Manufacturer On
 Outlook In Mexico
J. HERBERT FOSTER, BACK IN ABERDEEN, SAYS AMERICAN IN- PREVENTION IS OPPOSED
 MADEIRA AS BAD AS DIAZ.

J. Herbert Foster and Mrs Grace Miller Foster arrived in Meriden Tuesday direct from Vera Cruz Mex leo. Mr. Foster is manager of the Meriden Rubber Planting company in Tula in the state of Vera Cruz and has been there for the past ten years. His last trip to Mexico was in 1905. The plantation is owned by Meriden capital and has been producing rub Der since 1906. The quantity is one of the best in Mexico and is used by the largest dental manufacturing con- cerns in the United States in the prO- duction of their dental goods.
 Speaking of the Mexican political situation MT. Foster says: We have had no disorders or. difficulties in our section of Mexico, but in most of the country districts robberies are common at the present time.
 ttMr. Madeira secured the presidency by promising the people real democ- racy and elections like those which are held in the United States. At the first election in Vera Cruz about turned out The day was a holiday and all saloons were closed in the daytime for the first time in probably fifty years. The voting places were improvised by placing small tables on the sidewalk and no ballot box eS were used but the votes We're piled up on the tables.
 N "When a sudden shower came up the tables were temporarily removed inside the nearest hallway. The suc- cessful candidate was one that was not favored by MT. Madera's adminis- tration so the state legislature annu1l- ed the election, givng as the reason for so doing that so few voters had voted that the election was not rep resentative of public opinion. When the election was held again only about seven per cent. of the voters turned out, the impression being that it was idle to vote for any one not favored by the government. As a result, Vera Cruz city which is a. place of about the size of Meriden, has no le- gal government but is ruled by a mayor provisionally named by the governor of the state and local repre- sentatives of the federal government.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1912-08-08
..This simply duplicates the. con

s.This simply duplicates the. con- ditions existing under the Diaz admin istration as no real elections were ev- CT held while he was president. It will be seen that although MT. Ma dera promised real democracy, he has not yet succeeded in delivering goods. A similar condition prevails in the government of the state of Vera Cruz MT. Madera named a personal friend as provisional governor when he first became president, and then when elections were held the triumph of MT. Madera's candidate was announc- ed after election day although the impression prevails among the ma jority of the population that the of f1cial candidate did not secure 8 ma jority of the votes.
 ."Elecdons are held on Sundays be- cause the people have more leisure time to- attend to them on that day. No serious disorders have occurred excepting in remote country districts.
 eMr. Madeira was the most popu- lar man in Mexico when he became president but the idea in general in Vera Cruz that Orozoo would have easily run Madeira out of Mexico if he had been able 70 import arms from the United States as freely as Madera himself did when he arose against Diaz. As the matter stands now in our part of Mexico the gen eraF public inclineS to support Ma dera not through regard for him per s0nally, but because they believe fur ther changes would not improve the situation but would make it worse.
 '.AS regards American intervention, popular sentiment is strongly against it and will continue to be SO unless the country should be ruined by a long series of civil wars extending through years of time. The pros f~ fr cf - r. is probable that life and property will continue to be insecure in all country districts for some time yet and business in the cities will be dull because of the conditions of the coun- try.
 If Mexico is left alone to work out it's own salvation in the course of time stable conditions will be evolved anew, but | would not undertake to prophecy now whether this is mat ter one or two years or six or eight years. Meantime all foreigners in the country suffer more or less of loss and inconvenience but as yet very few of them have lost their lives. i
 President Taft's proclamation ad- vising Americans to leave Mexico was simply a makeshift and provided no remedy for the difficulties of those who have property interests there The problem is a, difficult one and if we have Taft we are likely to wish that we had Roosevelt and if we have Roosevelt we are likely to wish we had Taft.

PRIZE HENS LAY
 ? EGGS IN 1 DAY. o. Wilson's Champion Hen Brings Record Up to 2O9 Eggs.

r The total number of eggs laid dur ing the thirty-ninth week of the egg laying contest was 1,592. This is about the same yield as the pre- vious week. A number of birds are moulting now, and the yield will be smaller the next few weeks. The largest number of eggs laid by one was accomplished by a pen of Barred Plymouth Rocks owned by s. Couch CT of Morristown. N. J. Next in line for week was a pen of Barred Ply mouth Rocks owned by Robert J.. Walden. of Middlebury, Md. with pens that tied for third credit, a pen of Barred Plymouth Rocks owned by Henry D. Riley of Stafford, Pa, and a pen of white WyaxidotteS owned by sBeulah Farms, F18dnilton, Ont There were two pens that laid twenty-six eggs, a pen of Single Comb Rhode Island Reds, owned by Bro Wilfred -of Quebec, Canada, and a pen of Sin gle Comb White Leghorns owned by FCullencross Farms of South Colunb bia, N. Y. The largest egg laid during the week weighed 2e-100 of pound. This egg was laid by a. Single Comb Rhode Island Red owned by Arthur s. Bartey of Cobalt. Another large egg weighing 18-100 of a. pound was laid by a Black Minorca owned by Powell & Walton of Newchartville, N J. A Single Comb White Leghorn owned by Thomas Baron of Catfforth Eng, laid two eggs in one day. One egg was collected at 8:30 in the morn ing and the other was laid at 4 in the afternoon Both eggs were ex~ actly the same in size, shape and tex ture The champion hen at the con- test laid. only one egg this week. This
 makes her score POS eggs. This hen is a Single Comb Buff Orpington owned by O. Wilson of Carlisle, w Pa.
 The following is the standing of the five Single Comb White Leghorns owned by F. G. Yost of Sayre, Pa. which are now in the lead No. 1, 183 eggs; No. 2, 143; No. 3, 153; No. 147; No. 5, 162. &
