Outrages Recalled.

Outrages Recalled.
The note recalls the subse-
quent outrages and denies that
Oregon notified any of the of
hcials of the United States that
the de facto authorities would
not permit further American
troops to enter Mexico, as Car
rama s note asserted.
Concerning Carranza S
charge that the United States
has placed every obstacle in
the way toward obtaining paci-
fication in Mexico, the note
says that the United States has
given every possible encour-
agement to the de facto gov
eminent toward pacification
and the rehabilitation of Mexi-
co.
Continuing, the note says:
THE unconcealed hostility of the
de facto subordinate commanders to-
ward the American troops and the
efforts of the de factO government to
compel their withdrawal from Mexico
by threats, and show of military force,
instead of aiding and capturing the
outlaws, constitute menace to the
safety of the American troops and to
the peace of the border AS long as
this menace continues, and there is
any evidence by the de facto govern
ment or its commanders to use force
against American troops instead of
cooperating, the United States will
not permit munitions of war or ma
chinery or manufactures TO be ex-
ported into Mexico.
"In view of the activity of the Car
rama forces, and lack of cooperation,
it is unreasonable to expect the Unit
ed States to withdraw its forces"
The note denies Carranza's charges
that the United States cannot allow
bandits upon the border to invade and
plumber American territory with i'm
punity, and when pursued. seek safe
ty across the Rio Grande.
THE Mexican government invited
the United States TO support its as
surances of friendship with real. eff
fective acts. which can be no other
than the immediate withdrawal of
American troops For reasons herein
set forth, this request cannot now
be entertained. Whenever Mexico will
assume and effectively exercise the
of pursuing and punish
ing the bandits and raiders. the Unit
ed States will be glad to have the de
fecto government fulfill its obliga-

1t mentions the Scott and
Obregon conferences, and says
that it not only was on account
of the partial dispersion of the
bandits that it was decided to
begin withdrawing the troops,
but equally on account Of the
assurances Of Carranza that his
forces were being augmented,
and would be able to handle
the situation. 1t said that the
United States was willing to
ratify that agreement, but that
Carranza refused.

back, rather than rubbish.

way of plants, vines and shrubs

Hardy azaleas are among our most
brilliant, hardy shrubs.
All the spireas, herbaceous or shrub,

Let the green things be something

WORK ON THE LAWN

How are the lawn and home
grounds in general? Are they all that
should make summer home life enjoy
able and pleasing sight to the pass
erby?
If the lawn is patchy and bare in
spots, keep on seeding it the whole
summer through; the seed will final
ly catch and fill up the bare places.
White clover is a fine lawn plant,
but many find that 1t dies out after a
few years. White clover, as all the
clovers, is a biennial, completely dy-
ing after the second year. If the lawn
is kept closely clipped, white clover
seed should be sown each fall or
spring to insure permanent stand.
The same result may be secured by
not moving in the fall, allowing the
plants to blossom and seed.
The Colorado statesman., 1916-07-15
TOO MUCH WATER KILLS
PLANTS
BY LIMA r. ROSE.

More plants in the window garden
are killed every year by overwatering
than In any other way. Some persons
labor under the delusion that water
must be applied daily, and the conse-
quence is their plants are literally
drowned out, unless they happen to
have the best drainage.
Others go on the "little-and-often"
plan-that is, they apply water in
small quantities whenever they hap
pen to think Of it.
The result is the surface of the soil
is kept moist and from this the owner
takes 1t for granted that the soil be-
meath must be properly damp.
Nine times out of ten examination
will show that an inch or two below
the surface the soil is dry. OF course
the roots of the plants cannot do their
work under such conditions. The plant
soon sickens and eventually dies and
the owner wonders what caused the
trouble.
Now. in watering plants several
things have to be considered First,
the nature of the plant. Some like a
"
crate amount
Second, the soil. A close, loamy soil
dries out slowly, therefore 1t will not
require as frequent or as large appli-
cations as light porous soil from
which moisture evaporates rapidly.
Third, location and exposure must
be taken into consideration. Plants in
the sun or a very warm place, will
need good deal more water than
those in full or partial shade or low
temperature.
Fourth, the size of the pot must be
reckoned with. The soil in a large pot
will not dry out for two or three days.
but the soil in small pot will become
quite dry every day.
Fifth, dormant plant requires but
little water. 1t is not in a condition
to make use of much water and an
oversupply of it will surely result in
harm. When the plant begins to grow
then increase the quantity and proper
tion this to the development made.
All these things must receive due
consideration by the amateur who
would know how to care for his or her
plants intelligently.
Strdy them. Experiment with them.
In this way you soon become familiar
with the individuality of each one and
you will be able to give to each the
care 1t needs.
We are often asked for some rules
for watering plants. 1t is impossible to
make any rule that can be followed
strictly.
The only rule have ever been able
to give is this: When the surface, of
the soil looks dry, water Use enough
to thoroughly saturate all the soil in
the pot.
You can tell about this by the es-
The Colorado statesman., 1916-07-15

cape Of some at the bottom of the pot.
Then wait until the dry look appears
on the surface again and apply water
as before.
But, as / have said, one will have to
modify this rule to fit the conditions.
1t is a general rule, subject to such
change as may appear necessary to
the intelligent plant grower, who does
.lot believe in treating all lhe plants
exactly alike.
Give fertilizers to growing plants
only. A plant standing still needs
none and will be injured by the appli
cations of the food it is not in condi.
tion to make use of.
