WILSON REFUSES TO WITHDRAW TROOPS (Continued from Page 1) B | paraders, who marched to the various public offices, led by bands and car- rying the national emblem as evi- dence of their willingness to defend the country’s honor and dignity in case of war. More than 10,000 persons gathered in the great square, bounded by the cathedral and municipal palace where they were addressed by General Car- ranza, War Minister Obregon and other members of the government. General Carranza told the throng that Mexico was not seeking war, but would not avoid it at the cost of na- tional honor. An Uutimatum. San Diego, Cal., June 20.—An ulti- matum, amounting practically to a declaration of war against the United States was served last night on Commander Arthur G. Cavanaugh of the gunboat Annapolis, by General Flores, Carranza governor of the state of Sinaloa, according to a radio- gram sent from the Annapolis at Mazatlan and received here by Ad- miral Winslow, commander in chief of the Pacific fleet. Owing to the low powered radio set of the Annapolis, difficulty has been experienced in communicating with the gunboat, but enough facts have come through to show that General Flores has taken a hostile stand against the Americans, and that it was his refusal to permit Am- ericans to leave Mazatlan that result- ed in the clash Sunday between the blue jackets of the Annapolis and Mexicans characterized as Carranza soldiers. "The exact substance of his ultimatum has not yet been received. According to the reports received, the commander of the Annapolis ad- vised all Americans in the vicinity of Mazatlan to leave as soon as pos- sible. A boat from the ‘war vessel, con- taining Ensign O. Kesing, Paymaster I Andrew Mowat and a number of blue jackets approached the wharf, En- sign Kesing being under orders to arrange with the Mexican authorities ‘| to get out all Americans. Without provocation, it is re- ported, the Mexicans opened fire on the Americans. el Scientific Farming Aol THE “LAND POOR” FARMER. Farms Are Often Either Too Small or _ Too Large For Succe [From “Unprofitable Acres,” by J. C. McDowell, United States department of agriculture 1915 year book.] The size of the business often has much to do toward making the farm profitable. Department of agriculture farm' management records show that farms are often either too small or too large for the most successful farming. There may be too few as well as too many acres. A man may not have enough land or he may be “land poor,” thereby rendering all his acres unprof- itable. A Wisconsin farmer with a large family was deeply in debt. His farm consisted of 120 acres, half of which was under the plow. The remainder was woodland and espensive to clear. IFor twelve years the farmer had not Leen quite able to meet his interest. To him the whole farm consisted of unprofitable acres. He finally decided that the farm was too small for the most efficient use of the labor avail- able. Having an opportunity, he bought an adjoining eighty acres of DIFFICULT LAND TO CLEAR AND MAKE PROFITABLE. cleared land, going in debt the full amount. From that time on the farm was prosperous, anid in ten years the entire farm was paid for and enough additional money saved to build a good bouse and barn. The smaller farm had been unprofitable because the over- head expenses were too high for so small a business. In this case acres were made profitable by increasing their number. A North Dakota farmer owned three s of land. His farm ly mortgaged, and for a number of years be had not been able to pay interest in full. His family was small, and for most of the work he had to‘depend on hired help. He concluded that under the circumstances he was working or trying to work too many acres. Finally he sold one quarter sec- tion and paid his debts. Seven years later he had $5,000 in the bank. In this case all the acres had previously been unprofitable because there were too many of them. CLEANING UP THE FARM. Profitable Busi; s Done Renovating Rundown Homes. Cleaning up the farm has been com- mercialized, put on a dollar and cents basis, says the Farm and Fireside. In northern Indiana there is a firm of real estate dealers that buys up rundown farms, puts a force of men on them to paint the . buildings, whitewash the stables, repair the fences and generally renovate the old places until they are ready for mew bu, These buyers are usually brought in_from a distance and in many instances pay an advance of from $10 to as high as $40 to the acre. In Kankakee county, Ill, is a farm- er real estate man who makes a handsome profit in putting a clean face on farms. His methods are more thor- ough and his results more lasting than those of the real estate firm mentioned above. He does not stop with the buildings, however, but goes much deeper in his cleaning operations. He takes the farms purchased under his own personal supervision, uses lime if necessary, drains the farms thorough- ly, starts a three year rotation of corn, wheat and clover, applying commer- cial fertilizer in liberal amounts on both corn and wheat, and, in sieort, puts the farms on a paying basis. Kjach year he makes a profit sufficient caore than to pay the interest on his invzst- ment as 'well as an excellent profit whenever he makes a sale. All of which goes to show that if one plans to sell a farm it pays handsomely to clean up before bringing a prospective buyer on the premises. Diseases of Plants and Trees. Diseases of plants do much injury from a lack of application of reliable rurative methods. The most impor- tant of remedial and preventive meas- ures combined is cleanliness. Spraying alone may be overdone, whereas when used in combination with other meas- ures the success may be greater and the cost less. It is estimated that in the United States the annual loss from oat smut is more than $6,500,000, from loose smut of wheat $3,000,000 and from bunt or stinking smut of wheat more than §$11,000,000.
