Struck a Popular Chord.

Struck Popular Chord.
Governor Hammond struck a popu-
lar chord at Chatfield last Saturday
when he stated that unless man in
this country is willing to concede
that America is the worlds greatest
country he owes the community a
debt, the payment of which calls for
his departure to the country he likes
better. Too many faultfnders are
strutting around with absolutely no
idea as to how present conditions
could be bettered, but who are
possessed of chronic crouch. The
governor evidently had these kind Of

had to think about to substantiate
this fact was the marriage of their |
daughter, Nell, five years before. She |

The result was that after Nell and |
he had gotten settled in their own
home he rarely went to visit the old |
folks, and the relations of the two |
families had been quite strained ever |
since. ...- ~...-
Mrs. Rose had made ."this outland-

She had caught her husband sneak

husband. In her autocratic way she /
had taken the flowers away from him.
'tNo overtures, James," she had de-
cided, until that rebellious husband

helpmeet.
'By heck, I'll do it!'
Up from the tree stump with re-
markable activity Rose leaped. His
eyes danced, his face flushed, he
pounded the air with both fists. He
danced about in a state of tremen-
dous excitement.

mighty problem. He Strengthened up,

It is beyond comprehension that this vast num- Der of birds, so injurious to a great industry and so destructive to much valuable food should be protected by law. Their only redeeming feature, as far as can see, is that they act as scaNanVers for the canning people, who are willing to dump refuse al rIOst into their front yards to be taten up by these ravenOus birds.

WHERE BIRDS SLAUGHTER SAL
 MON

One of the most interesting publi- cations issued in recent months by the United States government is the Re port on Alaska Investigations" made by E. Lester Jones' Mir. Jones spent many months in the far northern ter ritory Investigating the fishing indus try. the progress and possibilities of fox farming, of which much has been written with more or less accuracy in the magazines.
 The section dealing with the fishing industry is full of most interesting and instructive matter In telling of the enormous damage done to the sal mon by gulls. the author of the re- port says:
 Of the birds, probably the most de structive to fish life are the gulls and terms. It is difficult to state ade- uuately the amount of damage they do and the menace they are to the future supply of salmon To make this clearer. l will cite one experience l had in western Alaska at Sierra creek. l inspected this stream on a rainy day at low tide and as I ap- preached it at the mouth my atten- tion was attracted by a movement of

maintaining foreign legations in Mexico City probably will be reached within a few days.
 Another embarrassment in the situa-
 ton is the fact that Carranza two days ago issued another invitation of the
 diplomatic corps to come to Vera Cruz where, he said, conditions were not so uncomfortable.
 The ministers have refused to accept Carranza's invitations because they 1 feared this would be regarded as a rec ognition of his government. A stream of diplomatic inquiries poured into the state department today concerning con- l ditions in Mexico City. The Spanish | and French ambassadors were among I those who called.
 | The latter stated that in q dispatch | he had received from the French lega- | ton in the Mexican capital conditions were described as exceedingly bad Some of the diplomatists conferred to-
 gether concerning their dispatches and | the uniform opinion was that affairs in
 Mexico City were rapidly growing in tolerable.
 l State department officials said no 1 message had been received from the
 Brazilian minister of Mexico City to- | day but on Vera Cruz advices they based their hopes that Carranza would
 instruct Obregon to permit the inter- ! national relief committees. composed Of
 wealthy members of the foreign colony | to take charge of the situation. l President Wilson discussed the gen
 erai situation with Secretary Bryan
 today but pending the outcome of the
 representations with Carranza, no fur
 ther step has been planned. General Funston, commanding on the border, reported to the war department
 that a request for tents for twenty six | MeXicans wounded in the fighting near
 Sabinas had been received by Colonel 1 Hodges in command at Eagle Pass. The Carranza commander at Piedras Negras had announced that he intended | to move his command against the ad- vancing Villa force leaving only small
 guard. General Funston instructed Col. ], Hodges to permit the wounded to cross the line only in case of great emergency
 and to require guarantees from Mexi-
 can authorities that their expenses would be paid.
 1 Advices to the state department from l Tampico said that Carranza command . CTS there apparently expected an at tack in the near future and were rush Il ing work on the defenses night and day A Carranza force was reported enroute
 to Tampico from the Tuxpam district It is also reported in Tampico that General Gonzales. with 12,000 Carranza
 troops was preparing an attack on Monterey.
 Another Tampico dispatch said the Carranza forces were defeated at Valles to the west, few days ago and had fallen back to Palmas, on the road tC ] Tampico, where fighting was in prog ress.

STANDARDIZED

High Cost of Living Cut Down by New System of Grading Perishablc Mer- chandise-Housewife Can Help Herself

That careless buying is one of the causes of the high cost of living is generally admitted by economic students. Greater care on the part of the housewife or farmer in secur- ing standard merchandise would gen erally result ir increased satisfaction and less complaint about prices. The best is the cheapest, and no article has ever won a position as d nation- wide big. consistent seller without having real merit behind it. Wheth = CT its Stetson hat, Maydole ham mer or Royal baking powder, the principle is the same. The princi- | pie may now be applied to many pershable commodities, formerly sold | in unknown packages, and through organizations of such a nature that 1 fruit or produce he purchased came from, or who raised or shipped it. 1 Today, noriceably in the fruit lines the growers have combined to form strong associations to control grad ing and packing their product, and have so standardized their offerings
