"Washington.?The Mexican siuvi-' * tion is receiving more careful study ' J>y the American government than i ~hns ?nv snhiect since the PaiTs f peace conference, it was stated at { the state department. This is with ! a view to according recognition to ! j de la Huerta's provisional govern-! Iment provided satisfactory assurances are given that it can and will maintain order and will live up to its obligations respecting the protection of the lives and property of r foreigners. \ Iglesias Calderon, the special envoy sent by de la Huerta to urge j recognition, will ask for another con "ference with Acting Secretary Davis! as soon as he has discussed the sit- ! j nation with the members of his ataff who have just arrived here i from Mexico City. American officials, it is stated authorit.atively, are impressed with the evident sincerity of the expression of Provisional President de la Huerta and of the efforts to bring about order in Mexico but they have taken i ' no action. Workers in the various department of the Mexican governiment have not been changed and the newly appointed cabinet officers leave the work of their offices chieflv to the same men who conducted k the affairs under Carranza. Reports reaching Washington from ? Mexico City .state that foreigners & who went to the Mexican caupital to compose the differences between r their companies?agricultural, minL ing and manufacturing, were forced f to. deal with the very men who | hampered their woric, ana in some c'-wtts directed the confiscation of their property under Carranza and that they air meeting with the same difficulties ar. before.

The time for harvesting is comparatively short. Other crops require attention at tho same time. And the weather is to be reckoned with. This year, when farm labor all over the country is very scarce, the difficulties of haymaking will be much greater, and larger quantities of hay will be lost than usual?unless labor-saving methods are more generally employed. F r ! A great deal of labor is wasted every year during hay harvest, say specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture, not because ] of actual idleness on the part of the workers, but because labor is expended unnecessarily on operations that do not utilize it to the best ad- j vantage.

Or farms where considerable hay i? grown methods must be adopted by j which the greater part of the heavy J labor is done by horses. This will necessitate the general use of certain types of labor-saving machinery, some of them not so common in the East, which have been thoroughly tested and proved satisfactory jn the western part of Uh? United State.-. i ne small hay grower, however, need not make a very heavy inves'mcnt in hfeW haying apparatus, for by roarranging the Working of his crew and using a little more horse labor for the hard work he can add considerably to the efficiency of his crew. Here are some suggestions made by the specialists for avoiding wasl.o of labor in haymaking*. Do not run two or more mowers close together. If the front mowe |has any trouble that causes it to I stop, all of the mowers usually wait I while repairs are made on one. There is a tendency, also, for drivers to waste too much time talking when they stop occasionally to let the teams rest. A good practice when tw<; more machines are use4 *" for each driver to lay off a "land" for himself and work independently, so there will lx? no interference from other machines. Side Delivery UaKt* Is Bed. Do not turn hay by hand. It is too costly. The cheapest and most efficient way of stirring hay in the ^vindrow is wjtji a two-hors$ te<ld$r, One man will do more woi'k tlliin 12 men stirring with hand forks. It is not even necessary to have a man to run the tedder. A boy big enough to drive a team will do just as much work. A one-horse rake operated by a ! man makes raking very costly. A two-horse sulky rake is better, but the side-delivery rake is best. When curing is done in the swath and a hay loader is used, the crew can atart taking the hay from the windrow as soon as the side delivery has made one double windrow across the field.

I I BENSON ISSUES SHARP WARNING r r Admiral Speaks Frankly to [ Foreign Interests on Mer; chant Marine Washington, ? Warning foreign interests not to attempt interference with the development of the Ameri, can merchant marine Chairman Ben son of the shipping board declared that the board was determined to build up an American merchant marine as contemplated by the Jones shipping act, despite threats and propaganda by such interests to defeat the lav. 1 "The United States," said Admiral Benson, " is in earnest in its efforts to place within the ownership by U. S. citizens the control of at least a part of its traffic in imports and exports. If it should by any possible means be held that the | departments of the government lack such authority as will insure their being able to protect American interests in such control .additional authority will ho asked by the administration and undoubtedly be granted by congre ss. "Foreign carrier.1, and those in the IJ. S. interested more in foreign ban American institutions will do well to Met sleeping dogs lie.* " Admiral Uenson's warning was sounded in a talk to representatives I oi Pacific coast chamber of comi mercc and tivule bodies and Ameri- ^ ' Aan railroads who have been u'.TtuI'h^ ed by threats of foreign carriers to divert business from American ports on the Pacific coast because of the section of the merchant marine act permitting a preferential race over carriers with the U. S. on merchandise moving in export and import in American vessels. Such a threat the chairman said, is "futile and idle." i ; I - : crew will have to wait until the rake has gone several tlrtt&S across thre* field. In this matter the extent of the haying operations has to be considered, of course. On vow ? -? f VI J OlllOftl farms the use of the side-delhrery rake might not be economy. If the weather is clear and the hay is in proper condition, there will be no necessity for hay caps or fer further labor till the hay is thorough ly cured and ready to be hauled. Buthay caps will pay for themselves is one year when the weather is bad. They are more especially needed with clover, alfalfa, and pea vines, all of which cure slowly. If hay is to be bunched, the hasd method is too expensive. A twohorse sulky rake can hunch 30 acres or more a day and a boy can drive it just as well as a man. Even more labor can be saved, however, by using the push rake to bunch hay after it has been raked into the windrow. It is a good plan to have two men working together to round up a- i ' tut: ouncnes, since more can be accomplished than when each works alone. It is a waste of time to pitch hay onto a small hayrack on a highwheeled wagon. Use a large hayrack on a low-wheeled wagon. Loading hay with pitchforks is the hardest, slowest, and most expensive way. The men are working constantly, but the horses are doing nothing most of the time. If a load or is used, the hardest part of the work is done hy the horses and the man can handle about 30 per cent more hay. Save Labor on the Stack. The push rake furnishes the most economical method of hauling hay to the stack, ham, or hay press if the distance is not much more than onefourth of a mile. One man, or a boy, with a good push rake and a team used to the work will handle three times as much hay as two men with a small rack on a high-wheeled wagon. Stacking hay with a push rake and an overshot stacker mounted on wheels eliminates nearly all of the back-breaking work of tho w fork method. With a yield of <me ti> one and a half tons to the acre, two men on the stack can easily handle all the hay brought in by three push akos, accomplishing a vast saving in labor and hay over the pitch fork mehtod. Another method not so.good but still vastly better than the pitch* foik method is a stacker equipment ?vith a double harpoon fork. The outfit can be made at home and will cost very little compared with the labor it saves, but harder work is necessary to get. the hay on the stack than with the overshot stacker. When hay is to baled from the field, one man by working in the mcernoon, can round up enough hay which has been bunched by push i-akes to keep the press going next morning until the dew is gone from the hay in the windrow. When the hay is not thus rounded up the crew will lose two hours or more on morn ing" when there is a heavy dew. Carlossness in setting the preea,may result in loss of labor. When the press is properdly set two men can get plenty of hay to it from the stack. * I
