The Capital Will Like Zoning system

Property values have risen and have

bitterly opposed to the move at first
now give it their most hearty COM

''The coming system bars manufac-'
turing plants from invading residential
sections, and thereby insures the man
who buys home against having a
boiler factory or some other similar
plant established next door, or even
in the same neighborhood On the
other hand, it secures to the manu-
featuring element absolute domain
over certain sections, and leaves out
let for growth and development such
as any going concern is bound to
need.

health service was asked for aid and
the first mechanical dairy resulted.
The process used is described as the
''emulsification of butter fat obtained
from unsalted butter in a solution of

Chemically pure water was used in
the mixing and careful tests made of
the product, which proved to be lit

VIZ ASHINGTON.-A squadron of nine
w war vessels has been formed to
patrol the waters of Central and South
America, operating as distinct COM
mand from either the Atlantic or Pa
cific fleet. Rear Admiral Benjamin
Z. Bryan has hoisted his pennant on
the Dolphin and formally taken COM
mand of the first Latin-American
squadron.
His force consists of five light and
speedy cruisers, the Denver, Calves
ton, Des Moines, Cleveland and Ia
coma, and the gunboats Asheville, Nj
agara and Sacramento, with the Dol
phin, formerly the official vessel of the
secretary of the navy as flagship.

The squadron will have its base at
the Canal Zone, which will enable it
to transfer in whole or in part from
the Atlantic to the Pacific, and makes
possible the speedy mobilization of an
adequate force to meet any emergency.
Admiral Bryan will have several thou
sand men under his command, and
the character of the fleet will permit
of the close patrol even of shallow
tidal waters.
1t was explained at the navy de-
partment that the object of creating
the Latin-American squadron was to
centralize command of all vessels on
duty in those waters and eliminate
complications as to assignment of YES
sells for special duty there.
1t is known, however, that the State
department has shown great interest
in the report from naval and other
sources Of the recent disorders in
Honolulu, and the various exhibitions
of ill-feeling aroused by the three cor
nered dispute over boundary lines
which has involved, Chile, Peru and

These Farmers Make No Large Profits

figures on farm profits covering
i seven years in two areas and five
years in a third, made public by the
United States Department of Agri-
culture show that comparatively few
Of the farmers in the groups studied
have been making large profits during
the recent years of comparatively
high prices.
The figures indicate chiefly:
That the farmers average7return on
investment increased from per cent
in 1913 to per cent in 1918.
That most of them are making less
than $500 cash per year over and
above the things the farm furnishes
toward the family living, which, how
ever, constitutes a very important fac
tor.
The three groups of farms studied
are located, respectively. in Washing

try, seven years.; Clinton County,
Indiana 600 farms, corn belt, seven
years., and Dane county, Wisconsin,

swer. 1t will be too late afterward."
For weeks Jane had been almost
afraid of this man. Now his cheap
melodrama suddenly made him seem
ridiculous. She looked him boldly in
the face and laughed. Did you ever
want the mOon?" she asked. Then
quick anger came to her and she add
ed, "You-you jackal in VOLTS skin Z"
Just then her call came and she ran
| out and mounted her trapeze in blithe
contempt of the elephant mans threat.
Some featherbrain threw a lighted
| firecracker from the seats into the
midst of Snyder's elephants. Another
followed-a fusillade. The pachs,
thrown into panic. became 4 trumpet
ing, milling mass of giant flesh TWEEN
| ty old circus hands were among them
IN moment, combating the tumult.
Out of the ruck charged old Don, big
gest of the herd, with Snyder hanging
desperately to his ear. Straight at the
center pole the elephant rushed, wrap
ping his trunk about it in seeming
frenzy striving to tear it from Its
place.
Snyder, jabbing the animal with his
steel ''persuader" and shooting COM
mands in Hindoostanee, appeared
quite powerleSs to undo the beasts

tents central support
Good God! The girl !" From a thou
sand lips the cry arose. For as the
elephant tore at the center pole it was

presently it must, Jane Dray, sitting
in brave helplessness high up on the
bar of her trapeze, must die very
dreadful death.
figure in a scarlet coat, speeding
across the ring, struck Snyder to the
ground with single blow. 1t seized
the great barbed hook from the train
er's hand as he lay. 1t leaped agilely
to the bend Of the elephants trunk
where it curved about the big spar. 1t
reached far up with the persuader apd
struck the animal once over the eye.
With squeal big Don swung loose
from the pole, backed away and stood
trembling, glaring with terror-strick-
en- eyes at the PROSTATE trainer on the
ground. Then, suddenly and without
warning, the elephant took two quick,
sloping steps forward, put I. great foot
on the breast of the Unconscious
Snyder, and leaned five tons of weight
upon it.
OF course after that the Brahmin
and the low-caste roustabout had to
talk things over and certain matters
developed. Ellis Noble was saying:
"Yes, they found out that Snyder
had bribed crooked student to start
the rumpus, and from that and what
you tell ne it seems to be clear
enough that the elephant wasn't free
agent when he tried to pull down the
pole and kill you" "
The girl did not seem d cply inter-
ested in Snyder's guilt or fate. "But
tell me-what are you doing with the
circus?"
ooh, you just have to do such stunts
to get the real color of things you're
going to write about. 1 joined for a
week. Then l saw you. Well, Burke
let me stay and kept his mouth shut.
I'm going to keep on roustabouting as
long as you keep on trapezing. Which
shall it be, Jane-the road or the
home? Will you be a circus queen, or
empress of one mans life?'
Jane thought of her one blancheG
moment of terror, of the difference he
tween Snyder and Noble, of the life
ahead-of love that IS clear and pure.
And she said:
''The promotion is accepted-dearw
