Bishop John T. Written has ordered

go into the dairy business on a larger
scale than ever before People are just
beginning TO realize the possibilities of
the country as an agricultural and
dairy region, but every year shows
something new along these lines, as
farmers experiment and test the soil
with regard to its capacity for produc-
ton. Sorghum, wheat, and buckWheat
have lately been proven 10 be among
the surest farm products.
The business outlook is very dun at
present owing to the destruction of the
local sawmill and to the shutting down
of the various large enterprises of Col.
Greene, which have been operating in
this section of Mexico. With abundant
crops, however the people have no
cause TO be alarmed at the outlook for
the future.
WAR SCARE OF LITTLE MOMENT.
The wars and rumors of wars of
which so much has been said lately in
connection with this country have
caused little or no uneasiness in this
colony, as all realize clearly the fact
that the present efficient administra-
ton is amply able 10 cope with any
conditions which are likely to arise in
this republic. 1t is known. too, that
the so-called revolution" IL IN reality
. hairbrained scheme of a few disaf-
fected natives whose past life has been
such that they feel safer in the United
States than in their own country. They
have succeeded in stirring up u few
of the poverty stricken poems by hold
ing out to them the hope of acquiring
riches as a result of the footing of the
towns they were to capture. but there
was never a ghost of show for them
to succeed in overturning the govern
ment
Some have feared that the present
movement would be directed particu-
larly against foreigners, as there has
been some dissatisfaction manifested
toward them In q number OF instances.
1t is fact that In many instances
Americans coming to this country have
acted very unwisely and have COM
mitted acts which would not have been
allowed to go unpublished IN any other
civilized country IN the world, but
owing TO the cordial relations existing
between the two nations, these acts
have been allowed to pass unpublished.
A very prolific cause for bitterness is
to be found in the lax morals of a
large proportion OF the Americans COM
ing TO this country many OF whom dare
not show themselves in their own
land and 1t could hardly be expected
that the natives would look upon the
Dissertation of their homes with any
great degree of liberation.
Any respectable person of whatever
nationality Is, and doubtless always
viii be, welcome and his investments
will be safoguarded here just as In any
other enlightened nation.
