Of HUERTA AND

General Villa is determined to COM
rlete the absolute defeat of lIucrt1
and fight his way at the head OF his
army into McNico City, irrespective
OF the action General Carrunza may
take, according to reports brought TO
the border by travellers arriving
from Torrcon and Monterey. These
reports state that after Villa occu-
pies Zacatccas he will push ON south
without waiting for troop move
ments other than those under his
own direct control.
At Saltillo it is reported that Cen
eral Trcvino. chief OF staff to Car

duty and will command brigade il

NIAGARA FALLS, June %
Through the invitation of the Unit
cd States government and the good
Offices Of the three South American
mediators, representatives of the two
warring factions in MeNico-thl
consttutionalists and the Huerta
2ovcrnment-soon will be brought
face to face in an informal confer
ence, distinct from the mediation
proceedings.
To save Mexico from further
spoliation and the possibility of a
foreign war, the constitutionalists
apparently have been prevailed upon
to meet their countrymen-thr
IIuerta delegates-in a peace CON
ference whose object shall be tnc
ending of the civil strife which ha,
divided Mexico in the last eighteen
months.
The belief is general that this plan
stands an excellent chance OF b. ing
carried to success if the recent dit
icrcnces between General Villa and
Carranza are sufficiently composed
to guarantee that the constitutional
st delegation may work without em-
barrassment.
Arrangements for the meetings
are yet in a formative state.

With the appointment of PROBES
sor Jones, the three chief branches
OF the states exhibits have been ar
ranged for, the board having pre-
vlously appointed Professor Knight,
OF the agricultural and Professor
Clark OF the livestock departments
or the University of Nevada to look
after the collection and arrangement
Of the agricultural and livestock ex-
h1blts, respectively.
MI members of the university fac
ulty, who take part in the gather
ing Of the exhibits will render their
services without charge, and all es-
tmated expenditures are first to c
presented to the board for their ap-
prOval before contracts for the dis
burscment of the fairs funds can be
entered into.
The saving to shippers of freight
will be about $l,OOO,O0O year when
the new rates are compared with
those that were in effect at the
time the Nevada Railroad commits
sion hlcd its complaint. This, how
ever, is but a comparatively small
81 kn, l.
result will be that business amount
ing to untold millions OF dollars
can now be transacted in Nevada
every year, which previously could
not be done at all This means an
immediate impetus to the growth
and prosperity OF every town SO Sit
lit may be a distributing point. Reno,
for example, will absolutely control
the territory north as far as Lake
view, Ore, and, OF course, to very
considerable extend southwark, as
well. Lovelock, Winnemucca, Bat
tie Mountain, Deeth. Elko, Wells, in
fact, every point of consequence
along the line Of the Southern Pa
clhc, as well as points upon the
Western Pacific and San Pedro lines,
may Immediately become distribut-
, ing points for more or less consider
able areas OF territory. What this
will amount to in dollars and cents
cannot be predicted, but it can be
safely affirmed that in a business
way, the effect upon the prosperity
. OF the state will be enormous.
This is undoubtedly the most i'm
portant event that has ever taken
place in the commercial history oi
Nevada.

Real TrauedY of the STAGE.

A beautiful actress, Fraulein Oar
mer, was killed by accident recently,
while playing at the Theater of Va
rieties at Berne, Switzerland. The last
act Of the comedy, THE Pride of the
Third Company" was coming to an
end when Fraulein Darmer fell
through a defective stage trap to a
distance of six feet and fractured her
skull. The actress was carried uneon-
scious to her room and a doctor was
in prompt attendance, but the case
was beyond his help, and as the cur
tain fell on the comedy on the stage
the girl died Neither the members of
the company who took the final CALI
nor the public, who wondered why the
actress did not appear, had the slight
est idea of the tragedy that had oc-
Cured behind the scenes.

The street-corner orator had gath
cred around him a group of urchins.
Why they listened so attentively he
didn't understand; nor probably did
they know themselves. Simply moth

advantage Of his opportunity and de-
livered an improving lecture on the
value of kindness to dumb animals. At
the end he sought for some illustra-
ton to point the moral and adorn the
tale. 1t was there at hand. Across
the way walked lady, leading two
little dogs in leash. The one was black
and the other white. Now" exclaimed
the tub-thumper, after what have

dogs were to start fighting, what

dogs critically and thoughtfully. We'll

PARIS GREEN USED
IN SUMNER GARDEN
Much Can Be Saved by the Ju-
dicious Use of the Poison
for Killing Insects.

At this time of the year summer
garden crops are growing and much
can be saved by the judicious use OF
paris green for killing noxious in
sects. Paris green is a strong poison
and insects are killed with it. Suck.
ing insects such as the true bugs and
plant lice are not killed by poisons
but by sprays that blister their bodies
or by substances that stop up their
breathing pores.
When used as a spray the paris
green should first be made into a
thick paste by adding a little water
and then adding the proper quantity
Of water. 1t is always advisable to
add also twice the weight of poison
of fresh Stacked lime in order to rem.
der insoluble any free arsenic that
may be present and so prevent burn
ing of foliage The poison Is used
In an insoluble form, or as nearly SO
as 1t is possible to render it, hence
the water must be kept thoroughly
agitated in order that the power may
remain perfectly suspended in the
liquid. If the powder is allowed to
settle at the bottom of the vessel that
portion will be much concentrated
and likely to burn the plants, while
the top liquid will have very little
value as an insecticide.
In making the spraying mixture use
al ho1 AP
and one pound of lime to so gallons
of water. In spraying potatoes, for
instance, which are frequently affect.
ed with blight or fungous disease, one
pound of paris green is added to 80
gallons of Bordeaux mixture Dor.
deaux mixture is made by dissolving
four pounds of copper sulphate and
five pounds of water. These two mix.
lures work well together, killing in
sects and fungous diseases at the
same time and hence saving of la
Dor in spraying.
Paris green may be busted on plants
with cheesecloth bags or ordinary
powder bellows. 1t may be applied
either pure or diluted, but it is best
to dilute with twenty to one hundred
parts of lime, air Stacked or land plas-
ter, before applying, according to the
nature of the plants treated. Even
weaker solutions should be used
where the parts busted are to be used
for food. In the treatment of cabbage
use but one ounce of the poison to
ten pounds of lime or plaster.

FURNISHED BOND OF AMITY
willing Means of Bringing Rival
Humorists Together.

Once upon. time two humorists
dwelt in the same small town and both
contributed to the Sunday Star. AS
was but natural, they became wildly
jealous of each other, and when one
would win a little more prominence
than his fellow the other would have
seven kinds of fits. Your Pleasant
Valley Items give me pain!" quoth
one. Your prose rhymes make me
ILL" retorted the other. AS they were
about to come to blows there ap-
peared on the scene Good Samaritan
and to him they appealed. Which Of
us is the funnier?" they asked. Meth
er!" was the prompt reply. You are
both as unfunny as wart hogs, and as
tiresome as a trip across the Sahara!"
Thereat they both set upon the gen.
tleman from Samaria and beat him
full sore, and dwelt together in amity
forever after
Moral: From this we should learn
that while humorists delight in quar-
reling among themselves, they fire.

HOW HE TURNED THE TRICK
After This, Mr.. Mordecai Hammerfest

Thing or Two.

Mrs. Mordecai Hammerfest turned
pale as her husband entered the din

Perfectly" he replied in seeming
surprise.

She passed the butter, remarking
nervously, But, Mordy, dear, as you

We'll, what Of it. Your hair is in
curl papers, isn't it?"
"Why-y-yes.
And you have on wrapper,
haven't you?"
Yes"

And he went on eating his break
fast in silence except when he asked
her to pass the butter. Then he went
upstairs and finished dressing, and the
next morning and on succeeding morn
ings she reported for breakfast in reg
ular clothes.

EXCELLENT HINTS
DURING HAY TIME
Make All Necessary Preparations
Before Work Actually Starts
Take Care of Tools.
(By M. CovERDELL.)

Don't begin haying and make prepa
rations afterward.
See that every hay tool is in prime
working order and good repair.
Fill every oil cup and bearing and
wipe of before attempting to turn q
wheel.
1t is only fair that the household
help be as plentiful and efficient as is
the help in the fields.
A sunshade for the driver while
moving may cause some unkind1 re-
marks, but it was never known to
cause a sunstroke.
Lay in full supply of repairs now |;
don't wait until the breakage occurs
and stops a dollar-a-minute haying
crew while you drive to town for re-
pairs.
Don't buy repair rake-teeth already
shaped up when you can saw out two
Of them yourself from a by 6, and
rave at least one-half what you would
be charged for the shaped teeth.
Good, keen sickles leave a smooth
mown meadow; save all the grass;
wear the machine out less than dull
sickles, and greatly tighten the load
of the teams.
A water jug with the juice of a
lemon or two squeezed into it. beats
( any of the so-called stimulants many
farmers are coming to make use of
every year during the hay harvest
The lemon juice diminishes the
thirst, while the stimulants increase it..
A damp handkerchief worn in the
crown of the hat adds to ones COM
fort and guards against sunstroke.
Rushing the team and the men is a
most successful plan for running up
big repair bill or a dangerous sun
stroke.
Make clean finish of the business
while you are about it. See that all
the stacks are we'll topped and stand
Ing up straight when the work is done,
then run three good wires around
every stack-yard and save doing it
when you turn In on the meadow for
fall pasturage.
This is also the best time you'll ever
have for putting away the hay tools.
The intense hot weather following the
hay harvest knocks out as much ma
chinery as the work just finished;
then the damp fall weather puts a
rusty coat on it which about ruins it.

acre will yield. In fact all acre Of
land worth SIS per acre will furnish
enough hay to feed at least 10 head
Of sheep. Cost per head so cents.
If we allow one-half of oats daily
during the months of February.
March and April, before the ewes are
on pasture, while sucking lambs, the
cost will be 45 cents at the price of
oats at present. In conclusion it may
be safely said that the cost of main
tanning a herding eve in the corn-belt
farm would be about $2.25, exclusive
of the labor involved which the good
farmer is glad to give in exchange for
the manure he secures.
If the flock gives a 10-pound clip
which any well-managed flock should
do, it is readily apparent that the
fleece will pay for the Sleeps keep.
In good Shropshire flocks the ewes
raise an average of from one and one
quarter to one and one-half lamb per
eve. Place 1t conservatively at one
lamb per eve, worth at weaving time
from Sc to So, which may be said to
be the profit for one eve. OF course,
there are losses in the eve flock, that
will cut down the profits, ewes die and
must be replaced by younger ewes.
Some age and lambs must be supplied
in their place, but even then the good
shepherd can count on profit of from
81 to S. for every eve kept.
Since it requires two acres of land
for eight sheep, the income per acre
from the sheep would be about $40
net. A very fair income compared
with that even to be made from the
cultivation of corn.
Sheep raising has the additional ad-
vantage of involving less labor than
does the cultivation Of soil. Then, too,
the land used for the sheep becomes
daily more productive, while that CIV
en- over to corn growing becomes
poorer and poorer each year.
