CANNING SEASON WILL
SOON BE HERE NOW

The housewives are getting
ready for the. canning season.
Strawberries and Juneberries
will be the first to be put up and
it will be very necessary. to test
the jars before canning.
The following tests are sug-'
gested by the Office of Extension
Work, North and West, States
Relation Service, to determine if
jars are defective for canning
purposes:
Screw+top jars.-QD Place top
on jar without rubber. Turn
down tight. If the thumb nail
can be inserted between top and
glass, the top is usually defect
i've. (2) Place rubber and cap
in position and screw down light
ly. Pull rubber from position;
release. If the rubber returns to
position between top and jar, the
top is defective.
Glass-top jars.-;(1) Place glass
top on jar without rubber. Tap
with fingers around the edge Of
the top. If the top rocks it is
defective. (2) Wire bald plac-
ed over the top of cover should
60 in with q snap, even when
tightening lever or clamp spring
is up. If it does not, remove
bail from Tightening lever and
bend to make tight. This tight
ening Of ball should be done
every year.

RUSSIAN DIS

In the midst of the anguish Of

well to import.
Prohibition in the great mon
archy came suddenly and sweep
ingly and! without previous prepa
ration, and this fact brought out
more sharply one Of the power
full causes of the drink habit.
As q result the government has
produced an institution which
is far beyond any other yet es-
tabl;shed.
Not one drinker in a thou
sand drinks alone. The vice is
social. 1t is a means of easy
contact among men. Not with
out justice has the saloon been
called the "Poor Mans Club. "
Without it, thousands Of men,
would net have anything at all
that would pass for social life.
The most Of those who drink do
SO less because Of a craving for
alcohol than because Of q crav-
ing for friendly intercourse with
their fellows.
The Russian government has
wisely undertaken to supply the
peasants and industrial workers
Of the empire with a substitute.

TROOPS MAY BE WITHDRAW
Noba Proposes That Differences
Be Settled by Metliatior or
Direct Negotiations

Washington, July 5.-Thc cri-
sis between the United States and
Mexico virtually came to an
end today when friendly and,
concilatory note from the de-
facto government was handed
Lansing and promptly communi-
Gated to Wilson. There, is no
doubt in the minds of officials
that the way has been opened for
an amicableI adjustment Of the
dispute.
Lansing gave the impression
that Caran2a Is suggestion that
there is no pending question BIZ
tween the governments which
cannot be- readily answered by
friendly negotiations, meets quic
sympathy. High Off ficials are
much impressed with the COM
plete change Of tone shown in
the note.
Washington, July 5.-Carranz-
a $ reply to the last two notes
sent him by the United States
government was delivered to
the state department early TO-
day by a Mexican embassy at
tache.
The reply as announced yester
day is conciliatory in terms,
giving assurances Of desire to
reach a friendly adjustment Of
the difficulties between the two
countries. As soon as the trans
lation Of the Spanish text could
he made it was sent to the White
House.
Until Secretary Lansing and
President Wilson have an oppor-
tunity to confer there will be, no
formal comment. But some
state departments officials did
not attempt to concel the fact
that they considered the note
most satisfactory and likely to
remove all danger of war.

COSTS LESS THAN TY-
PHOID OR A FUNERAL

Summer time is fly time.
Enough house flies always live
over winter to give the species
a start for another season, and
no means has yet heen discover
ed Of giving perfect immu-
nifty from the pest. Compare
! tive immunity may be secur-
ed only by the practice Of con-
stant and unwearying vigilance.
That freedom, or comparatively
freedom from flies is worth all
the effort that it costs is becom-
ing more and more generally.
recognized, for there is gbetter
knowledge than formerly Of
the manner in which the house:
fly interferes with human com-
fort, and human health, and the,
menace that it is to the human
life. u,
The fly is born with filth, liv-
es on filth, and carries filth,
from place to place. He bh'owses
on waste, matter which provides
the breeding ground for bac-
terra of innumerable diseases,
and when he returns from his
foraging among the decaying ma
ter in the back yard to meander
over the butter and march across
the: frosting Of the cake, the
carries these bacteria by the
million, and distributes them i'm
partially over everything that he
touches. He is the purveyor Of
practically every bacterial dis
ease with which food can be con
taminated. Because he. spoils
food he increases the size Of our
grocery bills. He is the source;
Of many of our doctors bills;
and because of him many a,
procession wends it's way to the
cemetery many years before the
services of the undertaken and
the sexton need have been re-
quired.
To avoid the fly nuisance the
first essential is to deprive the
insect of food, water, lurking
places and breeding places.
Flood that is to be used should
be kept covered, and that which
is not for use should be destroy
ed. Dirt must not be permitted
to accumulate, indoors or out,
Stable manure should never be
permitted to accumulate, or if
it must accumulate for a short
time in warm wehther, it should
be sprinkled with kerosene. Pre-
misses should be kept ''picked up
all summer long. This requires
less labor than a. case of IVY
phoid, and costs less money
than. a funeral. The house it.
self should be. protected by hav-
ing doors and windows screen
ed. And whenever, after all
these precautions have been TAX
en-, a fly makes its appearance,
"Swat It."
