PROTECTING DRINKING WATER
CONCRETE WELL PLATFORMS
\ CONDUCIVE TO HEALTH

Even with an abundance Of fresh
air and wholesome food, the health of
a country family is largely dependent
on the purity of dts drinking water.
Since the principal source Of farm
water supply is the bored or dug well,
the purity of the&water is determined
almost entirely by the ability of the
we'll curbing and cover to keep out
communicating surface water. If the
well is curbed near the top with solid
concrete Cor with blocksNor bricks laid
in Portland cement mortar) and is
covered with a concrete platform, the
healthfulness of the water is practic-
ally assured. 49,

Other Plans Of Making Platform.
Some persons prefer to make con-
crete well platforms in 2 pieces with
the division line through the center
of the pump opening. BY this means
the pump barrel and stock are easily
Joined and inspection is readily pro-
yided for. In other cases where the
pump and stock can be Joined togeth-
err and lowered into the well as 1
piece, the concrete. platform (rernov-
able) lis made as q unit and with a
single opening merely large enough to
receive the pump stock.
Concrete well platforms built ac-
.cording to these methods can be de-
pended on to protect the well from
mice, vermin and scrubwater. In pure
water there is health.

Mexico City, Aug l8.-President
Wilson's message to President Huerta
is now in the possession of the gov

two conferences with John Lind, Presi-
dent Wilson's special representative
in Mexico, came to the conclusion with
the consent of President Huerta, that
the simplest way to an end was to ac-

1t would appear now thar as the
message has been in the possession
of the government since 2'aursday

yet been announced, there Is q good
chance for its acceptance.

Washington Aug. 1S.-The Huerta
government, through conferences be-
tween John Lind, President Wilson'S
personal representative, and Foreign
Minister Gamboa, now knows the
viewpoint Of the United States and its
desire for only a peaceful and friendly
solution of Mexico's troubles. The
formal communication will be trans

powers here Monday.
1t is expected in diplomatic circles
that President Huerta will formally

even setting the date. 1t is regarded
as possible that the constitutionalists

SUI LZER IS REBUFFED
LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR GLTNN
REFUSES TO TEST CLAIM
IN COURT.
WILL NOT CALL OUT TROOPS
Claimant Demands AbdlcatIon, Execu-
tive Asks for Suit, and Both Are
Denled-May Involve Federal Gov
ernment.

Albany, N. Y, Aug. 1S.--William H.
Suffers plan to invoke the arbitrament
of the courts on the question whether
he or Martin H. Glynn is now the law
full governor of New York was check
mated on Friday by the lieuteant gov
ernor.
Replying to a formal proposal by the
impeached executive to submit the Is
sue to adjudication on an agreed state
ment of facts, Mr.. Glynn declared 1t
was beyond his power to barter away
any of the functions attaching to the
office in which l am placed by your i'm
peachment."
ANY attempt on my part to do 30"
he said, "or to stipulate method by
which it might be done, would proper
ly place me in the position you now oc-
cupy-that of being impeached for
malfeasance in Office"
Mr.. Glynn declared further that he
proposed to perform every function of
the Office of governor except in so far
as l am restrained by your illegal ac-
tion or by physical force"
The announcement Of the lieutenant
governors policy came late at night
and followed negotiations between the
respective counsel of the two men In
the afternoon, which 1t was then sup
posed had resulted in a virtual agree
ment to take the case to the court of
appeals.
The letter was delivered to Mr.. Sui
ger at the executive mansion.
Subsequently horde of irate Muir
ply followers suggested, through their
spokesman, that Mr.. Glynn turn out
regiment of the National Guard, which
is ready to obey his commands, and
forcibly wrest the scepter of govern
ment from Mr.. Sulzer.
Again Mr.. Glynn shook his head.
1t is the purpose of Mr.. Suffers
counsel, who contend that indictments
for high treason against Tammany Boss
Murphy and his lieutenants will be
asked for, to maintain before the court
of Impeachment that Tammany Hall
coercion brought about the impeach-
ment of Mr.. SulZer.
The serious condition of Mrs. Sulzer
necessitated the recall Of DR.. Robert
Abrahams from New York. No official
bulletin was forthcoming from the ex-
ecutive mansion concerning Mrs. Sui
zer, but an afternoon bulletin, dictated
by DR.. Abrahams after he had learned
Of the patients condition over the tel
phone, stated that she was still in a
precarious condition" with tempera-
ture of 102 and pulse 11S.
Washington, Aug. 1S-The federal
government soon may be confronted
with the problem of determining
whom it will recognize as governor of
New York.
Under the Dick law, by which the
National Guard enjoys government
aid, acquisitions for arms, ammunition,
supplies and transportation must be
approved by the governor.

VIEWS OF PRESIDENT
WILSON GIVES HIS IDEAS ON
RURAL CREDITS.
Special Machinery Of a Distinct Meth
ed Must Be Provided to Help
Farmers In Need.

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE follow
ing statement was issued at the
White House embodying the views of
President Wilson on rural credits:
Again and again during the dis
cussioin of the currency bill it has
been urged that special provision
should be made in it for the facilitat-
ing of such credits of the farmers of
the country who stand in need of
agricultural credits as distinguished
from ordinary commercial and indus
trial credits. Such proposals were
could only be imperfectly provided
for in such measure. The scope and
character of the bill, its immediate
and chief purpose could not be made
to reach as far as the special inter
ests of the farmer require.
Special machinery of distinct
system of banking must be provided
for II rural credits are to be success
fully and adequately supplied. A gov
ernment commission is now in Eu-
rope studying the interesting and
highly successful methods which have
been employed in several countries
Of the old world and its report will
be made to congress at it's regular
session next winter. 1t is confidently
to be expected that the congress will
at that session act upon the recon-
mendations of that report and estab-
lish complete and adequate system
of rural credits There Is no subject
more important to the welfare and
industrial development Of the United
States; there Is no reform in which
l would myself seek a greater honor
or privilege to take part, because l
should feel that 1t was a service to
the old country of the first magnitude
and significance. 1t should have ac-
companied and gone hand in hand
with reform Of our banking and cur
rency system If we had been ready
to act wisely and with full knowledge
of what we were about"
