DEsrRUcrIvh ROOD IN MEXICO.
hien, Cattle ana Mills Swept Away by
Overlooking River.

Mexico City.-A terrible flood has
visited the Jamiltepec district in the
State of Oaxaca. Sugar plantations
and mills have been destroyed, hun
dreds of head of cattle have been
killed and scores of farm laborers
have lost their lives in the waters.
The scene of this inundation is in
the southern part of the republic,
many miles from Monterey and Ia
maulipas. The Atoyac River over
flowed its banks and swept miles of a
rich country with devastating force.
The Jamiltepec district is one of the
richest on the Pacific Coast, and it is
said that 100000 persons will suffer
from this most recent flood, owing to
the great area of land laid waste.
The initial overflow of the Atoyac
River was caused by a %cloudburst.

of battle-one country, one people,
one flag.

The Bathgate Pink Paper very
wisely says: 1t is a pretty blind man
indeed who does not see that there
must be radical changes made in the
method of farming and nature OF
product in this Red River Valley of
ours. Wheat alone can not be look
ed to in the future to bring about
and maintain prosperous condition.
The wheat farmer will hesitate to
change to cattle raising and dairying
because it is all year work. 1t is
not what he is used to, but it gives
greatest promise at the present time
Of relief in a financial way. Those
who have MIXED COWS and sold their
butter fat to the creameries are, as
a general thing, pleased with the re-
suits. 1t brings ready money at all
seasons of the year; it necessitates
the production of grasses, corn and
other fodder products, thus fitting
the land for the production of wheat
in abundant yield where it Is sown.
Glover is somewhat in the experiment
tai stage and hog feed of all kinds
is too high to make pork raising
just at present, give promise of GER
tain success. By this it is not meant
that more or less hogs should not be
produced on every farm, for there is
a certain amount Of feed for them
which would go to waste if they do
not consume it, but extensive pro-
duction is Of doubtful promise. If
clover becomes a certain crop and
corn results continue to be favor
able the conditions will be changed,
but under present conditions the COW
offers the surest relief to the farmer
who feels that he must make chan
ges in, his methods and diversity.
The price of butter fat, from % to-
80 cents per pound, has caused an
appreciation ! in the price Of good
mich: cows, but. not at all to the.
prohibitive point when it is taken.
into consideration that a good cow
will produce from s5s to so dollars
worth of butter fat in q year, to say
nothing Of the .by-product which is
excellent food for calves and swine.
We predict that much more care and
attention will be given in the near
future to breeding of cattle and es-s
pecially to mich strains or breeds.
with very satisfactory results to the
state at large.

FEAR OF CENTRALIZED GOV
ERNNIENT. 49,.

, The, New York Sun. speculates on
the. fact that recently certain emf
nent citizens Of Massachusetts, sent
petition to the Navy Department
praying the secretary to instruct the
officers Of warships to enforce the IL
quor and Sabbath laws OF their COM
monwealth, which apparently their
own authorities were unable to do.
Only a short time before this a res
ident of the same state had appealed
to the president to pardon a man
convicted of crime in the Massachu-
sets courts. Now, band of earnest
women in Ohio has determined to
assault the president in behalf Of q
plan for the punishment of wife de-
serters, whom they would have shot
by the national soldiery.
Ridiculous as this scheme is, it be-
trays again the complete ascendency
Of the federal government and pow
er in the opinions of large num-
Der of respectable persons. That
the state and town governments
should be held responsible for the
enforcement of their own laws and
ordinances is suggestion that
come as a revolutionary surprise to
a great many entirely worthy men
and women. An insistent and vigor-
Gus campaign for the extension of
federal activities has resulted in the
eclipse of local government in the
minds of all except few reaction
aries. Your proud and independ-
emit American is pretty apt to expect
the national government to tie his
shoe slaces and send man to mend
the spring in his storm door.
Yet it is improbable that the
states will disappear entirely. They
furnish many excuses for fat Offices,
and these are not to. be lightly
thrown away

DRIVING A. NAIL.
More to II Than. Simply Hammering It
Into the Mood. X

More to II Than Simply Hammerins II
Into the Mood. X
One who thinks that the driving Of a
nail consists simply in getting the
whole length of 1t out Of sight has
little conception Of the real nature OF
the operation, says the Scientific Amer
lean. A nail driven by an expert will
often hold several times as much as
one i'll driven, while, too, it is often
made to draw the parts into place. IT
you have ever watched a mechanic
driving nails you have doubtless noted
that he rarely drives one at right
angles with the face of the work.
There is reason for this. Suppose that
he is mailing the "sheeting" on the
frame of building and desires to
draw the board down tightly against
the one be:ow it. He points the nall
downward, and a few we'll considered
blows at the last produce the desired
effect. If the board is bent edgewise, so
that much force is required, probably
he will start the nail In the upper edge
pointing very sharply downward.
Again, two nails driven in board at
different angles will hold it in place
much more firmly than the same nails
would If they were driven at right
angles with the face Of the board.
Did you ever notice that in driving
a nail in very hard wood one man will
do it successfully, while another sue
ceeds only in doubling the nail up be-
fore the point has fairly entered the
wood? The difference lies in the fact
that the expert strikes the nail fairly
and not too hard, ''coaxing" 1t ip,
while the other strikes too hard and
with indirection. 1t may be properly
mentioned right here that In driving
a nail into very hard wood it is usual
" profitable to dip the end in oil or
grease. This will not sensibly inter-
fere with the holding qualities OF the
nail, while it will be found to very
materially facilitate It's driving.

One housewife in this town doesn't
know anything about the servant prob

because Of her brightness and mag
