Wandseinas.

Everett P. Dahlsren. the millionaire
opponent of woman suffrage. said At
. suffrage debate in Boston:

shouldn't enter politics till she's full
filled all her prior duties.

. young lady Knocked me one day.
What do you men mean by these
prior duties" that you're always talk.

80 then told the young lady this
story:
Once upon a time. began. . little
hole was born; and 1t looked around
to see where 1t should take up its
abode.
1T nrst decided on . window. but q
man came straishtway and put In .

Mexico City.-Francisoo Carbajal
is forty-four years old. native of
the state OF Campeche. and lawyer.
Almost ever since the start of his
career he has occupied posts in the
judiciary. In the Madero administra-
ton he was a senator, but relin-
qushed his post to re-enter the su-
preme court, Of which he was chief
Justice at the time General Huerta ap-
pointed him minister Of foreign rela-
tons.
When General Porfirio Diaz deter
mined in 1911 to treat with the Made
70 revolutionists, Senior Carbajal pro-
ceeded to Juarez as his commissioner.
Senior Carbajal has a reputation for
possessing considerable intellectual
force and independence of character
His demeanor is quiet. He shuns the
exuberance in verbiage and gesticu-
lation to which Latin-Americans are
prone. He Is courteous, but man
OF few words and little given to elabo-
rate compliments.
Besides, he is neat and well
groomed in appearance. His features
Indicate pure European descent. with
out any admixture of Indian blood.
Altogether he is a man who con-
veys an impression Of reserve power.
He Is q good man Of business.
His probity has never been Ques-
toned. He has been sagacious and
successful in investments and, while
not rich. Is q man Of Independent
means. He is a man Of family.

 This second fire completed the ruin of the stocks in the Woolworth store and in the cigar store and pool and billiard rooms of Patrick Brady.

 Two firemen. Henry Burdick and Henry Myers. who had been left on

 the second fire just before o'clock

MRS. PANkHURST
 APPEALS TO KING
Asks His Majesty to Receive Deputa-

London, Feb. 25.-Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst, the suffragette leader. has written to the king asking him to re- ceive a deputation from the Women's Social and Political union, to lay be-, fore him their claim for the parlia- mentary vote and their complaint of the medieval and barbarous methods of torture whereby Your Majesty's ministers are seeking to repress the women's revolt against their depriva- ton of citizens rights"
 Mrs. Pankhurst, in her letter argues that it is futile to seek interviews with the ministers because they are the men whom the union accuses of betraying the women's cause and tor turing it's champions and also because the women refuse to recognize the au- thority of men who are elected or ap- pointed to office without their consent 1 She concludes: Because women are without the vote there are in our 1 midst today sweated workers, white
 slaves outraged children and innocent
 mothers and their babes stricken with l horrible disease. It is for the sake and in the name of these unhappy
 members of our sex that we ask Your

SPRING GARDEN PLANNING. Order Seeds Early And Test Them
 nn-n-rn.
E. K. PARKINSON.

February is garden planning month, for there are the seeds to be ordered, plans to be drawn, manure to be pur-. chased and a plownlan to be engaged. To derive the greatest pleasure from a garden it should be permanent one and the spot most carefully selected. A level piece or one sloping gently toward the south is to be preferred, and if possible a windbreak of ever greens should be set out on the north side, and low hedge of barberry might be planted around the edge of the entire garden, adding great beauty and providing bright autumn coforing For illustration we will lay out a gar den for 8 family of six and divide in four parts so that any or all could be used. Mark out. then, a square 200 feet on each side, with 6 winobank of trees or wall or board fence on the north side and a low hedge of bar berry on the other three sides. Divide this square into four equal parts by walks ten feet wide and where they cross in the center build a little arbor on which to grow vines. Each of the squaes will be ninety-five feet. On the east, west and north sides set out fruit trees next to the hedge-apples and cherries twenty-five feet apart. pears and peaches about twenty feet and plum about fifteen feet apart
 Laying Out the Garden.
 t On the plan mark the plots 1. 3. s. 4. Use the northwest plot, No. 1, for per manent crops, such as grapes, small fruits, rhubarb, asparagus, strawber- ries and herbs, leaving five foot strip on the two sides bordering the walk for perennials-peonies, iris. pnlox. sweet William, etc. Then, beginning on the north side, plant twelve grape vines, tWenty-four blackberry plants, thirty raspberry, eight entrants, a short double row of six gooseberries each, row of rhubarb, five rows of asparaguscon taining about 120 plants set three feet apart in the row and five rows of strawberries set two feet apart.
 Let the vegetable rows run north and south and border the plots on the wall, sides with flowers. The cost for vege- table seeds will be about SIS. Buy of reliable firm and never experiment with cheap seeds unless willing to test them first. which may be done by fill- ing shallow pans with damp sand

MULE VERSUS HORSE POWER.
A Long Lived An Economical east.
 GEORGE H. DACY.


 Mules are more intelligent, efficient and generally more satisfactory for farm work than horses and for their weight are superior in draIting aoiiIty. They wax fat on grain and roughage that most horses would reject, consum- ing about four-hfths as much food as similarly sized horses. Contrary to popular opinion. the majority of mules are traetable, docile and easily ham died in the field and stable. while TOE heavy work and continuous SerVice mules will ordinarily wear out the av- craze team of farm horses.
 Mules are particularly adapted to a change of drivers, as they flourish under treatment that would worry and fret a horse almost to death. Al pres- ent they excel horses in value on all the leading markets, and a pair of young, well broken 1.200 pound mules standing sixteen hands high will cOm- nand from $450 to $700 and higher, and their immunity to foot and leg ills, which so vitally affect the efficiency of many horses, is another strong point in favor Of this race of hybrids. The mule is the offspring of the mating of a Jack and a mare, and Is incapable Of reproducing himself.
 Mule Raising Profitable
 The owner of a good jack and sew eraI typy draft mares can make an at- traetive income from mule raising, as weanling mules bring about $76 per head, yearlings s125 to $50 apiece, while two-year- -olds sell for SITS to $2G0 and mature mules bring upward of, s225. Thus the mule breeder is quickly able to realize on his stock raising operations. Ordinarily a desir- able Jack costs from $500 to s1,00o.
 For general roustabout farm work the mule is excellent and after a wearisome days work, when free of drinks a little water. then eats 3. little feed and in this way he pases the night. The next morning he is ready for another ten or twelve or even fif- teen hours of hard work Mules are also their own doctors and will not gorge themselves with food nor flood themselves with water, as will horses. for you never hear of a mule being foundered simply because he knows when he has had enough. The term stubborn as @ mule" would be more appropriate if 1t ran sensible as a mule" Again, the mule has the ability to endure heat and are far less liable than horse to injury from sunstroke. He also has smaller more compact feet than horse, a point to be appre- ciated In cultivating the hoed crops where the rows are narrow. Lastly, the mule makes a very serviceable road animal and will go along with a right good will for hours at a stretch.
