of Sonora. This is the hope of the
Mexican government, which has Just
entered into contract with the I'm.
perial Japanese in that State. The
colonists will be given the confis-
Gated Yaqui lands and will be expect
ed to prevent the Indians carrying
produce and cattle out of the valleys
to their hiding places in the noun
tains.
The Yaquis are in the habit OF OBJ
tanning supplies by making periodical
raids on the ranches In the valleys
which at one time belonged to them.
AS soon as the colonization plans are
put into effect the Indians will have
veterans of Far Eastern campaigns
instead OF fear.stricker natives to
deal with. If the Yaquis can be pre-
vented from getting supplies they can
soon be starved into submission.
The colonization plans call for the
settlement Of the Japanese in groups
in the centre of the agricultural tracts,
so that they will be better prepared
for defensive action against the In.
dams. The colonists are to be fur.
nished with arms and ammunition.
About seven hundred former soldiers
and their families will be settled In
the Yaqui country.

CROWS AS PETS.
Did YOU ever own a crow

Did you ever own a crow?
II not you have missed more than
cart load of innocent fun. [ have own
ed all sorts of pets in my life, from pet
beetles to coons, dogs and deer, but
none gave the all round satisfaction of
the crow.
1t is hardy, full of the jolliest of
tricks, is as atfectionate and loyal as a
dog, as comical as a clown, and almost
as intelligent as a boy A pet crow
knows its friends and enemies and will
allow no liberties from a stranger. Of
course, crows honesty is no better
than that of pack rat, but my crow
never stole from me, and somehow or
other one finds 1t easy to forgive thief
who only steals from others.
When we dug up our flower bed in the
early spring there were no less than
seven silver thlmbles unearthed, and
not one of the lot came from our house.
One day "Bllly' brought me a nice two
dollar greenbach. In those DAYS two
dollar bill was very, very large amount
to me, and stood for an unheard of
amount OF butter scotch and ginger
bread.
Of course the money did not belong
to me, but neither did it belong to the
crow, and Billy would not tell where
he got his wealth, SO after "a consulta-
ton with my parents and my teacher,
and after waiting to see if anyone
claimed the bill, it was at length de-
cided to be my property, and 1t was the
first two dollars | ever had all i'll a
heap.
But it was not always money the
crow found once he filled all the crew
ices in my mothers bed with liver; this
could not be seen and attracted no at
tention until the summer heat began to
act upon it, then everybody in the
house knew that something had hap
pened The old folks said rat must
have died in the partition, but the crow
and | were chums and understood each
other. l suspected the real cause of
the disagreeable odor, and as soon as
the coast was clear, discovered and re-
moved the liver, and never until this
day did l give the crow away.-Dan

Charley will be eight years old next

SNOWFALL is two years of age and tips

the sheep to harness and drives it in a

SNOWFALL minds the rein as we'll as a

pretty lively team, but the boy would
not swap outfits with him, as he is much
attached to ball.-Bangor News.
