planted to give the vine a support the second
method usually proving the more satisfactory. It
is propagsted by means Of cuttings and come,
into bearing within three or four years after
being planted. After beginning to bear the black
pepper yields two crops annually for about IL
years, after which the vine loses its vitality for
production and another must be planted to take
its place.
Pepper was known TO the ancients and used
by them as medicine, while in the middle ages
1t was one Of the most costly spices and a pound

 It was reported that 300 Carranza followers had been killed It was feared here that the 600 survivors in the Carranza party who were report ed to have 20 machine guns would be overwhelmed and CarranZa and other members of his administration, incluG- ing several generals, would become victims of their attackers.
 All reports available here indicated General Guarelupe Sanchez had join ed the revolutionary movement, either occupying Vera Cruz or had surround ed that port This would effectually block Carranzas escape by way of Very Cruz.
 General Trevino was accompanied only by his staff. He was commits stoned by Gen. Pablo Gonzalez to at tempt to save Carranza's life.

Liverpool was buyer, however, while the unfavorable news from the goods trade seemed to apply more particular ly to woolens and silks than cotton, and active deliveries turned irmer on covering.
 This became more active on the fore east for showers in the eastern belt, while the buying later was further by bullish interpretation of the weekly report of the Weather Bureau and numerous crop complaints from eastern and central sections of inc belt. There were also complaints of excessive rainfall in some parts of the Southwest.
