LONDON, Aug 23.-Nicholas Roth stein, one-time London newspaper man. is the new "boss" of Persia, ac- cording to information received here.

 Rothstein was British subject Before the war he was noted for his radical writings. and he frequently said things that greatly displeased the British government.

NEICHb0R'S CHICKENS
BECOME OUTLAWS

Neighbor's chickens. bane of the
gardeners existence and the night
mare of the flower growers dreams,
are outlawed by the acts OF the 1871
legislature, copies of which have just
been received here.
Scratching chickens have ruined
more than one we'll kept flower PED
and the grief stricken owner has swal-
lowed his wrath without any apparent
recourse. The big trouble. of course
=: lies in the fact that if one man pre-
. fers fried spring chicken to home
grown asparagus, he always finds linn
self living next door to the obstinate
fellow who thinks succatash of his
own production is a far superior dish
to the best fried chicken ever
sizzled.
d. However. it has been the truck
: growers VINO have complained OF their
neighbors' hobbies and not the poul-
, try raisers.
Attention of the proud truck grow
+. ers and careful lawn tenders is called
TO the new law which makes rene
gades of the pesky chickens. Persons
who are troubled with their neighbors
livestock will find relief in the courts
henceforth.
The new law PROVIDES that IL Snall
be deemed trespass for any person to
permit turkeys, chickens. geese or
ducks to wander on another person
property, providing five days notice
has expired. Prosecutor Beckett will
take the necessary action to stop the
outrages when notified by property
holders.
He reports that he has received
many calls from city residents com
planning of the depredations of chick
ems lately The scratching fowls tear
up gardens and flower beds with reck
less abandon. but it is believed that
the enforcement of the new law will
result in the owners keeping them
spenned up.

Mexico to sign a treaty or protocol
as a condition to recognition
1t was also asserted that it was
not an embodiment of the report on
Mexico submitted by Albert E. Fall,
present secretary of the interior,
when he was member of the United
States senate. This report has been
welcomed by newspapers here. which
for some time past had INDUCED in
editorial attacks upon the secretary.
Appa rently newspapers here have
been more agitated oyer Secretary

policy of the United States toward
Mexico than in rumors that President

The Home Garden

Spray materials most commonly
used for killing insects are Paris
green, arsenate of lead and white he'll
libore
Paris green is usually purchased in
the form Of a dry powder. 1t is best
to use with the same amount of lime
to prevent injury to the leaves. Add
a little water at first and make into
a thin paste This will easily dissolve
and will readily mix with a larger
amount Of water. About four ounces
of Paris green to so gallons of water
is generally used.
Arsenate of lead is obtained in both
paste and powder form, though the
former is generally used. Mix with a
small quantity of water first and then
add the desired amount of water to
get the desired volume. Usually two
pounds to fifty gallons Of water are
used although sometimes the solution
is made stronger. Some persons add
a little Stacked lime to the solution
but it is generally thought not es.
sential
White hellibore is commonly busted
on plants but may be dissolved and
used at the rate Of one pound to fifty
gallons of water.

participation in the benefits of such
an institution.
While the property, located about
eight miles southwest of Richmond
would remain the property of Wayne
county, and the capital expenditure be
taken care of by her, the two other
counties would pay only for service
rendered. Mr.. Kidner advised making
the beginning according to funds avail
