that Francisco Villa is m.tk- ;

tie intention of attacking; C'en. Per-J

at Gen. Funston'- headquarters
tonight. (

rnation is true. Gen. Funston said he
yegarded it as not at ail improbable
that Villa was planning to engr.ge ^
the Americans, probably at some
jmint where they are not great in
strength.
"We may have some excitement
soon." he observed.
The Santa Clara Canyon is so far
south of the southernmost Amen'

of time to get ready for Villa's rom:nt

The Mexican consulate here has 1
received from Mexico City a dispatch
which says that on Col. Maxi- 1

captured in the I.acuna district and (
executed, was found a documenet

"I do not see how any medicine

The government may attempt to L
get potash from kelp, a seaweed rich n
in potash. Farm and Fiieside says: n
"An item has been written into g
the agricultural appropriation bill
giving $175,000 to build an experimental
plant somewhere on the o
Pacific Coast to treat the giant kelp.'(*
a seaweed nich in potash. When dreid
properly it contains about 16 per|s
cent potash. Some private concerns
are already producing potash from' k
it. and a few years ago there was
some hope among optimists that this \
supply could be made to reduce the'
price that the German syndicate 0
charges for its potash.
"There is not so much optimism, q
in view of experience; but, nevertheless.
if German supplies are shut oliip
much longer a considerable part of
our normal needs will likely be'o
supplied from kelp, and from the
aiunite deposits in Utah, which pro-'

Clemson College. S. C., Sept. 8.? v
Do you eat half an egg a day? If r
not, you are not getting your share. J ^
There are enough eggs produced in | f
the United States to allow every r
citizen half an egg for breakfast
daily. Some one else might get your *
half egg sometimes, but that isn't
the only reason for the egg shortage.
There's another cause, and j
here it is. When the cockerels are.,
allowed to run with the hens during 1
the laving season, the fertile eggs,'
I 1
do not keep well, and large numbers
of them spoil during the hot weath-j '
er. Poor packing of eggs for ship-'
\ient also occasions enormous los-;
sos. Just think of the <-gg produeeis
of South Carolina tosing something'<
like three-quarterect of a millionN
dollars annually, due to bad methods <
of producing and handling eggs. j.
Vet that's just about what happens.]
l! the farmer will keep the nests *
clean; provide one neat for everyM

daily; keep the eggs In a cool, dryu
room or cellar; market the eggs at{.
least twice a week in carefully|
racked cartons. and sell, kill, or'
