THE YAQUl INDIAN WAR
Wednesdays Herald)

General Francisco Manzo, com
mander OF the Mexican troops in
the state of Sonora. Mexico, and
prosecuting the Yaqui war the
past six mouths, arrived at Aqua
Zarca, a small station approx
mately 25 miles south of the in
ternational border at the head Of
1000 troops to be used in patrol
ling the northern district of the
state and resulting recent
heavy clash with Yaqui Indians
fleeing the Bacatetes seeking re
fuge in the United States.
General Manzo arrived at Aqua
Zlrca yesterday on a special
military train rushed from the
Ortiz headquarters. This addi
tional force gives the border at
this point reinforcement of ap
proximately $500 men.
Airplanes of Mexico sent from
central Sonora Immediately fol
lowing the clash of Saturday,
continue to patrol the interna
tional border. Two American
planes are likewise continuing to
cooperate with the United States
border patrol.
Uncon firmed reports today say
that several more Indians died
this morning before firing
squad. These are said to have
been prisoners taken Saturday.
Intermittent firing at an early
hour this morning and occurring
few miles west of Nogales, Sono
ra, Mexico, is being attributed
to a skirmish although no official
confirmation can be obtained.
One report, reliably based, is
that small band of Yaqui To
dians were sighted at Iona by
a Mexican border patrol and
routed after the EXCHANGE of FIR
ing. Another report is that this
being Santa Cruz day, observing
the patron saint CT miners, that
the firing is in customary honor
of the event.
Firing occurring shortl Y after
six o'clock last evening and com
ing from the east OF Nogales,
Sonora, was definitely attributed
to the saints day demonstration.

A BIG NEED FOR SANTA CRUZ
COUNTY

Tt has been aptly remarked
that the biggest crop in America
is the tourist crop. The high
ways and by ways are dotted with
automobiles loaded down with
tourists. The trains are full of
them. They are on the go, re
aching out, looking around for
some choice spot in the map
where they can settle down and
become a part of community.
The tourists have their eyes
turned to the vast stretches OF
the great Southwest. They are
literally pouring into Arizona by
the thousands. Nothing can stop
them.
Wideawake communities can
expand their population and in
cidentally decrease their tax
burden by inviting new residents
and new investors. 1t is good
business.
What is Santa Cruz County
doing to invite tourists? 1t is
true that Santa Cruz, the small
est county in Arizona is one OF
the best. 1t is fertile. Its acres
are filled with trees and streams.
1t is an agricultural county and
a convenient county.
The Herald urges the county
board of supervisors to consider
the tourist travel carefully. To
provide some means, without
enormous expenditure, of extend
ing an invitation to the tourists
to pick Santa Cruz as their fut
ure home.
Tourist camps would aid The
county. Several camps should
be provided and maintained. One
should be located along the banks
of the Sonoita; another shoulc

departments5 toned at Nogales;
the smallness Of the force of in

quarters, into which are crowd

came under the observation and
criticism of D. S. Senator Henry
F. Ashurst, who paid a visit to
Nogales yesterday
In kilograms addressed to the
secretary of labor and to the
commissioner general of immi-
grafton, the local Offices and in
adequate force were raped and
call was made for immediate
relief.
Senator Ashurst was asked by
local interested citizens to pay a
casual visit to the immigration
offices. AT the time he called rs
aliens, mostly Mexicans, were
awaiting inspection. Five in
spectors were doing their best
to perform their arduous duty.
The crowded room, the thick,
stuffy atmosphere, the detail and
the general inadequacy Impress
ed the senator so that he tele-
graphed officials in Washington
for relief.
The following is copy of the
telegram sent:

Secretary of Labor, and
Commissioner General of Immi-
grafton, Washington, D. G..
After making personal invest
igation of immigration matters
at the port of Nogales | am
shocked at the inadequacy of
facilities and personnel for the
proper handling of same. The
rooms where the inspection of
aliens is made is a disgrace to
the United States government as.
such cramped quarters are utter
ly unsuited for the purpose and
are very unsanitary.

persons are packed together
every day awaiting their turn to
be inspected, some finding it me-
cessary to wait two days.
The situation is not only dan.
gerous to health but is very in.
efficient. This is the season for
many Mexicans to come through
this port going to the seashore
for the summer. Many Mexican
business men desire to come to
the border to trade or make So
cial visits and find it impossible
to obtain the necessary docu-
ments and inspection due to the
force being entirely too small to
handle the traffic. The compile.
tion of the railroad line, which
extends from Nogales to Guada-
lajara, Mexico, opens up entry
TO the interior of Mexico and
congestion to this port will pro-
gressively increase. Additional
quarters and increased force
here are imperative and if me-
elected will lead to spread Of
disease. The force here is faith
full and diligent but utterly too
small. Please give US immediate
relief.

Successful Way to Kill
Biennial Sweet Glover

AS yet no successful way of killing
all of the biennial sweet clover plants
in field by blowing in the fall of the
first year of growth has been found.
The Iowa experiment station has
searched diligently among sweet
clover growers of long standing and
the United States Department of
Agriculture has conducted rather ex-
tensive tests at Redfield, S. D.. but
to no avail.
While no scheme of treating the
clover, blowing, or other treatment of
the soil, is entirely successful in kill
ing all of the plants, when blowing is
done in the fall, many who are grow
ing sweet clover with all of their
small grain for hay and. soil improve
ment, fall pillow part or all of the
sweet clover acreage in the fall of the
first year of growth.
In sections where corn is regularly
listed the sweet clover is plowed late
in the fall and the plants which are
not killed are eradicated with COM
parative ease by the regular process
of cultivation. Moving more soil and
eultivating deeper in listed corn
makes this possible.

See Possibility of
Tapping Eorfh's Heat

The possibility of putting down
boreholes four or five miles apart over
most of the land areas of the globe
to utilize the earth's internal heat for
mans purposes was discussed in a pa
per read to the engineering section of
the British association by ]. L. Hodg-
son, civil engineer. Mr.. Hodgson
said the heat stored in the hot rocks
of the earth's interior was immense
at least 30,000,000 times the heat re-
serves in the worlds coal supply.
Only the heat available down to a
depth of, say, 80 miles under the land
areas was likely to be of interest to
engineers during the next few hun
dred years, but even this was ten
times the heat contained in the
worlds coal reserves and, if it could
be used, would provide the heat re-
quired by mankind for many thou
sands of years. He declared that ex-
ploitation of this heat seemed to be
on the border line of practicability.

Curing Pop Corn Is Not
a Very Difficult Task

Nearly every farmer raises enough
pop corn for home use, but many
seem to have difficulty in curing the
finished product, and usually consider
it a matter of luck. But if the right
procedure is taken, the curing Is a
simple process.
Pop corn, unlike other corn, should
be allowed to remain on the stalks in
the field until Thoroughly ripe and hard.
It should then be cut and put in small
shocks and a Irvine tied around each
shock near the top to make it cone
shaped; this will help shed the water
and prevent molding. After about two
weeks it should be husked out and
placed in an attic on piece of chick
en- netting or screen suspended from
the roof so that rats and mice will
not have access TO it.
Later in the season when cold
weather comes and the corn has
dried thoroughly it should be re-
moved to cold place if the attic is
not very cold. This step has very
important bearing on the popping
quality of the corn.

Some Gave No Response.
''Not all the experiment fields in the
state nor even all soil treatments,
however, gave such results as these.
In fact, some experiment fields and
some soil treatment practices gave
no response at all as far as the factor
of maturity was concerned. An aver
age of all the experiment fields in the
state for the last rotation and for the
years 1924 and 1917 indicates, how
ever, that soil treatment practices, in
general, aside from their value in in
creasing the yield of corn, do have
positive effects on maturity and hence
on the quality of the crop produced.
Lowest Response in 1924.
"The lowest response for any treat
ment was in 1924 when only 63 per
cent of the fields gave a positive re-
Spouse for treatment with corn resi-
dues. The highest response was in
1917 when SO per cent of the fields
gave positive ,sponse for treatment
with residues, limestone, phosphate
and potash. In general, the degree of
response with respect to quality was
much greater in poor corn years than
for the entire rotation, although for
some fields the results for the rotation
were quite marked. These results are
of value in pointing out the possible

THE DAILY WORKER, alone of the
4 hundreds of daily papers in the
United States, publishes the amazing
story of the corruption uncovered at
the Camden convention of the New
Jersey Federation of Labor.
New Jersey, a veritable hive of in
dustry, probably has the lowest per-
centage of union organization work

some southern states.
Newark, the biggest finish"4

for the open shoppers.
ONE of the principal reasons for this
" condition now has been revealed:
The officialdom of the state fede-

it is to take the lead in, organiza-

roll of some of the most powerful
open shop corporations in the United

The labor ticket has nominated a

Candidates Speak.
The meeting was addressed by the
labor candidates for the city council:
Gus Deak, End ward; Felix Panerisi,
3rd ward and John Di Santo, 4th

walk out; the shop is now empty, the
only worker" now remaining is the
foreman and he too will have to give
in. These workers see the strength
in unity and are determined to win
their battle; but they must realize
that steady picketing of the shop as
signed is necessary in order to win.
This leads US to believe that what
the union needs, now, is good strong

who will have as their duty to see
that the workers are on the picket
line daily and report to the union
