Carranza's Resignation Expected.
Dispatches reaching the eonstitu-
fionalist agency here from Mexico
CITY indicated that Gen. Carranza
would tender his resignation as first
chief of the constitutionalists to the
convention of leaders in Mexico City
today. >.
In official and diplomatic circles ii
is believed that the Zacatecas con-
ference will end the revolt OF Gen
Villa by approving the choice of Fer
nando Iglesias Calderon as provisional
president, and that this action Will be
followed by Iglesias' election by the
Mexico City convention.
Reports that Iglesias had refused to
accept the office of provisional presi-
dent were denied by officials here. Sec
retary Bryan said that no confirmation
of such reports had reached the State
Department
Rafael Zubaran Capmany made pub
lie a telegram from Gen. Carranza, in
which the latter said:
"If the chiefs to whom / will resign
accept my resignation. 1 shall retire
to private life with the consciousness
of having done my duty as a citizen
as governor of the state OF Coahuila
and as first chief of the constitutional
ist army in charge Of the executive
mower"

sas City, but had been topped at other
places. Before the show was over a
worlds record had been established.
A yearling mule sold for $3.50. more
money than had ever been paid for a
mule of that age before.
Probably just as valuable animals
are raised in other states, but they
lack the prestige, and the Missouri
farmer gets the cash. Imagine a
Kansan. or man from Iowa or ILL
nois selling yearling mule for over
half thousand dollars. The idea Is
preposterous.
A mule buyer purchased these fancy
songsters. He expects to make money
on his investment. and it is reason
able to suppose that he knows his
business. When you come to think
the matter over the price is not ex-
orbitant after all The three-year-old
span will be good for 20 years of serv-
ice, and will earn many times over
the original sum paid for them.

BoNEMEAL GOOD FOR SWINE
and Nebraska Stations-Streneth
ening to the Bones.

All kinds of bonemeal are used in
the manufacture of fertilizers, but
not all kinds are suitable for feed for
swine. Bonemeal from glue factory
which has gone through the process in
which acid was used is not sui able
feed. But any bonemeai, especially
green bone that is ground finely
enough, may be fed. Steamed bone
meal is good
At the Missouri station bonemeal
was fed with good results. About an
ounce of meal was fed to each hog per
day.
At the Nebraska station four lots of
pigs were fed to determine the value
of wheat short, tankage and steamed
ground bone as supplemental to corn
meal. The hogs were pastured on
alfalfa, and for this reason the lot
fed on corn alone made about as salts
factory gain as any, although the lot
which was fed bonemeal in addition
to the corn had the strongest bone
Shorts strengthen the bone some,
and tankage with corn produced
much stronger bone than corn alone.
Where mixed rations were given, or
skim-milk or good pasture. all Of
which supply ash material, 1t Is
doubtful that bonemeal Is of much
value other than for the purpose of
strengthening the bones.

PLUM CULTURE NOT DIFFICULTY
and the Most Profitable-Also
Most Remunerative.

Plums are the hardest of stone
fruits, and the crop is one of the
most remunerative, in at all favorable
seasons. from market gardens and cul-
tivated orchards. In private estab.
lishments the fruits of all the best
varieties are much valued and less
highly favored ones prove invaluable
for cooking and preserving The crop
Is, therefore one of the most i'm
portant, both for market and for pri-
vate consumption.
Plum trees succeed In any fairly
good, loamy soil, provided the sub
soil is opened and properly drained.
The ground should be well trenched
previous to planting. although the
roots of plums are naturally disposed
nearer to the surface than those of
apples or pears. In a very rich soil
the growths usually made are too Wig
orous to become we'll ripened; in that
which is moderately light, yet suf-
ficiently moist the trees succeed and
produce the best Favored fruits. Re-
specting flavor. however much de-
ponds on the amount of sunshine and
light available.
In market gardens where plums are
extensively grown, they are sometimes
planted in lines, and the intervening
spaces are occupied with gooseberries
and currants. Standards and half
standards are generally favored, but
dwarf and bush trees are also ex-
tensively planted in market as we'll
as in private gardens. All the finer
dessert sorts should, if possible, be
favored with wall spaces in private
gardens, as their fruits are invariably
of so much Importance. and the crop
is more certain with the protection
of a wall than when the trees are fully
exposed. A temporary covering, while
the blossoms are open, may also be
readily applied should frost or I'M
favorable weather prevail In a south
ern slope the fruits attain their high
est flavor
The manner of planting the tree Is
similar to that recommended for the
apple and the pear. Mulching in case
of dry weather is advantageous to re-
Gently transplanted trees in general,
and should be particularly attended to
in the case of the plum. for II the
root fail to supply enough of sap to
the tree in dry weather, cumming
is sure to ensue: the more uniform
the supply Of the sap the more
healthy will be the tree. The supply
of sap cannot be uniform unless the
moisture of the soil about the roots
is steadily maintained, and the best
means of doing this is by mulching.
The usual mode of propagating culti-
waited varieties is by budding and
grating. Some sorts reproduce them
selves nearly true from seeds, as, for
instance, the green gage; but seed
lings generally vary more OF less from
the original, and it is therefore best
not to depend on this mode of propa-
cation, beyond the raising of seed
lings as stocks for peaches, etc.

Ration for Lambs.

The best ration for the lambs will
not be the best ration for the ewes.
Nevertheless a fairly good though
rather expensive feed mixture for
both of them will be oats. four parts;
bran. four parts; corn, three parts;
oil meal, two parts. II 1t were posi-
BILE to separate the ewes from the
lambs, it might be advisable to give
the lambs larger proportion of corn
and the ewes smaller proportion of
corn. Enough grain should be given
to keep the ewes in good flesh. but not
fat. The roughage ration for these
sheep is not Of frst-class quality and
therefore it will be necessary to give
q good grain ration.
