Mexican poems are fond of war be-
cause it gives them the luxuries OF
ample meat and clothing, says John
Paul Dana, former news editor OF the
Mexico City Herald, and a noted
newspaper correspondent. "Why are
the Mexicans fighting among them
selves, and how does it come about
that there is one rebellion after an
other? is the question which has been
asked me time and again, asks MIR.
Dana. Answering he says: The
men who are in the various Mexican
armies are, and have been, having
the best times of their lives since
Francisco Madero started his rebel
lion something like five years ago. To-
day they would rather have war than
peace, and it does not make much dlf-
ference about the character OF the
war"
NJ. N. Webb of Mann Creek in
formed Signal representative Sat
urday that he has an apple grown
and picked in 1918 which is in fine
state of preservation. Mr.. Webb says
he sorted his apples in the spring OF
1914 and laid several of them on a
shelf in the cellar. Of the number laid
away one is still perfectly sound and
looks as good as last years product.
These apples had no special care
and never saw cold storage, but were
kept in a splendid state of preserva-
ton by the uniformly cool atmosphere
of the cellar in which they were Kept
1t is well known fact that cold stor-
age fruit will not keep long after be-
ing exposed to the elements, but 1t is
remarkable that fruit kept in cellar
has kept for two years and half and
demonstrates that for home use the
cellar is the best place for storage
