this crop.
 The first question that occurs to the grower, or, prospective grower, of new crop is; Can market be found for it? We would like to an- swer this question candidly, by say ing that the market for fall beans is not as extensive as that for the early or spring crop, although prices are usually better and it is safe to say that a good and ready market can be found for fall beans of first class quail ity properly packed and distributed to the different markets where there Is good demand. The large markets of the North are usually well supplied with beans during late summer and fall, and consequently, we will have to look to the markets of the South and West for our fall beans.
 The soil and it's preparation. 1t should be remembered that we have q limited time in which to grow a fall crop ot beans, consequently every thing possible should be done to pro- vide the right conditions for the de- Velopment of the crop from start to finish \ reasonably good soil should be selected, preferably a soil that has been quite heavily manured for a preceding crop. It is also best to select a soil that is quite retentive of moisture, as piece of bottom land Tor instance, provided it would not be subject to overflow from heavy rains.

Such a soil, when brought into a ine state of cultivation, should be ideal for fall beans. It would seem alrc.t unnecessary to emphasize the impors- ance of thorough preparation in ad- vance of planting, but many growers do not seem to realize it's necessity. The soil should be we'll broken and finely narrowed and the weeds and grass completely exterminated before lplanting.
 Date of Planting.-From six to eight weeks are required for the full development of the bean crop, and re- membering that killing frost is likely to occur any time after the 18th of October, the time of planting should be governed accordingly. This means that planting should be done in this section anywhere from the 10th to the 10th of August, but much earlier than these dates would not be advis- | able on account of the heat of the summer, which is unfavorable to the bean crop. The soil cannot be too well prepared for the reception of the seed. and plenty of readily available plant food Is essential for best results. This is best supplied through barnyard manure applied to a preceding crop.
 Method of Planting.-The planting should be done when there is good moisture in the soil as success will depend on quick germination of the seed The soil should be narrowed down smooth and level, and rows laid out about three feet apart, with a small scooter blow not over three inches deep, the seed planted in the fresh soil and covered immediately. The seed should be dropped about ten inches apart, though if seed were plentiful and cheap they could Le planted thicker in order to insure a good stand and thin out later to F inches apart. However. with the pres ent high prices of seed, it is necessary to make them go as far as possible. If it is found practicable to use a corn and pea planter, by making some alterations in the plate holes, it would be much better to use these for plant ing beans, especially those with a roller attachment, as it is highly de- sirable that the soil be firmed around the seed to hold moisture and insure better germination.
 Amount of Seed Necessary.-Usu- ally in planting the early crop of beans for market purposes, the grower uses something over one bush el of seed per acre, but for the sum- mer or fall crop, it is not necessary to use more than one peck to the acre. Rows laid out three feet apart and seed dropped from ten to twelve inches in the drill, one peck will cas- fly plant an acre. This quantity of seed may not give a good stand un- less conditions are very favorable but owing to the high prices of seed the grower cannot afford to plant d larger quantity under ordinary condi- tions.
 Variety to Plant.-The round stringess, green-podded varieties are the most desirable for summer plant ing, as they withstand adverse con ditions better than the wax poddec varieties There are many named sorts of the green varieties The best known and most universally planted is the Early Valentine. This variety natures early and will with stand more heat and drouth without becoming too tough than most ary l

FORWARD ENGLAND
BLACKLIST PROTEST
RESTRICTIONS ON AMERICAN
TRADE ARE SET FORTH
VIGOROUSLY.

Washington.-American Ambassa-
dor Page will present to the British
Foreign Office a formal note protest
ing against the blacklisting of Ameri-
can business firms under the trading
with the enemy act In announcing
that the communication had been
transmitted to London, Acting Secre-
tary Polk said it discussed only the
general principles of international law
involved without specifically taking up
cases of individual firms blacklsted.
The note, officially described at the
department "as a protest" is said au-
thoritatively to be positive in tenor
and to leave no doubt regarding this
governments attitude. 1t is about l.
900 words in length.
While officials are reticent regard
ing details of the representations
made, it was understood this govern
ment's view that illegal restrictions
are imposed by the blacklist order
upon the freedom of American trade
is set forth in vigorous terms. Some
modification of the order, it is believ-
ed, is insisted upon. There have been
indications that should diplomatic eff
forts fail to bring relief to affected
American firms, some form of retalia-
tion would ha oopcidora1 b,y tba Init
ed States.
The British ambassador conferred
with Mr.. Polk and it is believed he
was given a full explanation Of the
basis Of this governments protest in
international law. Individual cases of
blacklisted firms, it is expected, will
be taken up in personal conversations
here and at London.

MEXICAN BANDITS
KILL U. s. TROOPERS
ONE AMERICAN CAVALRYMAN Sc
RIOUSLY WOUNDED IN CLASH
BANDITS LEFT FOUR DEAD.

San Antonio. - Carranzista and
United States troops fought side by
side in the engagement with Mexican
bandits south of Fort Hancock, Texas,
according to the official report from
Brig Gen. George bell, Jr., at Ell Paso,
to Maj. Gen. Funston.
After the bandits had been sur
rounded in a ranch house on the Amer
lean side of the Rio Grande River and
an American customs guard had been
killed, another customs guard named
Bean ran down to the river bank and
called to a detachment of Carranzistas
on the Mexican side to come over and
assist the American troops.
A captain and eight soldiers re-
sponded. They joined in the fighting,
which became general. Soon, the re-
port says, the bandits fed from the
ranch house and retreated over the
river leaving behind four dead.
The American dead numbered two,
Private John Tweney, F Troop, Eighth
United States Cavalry, and Robert
Woods, customs guard. Sergt. Lewis
Thompson, +. Troop, Eighth United
States Cavalry, was seriously wound
ed. He was made the target of three
bullets.
The report of Gen. Funston does not
make clear the manner in which the
fight, which took place about 1:3O a.
m, began, nor does il indicate the OBJ
ject of the bandits in crossing to the
American side.
Gen. Funston said it was possible,
however, that the bandits, when sur
prised by the Americans, were at
tempting to escape from the Carran-
zistas, who later engaged in the battle.
The latter had been in pursuit Of
the marauders for several days.
The American force consisted Of
eight men under command of Sergt
Thompson, two hospital corps men
and the two customs guards. They
speedily surrounded the Mexicans in
the ranch house. Woods was the first
to fall, laid low by bandit who had
slipped outside to aim at him.
His death was avenged moment
later by one Of the hospital corps
men, who shot down the bandit just as
he was fleeing back into the house
1t was at this point that Bean sum-
moned the Carranzistas. Brisk firing
followed for a time. Then quiet
reigned in the ranch house. A eau
tious investigation disclosed three
more dead bandits inside its walls,
The remainder had succeeded in get
ting out and making their way over
the Rio Grande. The Carranzistas fol-
lowed in pursuit Gen. Funston said
that no American troops would join
the chase. The number of bandits
who escaped is not known here.
