Sheppard Benson of the United
States navy Admiral Benson was
born and reared in this state. He
was selected to command that portion
of the naval work in tee world war

MIR Goat Industry Growing In Inn
portanCc.
The production of milk goats has
for a great many years been an i'm
portant feature of the livestock in
dustry in many European countries,
but 10 has never secured very strong
foothold in the United States. In this
country the goat has always been an
animal of more or less ridicule. as
the majority Of the people do not
realize the possibilities of certain
breeds or types that have been bred
for many years along definite lines,
say specialists of the United States
Department Of Agriculture.
In Continental Europe milk goats
are largely used by families unable
to keep a COW, and great benefit is
derived from having fresh milk at
hand and at a low cost In those
countries the goat is often spoken of
as the poor mans cow"
During the past several years con-
siderable interest has been manifest
ed in the milk-goat industry in this
country. The fact that the goat will
supply sufficient milk for the average
family and can be kept where it
would be impossible TO keep a COW is
beginning to appeal to many people.
especially those living in the small
towns and the suburbs of the large
cities.
The milk-goat industry is only in
its infancy in America, the depart
ment specialists say. This type OF
goat is adapted to our country, and
the industry should become of great
or importance every year

Oven Drying Saves Time, Fruit, and

Drying small quantities of surplus

time-saving economy. Soup ingre-
dints. such as cabbage, corn. celery,
onions. tomatoes, turnips, potatoes,
carrots and lima beans may be sepa-
rately dried and stored to be com
bined for use according 10 taste. Dri-
ed parsley and celery tops are valu-
able additions to the seasoning shelf.
Currants. gooseberries, and straw
berries are better canned than dried;
hut variety OF other fruits, including
black berries, black and red raspber-
ries, plums. prunes. figs, apples, april
cots and peaches may all be dried at
home Dried peas, young beans,
cauiflower. okra. and spinach are
considered by specialists of the L. S.
Department of Agriculture to be less
satisfactory in flavor than other dried
vegetables.

should be spread thinly in baking
pans or pie tins and these should be
placed upon racks so that they are
not in direct contact with the oven

be left open so that the water vapor
driven off may pass out, and the fire
should be so regulated that the ma

2 u. S. WAR SHIPS

No Explanation Given For Return

knowledged early today by the crui-
ser Cleveland and gunboat Sacrament

| ficers explained that the orders sent

acter and that this probably account
ed for their failure to sail before this
time
Mexico City, July 11-United
States warships, which on Friday
were reported to have been with
drawn from Tampico, returned to that
port yesterday afternoon. Dispatches
reaching Mexico City last night said
the Sacramento and Cleveland again
were anchored at the mouth of the
Panuco River, and, although no ex-
PLANTATION was given for their return,
it was presumed the vessels withdrew
to the high seas for twenty-four hours
in order to avoid the technicalities of
international law and then returned
to Tampico.
When they first arrived off the
PanucO River last week it was said
their mission was to protect North
American interests" 1t is consider
ed not improbable the vessels will
continue this maneuver until the sit
uation clears.
Reports from TampicO state that
the situation remains quiet and tnat
no disturbances have taken place.
Gen. Arnulfo Gomez, commander of
Federal troops in that district ar
rived there Saturday night following
a conference with officials in this
city After a hasty survey of the
situation and an examination of re-
ports he advised the Government that
reports regarding conditions at Tam
pico had been exaggerated and that
there was no need for alarm. The
number of men out of work was
greatly overestimated, he declared,
but he gave no definite figures.
The confederation of workers of the
State Of Vera Cruz, representing fif-
teen unions, met at Orizaba yester-
day and drafted an appeal to the Am

Farming Risks Greatest In The Plains
States.

States.
Risks i'm the production of three
great staple crOps-cOrn, wheat, and
oats-are greatest in the Plains
states extending from Texas to North
Dakota. This general fact is estab-
lished by the average deviation of the
yield per acre from the average yield,
computed by the Bureau of Crop Es-
tima'es, United states Department of
Agriculture. for these three crops for
each State from the records of so
years.
On the other hand the North At
lantic and the Western States are re-
gions of comparatively low risk, or
deviation of yield per acre from the
average, for wheat and oats, and
the entire Atlantic coast and the
West for corn.
The great corn belt, with its enor-
nous production and surplus above
local consumption, is, after all, prom
inently subject to risks of weather,
insects and disease in the production
of crops, and, while It would be go
ing too far to say of this region as a
whole that the results of its agricul-
ture are either "a feast or Q famine"
yet there is a tendency in this direc-
lions as the area covered by the av-
erage becomes more restricted to
county, township and individual farm.

Loss of Appetite.

As a general rule there is nothing
serious about a loss Of appetite, and
If you skip a meal or only eat two
meals a day for a few days you will
soon have a relish for your meals
when meal time comes. Bear in mind
that at least five hours should always
elapse between meals so as to give
the food ample time to digest and the
stomach a period of rest before a
second meal is taken. Then If you
eat no more than you crave and take
a reasonable amount of outdoor eX-
ercise every day you will not need to
worry about your appetite. When the
loss of appetite Is caused by consti-
patton as is often the case, that
should be corrected at once. A dose
of Chamberlain Tablets will do
