HAUNTS STRAUS AS A VERY
 GHncT
 uEhUUE
Secretary Of Commerce And Labor Had Hoped That He Was Finally And Foreyer Rid Of Antonio ViIIareaL

PHOENIX, Sept. 2I.--Anton!o Vil- l lareai, who is about to be brought to Phoenix for trial on a char ge of con spring against Mexico. nas been a ghost that has haunted Secretary Straus of the department of com merce and labor since he came into office in the cabinet.
 Since the extradition has been re- fused Missouri people by the governor of California. Secretary Straus has breathed easier. but still lives in the fear of the case of the alleged revolu- tionists bobbing up unexpectedly.
 The case of Vallareal was a night mare left over and abandoned by former Secretary Metealf to his sue cessor in the department of com. merce and labor. Metcalf and his subordinates had wrestlsd with the problem in which Villareal was the central figure for six months or more and the present secretary of the navy was glad to leave the case to his sue csssor.
 When it was learned that Villareal had escaped from/the immigration in- spectors at Fl Paso there was some thing akin to rejoicing in the depart ment of commerce and labor, where it was hoped that this was the last that would be heard of Villareal.
 Not so, however, The ghost of the alleged leader of the Mexican revolt tionary junta which thriyed in St. Louis two years ago was destined to rise again.
 Secretary Straus wen to New York two months ago preparatory to start ing on the long tour which he has just cmpleted through Canada. the Northwest Territory. the Hawaiian of this country.
 As he was about to leave he receiy- ed a telegram from the immigration bureau at Washington, D. C.. that Villafeal had been seen in St. Louis Good Lord, are we to be followed by that ghost all around the woTld?" asked Secretary Straus, when his sec retary read the telegram to him. The secretary proceeded on his "trip through Canada, going to British Co., lumbia and down the Pacific coast then out to Hawaii.
 The day after his arrival in San Francisco on the return trip Straus again heard of YillareaI His secre- tary, who accompanied him on his tour, approached him with copies of Los Angeles papers in his hand and a peculiar expression on his counte- nance
 Well. Weed. what is on your mind now? You seem to be troubled about something" remarked Secretary Straus Without comment the private secretary handed copies of the papers to his chief In large headlines ap- peared the name of Villareal, who with three other alleged refugees from Mexico, who it was claimed were in a plot to assassinate President Diaz, had just been arrested.
 We can't get away from him. said Secretary Straus. but he lost no time in making his way eastward
 The department of commerce and labor happily. in the mind of the sec retary. has nothing to do with the present charge against Villareal. The department of state and the depart ment of justice must handle it, they say at the department of commerce and labor
 Secretary Straus is glad to be rid l of the case, even temporarily, but he l is not certain that he has escaped | from the ghost yet

PARCELS POST WILL BE
 PUSHED IN CONGRESS

WARRINGTON, Sept. FLA postal savings bank system and an exten sion of the weight limit of parcels tC eleven pounds will be recommended to Congress by Postmaster General George yon l.. Meyer in his annual report. Broneed by outdoor kving during his vacation, MT. Never re turned to his desk today and made these announcements of future policy
 Both propositions have been ad. ranced in Congress before. Their ad yocates chiefly center in the Middle West Especially is this true of the latter which. If authorized, will in eff feet establish a parcels post in the United States. The mail-order houses of St. Louis and Chicago would be greatly benefited should the Post master Generals recommendation be- come law. Nr. Meyer frankly says that he expects much opposition to both Of his recommendations, but thinks the Western support on which he counts will be strong enough to put them through Congress.
 As matters now stand. no package weighing more than four pounds can be put into the mails for domestic delivery. However, packages weigh ing eleven pounds can be mailed to all the countries of Europe, because the sleyen-pound limit prevails abroad. General Meyer now contends that the citizens mailing to a foreign point should have no advantage over those using the mails within the coun- try only and that the United States should meet the limit set in Europe.
 The postal savings system has been carefully studied by the Postmaster General and he will recommend that 1t be established in this country. It was originated in England in 1860 and has since spread to other countries.
 The benefit of this system said Mr- Meyer. twill be felt especially by the great number of recent immi- grants, who are unfamiliar with our savings banks and who nov hoard their earnings. leaving ar immense amount Of money tied up. Thus the immigrants will be benefited and this sum Of dead money. reaching to mil Hons. will be released fos she uses of commerce.

Corn and Cow Peas.

One of the finest forage crops for
dairy COWS is corn and peas. Some
merely SOW the corn and peas broad
cast together, sowing about one-half
bushel of each per acre. A better way
is to drill or check in the corn and
plant the peas at the same time.
This gives an opportunity for cultiva-
ton and supplies a much better quail
ity of forage. Wait until the ground
becomes thoroughly warmed up and
then use some early variety Of corn.
When grown in this manner the peas
find support on the corn stalks and
the crop may be harvested the same
as ordinary corn fodder. Cut the crop
before frost and set in bundles in
small shocks so that it will cure out
nicely. The mistake is frequently
made in making the shocks too large
and some of the inner bundles are
liable to mold. A combination crop
of this kind will supply a splendid
amount of good feed and the peas will
be helpful in keeping up soil fertility,

Increasing Demand for Milk.

The demand for registered COWS will
annually increase for years to come,
as the consumption of milk in all our
great cities is rapidly increasing.
1t is said that the inhabitants of
the city of New York require daily
1,952,120 quarts of milk, that they
drink six times as much milk as the
people of the city of London.
Milk has become fashionable and
popular for light lunches and as a
diet in all the large cities. Doctors
prescribe its use and it is said that
nearly every known disease, If it does
not actually yield to milk diet, can
be tretaed better incidentally because
of it. 1t is the great modern remedy
for the ills of humanity, most of
which is suffering from overeating.
A series of restaurants in the city of
New York, owned by one firm, alone
bowls of milk daily.
Whether or not the milk diet Is res
ponsible for the increased demand
for milk, the quantity of milk used
in all our great cities Is vastly in
creasing, milk is getting scarce, and
the question of supply is causing
some anxiety.
All large cities are reaching out
into dairy districts accessible to rail-
roads to increase their milk supply.
Under such circumstances the con-
ditions which create the demand for
the cow that produces the largest
quantity of the purest and best milk
at the least expense are apparent and
as this demand increases, as it neces-
sarily must, and knowledge of the de-
sirable qualities of her milk becomes
better known, so will the demand for
the registered cow increase and the
value advance.
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1907-07-15

that there is direct relation between
the condition of the milk and the
death rate; that the purifying of the
milk reduces materially the mortality
of children.
In cities there should not be so
much stress laid on the quantity of
milk given for the price and more on
the quality. Sanitary conditions would
be more rapidly developed if little
higher price were allowed, making it
possible for more attention to be given
and more money spent in the care of
the cattle and the barns and the
handling of the milk.

Cleanliness in City Milk Supplies.

Milk Is one of the most Important
articles of food, and the general
average of carelessness with regard
to it's cleanliness and purity is ap-
palling. Milk is perhaps the most
difficult of the foods to keep absolute
ly clean. It is the food which is given
