FlREsToNE TIRES IN
WAR SERVICE

Just before the Mexican war cloud darkened the horizon of the U. s. War Department. General Lucio Blanco. commanding the CSnstitutionalist forces in Mexico, drove his war car through the thickest of the Matamoras battle. This car was equipped with Firestone Non-Skid tires The tires were badly mutilated by the hail of bullets from the Federal sharp shoot ers, but the tough fabric was not pen .etrated. although a ball from one of the machine guns cut a broad gash in one of the treads. General Blanco gave the tires credit for carrying him safely out of the danger zone
 Later. when 1t seemed that Uncle Sam must invade Mexico a report of the part these tires played in the above scrimmage csme to the ears of Captain Alfred Aloe, Depot Guar termaster of the U. s. Army at Gal weston He immediately got in touch with the Firestone Company and, all though he did not want pneumatic tires because of the danger of pune ture he ordered Firestone Solid Tires with quick removable rims This equipment made it possible to change

MEXICAN CONSUL IS
 CLEARED OF CHARGES
Returns to Douglas En Route to NaCO Where He Will Again
 Assume Duties

Completely vindicated of the charges of treason preferred against him while the Mexican consul at Doug las, Miguel Lopez Torres arrived yes terday in the Shelter city and will to- day assume charge of the consulate of- flee at Naco to which he was ap- pointed upon his own request. He was offered a European consulship but on account of the charges against him when he left he requested that he be given an assignment in his old district
 The charges against Torres have been under investigation for six months in the office of the secretary of foreign affairs, and have at last been dismissed as grOundless. That the government never consideed them very serious is indicated by the fact that Torres was never placed under arrest having the freedom of the cap ital during his stay there His salary was paid right along, and Torres says his trip was like a fine, long vacation.
 Torres left Mexico City July 29, go ing to Vera Cruz, where he sailed by steamship to Texas City. After a few hours in Fl Paso he went directly to Douglas He reports conditions in Mexico City as quiet when he left but on account of his official position stated he could not talk of politics or war matters. Possibly, however because of the present situation in Mexico City, he is not at all unwilling to be out for a while.
 However he is very willing to be back here and greet all his old friends He is one of the most popular con suls fin the Mexican service along the border. Plans are now being made by the Mexicans of Naco to tender him e public reception in honor of his re turn.

WAR NEWS SITS
 HEAVY IN SLEEP
German Sympathizer Becomes Big err" in Sleep and
 Starts Battle

War news Co excess, a large feed, and his sympathy for the German side of the European war situation caused Rex Hummel. who rooms at the Y. M. c. A. to have bad dreams Tuesday night Dreams that almost caused him to attack acting secretary Whit tig of the Y. M. c. A. at about three o'clock in the morning
 Whittig stated last night that he when he heard an uproarous shout. Come on men, here he is" and felt some one jump a straddle of him, pinning him in the bed SO that he was unable to move. The person then be- gan to beat him with a pillow and yell. "T'n kill you, you dirty spy" while Whitug laid there unable to re- alize just what was going on.
 About this time, the excitement be- came so great that. Charley Cavis. an- other German sympathizer who sleeps in the same room, began to think he was leading a German troop to vic- tory and began to tell the world of his deeds in unsubdued tones.
 But at this moment another occu- pant, who was occupying the same room, was awakened and switched on the lights. which action had the effect of causing the two battalions of war riors to get back to bed without walk ing up or causing any further commo- tion. Both denied their actions when told of them yesterday morning, but both Whittlg and the other occupant of the room swear that the story is true.

NITRATEs IN UNITED STATES

The European situation has called
attention sharply to the dependence of
this country upon Germany for its pot
ash supply, some twelve or more mil
lion dollars worth of which Is used
annually in the United States for fer
tilizer. Another necessary mineral for
which the United States is entirely
dependent upon a foreign country is
sodium nitrate, over twenty-one mill
lion dollars worth OF which was i'm
ported from Chile last year.
Deposits of sodium and potassium
nitrate are known in Utah, Nevada,
California, Oregon, Montana, and New
Mexica and have been described in
publications of the geological survey
and bureau OF soils, but thus far no
material of this kind has been found
in sufficient quantity to promise com
mercial value. The latest report that
has come to the geological survey re-
Iates TO a deposit in Arizona.
One important domestic source of
combined nitrogen is the gas works
and by-product coke ovens, which in
1912 reported a recovery of ammonia
cal liquor. ammonia. and ammonium
sulphate valued at S9,51O,26s. This
outpu: of by-product ammonium Aul-
phate increased in 10 years from IT,
643,507 pounds to 90,07O,777 pounds,
and as 1t is linked with the great
coking industry further increases can
be expected.
Another domestic supply of nitro
gen compound lies in the fixation OF
atmospheric nitrogen by electricity.
Cheap hydroelectric development is
necessary to establish this industry,
which would make our large agricul-
tural and Industrial interests free
from the uncertainties Of the foreign
supply. II is hoped that the water
power legislation now before the
United States senate may promote ny
droelectric development in large units
and tbs utilize some of the great water
powers in the west An obtaining nitro

COUNTRY BACKS PRESIDENT

That the change in point OF view Of
the nation since Aug. must be OF adj
vantage to the party in power is gen.
orally admitted. Lines OF attack on
the administration record, which had
been carefully opened up. are now
completely blocked. Certain liabilities
OF the president are now revealed as
assets. A gibe at ''watchful waiting"
today would be more likely to make
democratic votes than republican or
progressive votes. All criticism OF the
foreign policy of the administration is
suspended. Mr.. Roosevelt has publicly
announced an abandonment OF his as
sault on the president along that line.
The sufficient answer to criticism of
the foreign policy of the United States
government, says the Springfield Re-
publican, is that the United States is
at peace with all the world. Americans
prefer the answer OF the '1nexperi-
enced" Bryan to the Japanese ambas-
sador. There can be no last word be-
tween friends" TO the experienced Won

The country Is not likely in the COM
ing elections to weaken seriously the

abroad. He must remain president of
the United States throughout the war
period, and in him rest the worlds
best hopes OF peace as soon as condi-
lions render II advisable for him to
again offer his friendly Offices. He
will need the strong and undivided sup
port OF his countrymen in order that
he may speak at the opportune moment
with such prestige that the powers in
conflict will listen to his counsel.

Burns COTTAGE.

The Burns cottage at Ayr IS under
the charge OF trustees. who purchased
it in 1881 from the Ayr Shoemakers'
incorporation for the sum OF $4,000
The birthplace OF the poet had up till
that time been in use as a public
house. The trustees abandoned the
license. and after a time removed a
hall and other extraneous buildings
which had been added TO the premises
and restored the cottage buildings as
nearly as possible to the state they
may have been in in Burns time. A

The migration OF a large fraction or
the population OF the civilized parts
of the world from the country to the
cities is one OF the phenomena attend
ing the "industrialization" OF modern
nations. Whereas formerly the city
was essentially a center for trade and
Office life. of late the factory with Its
large working population has become
an adjunct of city life. From the point
of view of nutrition. which plays a
dominant part in determining the fit
moss OF the individual for work, II is
that the less opulent la
boring classes should be drawn away
from the region of cheap food in the
country to homes where new stand
ards OF living are imposed ON them.
The altered distribution of the popu-
lation has brought with It certain
problems OF nutrition that cannot be
dismissed as inconsequential or solved
by restrictive legislation. Economic
laws sometimes are far more effective
than educational propagandas or gov
ernmental interference.
The Industrial worker who migrates
from the country to the city. like the
immigrant. soon finds that he must
alter his accustomed diet. The sim
plicity OF an adequate diet obtainable
in the country regions cannot readily
be continued in the city. The cheap
est articles of food. such as bread and
potatoes, available In the larger cen
tiers, do not satisfy the requirements.
But even If cheap forms of protein
were procurable, the demand for
special source. namely, meat. soon be-
comes a dominating factor, in the Sc
lection OF the ration. Meats, whether
of mammals, birds or fishes. have al
ways entered prominently into the
dietary OF the well-to-do; and in this
country, where the tendency to wipe
out the distinctions between social
classes is always in operation, the poor
and the less favored groups are con-
tinually striving to initiate the ways
of their more fortunate neighbors. A
national sentiment fosters this ambi-
ton in a country where every man is
a king" The urban workman wants
good cuts of meat, not because they
are absolutely Indispensable to health.
but because the example of his neigh
Dor has encouraged the habit. 1t is
quite different on our farms and in

rural communities. where local pro-
duce enters more largely into the
home.
With an impending rise in price and
increasing scarcity OF meat making It
self felt throughout the country. and
with the growing tendency OF the In.
dustrfal workers coming from the
country to the cities to try to provide
the table which is demanded by their
well-to-do neighbors, household
problem inevitably arises. Either the
dietary habit must be materially
changed to include a different type OF
ration-a scheme almost impossible
of accomplishment where food Gus
toms are in part dictated by usage
or retrenChment in expenditures must
be sought in some other way.
At present the cheapest articles OF
food include potatoes, peas and beans,
and certain cereals in the form OF
coarse bread; cabbage forms a cheap
green vegetable; among animal pro-
ducts. milk and cheese are compare
lively inexpensive; fish furnish the
cheapest forms of flesh foods; and
dried apples are among the cheapest
fruits. Expensive butter can be in
part replaced advantageously by less
expensive, yet thoroughly wholesome
animal and vegetable fats. Beef,
which Is always expensive. might well
be replaced more literally by fish
than it has been in the past. Potatoes
are not yet competing with the cereals
as extensively as they might well do;
but cheese is likely to find increasing
favor.
The adequate dietary Is a decidedly
flexible affair. The idea that even
radical departures from acquired food
habits are likely to lead to nutritive
disorder and decreased efficiency
needs to be eradicated, says the Jour
nal of the American Medical Associa-
ton. The foods Of nations vary widely
and yet support creditable human
specimens. When once this fact is
thoroughly appreciated there will be
less dismay when rise in the price
of some supposedly indispensable pro-
duct Il announced. The adjustment
OF the dietary to the pocketbook will
be further facilitated when intelligent
marketing becomes recognized as a
household art that deserves cultiva-
ton.
