TURKEY RAISING PAYS
Fowls Have Proved OF Benefit to
Growing Crops.
City Buyers Are willing to Pay Fancy
Prices for Birds Provided They
Come Direct From Farm, Free
From Disease.


It has been said against turkeys
that they are destructive to crops. but
In the writer's experience. they have,
instead. proved a benefit to growing
crops OF hay or grain; they are in
search of insects, not green food
As soon as. or before. the hens show
an inclination to seek for nests in the
spring a sufficient number of barrels
or large boxes should be placed where
they can find them, preferably on the
ground so that the hen may walk into
the nest; IL she has to jump down
into the barrel or box the chances are
some eggs will be broken. Seclude
these boxes or barrels by partly COW
ering them with brush or straw. After
the hen begins to lay, remove the eggs
each day, placing one or two hens
eggs in their place.
II the hen lays more than fifteen
eggs, give all over that number to a
chicken hen, but when the eggs are
hatched give all to the turkey hen.
After the hen has been set shut her
in safely from anything that might
harm her, but let her off the nest each
morning very early, shutting her in
again when she returns.
Some claim that the chicken hen
makes the best mother, but If those
who claim this will notice when feed
ing young turkeys with a chicken hen,
they will see that often the turkeys
will, after eating a few mouthfuls. go
off in search of an insect until called
back by their unnatural mother and
encouraged to stuff themselves with
unnatural food
They do not wish to eat much at one
time and when being fed. should. at
the same time. be supplied with wa
ter: but when allowed to roam they
do very well if watered night and
morning. but, if they come in from
the field during the day it is because
they want water.
Nature has taught them to eat in
sects almost exclusively when young,
while the same teacher instructs the
turkey hen to take her brood where
such food is abundant, allowing them
to secure it for themselves.
The hen scarcely ceases her watch
long enough to secure the necessary
food to sustain herself. for she seems
always to have her head in the air to
see that the coast is clear.
The turkey crop Matched previous
to June l should attain good growth
by the last OF November, the cock
birds reaching ten to twelve pounds.
The turkey is not fully matured

Miss Curley kept private school

MEXICAN NOTE IS
SIGNED BY WILSON
Joint Communication Prepared by
Pan-American ENJOYS Ready
for Transmission.
CARRANzA DENIES DISORDER

WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.--Presi-
dent Wilson and Secretary Lansing
conferred at length today on the
Mexican situation. Details OF yes
terday's conference in New York of
the Latin-American diplomats were
given to the president.
Just before Mr.. Lansing went TO
the White House he announced that
the appeal to the factions and lead
ers in Mexico will not be sent today,
as arrangements for its transmission
by telegraph and mail to remote
parts of Mexico are not complete.
The communication has been fin
ished, signed, approved by president.
With the return OF the president Il was
again reiterated that the inter-Americau
peace plan does not contemplate IN any
way the use OF force, or the impairment
OF Mexico's sovereignty or interference
In its domestic affairs. The purpose OF
the appeal Is 10 influence Mexicans them
selves 20 hold a peace convention and
the government created by that action
will be accorded recognition whether or
not the acauiescence of all the factions
is obtained.
Secretary Lansing declined 20 comment
on General Carranza's letter OF protest
against the Pan-American peace plan.
lie said no reply had been made. How
ever tho feeling is that when the PAN
American conferees appeal Is read Il
will be evident that Carranza has been
misinformed as to the purpose OF the
peace plan and there Is confident hone
that some OF his hitherto close support
ers Will give their adherence TO the idea
Of peace conference.
General Carranza issued from Vera Cruz
today. through his Washington axents.
a denial that any outrages either were
committed or contemplated against the
foreigners within his Jurisdiction.
Foreign. Minister Acuma cabIed that
the concentrations In Vera cruz had
been merely manifestations of allegiance
TO CarranSa.
rhe people protested" said Minister
Acuna, when they heard OF the confer
ences being held In the United States IN
an endeavor TO decide upon mattera az
elusively In the province Of Mexican
sovereignty but the people have not
manifested any hostility TO citizens Of any
nationality"
EoreiEners Safe, Says Carranas,
GALVESTON. Tex. Aug. R.-"The
statement that foreigners in Vera Cruz
are In danger is false. The constitutional
ISL government guarantees lives and
property to individuals OF whateyer ma
