MEXICAN WAR BARELY MISSED

Washington, Aug. 1S.-Just how close
the United States came to being in
yolved in a war with Mexico as re-
Gently as fortnight ago was revealed
today by some high officials OF the
Administration.
When Gen. Carranza abruptly re-
jected the overtures of the peace en-
voys sent by Provisional President
Carbajal, and at the same time ignored
the diplomatic efforts Of the American
Government to ring a peaceful entry
of the Constitutionalists into Mexico
City, drastic measures were urged up
on President Wilson.
Many members of the Cabinet-it Is
said a majority--argued in favor OF
sending American troops from Vera
Cruz to the Mexican capital to prevent
the anarchy that was then expected to
follow from the failure of the Carbajal
Government and the Constitutionalists
to reach an agreement.
President Wilson, however, firmly re-
sisted all pressure. arguing that the
sending Of American troops to Mexico
City, even on a mission Of order, would
probably mean war with the approach
ing Constitutionalists.

BIGGEST CROP OF
APPLES SINCE 's6.


The great apple crop of the United
States this year is causing great salts
faction in fruit trade circles. The
prosperous outlook for the autumn Is
nowhere brighter than appears to the
leading fruit groers of the country.
Interesting estimates by fruit growers,
shippers, brokers and managers Of
stores are published in the current is
sue of the Fruit Trade Journal
The forecast by that publication Is
that the apple crop will be the greatest
since 1896, when 1t aggregated 10000
600 barrels. Its figures place the total
yield of this year at from 100000 to
100000 barrels. On this basis prom
inent commission merchants assert
that the best apples will be purchas-
able next year at prices not exceeding
81 barrel,
I'VE have good information" says
the Fruit Trade journal, Concerning
boxes of apples, and say the crop
will be: California, at least 5000 cars;
Oregon, Ashland to Freewater, 1850,
cars; Washington, at least $4,000 cars:
Utah and Montana, 1000 cars; Idaho,
1900 cars; Colorado, 5000 cars; New
Mexico, 1,5OO cars" There are 800
boxes to car.
I'm Western New York the crop is
estimated at being the largest since
1896. The United States Department
of Agriculture figures it at eighty eight
per cent normal and eighty-four per
cent of ten year average. These fig
ures are said to be much below the
mark by experienced and reliable fore
casters and growers
Notable gains are reported from all
the New England States with the ex-
ception of Connecticut. Maine has a
splendid crop, two million barrels OF
which promise to be of desirable size
and quality. The Vermont crop Is re-
ported to be large and the outlook for
fruit of fine quality is bright.
in Illinois the outlook is for a short
er crop than last year because of In
jury done by codling moth and other
fruit pests. Michigan will have an I'M
precedentedly large crop. In Missouri
the crop will be smaller than that OF
last year, and II Ben Davis and Gano
apples were no SO plentiful in the
Ozarks section prospects this year
would be discouraging. The outlook in
the Ozarks at the time the trees were
in bloom pointed to an immense yield,
but blossom blight subsequently made
its appearance and played havoc with
donations and many other varieties.
Virginia will have a large GRO
some say record In point Of size--and
growers there are already negotiating
with railroads for a sufficient number
of cars to move their crop.
I'm 1912-1913 New York received o.
100000 barrels and the exports
amounted to 9S2.81S barrels, thus leav-
ing only 1.2l7.S22 barrels for local con-
sumption. In 1913-1914 New York got
1 100000 barrels and exports were
sol $3.50 barrels, thus leaving 73s.610
barrels for local consumption"

Poultry erowino oppOrtunities.

The farmers OF Northern Kentucky,
in the opinion of the Coyington Post,
are making mistake in not en-
gaging more extensively in the poul
try business.
Doubtless there is room in Northern
Kentucky as elsewhere in the State
for great expansion of the poultry in
dustry. In 1909, according to Federal
census figures, Ohio and Missouri each
produced more than s19,OO0.000 worth
OF eggs. while Illinois produced APP
proximately the same. Indiana pro-.
duced more than Sl5.OOO,0OO worth,
while the value OF the egg product in
Kentucky was s7.6O5.ll6. The num-
Der of eggs produced in Kentucky
was only a little more than half the
production in Indiana.
Missouri, all things considered.
probably is the leading poultry State
in the union, but Missouris prestige
in the poultry business has been won
since the Worlds Fair was held In
st. Louis. In ten years the value OF
the eggs produced has more than
doubled.
The Federal census reported more
than 100000 chickens in Kentucky
In 1909 and estimated their value at
a little less than $4,OO0.0OO. But these
same chickens, as noted in the fore
going, produced more than S7,OO0,O00
worth OF eggs. The farmers of Ken
lucky once looked upon the egg busi-
ness as small business. Many OF
them even now do not realize the
immense value of the egg production
of the country. The eggs are gath
cred in from the four corners OF the
earth, here a few and there few, but
in the aggregate the number runs into
the millions. And the State is not do
ing half as well as 1t might do I'm the
egg line with the roper development
of the industry.
The increase of poultry fiocks on
the farms is altogether practical and
that is the character of Increase that
is needed. Production will not be
materially helped by city farmers who
go into the poultry business under
the mistaken impression that there's
millions in It," These misguided souls
will come and go as ever and always,
but the real chicken raising must be
done on the farms"

a WAR OF INSTALLATIONS

A special correspondent of the New
York Times at Berlin, Frederick w.
Willie, now writing from London,
terms the ELAN" of the Germans a
miscalculation, and one which Will
cause nation wide gnashing of teeth
when the gravity of the miscalcula-
lions is popularity understood Mr..
Willie particularizes as follows:
"At present the Germans are hope
.lessly in the dark. Drunk with self
confidence, they are being dragged
deeper and deeper into the uncertain
ties of a world war in the belief that
the sword has been forced into the
Kaisers hand.
"Germany's miscalculations nave
been both political and military. They
began with the cocksure supposition
that the Triple Entente would not
withstand the shock of war. France
was held to be unready. Russia was
looked upon as on the brink of reyolu-
ton, both political and industrial.
England was thought to be preoccu-
pied with Ulster and disinclined, in
any circumstances, to risk anything in
a great Continental struggle not di-
rectly affecting her. Italy's help was
regarded as a foregone conclusion.
"The idea of the Belgians' resistance
to Germany's temporary invasion was
hardly considered That Belgium could
offer military opposition worthy OF
Pleyna never entered Berlin's mind.
american sympathy was absolutely
counted upon. Its absence is the cruel
est disappointment the Kaiser's Gov
baS far suffered,
Its miscalculations in regard to
England were perhaps the greatest of
all. 1t secuted the thought of an Eng
lish army, or the idea that Kitchener
might suddenly be placed in charge oil
it. The Germans have been educated
by their political professors to believe
that a great European war involving
Great Britain meant the independence
of Canada, Austria and South AFRICA
and revolutions in India and Egypt"
Commenting upon this remarkable
declaration the Courier journal says:
ut is inconceivable in America that
the Germans could look forward TO
rebellion in South Africa, Canada or
Australia as a result of an attack
upon Great Britain. No political con-
aitions in either of the three de-
tendencies give ground for such
views. India and Egypt might make
advantage Of any seemingly good
opportunity to rebel, but 1t is not
altogether certain that India would.
Many thinking Indians have desired
autonomy, such as Australia has,
rather than separation from the
British Empire. The PAX Britain
MICA" is respected by Indian princes
who are still in possession OF their
thrones as bar to midas returning
to the condition of cock pit, IN
which England found it.
at is inconceivable in America that
Germans of the better informed
classes could have believed that
American sympathy would have been
with any European nation seemingly
the aggressor in a great European
war. The other miscalculations might
have been more easily, and reason
ably, made, with the exception of that
with regard to the Irish question keep
ing open a split between British after
a declaration of Germany's purposes.
Anyone must have known that move
ment against the United Kingdom by
a Continental Power would unity the

higher prices than hotels and restau-

A letter to the Attorney General

Gods Holy Book and had prayer and
a testimony meeting. The people told
how they loved the Lord and what he
was doing for them and then they had
good old fashioned handshRke In
token Of love. II they never meet on
earth again they would all meet In
Heaven. We are so glad that the
Lord is not confined 10 one place but

take their departure for their respec-

spent a pleasant day and was sorry

old days. Everybody left feeling that
they had food for the soul as well as
the body. NIECE.
