Beverly, Mass., Sept. 14.— Presi
dent T aft gave up hia golf gam e and
all official buaineaa yesterday and de­
voted himaelf to preparing for the long
W estern trip , which will really have
its beginning when he motors into Bos­
ton this afternoon to attend a cham ber
of commerce banquet. The president
will pass the night in Boston, leaving
there for Chicago a t 10 a. m. Wednes
day. Mrs. T a ft exp'-cts to rem ain in
Beverly until November 12, when the
president plans to arrive here to take
her back to W ashington.
The execu
tive offices will close a fte r the presi­
dent leaves Beverly.
W ith the assistance of two servants
the president packed his numerous
grips and trunks.
The president also was busy y e ster­
day assem bling the numerous papers,
documents and reference books which
he will need in the preparation of his
m anuscript. Secretary C arpenter had
collected most of these and it was the
president’s task to revise the list. The
president had no official engagem ents.
Oscar Lawlor, assistan t attorney
general of the Interior departm ent,
was a t Beverly and his prepence led to
a renewal of the report th a t the presi
dent may have som ething to say on the
B allinger-Pinchot controversy before
he leaves for Boston.

A t the same m eeting where Mr.
L ovett was elected to the chief execu

feller and Jacob H. Schiff were elected
m em bers of the board of directors of
the Union Pacific and were also ap­
pointed m em bers of the executive com­
m ittee.

L ob Angeles, Sept. 14.—The South
C alifornia S ta te len»pie was made a
perm anent organization a t a mass
m eeting of citizens of Los Angeles, in
Symphony hall today, with George N.
Black as president and H erbert Bur­
dette and B. A. Stephens aa serectares.
The m eeting was called by the Loa
Angeles R ealty board to offer a proteat
ag ain st the recent action of the sta te
board of equalization in raiaing the as­
sessed valuation of the property of this
county.
Many of those present a t the m eeting
today wore badges inscribed “ South
C alifornia S ta te L eague.’’
The w earing o f these badges and
many of the speeches made reflected a
strong sentim ent in favor of sta te divi­
sion, and this was late r crystallized in
a se t of resolutions passed by the m eet­
ing.

Appeal Made to America for Suffer­
e rs in M exico.
W ashington, Sept. 1 4 .— T ales of
g n a t suffering in the flooded d istricts
of Mexico as told in telegram s receiv.
ed a t the S ta te departm ent today from
Consul General Philip C. Hanna,
hr iught forth another appeal tonight
from the Am erican Red Cross society
for funds w ith which to “ supply our
unfortunate neigiibors of Mexico w ith
the necessities of life .”
The loss of life and destruction of
projuTty is even g re a te r than was at
first supposed, and it is predicted th at
g re at physical suff< ring will prevail
among the homeless during the fall and
w inter.
Th destruction was g re atest in the
country and small towns betw een Mon­
terey and M atam oras. Mr. Hanna says
the Am erican consul a t M atam oras re
ports th a t place under w ater and a seri­
ous condition of affairs ex ists and th at
the railrouds between M atam oras and
M onterey have been washed out.
“ We are sending supplies down the
railroad as fa st as it is opened,” says
Mr Hanna.
He suggests th a t it m ight be possi
ble for the Am erican arm y in the South­
w est to co-operate w ith the Mexican
army and Am erican and Mexican con­
suls in assistin g Mexican towns.
" I t is believed by m an y ," Mr Han
na said, “ th a t more than 10,000(1 lives
have been lost, and thousands are home­
less. ”

La Paz, B aja California, Sept. 8. via
Guaymaa, SepL 14.—La Paz, the old­
e st settlem ent of the California», is in
ruins. The most terrific storm ever
known has w rought havoc in and about
the old pueblo.
Seven lives are al­
ready known to be lost and the shore is
s're w n w ith wreckage from ships and
boats in the roadstead. In many places
the w ater is four fe e t deep in the
stre ets and some of the thoroughfares
are channels for raging torrents.
Communication with the outside
world, except by a steam er, which has
ju st stopped a t the port, iB cut off and
the g re atest m isery exists, especially
among the poor townspeople, the ma-
jo iity of whom have lost everything
they had in the world.
From the country d istric ts comes the
news th a t the devastation there has
beep g re at. W ithout w arning the cy­
clone burst on this “ Place of P eace,”
accompanid by torrents of rain.
The
boats along shore and anchored in the
bay were torn from th eir moorings and
most of them were battered in collision
or thrown upon the beach.
The sky
was overcast, and many believed the
end of the world a t hand, and crowded
the old mission church in a delirium of
fear.

will support.
By the questio n Is
m ean t t h a t th e e n t i r e energy of the
f a rm Is to be devoted to raisin g food
for the d airy cow. A farm In a good
sta te of fertility can be easily a r r a n g ­
ed so t h a t one could keep a cow
to every two acres If the land Is all
good, rich, tillable land.
And one
would be able to raise both the forage
o r bulky p a r t of th e ration, an d the
g r a in ration, too. I t could be done
In a few y e a r s ’ tim e with th e proper
h an d lin g of th e herd on th e farm.
T h re e crops upon th e f arm will do
i t —first, co rn ; second, clover hay, and,
third , peas a n d oats. Of course, the
clover sod would be plowed down for
corn a n d then th e corn g round be pu t
Into peas a n d oats th e following sea­
son. W ith th e s e t h ree foods one can
m a k e a balanced r a tio n for the da iry
cow w ithout p u r c h a s i n g an y o th er ou t­
side food, e i t h e r co n cen trated or
bulky.
T h e s t a te m e n t haa often been made

Chicago, Sept. 14.—Sensational dis­
closures are prom ised in the tria l of
Vincent A. and Joseph A ltm an, charg
ed w ith m alicious m ischief and arson.
A score of w itnesses will be brought
by the s ts te in an a tte m p t to prove
th a t both were guilty of causing the
explosion and fire which wrecked the
Standard Sash & Door com pany’s plant,
May 28. 1908, and th eir testim ony, it
is claimed, will throw considerable
light on the e n tire series of bomb out­
rages which have taken place in Chi­
cago in the la st two years.
Sercetary John J . B ritta in , of the
Am algam ated C arpenters' union, said
today th a t m em bers of the union would
do all in th e ir power to aid the defense.
A ssistant S ta te 's A ttorney Benjam in
J. Short, who will have charge of the
prosecution, said th a t the reason the
Bomb 31” case would not be hea-d
first was th a t S ta te ’s A ttorney Way-
man believed it was not as im portant a
case as th a t of the Standard Sash &
Door com pany’s explosion and fire, and
th a t the penalty was not so g re at.
“ Conviction in the case to be tried
first m eans a penalty of 29 y e a rs’ im­
prisonm ent,” he said, "w h ile in th e ,
Bomb 81’ case there is no arson charge
and the penalty for the offense is only
ten y e ars.”

Look out for th* striped beetles
They often attack and destroy melons
and cucumbers as fast as th s plants
appear above the ground. An appii
cation of wood ashes, air slaked lime,
or gypsum, tainted with kerosone or
turpentine or carbolic acid, will help
to drive them away. If you have only
a few plants you can easily protect
each hill by erecting a mosquito net­
ting guard over It until th* plants be­
