NIXON PAPER
MILL BURNED
EARLY TODAY

One brick building, one frame build.
ing and a barn. at the Nixon paper
mill, were burned to the ground about
two-thirty o'clock this morning, caus-
ing loss OF probably $4,000. The
office building was partially destroy
ed, while the firemen were only able
by the greatest effort to save two
other large brick buildings. In which
valuable machinery was located. which
were in flames when the department
arrived. Property to the value OF
$4,000 was threatened.
Considering the tremendous head
way which the flames had gained be-
fore the alarm was sent in, Chief Ed
Miller, believes the fire to be of in.
cendiary origin. There were no ma
chinery, supplies or livestock in any
of the buildings destroyed. Some
italian railroad workers were in one
building but were warned in time to
escape.
There were several narrow escapes
from death on the part of the firemen,
who were nearly caught by falling
walls. The brilliant flames attracted
many people to the scene.
Chief Miller could not state what
insurance was carried on the building.
and no member of the firm owning
the mill was present. What valuable
books or supplies were in the office
building will not be known until a
thorough investigation has been made.

Declares Every Farm Should

strated; spraying could be studied,
different methods Of planting and OF
tilling and of growing could be illus
trated; small breeding plots could be

ted; perhaps a small fish pond could
be established and many other tests
could be made. / could be made a
proving yard and collecting yard for
the various problems that arise In the
dren would be interested on their own
account to try out.
1T should be Just as much Of a
farm establishment to provide such a
side lot as to erect a milk house or
any other accessory of a farm. |
should incorporate this yard into the
school system of the district.
The teacher in every school should
have map of these test yards and
should set the children problems that
are to be worked out on them: and
from these yards reports should go
back to the school. Exhibitions could
be held at different times and the
school could be provided with flowers
and and specimens for study. When
the school is let out in the afternoons
the children usually drop the school
work as soon as possible. My purpose
is, to encourage them to take the
school thought with them and plant it
in the garden.
"A garden yard of his kind would
become an outdoor room in which all
kinds of interesting things would in
time be collected. It could set many
new ideas going in every country dis.
trict. 1t would soon become the most
interesting nook on the farm. At q
ed what could be done to interest
the young people in their club. ] re.
piled that every member of the club
ought first to interest the young PEG
pie intellectually in the farm. and
that this could be done through a
home school garden of the kind save
just suggested.
THE children are the most import
ant product of the farm, and they
should be encouraged and have facili
ties on the farm itself to become ia
miliar with simple problems and tc
have their mainds opened to lot Of
new things that would hold their sym.
Ipathy and affection. My contention
| is that the farmer can by no means
escape his responsibility in the devel
lopment of better country life. He
must express this responsibility large
| ly in the better education and train
| ing of his children. He can not ex
pect to educate his children effective
ly unless he has an establishment fol
the purpose.

Americans were not the. first people
to adopt the eagle as the emblem Of q
nation. The eagle has been favorite
with many peoples. and his heraldic
history goes away back to the morning
time Of history. The standard Of the
eagle was borne by the Persians as
far back as the time Of the battle Of
Cunaxa. b. C. 4O1. The Romans car
ried gold. silver and ivory eagles as
standards. Charlemagne added the
second head to the eagle for his arms.

restless with patrols constantly break.
ing up crowds and students preparing
for demonstrations for tomorrow
Many alarming stories were In general
circulation today and as result the
calm that followed the announcement
of peace between Madero and Diaz
was dissipated.. Crowds besieged the
newspaper offices as soon as it be-
came known that Gen. Figueroa had
begun his march upon the capital. OF
ficers kept them moving but as soon
as dispersed they gathered again. Rev.
olutionists were stirred by news that
Gen. Reyes had reached Havana.
A gunboat was dispatched to meet
him several days ago and the insured
to sympathizers excitedly discussed
rumors that a military dictatorship
was to be proclaimed with Reyes the
ruler of the new Mexico.
1t was also rumored that Diaz was
dying and that only his indominitable
will was keeping him alive.
Among the disorderly street throngs
wild curses were yelled at members OF
the chamber of deputies who last
night refused to pass the bill freeing
political prisoners and put the meas
ure in the hands of the committe
which means that it will be indefinit
ely tabled.
Maderos friends among the popu
lace were further aroused by newpa
per charges that there is plot tc
assassinate Madero in this city. They
openly accuse both Diaz's supporters
and former members of the cabinet Of
being involved. Gen. Reyes was men
