Brownsville, Texas, June 24.?Circulars were distributed in Matamoros, opposite here, today declaring ?x : Af^'AA uiat uie lattibu crossing miu IUCAIVU of American troops near here has /been construed as a declaration of "war against Mexico on the part of the United States. The circulars are signed by Gen. E. P. iNafarrate, who signs himself as commander of Mexican forces in the State of Tamaulipas. The circulars, dated June 17, declare a state of war exists between the two countries. Apparently the circular was issued at the time of the crossing of Americans just west of Brownsville last Saturday in pursuit of bandits "who attacked a detachment of the twenty sixth infantry and raided two ranches near >San Benito. These troops were withdrawn last Sunday upon promises of Mexican authorities to capture and punish the bandits. At least two ibandits were killed and several wounded by the punitive expedition. There were no American casualties. The circular declares all Americans found in Mexico with arms will foe executed, but Americans pursuing peaceful occupations south of the Rio Grande who are not armed would be protected.

Eeuadorean Minister Goes to Washington to Work for Preservation of Amity. New York, June 24.?Gonzalo S. Cardova, minister from Ecuador toi the United States, announced through his secretary tonight that he would leave for (Washington late tonight or early tomorrow to confer with other South American diplomats in an effort to 'bring about 'mediation between the United States and Mexico. Cardova said he had received la structions from Senor Rhelizalde, the foreign minister of Ecuador, directing him to confer with the other diplomats and stating lie had sent messages to the foreign ministers of all Latin-American countries urging k. > ?> <& <$ <i> ^ <?><$> <S> <$'<$- <8> i <? >r>y ix ? .TIKE AM) HOME ECONOMICS ? <$ i GE DEPARTMENT <$> >n Agent Prosperity, S .C <$ lomics Prosperity, S. C. 4> ? I The reason for the above recommen-, dation is as follows: The peach tree borer has four life history stages: (a) The eggs laid in the fall hatch into (b) worms; these! worms when full grown come out of i ' the tree into the ground and form the j] (c) pupa, or resting stage. This stage 1 is passed about an inch from the tree 3 and about an inch below the surface , of the soil. From these pupa the (d) full grown, beautiful clear-winged moths emerge, which lay the eggs for the next year's generation. There is only one generation each y^ear. s If you mound too early many of the worms in the tree will work upward. They begin to come out into the soil July 1st, and continue to come out until about August 22nd. If you mound the trees as above stated then the pupa has about 8 inches of soil over it, through which the moth cannot dig to come to the surface. The female lays her eggs on the bark at the surface of the soil. As the eggs are nearly all l&id by October 1, and hatched hy October 15, it is readily seen that when the mounds are taken down the worms are 8 inches high on the tree, and if the tree is examined the second week of tfs'ovemfoer any worms may be easily located and working in the outer bark they can. be removed with the least trouble.

"I feel that war can be averted if immediate and energetic steps are taken," said Dr. Cardova tbrough his son, who acts as his secretary. He added that while he could of course communicate with his fellow diplomats by telegraph he felt that much more could (be accomplished by seeing them personally.

COLUMBIA TROOP > PLANS ABANDONED Capt, Carter Releases Men to Enlist With Light Dragoons and Machine <?nn Company. ' As stated in the dispatches yesterday the Columbia cavalry troop will not be allowed at this time. Cape. Win. M. Carter is in receipt of letters .from Congressmaen Lever and :Nicholl6, stating that the war department was unwilling to change the plan of organization as agreed under the Hay-Chamberlain bill. Mr. Nicholls in his letter says: "In case there is a call for volunteers, I am satisfied that we will have no trouble at all in getting your troop mustered into service, and from what I can hear this morning in Washington, we will have to declare war on Mexico." lAt noon Thursday Capt. Carter released all of his men who had signed j enlistment cards that wished to enter [ some other organization. Several of the men have entered the machine gun company of the Second regiment and others have entered the Charleston Light Dragoons.
