fought Johnson in Australia that a

to pieces and Flynn was warned about
this, but instead of following the ad-

That was Just what Jack wanted and

Jim's head his target and there was
not one blow wasted by Johnson. He

Some Unexplained Things About

BIG HIDE CONCERN
OPENS BRANCH HERE
California Concern Takes
Quarters and Begins
Business,

The $1,000, 900 hide and peIt concern
OF a. BrOwnstein, of Los angeles. has
opened a branch in FL Paso at sos
Mills street, with Leo NJ. Purwin in
charge as manager. This firm, success
sors to II. Newmark, the pioneer hide,
pelt and tallOw concern of the Pacific
coast, is said to do 80 percent of the
business on that coast at present.
Mr. Brownstein himself came here,
looked over the territory, saw the field
for such a business and decided TO es-
tablish a branch here to look after
business in New Mexico. west Texas
and northern Mexico. 1t is another
tribute to the strategic advantage Of
Ell PasO as a trade metropolis and its
establishment here will mean the
spending of several thousands of dol
lars a month for hides in this city
and the employment of a considerable
force TO handle them.

RICH MEXICAN IS
BARRED FROM ENTRY

Douglas. Ariz., July 16.-Antonio Q.
Murietta, a wealthy merchant of Ell
Tigrs district was barred from ad-
mission TO the United States after a
sitting of a board of SPECIAL inquiry,
presided over by inspector in charge
Frank W. Heath Of the local immigra-
ton station. Refusal was based upon
the ground that the applicant had been
convicted of smuggling. was known to
be of undesirable character and on &C
count of his criminal tendencies was
likely to become a public charge If
admitted.
Murietta was arrested in Douglas
last winter upon the charge of snug
Cling several thousand dollars worth
of Opals across the line. The opals
were seized at the local office of Wells
Fargo q Co, and the man arrested
when he called for them. He was in
dicted and, when presented in court
entered a plea of guilty. He was fined
800 which he paid.
The Tigre merchant was unwilling
to abide by the decision of the board.
1t is understood that he has taken the
matter up with United States attOr-
ney Morrison.

to cut loose in the ninth and tenth
rounds to stop the fireman. That is
the reason, no doubt, why Jack did not
force the fighting in the earlier
rounds.
His hitting was swift and accuI ate
throughout, while Flynn never had a
chance to land a blow. except when in
a clinch he could shoot an overland
swing 10 the neck or head, which could
not have carried a great deal OF
strength, as johnson always had his
arms partly locked, thus making him
lose the force OF the blows Had Flynn
fought on the defensive he might have
put up a creditable battle, for he is
surely bigger and stronger than ever

FEED QUESTION IS BIG ONE
Possible for Dairy Farmer to Grow
Balanced Rations-His Salvation
Depends on Point.

Molasses is used in many instances
to disguise very low-grade materials,
including weed seeds. Farmers should
buy the molasses and make their own
mixtures. The feed question is a big
one with dairy farmers, but it is not
q serious problem to those who have
their harms filled with good alfalfa
hay, which can be grown successfully
in every county in New Jersey, and
which, ON the average, would not cost
$40 a ton. am strongly opposed to
the purchase of lUw-grade feeds, un-
less the price is in proportion. which,
unfortunately, is not now the case,
as ON the average feeds carrying from
s to ~ per cent protein, and high
percentage of crude fiber, cost per
ton practically the same as feeds
which carry from Is to 40 per cent
protein, with a correspondence high
rate Of digestibility and low percent
age of crude fiber. You could do no
better than to make a strong drive
for high-grade protein feeds, more
especially for use in the dairy. and
also for the larger growth and use ut
legumes by dairy farmers. 1t is pos
sible fer the dairy farmer to grow
balanced rations, or at least to get
along with a very small purchase OF
feeds, says a writer in an exchange
The salvation of the dairy farmer de-
ponds largely upon this point.

TO PROPERLY PACK BUTTER
Study Wants Of Customers ard
Give What ls Desired.
(By w. H. UNDERwOOD.)

(By w. II. ON OE6 WOOO.J
When a farmers wife or daughter
has a sufficient quantity of milk to be
able to sell some butter, she ought by
all means to find out just what sort
of butter people will pay the highest
price for and how the same is pack
ed for sale, and comply with these
conditions. If they do SO they will get
all it is worth.
On Saturday not long since while
I was waiting in the store several
persons brought In butter, and with
the exception of that from two GUS
toners myself and one other), 1t
was all made in large rolls, small rolls
packed in Jars, crooks and pans. Some
was made in round prints and wrap
ped in oil paper, and some of the
large rolls were also wrapped In oil
paper.
The clerk weighed a basket Of eight
pound prints, and they tipped the
scales at six and one-half pounds
only. l asked him what he paid and
he said 10 cents.
I tasted the butter. It was good
and the merchant would have been
glad to pay Is cents, the same as
got, but he said he could not sell it
for more than 10 cents because it'had
a mussy-looking appearance.
If each one of those people would
pay $1.25 for a hrick-shaped mold that
will make an extra pound; SO cents
for a roll of parchment paper seven
and one-half inches wide, tear the pa
per with the aid of ruler into sheets
ten and one-half inches long, dip these
into cold water and wrap each pound
neatly, pack them neatly in clean
box lined with white paper, assure
you that they can then get rs cents
per pound for their butter and the
gain in price will give them a good
many dollars to put into their pocly
cts.
It will not take ten minutes Longer
on churning day to do this, and the
knowledge of putting a first-class
article on the market in first-class
condition will repay in itself.
It is not best to use the oiled pa
per- It is impossible to handle thu
butter without tearing 1t and it makes
the butter look any way but well.

A PENALTY OF AGE

The tendency Of advancing years to
restrict activity and exercise is re-
spcnsible for the constipated condition
Of most elderly people. The wear Of
years impairs the action Of the bow
els and the digestive organs are more
sensitive to the demands upon them
and rebel more quickly. Cathartics
and purgatives are violent and dras-
tic in their action and should not be
used to correct constipation. A mild.
yet positively effective remedy, and
one that is recommended by physi-
clans as we'll as by thousands who
have used it, is the compound Of sim
pie laxative herbs with pepsin pre-
scribed by DR.. w. B. Caldwell over
thirty years ago and now sold by drug
gists everywhere under the name OF
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. DR..
Caldwell wants everyone troubled with
constipation to try Syrup Pepsin and
