CHARGE ON THE COMMUNITY
Care of Those Afflicted With Tubercu-
losis Plainly a Drag on the
General Welfare.

DR.. II. L. Barnes, superintendent of
the Rhode Island state sanatorium,
has recently demonstrated by some
interesting studies of patients dis
charged as apparently cured" from
that institution, that sanatorium is
a sound investment for any state or
city. The gross earnings of ITO ex-
patients obtained in 1911 amounted to
s102,752. and those of 211 cases in
1912 to S112,021. By applying the
same average earnings to all ex-pa-
tients of the sanatorium living in 1911
and 1912. DR.. Barnes concludes that
their income in these two years was
1851 900. This sum is more than three
times the cost of maintenance of the
sanatorium, including interest at 4
per cent. on the original investment
and depreciation charges. DR.. Barnes
concludes, however, while institu-
tons for the cure of tuberculosis are
good investments, there is good rea-
son for thinking that institutions for
the isolation of far advanced cases
would be still better investments"

HUERTA RESIGNS JOB
PEDRO LASCURAlN TO SERVE AS
PROVISIONAL PRESIDENT.
Fires by Instruction and Peace
Is Desired.

Ell Paso, Tex, April General
Huerta agreed Thursday to the nam
ing of Pedro Lascurain as provisional
president to satisfy all factions in the
Mexican melee, said advices received
here directly from the national cap
ital. Lascurain will serve out the
uncompleted term of the late Presi-
dent Madero.
AS minister of exterior relations in
Madero's former cabinet, Lascurain is
entitled to serve as next in line, in
view of the deaths OF Madero and
Vice-President SuareZ. The Huerta
cabinet will be retained by the COM
promise.
This arrangement, it is said, has
been offered to the Constitutionalists,
now fighting the Huerta government in
northern Mexico.
The decision of the present pro-
visional president is said to have been
occasional by the recent uprising of
Zapata in the south, which places the
Huerta forces between two fires.

CANADA WINS AGAIN
THE COLORADO SILVER TROPHY
FOR OATS WON A SECOND
TIME BY CANADA.

The most recent achievement Of
Canada's West is winning for the sec
ond time the magnificent 81 500 silver
trophy awarded by the State of Colo
RADIO for the best peck of oats. At
Columbus. Ohio, in 1911, ]. c. Hill &
Sons of Lioydminster, Saskatchewan,
placed a peck of oats grown on their
farm in competition, with oats from
every part of the world. The Judges
had no difficulty in deciding. and the
award was given to the Saskatchewan
grown oats. In 1912, the Corn EXPO
sition had no exhibition, and our Ca
madam friends, although ready for a
In 1913, the exhibition of the Society
was held at Columbus, S. c., and it is
said of it that it was one of the best
yet held. At this exhibition, which
comprised corn and all the smaller
grains, Hill G. Sons of Lloydminster
had On exhibition for the contest an
other peck CT oats grown on their
Saskatchewan farm, in 1912. There
was no trouble for the judges, no time
necessarily lost in reaching decision,
Hill & Sons won, and for the second
time their name win appear on the
crest of the cup. The third space will
doubtless be occupied by their name,
and then this splendid trophy viii be
theirs.
During the past few years Western
Canada grains-wheat, oats, barley and
flax-have been in competition with
grains from all other countries, and in
every case their superiority has been
shown. 1t is not only in oats, but it
is in wheat, in barley and in fax, that
Canada more than holds it's own, when
placed side by side with grains from
other parts.
Mixed 4aTming is taking a strong
hold not oni. in those parts of Mani
toba, Saskatchewan and Alberta.
which up to the present have been de-
voted solely to grain growing, but also
in the districts contiguous, where the
conditions Of climate, shelter, water
grass and hay make farming of this
kind, easy to prosecute and large in
profits. Tt was in the Province of
Manitoba that the steer was raised
that carried off the Championship Of
the steer class, at Chicago last De-
cember. This beast had been fattened
on the grass and hay of the Province
and the only finishing grain it had was
barley; not an ounce of corn.
Western Canada presents innumer-
able opportunities for the big farmer
who wants to cultivate his thousands
of acres, the medium man satisfied
with a few hundred acres, the man
who is content to farm his free home
stead of one hundred and sixty acres;
it has opportunities for the investor,
the capitalist, the business man, the
manufacturer and the laborer.

Ambassador chinda Calls at State De.
partment and Holds Extended
Conference With Bryan.

Washington, April 5-Baron Oh ii.
da, Japanese ambassador, called On
Secretary of State Bryan and during
an extended conference presented q
protest against the proposed Califor-
MIA land laws.
After the conference the secretary
of state admitted the objections of the
Japanese were known to this govern
ment two weeks ago. Mr.. Bryan said
the negotiations were still in the con-
versational stage.
The protest from Japan in some
quarters is construed TO indicate that
Japan believes there is to be new
policy by this government affecting
foreign relations under which it will
be possible to obtain concessions
which were not obtainable under the
policy OF Colonel Roosevelt, later
adopted by President Taft
The only alternative to this belief
indicated by Japan's protest is de-
sire to raise an issue with the United
States. In this case no one can fore
shadow the end.
President Roosevelt answered Japan
when it was endeavored to have the
federal government take California by
the throat in the school question and
sent 16 battleships to the Pacific coast
For long time the purpose of the ia
nous cruise around the world was
kept secret, but it was finally admitted
that it was an object lesson to Japan

ton that the Japanese question or
