Mexican was employed on the Mo-

left for Ell Paso, permitting his wife
to remain at the ranch.
Shortly after the husbands depar-
ture complaint was filed in which
Khan was said to have detained the
woman against her wishes. AS the
Testimony will be confined mainly to
Mexicans and Mohammedans, it is eX-

time for trial.

WARNS AMERICA NOT To
Be DECEIVED By KAISER
Peace Suggestions Now By Germany
Merel ly TO Eliminate Russia from War;
Kaiser Not to be Dethroned; Germans
Believe Their Victory is Now Won.
(By United Press

Copenhagen, May 7.-American
Minister Egan, breaking a diplomatic
precedent, gave to the United States
an interview in which he warns the
American people not to be deceived
by German duplicity into slackening
war preparations under the impress
sion that Germany is ready to quit.
Minister Egan feels that it is imper-
ative on his part to issue this warn
ing, as he deems it of the utmost i'm
portance.
He declared that the relaxation of
American preparedness would increase
the contempt of the powerful Ger
mans toward America.
Peace suggestions by Germany
merely seek to eliminate Russia as a
military force, which, if done, would
give Germany the benefit of supplies
from Russia.
Germany will have constitutional
reforms, but there is not the slight
est reason to believe that the Kaiser
will be dethroned. The German peo-
rle are imbued with The belief that
victory is only a question of time
and they are willing to continue fight
ing and make more sacrifices.

WHAT TO PLANT FOR
HELPING UNCLE SAM
"Plant sorghums!"

That is the advice the University OF
California is giving the farmers of
the state. Since two-thirds of what
the average American family con-
sumes is of animal origin, the raising
Of plenty of feed for livestock is one
Of the great national emergencies
The grain sorghums are better adapt
G.. to California climate than corn anc
a,e very valuable for feeding farm
animals.
With irrigation, soghums may fol
low grain hay and sorghums may be
planted on irrigated land as late as
June 25.
Full information as to how to grow
this drought-ressting forage crop 5
given in a bulletin on Grain Sor-
ghums," written by Professor B. A
Madison, just issued by the University
CT California, and obtainable free by
writing to the College of Agriculture
at Berkeley. Here is some of the
good advice on sorghums given by
Professor Madison and Professor j. w
Gilmore.
Sorghums will grow in hot, dry eli
mates.
Sorghums yield grain and forage.
Sorghums can be planted on any
good average soil, not after May
on unirrigated land, but up to June
2E on irrigated land.
The seed bed should be prepared
thoroughly with two-inch mulch.
For grain, the rows of sorghum
should be planted three and one-hal1
feet apart, with the plants four tt
six inches apart in the rows.

Rear Wheel Caught in Rock

Very Close to Edge.

missed being dashed over the preci-
pice.
The tire was jerked from the rim

were taken it was seen that the car
was within a few inches of the edge
of the cliff. The machine was left
at the spot, the motorists returning
to FL Centro by way of stages.
