 But what is the real commercial values of the common stable manure: Three constituents of this waste are much sought for and command good prices in the worlds markets today Our fellow farmers back East are paying about 200. a pound for nitro gen. 4c. for phosphoric acid, and 5c. for potash in commercial fertilizers, that have not nearly the value the same food elements have when found in stable manure. The humus sup piled the soil by manure is worth even more than the accompanying food elements because huInus is the master key that unlocks the poten- tial fertility in our soils. Some day we wifi be found going to the store to buy this same fertility We are now wasting It will come higher; and no master key, such as we might now have for taking it home, will be found in the sack.

HONDURAS DIPLOMAT
 BECOMES PRESIDENT

WASHINGTON. July 3O.-Dr Al berto Membreno. who left for his home in Honduras early this month, will become president of that country on Sunday. He has been here as ambassador of the Central American republic for three years, and is called upon to fill in the presidency for six months, on the withdrawal of Dr. Francisco Beltrand, the president, who must be six months out of of flee before he can be reelected.
 The new president of Honduras is popularly known here in official cir cles. He was born at Tegnoigalpa July 12, 1859, was educated at the University of Honduras, and became a leading lawyer in his home coun- try. He became judge of the su- preme court of Honduras before en- tering diplomatic life. He was sent to Spain. to Mexico and thence to the United States. He is an able writer and speaker on historical and legal topics.
 The office made vacant by Dr Membreno's call to the presidency is being filled here by Dr. Juan Bustil To Rivera, the Honduran consul gen eral at Liverpool, and one of the po- ItlCdI leaders or ftOnuuTdS.
 pr. Rivera says that there is no grounds for rumors of revolution in Honduras He says there has been some criticism of President Belt rand's efforts to secure reelection but the disgruntled politicians, he believes. are in the minority
 "In view of these criticisms, Presi- dent Beltrand has announced that he Will divorce abosluIely all of his lations with the government during the next six months" explained Dr Rivera, in order that the election may be free and constitutional. He has promised to have no relations whatever with the acting president. desiring to avoid any suspicion of receiving unjustly the active support of the civil or military authorities of Honduras"
 The Honduras general elections will take place in October. After the six months interim. Dr. Belt rand will again assume the presi- dency. if he is elected a the polls. and he will have fulfilled the con stitutional provisions that a presi- dent cannot be elected while in ac tive discharge of the duties of that office.

But when the board placed it's duty to uphold the laws of Arizona above every consideration of politics and expediency the murderers were left single chance but which could not fail them.

THE TYPHOID FLY AND SOIL

We should not forget that house flies travel for considerable distances, and that one of the favorite breed ing places of this dangerous nuisance is the manure pile.

How Aeroplane Aviators signal.

There has been tried in France an
apparatus for signaling from aero
planes used in the war, consisting Of
reservoir of lampblack, which. is
connected with supply of compressed
air
The aviator. by means OF valve
within reach of his hand, can blow
out a cloud of lampblack of size
varying according to the length Of
pressure Of his hand upon the valve,
These small clouds can be seen from
q distance Of six miles, and the move
ment of the aeroplane spaces them suf-
fciently to prevent them running to-
gether. 49,
BY the use OF the Morse code it is
an easy matter to send signals IN this
way from an aeroplane, and In addi-
tiou it saves the necessity OF a wire
less receiving station, which is often
difficult to operate during a campaign.

PROPER TIME FOR TRIMMING
ries Must Go Over His Patch
Yearly and Remove Dead.

Raspberry and blackberry growers
have a task that comes in no other
kind of fruit growing, says the Fruit
man and Gardener. To be sure there
are thinning and trimming in all fruit
plantations or orchards, but the cane
once a year and remove the canes
which but lately were fruit laden.
Where a few days ago you picked
dimes and dollars daily, there are now
dead stalks to be discarded. The
proper time to remove this useless
wastage Is a much-discussed matter.
The correct theory is this, the sooner
the better. That means the months
following the harvest, say August 18th
to September 18th. This is the best
time because the quicker all insects
and disease germs are removed the
better. The brush heap incineration
at the earliest possible date is good
sense.
But practice is usually very differ
ent from theory. Perhaps in most
cases our fruitmen are too busy in the
summer season to do this work. It
Is done In the comparative leisure Of
winter. And that season Is all right,
provided you are not troubled with
rust and bugs. If you are troubled,
strain a point and clean out the berry
patches early-do 1t even ii you must
pay high wages for labor.

LIME FOR THE FRUIT TREES
Gives Favorable Root Growth and i'm
Proves Quality and Quantity OF
Fruit-Grapes Are Sweeter.

To get the best crop of any fruit or
grain there must be the best growth
of tree or plant, and this is what lime
provides, DR.. e. E. Hilgard, director
of the California station. a high au-
thority, says that limestone soils pro-
duce stocky growth of trees so no
ticeable that one can tell the lime
stone section by that character OF
tree growth.
Observation has shown that lime
gives a very favorable root growth
q well-balanced plant, top with roots
and that produces perfection of
Towering and fruition. A large guam
tity and better quality are both dis
tinctly noticeable in lime fertihza-
ton. Hilgard says also that lime Inn
proves the quality Of the fruit:
grapes grown with 1t arc notably
sweeter- The sugar beet industry.
which is regulated by scientific tests
of quality, is most successful on lime
stone SOILS
AS lime is not very expensive, the
right thing for every fruit grower to
do is to make some comparative. tests
With 1t, bearing In mind that . true
carbonate form can be applied at any
season and will not injure either
plants or organic matter by direct con-
tact. In fact. the carbonate mixed
with manure or commercial fertilizer
enhances the value without any
