TWO AMERICANS AND
FORTY MEXICANS DEAD

San Antonio, Tex, April lit was
an "unprovoked attack" on unarmed
American soldiers, who had entered
Parral merely to purchase supplies,
that p~recipitated an action between
Mexicans and Americans there
Wednesday, according to an official
report received from General Pershing.
His report was the first official
news that has been received of the
incident, which drew from C%arranza
the urgent recommendation that the
American troops be withdrawn.
He said that a part Of the soldiers,
leaving their arms at the camp out
side the town, entered to buy food.
They were fired upon and retreated in
the direction Of the camp. The troops
there moved forward to meet the Mex
leans, who were pursuing the retreat
ing troops, and began a sharp fire,
killing forty Mexicans.
He reported the American dead as
two. No mention of wounded, either
Of the Americans or the Mexicans,
was made.

The troops which have been order

on duty along the border.
What troops will relieve them and
where they will come from remains
unannounced.
1t may be that the war department

may be that the filling Of the vacant

SMALL TRACTORS FOR FARMS.

Profitable Only When Farmer Can Dis
pense With More Costly Power.
Prepared by United States department of
agricultural
Generally speaking, the farm tractor
Is a profitable investment only when it
enables the farmer to dispense with
other forms of power which cost him
more The most usual form of power
on a farm is, Of course, horses. Since
the working life Of a horse is on the
average twice that Of a tractor the ma
chine should displace, if there is to be
no other saving, at least double the
value in horses of its OWL cost. As a
matter Of fact, however, this is not the
only saving. The small tractors now
being constructed will, as a rule, take
the place Of a stationary engine in op-
Grating various farm machines. The
difference in price between the two is
not great, so that on farms where sta
tionary engines are now used a tractor
would not have to displace horses to
any great extent in order to make it's
purchase a profitable investment.
The type Of tractor which appears to
be most in demand at the present time
Is a small, low priced outfit, capable Of
pulling two to four plow bottoms and
with a belt capacity sufficient to oper-
ate any of the ordinary farm machines.
Such a tractor is capable Of doing prac-
tically all the blowing on the average
farm, and the number of horses to be
kept therefore will depend upon the
amount of cultivation, ETC., which is
required. This fact should be taken
into consideration in planning a crop
ping system. The work Of the farm
should be laid out so as to make the
greatest use Of the tractor. Like every
machine, the tractors life should not
be prolonged by idleness, but it should
be worn out as rapidly as possible by
constant use in profitable work.
The small tractors that are now be-
ing built for medium size farms are of
simpler construction than the large
ones, which alone were obtainable up
to a year and a half or SO ago. Most
Of the new machines have only one
drive wheel, one forward speed and one
reverse. This eliminates considerable
gearing. At the anne time it is now
possible to hitch a two bottom gang
plow directly behind the center Of draft
Of the machine without the tractor
travelling on the ploweds land. From a
practical standpoint, however, the me-
chanical improvements in the new
tractors are not so important to the
farmer as the reduction In price.
