CL|PPERTON ISLAND
OWNERSHIP IN DISPUTE

Washington. Aug. 22.-The POSSIBLE
ity Of IA final decision az to the own
ership Of Clipperton island In the Pa
cific ocean has aroused considerable
interest here, in view of the expected
completion of the Panama canal by
1915. The island In I'm dispute between
France and Mexico. Italy. it was an
nounced today. has indicated a will
ingness to act as arbitrator. Should
the decision be favorable to France 1t
would mean another station in the line
Of that governments position around
tho world.
Giipperton island lies go miles
southeast of the harbor of Acapulco,
Mex. France claims the island not
only on the ground that it was discov-
cred BY a French captain two CEN
turtles ago. but also because formal
possession Of 1t was taken by a
French naval officer sent out for the
purpose In 1858. Mexico has exer-
cised some authority over the phos-
phate industry, and ut one time ousted
an American company from the island
although 1t does not appear on just
what ground her contentious rest.

MAKING MONEY FAST
ENOUGH"

A young farmer recently went into
a real estate office in the Northwest
and listed his farm for sale, remarking
to the land agent that he was mot
making money enough" After he
had gone the agent did some think
ing and little figuring, with this
result: When the young man came to
his claim eight years ago, he had his
hands and perhaps a few hundred
dollars. He did not have enough mon
ey to carry his business. He had to
90 slow, save every cent and wait for
better times before he could have
things to his liking. So it is fair to
say that he started at the bottom. He

seven or eight horses for quite q
while. The structure Is 26x32 feet
square, IL feet to the caves and 26 to

the large door shown in the gable and
feeding is done from above, through
chutes, one for each stall. However,
a hole may be left over driveway, for
dropping hay down If you desire. The
driveway is ample in size for gather.
