HUERTA GIVES UP MAzATLAN
A TERRITORY THAT WAS LOST
Little Fighting Reported In Any
Secti0n-PreSent Movement of
Mexican Troops a Puzzle to All
Three Armies

SAN FRANCISCO, May e.-The
war situation in Mexico is yet puz-
zle to the governments. Villa con-
tinues to advance while Huerta
seems content to remain in the in
terror. 1t is given out today that
Huerta is willing to give up the
Mazatlan section and all federal
troops are being sent from that sec
ton. This is considered a concentra-
ton of troops further to the south
and a Strengthening of the Huerta
lines.
The Mexican delegates left Mexico
City today for Vera Cruz on their
way to Niagara Falls to join the
diators
The American government has
stated that additional troops would
be sent to Vera Cruz, not as an ag-
gressive movement, but as a matter
Of better protection. No attempt will
be made to prevent the landing Of
arms and munition at Puerto Mexi-
CO, as no war ships are stationed
there and none would be sent 1t is
believed that generous supply OF
small ammunition has been unloaded
at the port during the day.

Hen and Incubator
Are Compared

EHE hen is an efficient mother and
has certain advantages which no
artificial system has been able to
provide. But the incubator is better
adapted to large enterprises and to small
ones under certain conditions. Notwith-
standing the popularity of incubators,
large and small, and brooders Of diff.
ferent sizes and styles, Prof. A. G.
Smith, poultryman Minnesota Agricul.
tural college, maintains that thore is an
advantage for the small poultryman in
Matching with hens.
He says that Matching in the old
fashioned way involves very little ex.
pense-none whatever if the poultry.
man owns his own flock. A further
advantage is that a small number Of
eggs may be set, thereby allowing in.
cubation soon after the eggs are laid,
which often means better matches and
stronger chicks. With proper arrange.
ments and, up to small limit, the same
number of eggs set under hens, requires
no more work than when the Matching 10
done with an incubator.
When a sitting hen abandons her
nest there are fewer eggs spoiled than
when an incubator goes wrong, and this
| is frequently big item. But there is
another good word for the brooding
hen, and that is in caring for the baby
chicks. She will take better care in gen.
eral, Of the chicks she matches, than the
average human being can take, and be.
vause Of that service, less attention is
required than where the chicks are rear.
ed in brooders.
The professor INDUCES in little hu.
NOR when he says in preparing place
for hen to sit man usually "selects
a box Of large or small dimensions, but
usually not less than ten inches in
height, therein nest of hay, the eggs,
then hen, and outside little water and
corn, and expects the hen to do the
rest. OF course, the hen has to leave
the nest, and to return she must jump
first upon the edge Of the box, ten or
twelve inches high, and from this perch
she is expected to alight in the midst
Of thirteen to fifteen eggs without
striking one. If the hen selected that
nest 1t would be where she would walk
on and off, and the sensational high
dive would be omitted from the daily
program.
