MANY PREMIUMS TO
JUVENILE FARMERS.

Premiums aggregating $1,000 will
be distributed among the boys and
girls exhibiting in the juvenile farm
extension department at the Louisi-
ana State Fair, November to 6, in
elusive. The awards will be made in
the Boys Corn and Pig Clubs, the
Girls Canning and Home Economics
Clubs. Poultry Clubs, Agricultural
High Schools, and in blowing live
stock and corn judging contests by
Juvenile exhibitors.
No branch of the farm extension
work in Louisiana has enjoyed great
or progress than that Of the juvenile
farmers. Boys and girls in the va
rious parishes have become actively
interested in this work by the thou
sands, and many of the best farm
products are produced by these young
men and young women whose success
lies in the fact that they are intense
ly interested in the education they
are receiving, which includes instruc-
tons in the improved methods Of
farming. There is great rivalry among
their clubs, and judges in the Boys

vas because they had grown tired of

was because they had grown tired of
his meanings, or whether the kanga-
roo was only pretending to be sick.
For such queer actions he had never
9een before, as most animals he had
seen were so brave when they were
SICK, and never made a fuss when
they were not sick at all.
1.-THE kangaroo was just spoilt
though-there were no two ways
about it-but one day when the ami
mails were all to be given a special
treat, little Fairy Silver Wings, who
had heard of the kangaroo's sickness,
whispered to the other animals to
leave him behind to twist his tail and
moan while they had their game of
ball.
Then the kangaroo set up a howl
ing such as never had been heard in
animal land, for he didn't want to
miss a party-just as Fairy Silver
Wings had said, so when they all
thought he had learned a good lesson
they went back for him. How
ashamed he was when the animals at
first snubbed him, but he never made
a fuss again, for he had had great
fright that he was going to miss
party through his foolishness."

He declared for preparation among

country as well as material prepare

He asserted that a nation that only
looked to the garnering of dollars in
its industries and paid no heed to the
preparation to defend itself did not
deserve to live and have a place
among the forces of the world that
make for humanity's progress.
Lincoln said this country could not

Dublin, via London, May 2.-All the
leaders of the instruction are re-

Four Courts district has been recap

London, May Am official state
ment issued by the official press bu-
reau regarding the rebellion in Ire
land says:
THE general officer commanding the
Irish command has reported the sit
uation in Dublin much more satisfac-
tory. Throughout the country there
was much more to be done, which
would take time, but he hoped that
the back OF the rebellion had been
broken.
Saturday night messengers were
sent out from the rebel leaders in
Dublin to the rebel bodies in Galway,
Clare, Wexford, Louth and Dublin
counties ordering them to surrender,
and priests and the royal Irish con-
stabulary are doing their utmost to
disseminate this information.
AS regards the situation in Dublin,
rebels from the areas OF Sackville
street, the post office and the Four
Courts are surrendering freely. More
incendiary fires took Place in Sack
vile street last night, but the fire
brigade is now able to resume work.
1t is further reported that up to
the present 707 prisoners have been
taken. Included among these is the
Countess Markievicz.
The latest information from Ennis
corthy shows that the rebel leader at
this place does not believe the rebel
leaders message from Dublin, and has
proceeded to that city in a motor car
under escort to verify the information.
In the meantime a truce exists.
AT New Ross, Corey, Wicklow, Ba-

a night of desultory sniping which
awakened into feverish bursts of ac-
tivity at varying intervals, the sixth
morning of the Irish rebellion was

u. S. ARMY TO STAY
president REFUSES TO RECALL
TROOPS FROM MEXICO UNTIL
ORDER is RESTORED. 81
IoBREGoN NOTIFIED BY SCOTT
lChief of staff Ordered Not to Make
Any Terms With Minister of War
Conditioned on the Withdrawal OF
American Force From Mexico.

Washington, May 8. - President
Wilson will not withdraw from Mex
t1co until Villa has been captured or
killed.
Notification to this effect has been
given to the CarranZa government
Through General Obregon in confer
ence with General Scott at FL Paso
and Juarez. The moment Villas
apprehension or death has been Of
ficiaIly reported the United States
will order every soldier home.
Further, the United States has no
desire to remain in occupation OF
mexican territory one moment
longer than absolutely necessary. 1t
has no desire or intention to pene-
trate Mexico beyond certain points.
If it will ease the situation of the
Mexican government, the president
is prepared to order General Pershing
and all the forces under his command
to take station in northern Chihua-
-hua; this on condition that the Car
rama troops Immediately display &C
tivity in the hunt for Villa and CO.
operate with the American forces in
running him down.
More concern was expressed on
Monday over the situation than at any
time since the troops entered Mexico.
General Oregon seems to have in
structions of a precise character or
his military mind does not permit him
10 depart from them.
General Scott, on the other hand. is
empowered to use his discretion On all
points save that requiring the con-
tinuance of American soldiers in
Mexico until Villa has been caught or
killed.
The authorities have some fear that
Obregon, finding the president indis-
posed to withdraw, will terminate the
negotiations. AS Carranza must do
what Obregon desires, it is apparent,
the first chief will be compelled to
back up his subordinate,
War would be the undoubted result
of such a situation.
Therefore General Scott is expected
to use all the diplomacy of which he
is possessed to continue the negotia-
lions and finally to bring Obregon
around to the view that the good rela-
lions of the two countries demand an
adjustment of the differences which
exist as a result of the failure to in
fiict punishment on Villa.
If the American troops can remain

have been exterminated, interven-
tion, it is regarded here, would become
a remote probability.

D!ADDY'S EVENING
k1EAIR TALE s.
By NARY GRAHAM BONNER
FAIRY AND KANGAROO.

Il must tell you story tonight"
commenced daddy, "of the sick kan
CARGO in the zoo.
ITO tell the truth the kangaroo
wasn't sick at all. He simply thought
he was but he succeeded in making
the keeper think so to. This pleased
the kangaroo as all he really wanted
was to have fuss made over him.
''The strange thing about his i'll
ness was that the keeper couldn't
imagine what was the matter with the
kangaroo. He had a perfectly good
appetite for he couldn't give up eat
ing just to pretend he was sick, for
really and truly he knew he was just
pretending
Now, this puzzled the keeper, but
he thought there must be some kan
CARGO sickness where the animal
could still eat, and yet be far from
WELL
THE keeper became so worried over
the kangaroos strange sickness that
at night he would get up, to see if the
kangaroo was asleep. Every time he
went to look, the kangaroo was sound,
sound asleep, breathing very quietly.
The keeper thought to himself that
this must be a good sign. for if he
happened to be suffering from indi-
gestion he would certainly be moan
ing and having bad dreams. Finally
the keeper decided the kangaroo must
have heart failure.
THE next day the keeper sent for
the doctor and :i.o loctor examined
the kangaroo's heart He said that it
was one of the strongest hearts that
he had ever examir ed. And the keep
er was still more puzzled.
THE kangaroo used to sit for hours
and hours just playing with his tail.
Sometimes he would think it was time
to show how badly he felt by crying.
So he would first look as if he was
just being able to keep back the tears,
and then he would act as if he could
keep it up no longer and would shake
with sobs.
Now this kangaroo had always
been spoilt by his mother. When he
was very, very young he could always
have everything he wanted, so moth
ing was ever really big treat.
HE always got sick at parties be-
cause he ate too much, and his moth
er would never stop him, and on holt
days he always was allowed to turn
things topsy-turvy.
But during this pretended sickness
Of the kangaroo his family were the
only ones not worried about him. The
keeper couldn't imagine whether it
