WARSHIPS WILL STAY
No Attention Will Be Paid to Gen.
Huerta's Wishes.

Washington, Sept. 1S-American
battleships probably will remain in
Mexican waters despite Gen. Huerta' S
declaration that they will be unwel-
come after another month. There
was no official expression of this gov
ernment's attitude today, but it was
plainly indicated that the United
States will keep its vessels off the
Mexican Pacific coast and Atlantic
coast as long as the present insecur-
ity of Americans warrants.
1t was pointed out that in inter-
national law the United States clearly
has a right to protect its citizens in a
foreign country where internal dis
orders prevail and to that end may
dispatch warshipS to ports where
American interests demand protec-
ton. Within the last year American
ships also have been dispatched on
such missions to ports in Nicaragua,
Venezuela and the Dominican repub
lie, where revolution or threatened re-
volt made Americans apprehensive of
their interests.
Visits from vessels of the Asiatic
fleet have Gained the fears of Ameri-
cans in the Chinese revolutionary dis
tricts. 1t was pointed out today that
American warships in Mexican waters
would continue to adhere strictly to
the injunction of President Huerta
not to entail an attack upon the dig
nifty and sovereignty of Mexico" but
further than that it is not likely that
the Wilson administration will accept
dictation from Huerta as to the cir
cumstances in which American ves-
sells may lie off the Mexican coast.

ROUND BOTTOM BUCKET
1t Is Recommended as a Protection
Against Fire.

Washington, Sept. 1S.-While casting
no aspersions on the ''old oaken buck
et' of song, the department of asri-
culture today issued a call to farmers
and owners of country places to estab
lish in their affections the round bot
toned bucket" as a guarantee against
fire.
The approach of winter when pumps
and water taps freeze inspired the de-
partment to urge the installation of
such fire protection.
Every household should be equipped
with fire bucket says the depart
ment experts, provided with a cover,
filled with water and used for no other
purpose. The best type of bucket is
one with rounded bottom, which pre-
vents its sitting on the floor and SO
makes it useless for ordinary house
hold work. One such bucket, at least,
should be provided on every floor of
the house or barn They should be 10
Gated near the stairs or entrance of
buildings SO that those rushing in from
the outside or starting for the stairs
can get them without delay
To overcome the danger of freezing
the experts advocate the addition to
each bucket of water of a little more
than two pounds of fused calcium
chloride. This they say will prevent
freezing at Temperatures above Zero

PLANNING A FIGHT.
Miners and Operators Will Lock Horns
i'm Colorado.

Trinidad, Col, Sept. 1S.-Oficials of
the Miners union and operators busted
themselves today considering plans to
meet the situation that promises to de-
velop with the calling of a proposed
strike next Tuesday. the date fixed by
the United Mine Workers of America
convention of district No. 10, in the
vote taken late yesterday. The de-
mands of the men as set forth in the
strike resolution are:
Recognition of the union; a 10 per
cent wage advance based on tonnage
rates; 10 per cent wage advance for
coke oven workers; an eight hour day
for all classes of labor in mines and
coke ovens; pay for all dead work.
Check weighmen at all mines,
The right to trade at any store, to
select their own boarding place and
choose their own physician.
Enforcement of the mining laws of
Colorado.
Abolition of the guard system.
Miners officials stated today that the
strike order when issued, probably will
be directed only to men employed in
the southern Colorado fields of Las
Animas, Huerfano and Fremont coun-
ties but that eventually it will be eX-
tended to all mines of district Is, COM
prising the states of Colorado, Utah and

AN OLD RECIPE
To DARKEN HAIR
Sage Tea and Su1pher Turns
Gray, Faded Hair Dark
and Glossy.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and sulphur, properly compound
ed brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streak
ed or gray: also ends dandruff, itch
ing scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at nome, which is
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy" You will get a
large bottle for about so cents. Every
body uses this old, famous recipe, be-
cause no one can possibly tell that
you darkened your hair, as it does
it so naturally and evenly. You
dampen a sponge or soft brush with
it and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at a time; by
morning the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years younger.

GIVES MILK WARNING.
Parsons Epidemic Caused by Neglect
of Dairymen.

Parsons dairymen rinsed their milk
bottles in cold water, there was a
typhoid fever epidemic and the board
of health has found that 25 cases of
sickness We're directly traceable to the
careless milk peddlers The trouble is
all over now, but the Parsons expert
ence has caused a note of warning from
the board of health and a list of rules
ana plans and specifications about the
care of milk bottles.
1t is stated by DR.. ]. J. Sippey. state
epidemiologist. that the trouble in Par
sons was due almost entirely to the
failure of the milkmen to properly
sterilize and wash their milk bottles,
AS result of the failure of the dairy
men, % cases of typhoid fever develop
ed and germs were scattered all over
the town. At present the situation is
thought to be we'll under control. but
hereafter the milkmen are urged to
sterilize their bottles after washing

CALL FOR Irvine BIDS
Uncle Sam Wants 100000 Pounds
for the PostOffices.

Washington, Sept. 1s.-Some idea of
the amount of mail handled by the
postoffice department and the energy
required to prepare it properly for de-
livery is conveyed in a call issued to-
day by Postmaster General BurleSon
for bids for 1900. 900 pounds of Irvine
with which to tie up letters
That even this vast amount may not
be sufficient is indicated by the added
appeal that inventors of substitute ty-
ing devices enter the competition for
the material las it may be required
by the postal service during the re-
mainder of the year ending June 80,
1914"
This is what the proposed contract
means said an official of a statistical
turn of mind. today. 1T would be a
simple ma tier to tie up old mother
earth with the amount of string we are
to get; we might stretch a communi-
eating link to one of the planets

ings, was the fire near Twentieth and
Adams streets last night when a barn
and garage belonging to T. w. Tnomp-
son burned with a Ford auto and
several sets of harness. The loss in
that fire alone was estimated at
S1.100.
There have been only five calls dur
ing the month in which no damag e
INsulted- One of them was from
burning trash and rubbish. The
other four were from various causes
in which no damage was shown.
During the three summer months
the aggregate property loss of s15.-
6S7.3S is divided between buildings,
S7.056.65, and contents, SS,620.73.
The summer has been usual for
the large number of alarms that have
been turned in, hut notwithstanding,
with a few exceptions, the actual loss
to propert'- has been exceptionally
light Much credit is due to the man
ner in which the fire chief enforced
the city ordinances against careless
ness in burning trash and rubbish
during the dry season when a small
fire in somebody's back yard. if it
escaped, might have occasioned
heavy loss of property.

WATER FOR CROPS
Sheet Water Makes Pumping
for Irrigation Practical.
Special Crops Increase Earn
ings of Soil When Watered.

H. NJ Cotterell, agricultural commits
Sioner of the Rock Island Lines has
been making an investigation of the
physical conditions of Kansas relative
to the possibilities of irrigation. He
publishes in the Southwest Trail, a
monthly publications:
One acre in twenty-six in Kansas is
underlaid with sheet water at a depth
that makes irrigation by pumping
practical. Hundreds of thousands of
acres in Kansas can be irrigated by
pumping only eight to fifteen feet.
Where water is abundant it is practical
BILE to raise water fifty feet, using dis
tillate for fuel, to irrigate alfalfa. 1t
often pays with this cheap fuel to raise
water 200 feet to irrigate special crops
like berries and celery. No careful in
vestigation has been made of the wa
ter supply of Oklahoma, but it is prob
a bic that there is a great an area that
can be irrigated by pumping there
is in Kansas. There is much land in
Eastern Colorado and in Eastern New
Mexico adapted to irrigation by pump
ing.
Kansas farmers get an average YEAR
ly return of SO an acre from corn and
$11 an acre from wheat Irrigated land
will produce from 5000 to $500 an acre
a year in special crops and $50 an acre
and upward from alfalfa. It takes
about so acres of wheat in Kansas to
rigation will yield a carload from one
to two acres
With good machinery tWenty-eight
gallons of distillate are required in
gas engine to raise enough water fifty
feet to cover one acre to a depth of one
foot. Dfstillate costs cents a gallon
In car lots in many of the districts
where water is available for irriga ton.
1rrigators use during the season water
sumclent to cover the land from one to
three feet in depth, the amount de-
pending on the crop and the rainfall.
With the largest quantity of water used
the cost of pumping the water is only a
small part of the returns secured by
irrigation. Near cities 1t is often
cheaper to pump with electricity than
with distillate.
In both Kansas and Oklahoma good
farm land has reached such a price
that the returns from the investment
are no higher with ordinary farming
than those from farm lands in states
east On this account the growth in
population is a a standstill, as there
are no special attractions for land buy
erS.
The next great movement of home
seekers to these two states will be to
lands irrigated by water secured by
pumping. With the right cooperation
of land owners and the business men of
the towns in the districts that have the
water supply, this movement of set
tiers into Kansas and Okla homa can be
made large and can be started quickly.
The lands in Kansas and in Okla
homa that can be irrigated will give as
great returns as any irrigated lands in
the world. They are close to many
large market centerS. They have am
pie transportation facilities and the
communities have the schools churches
neighbors and social advantages that
are demanded by the most desirable
class of homeseekers.

Washington. Sept. 1s.-As an indirect ap-
peal Tor funds for the relief of the suf-
fer1ng thousands in Bulgaria the Red
cross today made public a letter 1t had
received from Lieutenant General Nelson
A Miles in which the retired army officer
portrays in graphic language the horrors

vice and absence of medical stores are
among the calamities the Bulgarian peo-
pie are facing.
In one field General Miles declared, he
saw four thousand wounded men lying
without shelter from the sun or rain.

Miles, and no more urgent appeal was
ever made to the generous human spirit
of America than the one now made to

Money
Thrown Away

Every time you buy some
thing carelessly or foolishly
the chances are that at least
part of your expenditure is
thrown away.
If you pay more for some
thing than it is worth, the
extra amount is practically
thrown away.
If you buy something that,
through haste or carelessness,
is not at all suitable, a large
part of the money rightfully
may be said to have been
thrown away.
In all the varied eXpendi-
lures you make, the more
nearly you understand what
it is that you require, where
YOU can buy it most conven-
iently and what the value
should be, the more nearly
you approach satisfaction and
economy.
With the wealth of infor-
nation and suggestion always
before you in the advertise
ments of this and other good
newspapers, it is possible
practically to eliminate the
wasteful and unnecessary hab-
it of throwing away your
money.
