' A V '-. cAND INSPECT FARM brother Leo Explains Methods L'sed in Inereasinj; Farm Land Production. Something of th- romance of f inning was revealed at Noire Dame Tuesday, when l"a automobiles carrying several huudr d agriculturists from Marshall county. Indiana., toured the community farm fo investigate the sst rn of soil-reulama-tion being practiced by rrUher Lcj for the adequate preparation of the land for growing alfalfa and red clover. Th- party spent a half day at the university. Although fcientiMe farming in in its infancy, the particular method in use by Brother Leo was discovered r" years ago, but has been slow to bo practiced by the farmers of tho country. Experiments at the Notro Dime Agricultural college proved the practicability of the method, which hae been used profitably on 4'Mi acies of the ommunity farnn since. The success of th- plan attracted the excursion of farmern who visited the fields Monday to investigate the system and tabulate results accruing from its us'. Alfalfa and red clover will not grow in this section, ac-eording to Brother Leo, bt cause of the absence "f certain products f the soil, included ! 1 1 1 a 1 1 a aim rn clover a re , n; uo- lainny d .egubir.ous pl.infis 1 w Inch re.iiii e niti-ogt-n f i a in the air I'.v the operation of eitain bacterin I wliic-h attach themselves to th- root I "f 'h- plant; and the deficiency in i i - . i i soil is lue to the fact that ccrtain ingredients of the soil necessary tor tlie lift' of tlie bac teria, have been US" 1 up. The method used by Brother Leo on th" community farms prepares the soil for this bacteria by the addition e.f limestone to its composition. Bacteria are then glued onto th roots of the first plants, after which the ba.-teria multiply rapidly and exist in the s-oil as long :.m the limestone js ?uppli-d when ih '.( ss t ry. Analogous methods :ir,. used to stimulate the growth of rther plants according to Brother Leo, who stated that a full realization cf the value of scientific farming by the agriculturists if the country vould make :k" probh-m of harr n Land almost ry. gligible.

Say Recognition Will Follow Negotiation of batisfao

torv ireaty. (Omtlnneyl fron Tacr One.) conduct of activities in helpful cooperation are possible. "This question should not be confueed with any matter of personality or of the recognition of any particular administration. Whenever Mexico is ready to give assurancethat sh will perforin her fundamental obligation In the protection of both persons and of righfj of property validly acquired, there will be no obstacles to the most advantageous relations between the two peoples. U,uctIon Vital. "This question is vital because -f the provisions inrted in the Mexican constitution, promulgated !n 1917. "If these provisions are to be put into effe'-t retroactively the properties of American citizens will be contiscated on a gieat scale. This would constitute an International wrong of the gravest character and this government could not eubmit to its accomplishment. If it be said that this wrong is not Intended and that the constitution of Mexico- of 1917 will not be construed to permit or enforced so ? to affect, confiscation, then it is important that this should be made clear by guarantees in proper form. The provisions of the constitution and the executive leerees which have been formulated with confiscatory purposes make it obviously neces.ary that the purposes of Mexico should be definitely set forth. "Accordingly, thi government has proposed a treaty of amity and commerce with Mexico, in which Mexico will agree to safeg-u?rd the rights of property which attached before the co..(!titution of 1917 was promulgated. The questior, it wdll be observed, is not one of a particular administration, but cf the agreement of the nation in proper form which has become necessary as an international matter because of the provisions of its domestic legislation. The government cf the United States can conceive of no objection to the treaty. The proposed treaty also contains the conventional stipulation as to commerce and reci procal rights in both countries. It also provides for the conclusion of a convention for the settlement of claims for lcs.se of life and property, which of course meana the prompt establishment of a suitable claims commission in which both countries would be represented, in order to effect a Just s-ettlement. There Is also a provision for a Just settlement of boundary matters. No Difficulty. "The question of recognition is a subordinate one, but there will be no difficulty as to this when fieri. Obrcgon is ready te negotiate a proper treaty. It is drawn so as to be negotiated with him and the making of the treaty In proper form will accomplish the recognition of the government that makes it. When it appear.? there is a government In Mexico willirg to bind itelf to the discharge of primary international obligations concurrently witb that act Its recognition will take place. "Accordingly on the 27th of May last. Mr. Surnmerlin, American charge d'affaires at Mexico City, presented to Gen. Obreren, a treaty covering the matters to which rcfeience has been made. "The matter Is now In the coursi of negotiations and it Is to be hoped that when the nature of the pTecls question i.s fully appreciated the obstacles which have stood in the way of a satisfactory settlement will disappear." LAW VIOLATORS IN HEAVEN OF DELIGHT Police Get 'Vacation' Through Governor's Delay in Naming City Judge. Gov. Warren T. McCray will be reelected if the sentiment now existing in the South Bend police department prevails throughout the state when the next election day rolls around. Why? Because the governor's actiun in accepting Judge Gilmer' -9 resignation as city judge and failingto appoint a. successor has left the police officers in a peculiar predicament which amounts to nothing more than a "vacation." The "vacation" part come this way the police figure: "What Is the use of going out and arresting a number of law violate rs w hen there Is no court to decide whether or not the arrested persons really bcoke the law?" The polio officers have studied the logic in this proposition and have reached the conclusion that it would be noth'ng more than a "waste of time." Therefore, thos persons who w o'jbj Le brought into court on various minor offer.0 aro "getting by" at the present time, ir.d they also should be thankful to the governor. Since Monday several persons who were arretted on offenses varying from violating the speed '.aw. drunkcne.ss. vagrancy, etc., have been released from the city bastile and the charges against them have been dropped. How long the "'vacation" will continue is a matter of conjecture, but the police are "hopin" that the governcr will slumber on. it wa.s raid.
