We have absolute faith that the
United States under no circum-

vast majority from executing the

officers here expressed today the be-
lief that the chief reason of the
movement of the troops to the Texas
frontier was to give the public a
chance to view the efficiency Of the
army in quick mobilization. If any

ready to invade Mexico, at the first
necessary cause for action" They
will check any secesslonary move
ments on the part of the people OF
Lower California from the Diaz con-
federation; the troops will prevent
the destruction of American property;
they will patrol the border and pre-
vent filibusterlng, and, finally the
original excuse of mobilization-prac-
tice maneuvers-will be engaged in
by both land and sea forces.
The president makes no further
attempt to cloak the army's activity
under the term maneuvers. 1t Is adj
mitted that the army of mobilization
soon may become an army of pacitl-
cation, and that the forces are gath
ering in Arizona, California and
Texas to aid President Diaz in sup
pressing the Mexican insurrection.
The army will not hesitate to In
wade Mexico If 1t be deemed neces-
sary to maintain the Diaz regime.
A plan whereby the American and

million dollars was considered a con-
servative estimate today of the loss
caused by floods which have prevailed
in nearly every section of the state
With light showers predicted for to-
night, and many of the larger
streams still flowing over their banks
this estimat may fall short Of the
actual loss.
News from Santa Barbara today
said that the damage in that county
would exceed $1,000,0OO. In the
Santa Maria district over 1000 acres
have been devastated of crops. The
10000 gallon reserv ir of the Union
Oil company is complete werck.
Los Angeles and vicinity has suf-
fered to the extent of $250,000. The
loss to alfalfa and garden truck
alone is placed at 100000. 1t was
feared today that SHOWS falling in the
mountains would cause the Los An
geles river to overflow the city's bot
tom lands. Heavy damage was inflict-
ed on bridges Of the Salt Lake rail-
road by the San Gabriel river.

| Now as the apple breathes in the oxy.
gen of the air. and breathes out car.
bonic acid, the latter will be absorbed
by the caustic solution while water
will rise in the jar to fill the space
made vacant by the removal of the
oxygen. Finally the water will fill
about one-fifth of the air space orig
inally present and remain stationary.
because the oxygen is all used.
| Respiration. whether in animals or
in plants. causes a destruction of mat
ter in the cells much like the destruc-
tion of wood in a stove, and the rate
at which this destruction goes on can
be measured by determining the
amount of carbonic acid that is
breathed out in given length Of
time.
Fruit, after having been picked from
the tree is in the condition of a starv-
ing animal. Its cells still keep up res
piration with nothing in the way of
food to make good the losses produced
| by the action. Since apples and other
fruits have no body heat to maintain,
the breathing process is not SO active
as in animals. and they may last
months after being picked from the
tree. Yet there is steady. contin-
uous loss In weight as the weeks go
| by. although the fruit is sound and
firm.
Respiration is partly chemical re-
action. and in apples. like most chem
ical solutions in the laboratory, it
grows more rapid as the fruit becomes
warmer. and slowed down when the
fruit is cooled.
1t is frequently the case that warm
days with temperatures of 10 degrees
occur late in the fall, and sometimes
continue for a considerable period.
Fancy apples intended for long keep
ing in cold storage should be cooled
as soon as possible and kept cold. The
breathing process is at the expense of
cell contents and must weaken the
keeping qualities as it goes on. And
this destructive action>is from four to
six times as fast out of cold storage
as inside it.
Another fact in connection with the
respiration is important. 1t is not
stopped in cold storage. but simply
slowed. Apples cannot be kept In
definitely, but kept about twice as long
in cold storage as in cool cellar.

The taking up of oxygen from the
air can also be readily shown by the
following interesting experiment.
In large basin partially filled with
water set small support on which
is placed an apple and small open
dish containing solution of caustic

touch the water nor the caustic solu-
tion. Cover the support and its con-
tents by large bell glass or wide jar
