METHODIST BISHOP
PRAISES OBREG0N
DR.. ThirkieId Reports Great
Improvement in Mexico.
Visits White House.

General conditions in Mexico were
briefly described to President Hard
ing today by DIR. Wilbur p. Thirkield.
resident bishop of the Methodist
Episcopal Church in Mexico. who has
only recently returned to the United
States. Political affairs in that coun-
try were only slightly touched upon.
but the bishop told the President
that he is convinced u great improve
ment is noted since President Obre-
gon'S Inauguration.
Bishop Thirkield who was former
ly president of Howard University,
was accompanied to the White House
by Bishop W. F.. Mcdowell of the
Methodist Episcopal Church. who
took this occasion to present to the
executive expressions of good wishes
from the Baltimore annual confer
ence.
Believes Outlook Bright.
Mexico today" Bishop Thirk ield said.
such as has not been experienced
for ten years The strength of the
present administra ton is Seen in the
fact that the several attempts at in
surrection have been successfully put
down. Gonzales is not regarded seri-
ously, and the outlook for good gov
ernment is bright.
''The primary aim of our church in
Mexico" he continued. is to help the
people through educational and moral
uplift, especially to depressed groups.
about so per cent of whom are illit-
crate. Our church is not there to war
against existing institutions. but to
render service to those who need it
most. My motto is, Mexico, Next in
Neighborhood, Let Us Make First in
Brotherhood. The tragedy is that
these two nations through years have
not properly understood each other.
Asked as to his views on the much
disputed article % of the Carranza
constitution regarding the confiscation
of oil lands, Bishop Thirkield said
this topic involved matters which as
a churchman he at this time did not
feel warranted to discuss.
Obregon Interested.
President Obregon," he said, has
shown deep interest in the two most
recent enterprises of the Methodist
Church in that republic looking to the
social and Industrial betterment of
the people. One is the proposed
Aztaces Social Settlement in Mexico
City. the other the establishment of
farm school for boys.
Later in the day Bishop Thirkield
conferred with Secretary of State
Hughes.

FAVOR MINE TRUCE
FOR THREE MONTHS
British Owners Confer With
Employes-Propose Wage
and Profit Standard.
Ey the Associated Press.


LONDON, April 25.-Renewed effort
sto find a basis for the settlement of
the dispute between the coal miners
and the mine owners were made this
morning, when representatives of the
owners and the executive officers of
the miners federation met here in
joint conference with representatives
of the government.
The owners submitted a. detailed
statement of their proposals. and it is
understood the possibilities of a tenn
porary settlement were under dis
cussion. The owners. it was stated,
were prepared to advocate a tempo
rary agreement for period of three
months. after which a permanent Set
tlement would become operative. this
embracing a standard wage and a
standard profit.
The temporary agreement would be
in the nature of a compromise be-
tween the national wage basis desired
by the miners and the district basis
desired by the owners.
Shortly after noon, the conference
adjourned until tomorrow. when Mr..
Lloyd George. the prime minister. VIII
preside over its deliberations.
Railroad and transport workers
have initiated a movement not 10
handle coal shipped into the United
Kingdom from other countries. and 1t
was said affiliated organizations
abroad were being approached with
a view to stopping all coal consigned
for this country.
Omcial Report of Meeting.
An official report on this mornings
conference. which was attended by
the president of the board of trade,
the minister of labor. the secretary
for mines, the coal owners and the
miners representatives. says the con-
ferees considered statement by the
owners containing proposal Tor Il
durable scheme providing that the
coal industry should depsnd on It's
ability to pay and that the country
be divided into agreed areas.
Standard weages for the men "ould
be fixed as against standard prohts
for the owners. under the proposal
the standard of wages being a hrSt
charge on the industry The surplus
revenue of an area would be divided
between the owners and the men.
Division Into Areas.
A temporary agreement for the
transition period would provide that
the country be divided into five areas
and that for three months reductions
in wages in each area should be uni
form. not to exceed an amount to be
fixed by the government, the owners
and the men for each of the three
months, respectively.
No paymnt would be made for days
on which the men did not work. For
each month of the temporary agree
ment the owners would not share in
the surplus revenue or take the
standard profits, if wages for this
reason would be likely to be reduced
The owners proposed that the gov
ernment make necessary contribu-
tions in any area to meet the maxi
mum wages, and that the temporary
period of the owners proposals should
extend to July 81, after which wages
would depend on the financial ability
of the industry to pay under the dur
able scheme. The wages to be paid in
August. under the latter plan. would
be calculated by reference to the June
results in each area. No loss in sur
plus or standard profits would be car
ried forward. but the net loss would.

METHOD FOR CONTROL
OF WORMS in PIGS

What makes the difference between
thrifty pigs and unthrifty ones? Nat
urally. there are many causes, includ-
inc breeding, feeding and shelter, but
a principal one and one that may
easily be overcome is worms - the
common intestinal round worms.
These parasites are often largely re-
sponsible for the high death rate
among young pigs, and many cases OF
so-called thumps are the result OF
worm Infection The average farmer,
possibly, would give a great deal to
be able to stop this loss.
A system of swine sanitation to Grad
icate worms is recommended by the
United States department of agricul'
ture. and is simplicity itself. First II
is necessary to clean the narrowing
mems with hot water and I've. Then
wash the dirt from the skins of the
sows before narrowing and put them
in the clean pens. Within two weeks
after narrowing remove the sows ahd
pigs to a clean pasture, and keep the
Young pigs on clean pasture for al
least four months. In order to pro
duce strong, healthy, profitable pigs
il is of course necessary that they
have good feed, water and shelter IL
addition to worm-free surroundings.

The papers presented and addresses
were all of practical nature and Gre

Ross X. Tiffany of Spokane, presi.

Washington Irrigation institute, were
reelected. Included are G. c. Finley

burg, and o. l.. Waller, Pullman.
The institute debated whether its
scope should be enlarged to include
the whole question of land settlement.
committee report, presented by T.
B. Hill of the state development bu-
reau of the Seattle Chamber of Com
merce, was adopted favoring coopera-
ton with any organizations formed to
promote reclamation of logged-off or
swamp land, but opposed changing the
form of the institute.
The report of the nominating COM
mittee that all the present officers be
elected so that in case the legislation

ment of the scope of the institute
Western Washington men could be
added to the official family. This would
ipdicata that tho com ittee renOrt will
be favorable to mailing the institute
a general reclamation rather than an
exclusively irrigation affair. The in
stitute would then work for logged-off
land reclamations as well as for des-
ert reclamations. The matter of land
settlement was given extended discus
sion. 1t was urged that longer time
must be given for payments if the To-
Gators were to succeed.

shifted and now the greater portion
pours through the Puget Sound ports
of Washington. And so, this state Of
an area of much less than hundred
thouasnd square miles, has the trade
originating in over six hundred thou
sand square miles, and is destined to
be the most densely populated of any
state of the Union and, may add, it
is my belief, the wealthiest of any of
like area
am aware that this statement may
seem very optimistic to many readers,
but sincerely believe the statement
is not overdrawn. For nearly two
years past / have carefully and crit
ically examined the resources of Wash
ington and Alaska commercially they
are as one); noted their developments
and progress and must say, although
optimistic from the beginning, l did
not fully grasp the factors to inspire
the faith that was in me. 1t is i'm
practicable in this writing to give
facts and figures. l have recently COM
piled this in book form (see foot note)
If | could live to participate in cele-
brating the century of Washington's
life (barely possible, though highly
improbable), / would expect to see
more than quadruple the present pop
ulation and wealth and far and away
greater increase in the agricultural,
horticultural and manufacturing indus
tries, the three solid pillars upon
which the future commercial expan-
sion of the state and its assured great
ness rests.
To know your state is certainly a
valuable asset in business; it is more,
| it is conducive to contentment; and
contentment is a great factor in con-
| tinued good health and promise of
longevity.
We have the most equable climate
of any state, the healthiest Of any
! (proven by the official records, hence,
| if we but seek and obtain knowledge
of our state, life will be happier, our
patriotism stronger and our common
wealth more prosperous. God speed
the day when the importance Of these
| facts shall move us to provide for a
more intensive study in our schools,
that our children may better know
their own state.

While most of the land in the proJ-

ing. it is believed that much OF it
will be devoted to alfalfa grain and
stock. as we'll as other crops that
promise a quick return. Already con-
siderable land has changed hands IN
authorization of the completion of the
system. which will add many fold to
the value of the acreage under the

A plan for bonding the territory to

worked out and will be submitted
within the next few weeks. Instead
of having one huge irrigation dis
trict. the entire area Will be DIVIDED
