COURT WAITS ON CROPS.
Phillipsburg Judge Discharges jury
and Recommends Spring Planting.

Phillipsburg, Kan, April A.-District
Judge W. S. Langmade discharged the
jury upon his own motion, although there
were five or six jury cases scheduled.
None of these cases are particularly
important" said Judge Langmade. and 1
deem the spring planting of more value
to the farmers of Phillips county than the
trial of these cases. Spring planting can
not wait, lawsuits can. To take two weeks

Gentlemen, go back to your farms. We
need more good farmers and more good
farming of the lands we have everywhere.
We really need fewer lawsuits
As all of the jurors were farmers, judge
Langmade's plan was approved by all.

and agreed the judge was right. And so
several lawsuits will not be tried until the
fall term.

HUERTA OUT: BUT WHO WINS?

If it be literally true that General Huerta has
given promise that he will not seek reelection as
President of Mexico, and if that promise is so
definite as to be accepted by this Government, it
may be assumed that the crisis in Mexico is near
end that is the diplomatic crisis that has become
so embarrassing to the United States.
Huerta, retiring will carry with him new re-
alization Of what moral suason means. President
Wilson appealed to the moral sense of the world,
and il has stood with him. Huerta and his bucca-
neering associates sneered because they could not
understand. Likely they never will; but they will
appreciate the effects though unable to under
stand the forces that wrought them.
The greatest obstacle to adjustment has been
Huerta, and the insistence that he promise not
again to seek the presidency. If he withdraws him.
self from the presidential lists it is nominal vic.
tory for the Washington policy: perhaps an actual
victory But time and events must prove the
of the usurpers bona fdes. If Huerta is out, only
to make way for his support of Felix Diaz; and if
the government and the military are to be used to
force Diazs election then it is very possible that
yet more difficult situation may arise. Diaz as

of reprisas against Americans such as could be
expected in such circumstances, night serve to in

However, the first step in the right direction
seems TO have been accomplished Perhaps the
other dangers and complications may yet be avoided
by careful management.

THE REPORT ON NAVY YARDS.

The navy board of inspection for shore stations
has made report to Secretary Daniels which seems,
from the synopsis of its contents published in the
press to leave the naval policy naval stations
very much in the air. A few years ago it was uni
versal understanding that the practical navy men
wished to have the number of yards reduced, and
10 provide them with better equipment Likewise,
il was understood that these experts believed the
great naval stations should be located at the most
important shipping centers available, by reason CT
physical conditions, for that service.
There was understood to be. a general feeling
among the navy people that the minor Southern yards

That sounds excellent; sentimentally, tits. But

Are You Home Hunting?
Il 50. Here AZ Hints TO Help Yoa
By Sophie Irene Loeb

Mr.. Franz Schneider. Jr., sanitarian OF
the Russell Sage Foundation claims
that many headaches and anSemic con-
ditions Of no apparent origin have been
found to come from slight leaks Of
Illuminating gas.
Here are a few general don'ts in the
selection of a place to live; for. after
all. health and happiness depend large
ly on the decision.
Don't put up with dark bedrooms in
the hope Of having fine parlor.
Don't crowd the little children in
rooms together where the ventilation
is questionable. with the advantage OF
being CLOSE to town. Rather choose
outlying districts with airy rooms.
If YOU are leading a sedentary life
at your work choose a place where a
walk is necessary to your car line.
Such compulsory exercise is a boon.
II you are in need OF more air than
your brother of healthy lungs. find a
home where a surface car may bring
You TO your work rather than the sub
way.
Don't put up with narrowing noises
If there is a choice OF quiet, with the
idea that you can ''get used TO IT,.
Don't leave a perfectly healthfHl
neighborhood in order to be close to
friends" 1t is sometimes not good
to be close to friends.
Don't assume a little higher" rent
than YOU are sure you can paw with the
hope OF saving ION the table,
Don't choose more room than you
can conveniently keep clean.
Don't get too far away from park.
and open places where you may take
the children.
