Dispatches from Spain give out
the information that a delegation
has gone to Corunna and implored
former president Porhoro Diaz 10
undertake the government of the
country again. If Diaz has kept
posted on matters over there he
will refuse to come back" and be
thankful that he escaped from the
country before turmoil reigned.
Wonder why the commission did
not appeal to the Carnegie peace
conferencel There s a good
chance to demonstrate the theory
chat war can be dispensed with
between nations. Peace has to
exist in the hearts of the people of
a country before one can expect
to put it into operation between

1t is felt that the severest punish

POULTRY OPPORTUNITIES.
The Farm Is Most Conducive to Sue
eessful Poultry Raising.

The foundation upon which all sue
cessful poultry operations rest is CON
stitutiOnal vigor. according to poultry
experts Of the department OF agricul-
ture. Without high degree of health
1t Is utterly impossible to progress in
poultry work, and there is no other
place where conditions are so con
ducive to poultry success as they are
on the farm. The farmer has the ad
vantage of having free range for his
birds, which means an unlimited sup
ply of bugs. insects. green feed and
grit as a food supply
Poultry strongly constituted means
highly fertile eggs and the production
of good. strong chickens. Eggs pro-
duced from fowls that have free range
on the farm hatch better than those
from fowls that do not have that ad-
vantage In feeding the farmer has
the advantage over other poultrymen.

HUERTA HALTS BANK RUN
ProcIaims Holidays to Prevent With

drawals of Deposits.
BY a presidential decree every day
unity the end of the present year is
made a legal holiday in order to check
the run on the banks in Mexico City,
Mex, particularly that on the Bank OF
London and Mexico.
On the PRONUNCIATION of this decree
the Bank of London and Mexico,
which had closed a few hours earlier,
reopened its doors, but refrained from
paying deposits.
Provisional President Huerta says
in the decree he deems such action
necessary to protect the banks until
public confidence is more nearly re-
stored. BY the decree the banks are
absolved from meeting any ObligatiOn
until Jan. 2. 1t applies to all banking
houses, whether a bank of issue or
not
With the exception of the Bank Of
London and Mexico and the Central
bank none has yet taken Vantage
of the decree, and business at the
other institutions is being conducted
as usual Crowds gathered about the
doors of the two banks mentioned,
but there was no disorder. Both banks
are being strongly guarded by police.
The elimination of General Huerta
by Jan. l is the only thing that can
thwart the complete financial wreck
of Mexico, in the opinion of business
men in Mexico City and throughout
the republic.

CUTTING SILAGE CROPS.
A Great Deal Depends Upon Choosing
Of Proper Time.

Of Proper Time.
Corn and various sorghum crops will
most generally be used for silage crops
Corn should be cut for the silo when
the grain has begun to harden There
should still be a sufficient amount OF
green material in the plant to make 1t
pack solidly in the silo. 1t is often
times very difficult to harvest a crop
IN this ideal condition.
The use Of water in filling is almost
a necessity where dried out corn is
placed In the silo. The exact amount
necessary cannot be stated in positive
terms Enough water must be added
so that the material will pack solidly
and pass through the necessary fer.
mentation. The most satisfactory way
to apply this water is by directing q
stream into the blower.
The Kaffir and sorghum should be al
lowed to become well matured like
wise in order to make ideal silage
These crops as a rule remain green
much later in the season, and the pc
riod in which they can be properly
placed in the silo is longer than it is
with corn 1t is especially important
that the sweet sorghum be allowed TO
reach full maturity before being pIac-
ed in the silo. These crops have shown
themselves to be very valuable as 81
lage crops These crops sometimes
become frosted by an unreasonable
frost. It is then necessary to place
them in the silo at once whatever the

spectator to sleep during moving
picture show. Giuseppe Baldino, a
farmer, had attended cinametegraph
and during the show was relieved OF
$40 by Ubaldo Colombo, who was sit
ting next to him. AS Ubaldo spent the
money before he was captured, Bald
ino sued to recover the amount from
the proprietor of the moving picture
show. The court, however, ruled that
since he was asleep when the money
was taken, the proprietor of the show
could not be held responsible for his
loss.

dynamited the fiume of the Bunker
Hill & Sullivan mill, tearing a hole
10 feet wide in one wall and letting
out a vast volume of water. The tor
rent washed out Mckinley avenue for
a distance of 40 feet, but within an
hour the water had been shut on at
the intake.
The dynamiting was done under
cover of the Fourth of July celebration
and the explosion did not at first at

has been erected so that the street
may be used and as the mill was shut
down yesterday no inconvenience was
felt there.
There have been no arrests and II
