ROBUSTNESS OF TALK OF
 &Aa INTERVENTION. is

INIEKVENIlON.
 The foolishness of the talk of intervention In Mexico at the present time is apparent to all men who think. While the murder of Amer jeans by Mexican brigands is cause for regret, there would be no sense in sacrificing other lives in an attempt tc avenge the deaths of the massacre victims.
 The Republicans, without an issue tc go before the people of the United States, are endeavoring to make po- lEtcal ctpita1 by arousing the pas sion and prejudice of the voters. The attacks on the administration policy. is nothing but political bun confbe, and 1t is to be regretted that 2 few Democratic members of con- gresst are led astray by such foolish talk. S'' '''' "
 Gov. James E. Ferguson of Texas is cne who is familiar with condi- tons. Here's what he says concern ing those who are assailing the ad- n,inistration:
 Let those men in congress who are now condemning President Will son and demanding that we interfere in Mexico realize the fact that the United States is wholly unprepared Tor war with tMexico,"s said Governor Ferguson. In the present state of otr army and navy it will be the widest folly to attempt the pacifica- tion of Mexico by force, and yet until conditions are improved we must sit silently by and see our citizens mur- Gt red by savages. We need not seri- orsly concern ourselves about de- nand for reparation until we are in a. position to compel our demands to be respected. With an experience of twelve months in daily contact with the flower, of the national army ! know that the number of men in the army and their equipment arc not sufficient to stop repetition of the present outrage every day in the weeK.." ~t '2 ''
 i1here isn't but one thing to do: Re- main out of Mexico until Carranza has been given opportunity to restore 0, der and suppress outlawry. All statesmen realize this is the best policy, and those who pretend to be- l.eye otherwise do so for political reason only. They are most Repuo- licans, hungry for another chance at the public pic counter. -.a~-

there, is much waste from neglect and failure to take proper, care, of things which cost money.
 =. Anyone who has ever been in the countty will readily recall the sight of tools, machinery and vehicles .ex- posed to the elements; poor, -insani- tafy shelter, or none at ali for stock i; chickens roosting in trees. or on fences for lack of proper coops; fruit trees untrimmed, laden with dead limbs and dccaycd spots on the trunks; gardens neglected, houses un- painted, doors unhinged,. shingles broken and rain spouts and door steps out of repair.
 Every one of these symptoms of shiftlessness spells loss of money.
 Extravagance does not always mean an outlay of money, but may involve an, outlay of unnecessary labor, through carelessncss, which means a diminution of income. For instance: |
 One quail will destroy. 7s,O0O bugs and 6,000,00O,OO0 weed seeds annu- ally, according to Mrs. Margaret M Nice of the Massachusetts State University.
