Advices. from Southern Mexico stated that the envoys sent by Car- ranza to discuss the general situation in Mexico with emissaries of Zapata had a long conference today, which was in every respect satisfactory. Of- ficials now expect that Zapata will co- operate with the Constitutionalists in maintaining peace in Mexico. Word was received here tonight that Fernando Iglesias Calderon, who is to be minister of foreign affairs in Car- ranza's cabinet, had met with an acci- dent in New York and was suffering with a broken leg. He was to have proceeded to Carranza’s headquarters and would have been one of Carranza’s delegates in the forthcoming confer- ences. Members of the Constitutionalist junta in Washington said they inter- preted Carbajal's appointment of the peace commission as meaning that the first chief probably would enter Mex- ico City before the middle of August. They predicted that the parley at Saltillo would not last tong and that the Carbajal envoys Would aecede to Carranza’s demand for an tncondi- tional surrender. READY FOR CROP MOVEMENT National Banks’ of South and West to Receive $34,000,000 of Govern- ment Deposits. Washington, July 27,—Money from the federal treasury will be deposited in national banks‘ throughout the country again this ‘fall to facilitate the movement of crops and promote busi- ness generally. Secretary McAdoo an- nounced tonight that he would put out approximately $34,000,000 and that he stood ready to increase the amount to any extent necessary to meet the country’s needs. The secretary's estimate of what will be needed is b2sed upon replies from 3,000 national banks to a recent treasury department circular asking whether any unusual demand for money was expected this year and for what purpose. Last year the depart- ment inaugurated the custom of dis- tributing funds in the crop handling centers, depositing about $35,000,000 of the $50,000,000 Secretary McAdoo had decided to use for the purpose. A ‘statement from the department tonight said: “These replies (from the national banks) have been carefully anulyzed and fully confirm the optimistic bulle- tins of the agricultural department as to the prospects for unusually large crops. They—also indicate a decided promise of greatly improved business conditions and enlarged business ac tivities throughout the country. FEDERAL GRADES FOR GRAIN House Committee Favorably Reports Measure Designed to Protect American Farmers. Washington, July’ 25.—Estublish- ment of standard federal grades to which all grain sold in interstate and foreign commerce under government certificates would be required to con- form, is proposed in the Moss bill, fa- vorably reported to the house yester- day by the agricultural committee. The secretary of agriculture would be authorized to establish standards and The bill contemplates eliminating dif- ferences between export and domestic of the same quality, but it is not designed to affect the shipment of grain in bond. Representative Moss of Indiana, au- thor of the bill, explained in the report .eigh commerce in grain now is con- ducted under certificates from the gov- ernment. Consequently, he said, the measure would establish a country wide uniformity of grain, save the accomplish other reforms.

Farmer and Stockman. ie Be good to the birds, but don’t le the weeds go to seed for them. One is never too old to learn, but sometimes he is too old-fogyish. Folks display a good deal of )char- acter by the way they go about hav- ing a good time. : As soon as fortune begins to look up with some folks they begin to look down on others.

When a fellow starts in to give his thoughts an airing he usually sounds like they needed a thorough renova- tion all right. Whether the porch is used as a summer bed room or not it should be built or remodeled so that it can be screened. An open-air place free | from flies and mosquitoes is a luxury these hot days and nights. Those who are disposed to worry about the weather are right in their | busy season now if they live on the farm or depend on the crops for their living. The experienced farmer knows that it will not do to “‘bank’’ on fine prospects of a crop before it \is at least in the shock. Old Bill Williams says that he does not have any great respect for a lazy person, but still it is sorter nice to have someone once in awhile to lie Aronia in the shade with him to talk ‘0. : When haying begins it may be said that we are getting ready for winter. It seems strange that with so long a time to get ready in that cold weather usually rushes down upon us and finds s0 maay unprepared. _I have noticed the farmers who are sticceeding the best and making the most money are the ones who are the keenest to know the newest methods. There is no money in fogyism, ad: very poor sort of satisfaction. Now is the time to make the repairs and changes in the barn that we thought of last winter but could not make at that time on account of the weather. Perhaps it needed more windows or better floors, doors, stalls or a better calf pen. The season for easy changes-is here. A fine shady dell, with a running stream coursing through it, appeals | to the farmer not to work too hard. There ought to be time for a little play as we go our way through life, even if the work does press us some now and then. Take.time for a pic- nic, alittle fishing trip, or just to lazily stroll around through the woods once in a while. ° It will help to round out life and make it worth living. No doubt the reason why the far- mer soon becomes a good auto driver is that he cuts up so many queer ca-| Pers “‘all by his lonesome.’’ The other day I paid a visit toa neighbor and found him running his auto at a mark, He had set two light stakes in the ground six feet apart and the trick was to run_and ‘back the auto between them from different angles without touching. Some day his practice will pull him out of a tight place and will save him more than the small amount wasted in ‘‘ammuui- tion’’ in-shooting at the mark. And now the Chautauqua season is upon us. These institutions are great things for the farmers. They have largely taken the place of the old- fashioned camp meetings. The taber- nacle'in a shady grove has a strong in the hot weather. It is good to greet the neighbors. from all over the country. There is entertainment, and some instruction, from the plat- form. Life is spiced with added va- riety which the occasion affords.
