Proceedings Expected to Begin
All Over as Result of Visit of
Dr. Naon to Washington.
By LAURENCE TOD.
MEDIATION HEADQUARTERS,
Niagar Falls, Ontario, June 22.—The
possibility of beginning 1-ediation
proceedings all over again with rep
resentatives of the Constitutionalists
present faced the mediators, the
Huerta delegates and the American
representatives to-day.
Not one word had been disclosed by
the three South American mediators
up to the time set for the full con
ference, the first to be held for nearly
a week, as to the details of the new
plam. for the settlement of the Mexi-‘
can problem. This"plan was origi-i
nated by Dr. Naon, the Argentina en
voy, after his conference with Secre- ‘
tary Bryan in Washington, and with
Luis Cabrera, representative of Gen- ‘
eral Carranza. It has the approval of
President Wilsen,
Must Deal With Rebels.
The only thing definitely known
about the new plan was that it -
ceded the necessity of deallng with
the Mexican rebels, and this gave rise
to the natural theory that the plan
provides for an armistice.
Two facts lend color to the belief
that this proposed new plan alone has
prevented the collapse’ of mediation.l
The first is the sudden change from
pessimism to optimism In the official
tone of discussion of the whole sub
ject. The second, the general dispo
sition of both sides to talk to the pub
lic. ’
It was the publication of the Mexi
can delegation’s views of the policy
fursued by the Americans that came
within a hand’'s turn of breaking up
the conference last week. Now the
order has come from General Huerta
in Mexico City: “Keep your lips
closed.” .
Believe Armistice Impossible.
There are some here who hold the
belief that General Carranza could
not establish an armistice in North
ern Mexico if he tried. Those who
hold this view hold the opinion that
Carranza will be formally asked to
send representatives to Niagara Falls
with no mention being made of a
truce. Genzral Villa will continue his
campaign under the circumstances
against Zacatecas as a preliminary
step to an attack on Mexico City.
It is said that one reason for the
reporfted split between Villa and Car
ranza was the latter's inclination to
favor an armistice and Villa’'s oppo
gition to it,
During the forenoon the Mexican
delegates received a long message
from Washington. and immediately
adjourned to discuss its contents, The
Mexicans emphatically denied that
they had received any further in
structions from Mexico City since the
arrival of Dr. Naon from Washing
ton, but admitted they had received
a telegram of a “very personal na
ture from General Huerta last night.
Their position is unchanged, they
said.

BIG WHEAT GROP
PREDIGTED FOR
GEORGIA
Dr. H. E. Stockbridge Expects
Greatest Yield in State Since
\ the Civil War. 3
There {s no great reason why the
bread that is served vou moruing,
noon and night should not be made,
partly at least, of Georgia flour, in
the opinion of Dr. H. E. Stockbridge,
editor of The Southern Ruralist and
an expert on agriculture. Dr. Stock
bridge said Monday he believes wheat
will agsume this year its former glory
as a significant crop in Georgia's agri
cultural development, and that the
State's greatest wheuat crop since the
war between the States will be pro
duced.
“More wheat was planted this year
than ever before in the memories of
most of our farmers,” said Dr. Stock
bridge. “We have always had wheat
in the northern counties that fringe
the cotton belt, as in Cherokee, Pick
ens and Bartow.
“But this year the grain was plant
ed on thousands of acres south of At~
fanta, flourishing most extensively
about a territory reaching east and
wvest from a line approximateiy drawn
.rom Jonesboro to Forsyth. Also in
Clayton, Spalding and Pike Counties
.here is much wheat.
Crop Thrives, Too.
“And it thrived, too. For the sake
of the wheat, farmers should have
velcomed the drouth that came in
May, because a dry May brings a
great wheat crop. That is an axiom.
“In a great many centers in this
newly-developed wheat belt there are
mills which grind the grain for local
use and Jor shipments in many cases.
This industry should grow—in fact,
it will grow, because the Georgia
wheat, ground at home, produces the
whole wheat flour that is many times
moré nutritious than the flour that
comes from Kansas, Nebraska and
other Western places.
“The great acreage devoted this
vear to wheat is the result mainly of
the educational! campaign for diversi
fication of crops, as well as for the
growing knowledge of the farmers
that wheat can be made a money
crop. Naturally, it displaces much
cotton, but it displaces more oats, be
cause it is a far more profitable
grain.”
The Georgia wheat has for years
beeon ground in local water mills, Dr.
Stockbridge explained. and these
mills, scattered here and there in the
wheat belt, were many times over
loaded with orders for whole wheat
flour,
Room for Some Mills.
With the increased wheat acreage
there is the opportunity for more and
larger mills, the editor hinted, for the
production of flour from Ceorgia
wheal.
“Time was,” he explaryed, “when
every farm and plantation in (Georgia
produced everything needed for the
sustenance of its owner and workers,
from wheat to snoe leather. But
those times passed with the lessened
cost of manufactured articles, and
with the growing profit to be had
from cotton, so that many of our
primitive hearthstone industries
passed.
“But with the need of diversifica
tion upon us, and with the recogni
tion tha: wheat in Georgia can be
made to pay well, the wheat industry
ia being revived. I could not hazard
the approximate acreage next year,
but it will be greater than for many
vears before
