Report of carranza-Villa Reeoneilia-
 ton Conference Is Made Public. Amendment Will Prevent Any Miii-
 tary Leader From Becoming Provi-
 sionai President.
 Mexican territory probably will be chosen for the scene of the proposed conference between Huerta's envoys and Constitutionalist delegates over plans for the establishment of pro- visional government Constitutionalist representatives in Washington ex pressed preference for a neutral place in Mexico-probably along the border Niagara mediators, Ambassador Da Cana and Minister Suarez, were to confer in New York over details of the meeting. '.s
 While the Constituionalist agents in Washington have not determined on any particular place for the meeting. yet it is known that In the discussion of the republics internal affairs they desire that there shall be no appear ance of foreign influence. They wish to divorce the proposed conferences from any relation to the Niagara medi- ation proceedings, so that the Mexican people may thoroughly understand the method by which their new chief ex. ecutive is agreed upon. ...
 With dissension among the Constitu- tionalist leaders apparently nearing adjustment, members of the revolu- tionary junta in Washington repeated expressions of confidence that the pro posed Huerta Carranza conference would take place.
 Nuevo Laredo. Mexico, has been con. sidered. as likely choice for the con. ference. II is opposite Laredo, Tex.
 The long awaited report of the Villa Carranza reconciliation conference which convened in Torreon on July and continued in session until noon of July 9, was made public. ..
 Its most significant proviso, aside from the settlement of the differ ences between the .Constitutionalists' first chieftain and General Villa. is the amendment of the plan of Guada lupe. under which the present revolu. ton has been operated.
 This amendment will prevent any military leader from becoming pro visional president of Mexico and elimi mates Carranza. Villa. Angeles or any oi the leaders now in the field as pres idential possibilities. +. ....

Sacred Banales.

One of the oldest and most curious of existing industries is the making of narrow rings or bracelets. called ban gles, from the chank. or sacred shell of the Hindus. This conch-Turkinella pyrum, Linn.-is found chiefly at a depth of about two fathoms in the gulf of Manaar. and about 2.000.000 of the shells are exported annually to Cal. cutta.

GOOD MANAGEMENT OF GEESE
Many Places on Farm Worthless for
Cultivation That Could BE Utilized
With Excellent Results.

Gsy G. T. HOWARD. United States De-
partment Of Agriculture.)
Goose raising is not SO extensively
engaged in as duck raising, the condi-
tons under which they can be sue
cesgfully raised being almost entirely
different from those necessary for sue
cessfuI duck raising The duck, be-
Ing smaller. can be raised In q more
limited space than can the goose. the
latter needing free range aneI water.
while the former has been proved to
do equally well without water.
While the goose can not profitably
be raised in as large numbers as the
duck, still II can not justly be termed
Improbable. There are many places
on farm that are worthless for cub
tivation that could be utilized with ex-
cellent results for goose raising.
Fields that have streams, branches,
or unused springs on them could be
turned to good advantage by making
them into goose pastures. Many farm
ers are profiting by this and adding to
their incomes annually. The care and
attention necessary for raising geese
are very small when compared with
the returns. and the cost Of food IL
also proportionately small in compari-
son with the cost OF food used for
other birds bred for market. A goose
on range will gather the. largest por-
ton of its food, consisting Of grasses.
insects and other animal and veget-
able matter to be found in the fields
and brooks.
The simplest kinds OF houses are
used for shelter: these should be built
