Mexico City, July 29.-Mexican
federal forces today apparently are
preparing to attack lower California
both by land and sea to wrest control
of the peninsula from Governor Es-

Following Francisco Villas surren-
der the Mexican government feels it
has only to take control of Lower
California to have all the Mexicans
under the control of the government
for the first time since the downfall
of DiaZ.
Some amusing stories were told of
conditions of the surrender of Villa.
1t is said that Villa and MARTINEZ
walked arm in arm in lost friendly
manner around the plaza at Sabinas,
discussing the terms, while each kept
one hand on his revolver.
Washington, July 29-Official con-
firmation of the surrender of Fran
cisco Villa was received today.

Prunes, dates, apples, hgs, raisins,
apricots and peaches are the varie-
ties most commonly known amung
the dried fruits, but pears, cherries
and ioganberries may now be pur-
chased, which, when properly pre-
pared and cooked, form no mean
substitutes for the fresh vxrieties.
In purchasing dried peaches the

more a pound, but the better flavor
and the greater excellency Of the
product more than make up for the
difference In price.
In preparing dried fruits for cook
ing they should be thoroughly washed
In tepid water and the stem ends
from tigs or other fruits must be
clipped away with sharp scissors.
This is very essential. as any eggs
Of insects are always found among
these same stem ends,
The correct quantity Of water for
adding to dried fruit is hard To give
exactly. as when used for culinary
purposes. like the og.nbcrry frappe,
more liquid is required than when
used IL y pie or pudding.
A good general rule for cooking
dried fruits is TO allow water to we'll
cover, or three eupsful Of water to a
pound Of pruEes and peaches And one
quart of water TO pound OF pears.
Many good cooks recommend
tepid water for soaking the raw
cried fruits, but this Ia largely
matter Of taste. Soak them. how
ever whether cold or t<pld water
is - ed for At least twelvr hvurn.
Great care must be exercised In
the cooking that the fruit Ia not
oversweetened, for 1t should DO tho
aim tespeclally when tho fruit Is
eaten as simple stewed fruit) to
develop the natural favor and not tg
more the latent sugar content. Over
