extension agent are attending the
annual conference of county ex-
tension fan, workers being he'd at the
tote college this week. The con-

{, viii continue until Friday evening.
Mrs. Davis is acting as secretary
"a the general conference program
on Friday morning, while Mr.. Dur
dle IS chairman of the committee
On fertilizer recommendations for
1888 season.
One of the outstanding features
Of the conference this year is to
he the consideration of the agri-
cultural situation. There just has
been printed report on the agri-
cultural situation by a special
committee from the Association
Of Land Grant Colleges and uni
yersities. The personnel of this
committee is Thomas Cooper, the
chairman, who is Dean and Direct
Of the College of Agriculture, Uni
versity of Kentucky; L. N. Dun
can. Director of extension, Ala
hanna Polytechnic institute; II. w.
Moomford, Dean and Director of
the College of Agriculture, Uni
versity of Illinois; III. R. Tolley,
secretary and Director Giannini
Foundation of Agricultural Eco
nomics, University Of California;
G. F. Warren, Head of Department
Of Agriculture of Economics and
Farm Management, Cornell Uni
versity; M. L. Wilson, Head of the
Department of Agriculture Eco
Monies, Montana state college.
The report is a summing up of
questionnaires having come to
extension agents in the field and
being summed up at the various
state colleges, then being forward
ed to the association at it's annual
meeting. The program as out
lined by the three major organi-
zations, the National Grange, AM
erican Farm Bureau, and the
Farmers Union, have also been
given careful consideration. I'm
doubtedly this report will be made
the subject of study by community
groups in this county following
the return from conference.

UNITED STATES KEEPSITSEYE
 CUBAN EVENTS

WASHINGTON, Aug. 12. - Tn e State Department last night sharp ly scrutinized every move in the Cuban political drama to determine whether the Herrera military dic- torship is actually in acceptance of the American peace plan or merely a subterfuge to keep the Machado- ists in power.
 The withdrawal of Machado from active control of the government in favor of Secretary of War Herrera is definitely in line with the pro gram of settlement proposed by U. s. Ambassador Sumner Welles
 Provided the situation in Cuba does not change soon the State Department has begun consider ation of the possibility of applying strong economic pressure on Cuba to force the retirement of Machado and restore peace
 At Hyde Park the development of Cuba'S economic life was revealed Friday evening as the objective of President Roosevelt's policy rathe- than the protection of American investments in sugar and tobacco.
 The chief executives program for Cuba has been placed squarely up to Cuban authorities, whose ac- ceptance or rejection will deter mine if the island republic is to continue peace or war

SEVEN CUBAN
 ARMY OFFICERS
 WERE EXECUTED

HAVANA, Cuba, Aug. 12. Pre- Sident Gerardo Machado, in grim gesture demonstrating his power, at a late hour Friday drove from the Presidential Palace to Camp Columbia and there personally or iered the execution of seven army officers who had signed a petition asking for his resignation, a high source told the press.
 The orders were carried out the informant said, and within three hours time the President was back n his palace.
 The officers, including G sp r Betancourt and a man Il m d Rousseau, had presented the peti- ion to Colonel Castillo, commander of the camp, which is the army headquarters and is located fiv e niles from Havana.
 Machado gained knowledge of the petition and decided to act at once.
 When Machado left the Palace 4he word spread quickly and the general belief was h he h d decided to comply with the request that he take a leave of absence, The people came out in the streets, forgot their fear and for a while ,he excitment ran high as the de- .nonstrative humanity seemed to nave no bounds for their enthuSl- asn of at least a partial letup in ,he political crisis. It appea re d later. however, that the Cubans were a little premature in their celebration as Machado returned 70 occupy his same post.
