From such statements as Carranza has made relative to the sending of a force of American troops into Mexico | for the running down of Villa and his bands there is reason to believe that he does not intend to do anything which would oppose it. - That it is not welcomed can be understood from the fact that there is a general opposition to anything which savors of an Amer- ican invasion. Such action has always been regarded as the one thing neces- sary to bring all the factions of that republic together, and make them for- get their own differences, and the op- portunity is now presented for Carran- za to show his power at the head of the de facto government by impressing upon them the wisdom of cooperating with the Americans in a determined effort to dispose of Villa. Whether Carranza is really golng to take thiis view of the situation remains to be seen. When he tells the mili- tary governor of Sonora “I am very sorry that conditions are such that the United States deems it necessary to take the action of which you have advised me,” which was sent in reply to the notification that a punitive ex- pedition was to be sent into Mexico, he gives indication that he realizes that there has been a seres of provo- cations which came to a climax with the rald upon Columbus, and that as a yesult no other course on the part of this country could be expected. He understands that the conditions to Which he refers were the result of the failure of his army. to check them, #nd that being the case there is no | killing dogs be made CONDITIONS THAT COME WITH WAR. Not only are the people of Great Britain being brought to the realiza- tion of the meaning of the big war and the part which they must play in it by conscription, but thers is an added meaning which s to be gathered from the economies which they are being forced to practice. Not only is it nec- essary to obtain Increased supplies but it is highly important that there should be a wise use of that which is possessed, and that applies to many things. For the purpose of contributing to the better physical condition of the people and in order to keep them at the highest state of efficiency, laws have been passed relative to the sale of liquor. Since then it has been con- sidered necessary to place restrictions upon the use of tobacco to such an ex- tent that importations were prohibited. Supplies of other articles have been shut off to a considerable extent, among which are paper and fruits, all of which has affected business as well as giving the people a new experience in war conditions. While these goods are of no direct use in carrving on the war, it is to be realized that curtailment is not for the purpose of directly alding the operations of the war department. The effect comes indirectly, for with a lessened demand for these articles the amount of goods which it will be nec- essary to import will be smaller, leaving more vessels free to handle those supplies which it Is absolutely necessary to import in the way of foodstuffs and war material, while the economy will make available the funds for those taxes which fall upon ewery individual because of war conditions. If it was never understood before, it certainly must be now, that war con- tributes nothing to the ease and com- fort of those involved. NEED MORE SHEEP. For a number of years the decline in sheep raising has bcen emphasized by the decrease in the amount of na- tive wool and by the high cost of meat. The sections throughout the east which once contributed heavily to both of these markets have shown @ steadily decreasing interest. When- ever the need of reviving activity in this line of production is advanced, there is always brought up as one argument why the former conditions cannot prevail that such a business is unprofitable because of the havoc which the dogs cause among the flocks. It is unquestionably true that doss are a serious trouble, but the fact that nothing effective had been done to overcome that menace indicates that the problem has not been attacked with the proper determination. Cer- tainly sheep are more valuable than the dogs which kill them, and if either is to. go it should be the dogs. A sheep-killing dog is no £ood to any community. Many of them are rovers and belong to no one while others can have their ownership traced by their tags. In either case the dogs should be despatched on the spot, if it is pose sible, but that being an impossibility it should be obligatory for the owner or any other person to shoot the dog that is found with the telltale marks of the slaughter it has committed. Let this be done and the owner of sheep- to pay the other logical position for him to take | 2mOUNt of damage that they causeand than to consider the move justified. Yet in Mexico it is rather the excep- tion to the rule, when it comes to log- ical aetion, that usually prevails. THE SILIUS CASE. ‘Whether it will be as difficult to find out the cause of the sinking of the Norweglan bark Silius, as it has been in the case of the steamship Persia re- ins to be seen, but it is a case which 1s of especial interest to this country now since it comes at a time when it has been virtually promised that even the merchant vessels of belligerent nations will not be tor- pedoed without warning unless armed. The Silius was, however, a ship un- der the registry of a neutral natlon. It was unarmed and it received no warning, and while this is not the first instance where a neutral vessel has been sent to the bottom under the same circumstances, the interest which this government has in the case is increased by the fact that there were four Americans in the crew. That the lives of these men were saved makes no difference. It was through no effort on the part of the crew of the submarine, if it was a torpedo that was responsible for the vessels loss, that they escaped. Amer- ican-lives were threatened under con- ditions where they had a right to ex- pect and should have been given full protection, If such is the manner in which hu- manity is going to be treated it makes $ittle aifference whether the merchant- Een go armed or umarmed. That is the kind of treatment which has caused the placing of defense guns on commercial vessels, and it is bound to encourage others to do so. If the investigation bears out the reports on ' the caso thus far, it sives assurance { of being another instance where Ger- man promises have become scraps of ~ paper. . PORTUGAL IN THE WAR. _ While it was Indicated months ago | that Portugal would enter the war on " the side of the allies, If it Aid so at “ ' all it was considered that a country © of that size holding the position that it does among nations as to war strength could have but litle or no effect, since its army consists of but 30,000 men and 23,000 reserves, yet there is a service that it can render o the steps would not have been taken Which caused Germany to issue its deglaration of war. The first assistance was rendered when the German vessels which were in Portuguese ports were,seized, thus making them available for the use of the allies in the replacing of “vessels which have been sunic by the subma- rines, or which may ‘yet be sent to the bottom, and“henceforth the Portuguese army, such as it is, can be looked up- on as a reserve force for the allles, in Europe as well as in Africa. From all indications Portugal is not likely to find conditions much differ- ~ent than they have been in the past. Germany s not in a position to do any such undesirable animals would soon disappear. State grown wool is always in de- mand and brings a good price. Ameri- can wool is never produced in such quantities as to supply the demand and it is time that the sheep ralsing industry throughout the east was given new life and encouragement. EDITORIAL NOTES. Any blacksmith could have foretold that the battle of Forges would have been a hot one. The man on the corner says: To know on which side ones bread is but- tered is the beginning: of wisdom. There is an occasional bit of evi- dence to the effect that March is not opposed to 2 limited appearance of the sun, With eggs selling for $1.50 a dozen in England there ought to be no waste product frcm the cold storage houses henceforsh. From the standpoint of the major- ity, Vermont must have accepted the turn down of statewide prohibition in good spirits. In spite of the good picture the sec- Tetary of the war takes a lot of peo- ple are going to insist upon judging him by the way he administers the office, Now the claim is made that a Eu- ropean nation is trying to create trouble between the United States and Japan. What has ex-Congressman Hobson to say to that Inasmuch as Carranza wants to send his troops through the United States, he can have no objection to United States troops going into Mexico, as long as It is all for the same purpose. ‘While one poet declares “What is beautiful is good,” he would have his trials trying to persuade some people that it applies to the almost daily snowstorms which March has been furnishing. WOMAN IN LIFE AND IN THE KITCHEN SUGGESTIONS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE. Never let ashes accumulate in_the ash pan of the cooking range. They absorb the heat before it reaches the oven.

WHITE HAIRED WOMEN. per can save time by us- s of attractive carthen- both The reason why there are so many charmingly dressed white haired wo- men and so few charmingly dressed women with pepper and salt hair is Dbecause during the transition stage of the coiffure woman nas not learned to adjust herself to it. By the time the hair has become snow white its wear- er has found out that the colors of youth are no longer possible and has Qdiscovered the new range of shades which, once forbiden, are now possi- ble to her changed coloring. For in- stance, no gray haired woman should wear brown—to go even further, no gray haired woman should select a brown walled room as her back- ground. Green and navy blue are her chosen shades. Peacock blue and paradise yellow are exceedingly be- coming, but ciel blue and fawn color she should not wear. The woman who has always found black ieils chic and becoming discovers to her chagrin, after her locks have turned gray, that black veils make her look older, rather haggard. Then one,day she makes a_happy discovery about white veils. The white veil is the peculiar property of the white haired woman. It softens her face and lends it freshness and it blends beautifully with the silver tone of her hair. TO CLEAN OVEN SHELVES.

PICTURE HANGING AN ART. The matter of picture hanging pre- sents many problems to those who have not time to give to a careful study of arrangements, and our walls, instead of being restful and well bal- anced, ate too often a hodge-podge of all sorts and conditions of art. In going over one's pictures elminate all but the choicest and best beloved and try to group together the pictures Wwhose subjects are somewhat related or which have a similarity in frames. Indeed, even when subjects are closely related it is not possible always to hang pictures together, owing to a too great difference in the kind of frams. As a rul, any room looks better, es- pecially small rooms, where only one color frame is used on all the pie- ures. SEPARATE SKIRTS. The demand for separate skirts has been stimulated by the application of fashion to this garment, to which practically every style appearing in dress and suit &kirts is now success- fully applied. In this development the sport skirt is an espectally big fac- tor. The separate skirt in highest favor continues to be short. The plain skirt frequently reaches just below the tops of the high boots, but the skirts showing broken lines are somewhat longer. NEEDLEWORK NOTES. Baby bibs of heavy linen or pique, padded and then quilted, with an end- ing of small scallops, will be very practical. The sheer, beautifully embroided baby bibs, which, after all, are not serviceable, can be turned Into lovely little yokes for baby’s best dresses, where' the embroidery really shows to the best advantage. One of the quickest ways to sew lace on a garment is to crease the hem ex- actly as it is to be, then unfold it and stitch the lace just a trifie above the crease on the wrong side. The hem is turned again and sewed in place. pair of knit boots. They are crocheted from bright colored wool and the stitch is much like that used for the ordinary crocheteq bedroom slippers, except that the boots are made high enough to cover the ankle well. They make a warm foot covering for the first days of convalescence, when the low bedroom slipper, no matter how warm leaves the ankles more or less unprotected. Every mother knows who soon the little bables’ arms grow too large for the ehirt sleeves, while the body of the shirt is still large enough. This can infrants’ white cashmere hose for 15 cents. Cut the feet off and overcast neatly into the armholes, putting in a litle gusset under the arm if neces- sary to enlarge armhole. The leg of the stocking makes the sleeve and the top gts nicely around the little wrist. LAUNDRY HELPS. To have your clothes just as clean and white as possible put a teaspoon- ful of peroxide in your soaking water. This acts as a harmless bleach to your linen. A slice of lemon in_your boiler will also have the same effect. ‘When bluing clothes add just a lit- tle common table salt in the water. It helps to distribute the bluing and pre- vents the cloithes from oloking streak- ed_or patched. How many have heard the old leg- end, “The girl whose apron is wet, 'tis sid, while she's over a tub, will nover be wed” Fortunately, this catastro- phe may be easily prevented by drap- ing an old newspaper over the top of the washing board to absorb the water, which otherwise would soak into her dress.
