MEXICAN PRESIDENT
UIIMIbtU YIIM f LAN TO RETAIN CONTROL
KOOALES, March 27. A. R. Cardenas, wealthy merchant of Nogales, Sonora, and supporter of General Alvaro Obregtm In the latter's campaign for the presidency of Mexico, charged lit fimnfll tstAmAitt Tnfli!a tmriltf trV
day that President Carranza Intends either to remain in power after the election next July or appoint one of his followers to the presidency. In order to do this, Cardenas said, Carranza has sent General Manuel M. Dieuguez to Sonora to arrange for military control of the state, replacing all troops loyal to Obregon with soldiers friendly to the government. The plan, he said, includes the deposition of Governor Adolfo De La Huerta, as constitutional chief executive and the establishment of a Btrict military government that would control the election. The result of such a move would mean an immediate : revolution with consequent danger to Americans in Mexico and along the border, Cardenas asserted.

The Farm and The Farmer By William R. 8anborn
There Js such a thing as a too active hog market; a market with too wide, unnatural swings, too sudden see-saws and drops. Chicago shippers have just had that sort of an experience, as witness the two following quotations: "Price of hogs goes to the highest in five months." This was the market page headline in the Chicago Tribune on Wednesday, March 24. It was the story of the Tuesday market, when the bulk of sales went at .14.60 to $16.15, and a top of 116.35 was made on several loads. There was active buying on Bhlpplng account on Tuesday; But note what followed. A decline set in on Wednesday. There was a break of 15c to 40c on that day. Now note what happened on Thursday: Read the Tribune headlines of Friday morning: "Price of hogs goeB to lowest point in weeks." The editor goes on to explain that: VThe top at $15.75 was 50c off from the high time on Tuesday, with the average at $14.75 showing a decline of 62 cents, compared with Tuesday, the high day of the month." Pork and Lard Lower. The Friday market was a continuation of the Thursday decline. The top on Friday, $15.40, was 95c below Tuesday's top. The bulk of sales was quoted at $14 to $15.25 on Friday, or from 60c to 90c under the price paid on Tuesday. This slump in raw material finally affected speculative offerings of pork and lard; pork declining $1.07 per barrel, and lard $1 per hundred pounds on Thursday. It is worth noting that both steam and kettle rendered refined lard are cheaper now than ony of the various blends and substitutes, mixtures of cottonseed oil, etc. You will find this true at your meat market. If hogs and cattle have been on the toboggan, poultry haa been steadily advancing for some days. Consider 43 cents per pound at wholesale for live hens and young roosters in Chicago, with turkeys going at 40 cents and ducks at 32c to 38c live weight, with any old rooster worth 26c per pound. Don't these prices make the back yard poultry flock worth while? The western markets received the largest number of calves for nearly a year, this week, and prices have suffered accordingly, the break being $2 from the recent high for prime veals. Men who have hay to ship have been In luck of late. The market has had but one side for weeks. While at
times the advances have not been great we have noticed no declines to record, in any central market. Number 1 timothy struck $38 on track in Chicago, on Thursday, with standard timothy and light clover mixed selling at $36, this being also the price for first grade alfalfa. A Billion In Land Sales. From the figures so far gathered It is a possibility that the land sales in the Chicago federal reserve district will approach a billion dollars. The present strain on credit In the middle west is claimed as due to the enormous amount of money required to finance these sales and complete the transfers. The out of town banks are still carrying large loans in some sections and are unable to liquidate promptly at the financial centers. It is feared that one tendency of this speculation In land will be to decrease production, partly because of the boosting of farm land rentals and prices, and because, also, of the farm labor shortage.
Farm Federation
"To regulate the supply of live stock according to the demand and to keep an even flow to the markets now is one of the biggest problems of the farmers of Indiana and states in the corn belt," says George C. Bryant, field agent for the United States department ofagriculture. Mr. Bryant is working with the Indiana Federation of Farmers' associations, which proposes to hold meetings all over the state next Wednesday, at which the stock supply problem is to be discussed. "The lack of stability of the live stock markets has caused the farmers to lose thousands of dollars," he said. "Every live stock producer in the state should get behind this movement"

Conditions of the Tests For these tests two cars were used. Both were standard seven-passenger touring care completely equipped with spare wheel and tire, gas, oil and water compartments filled, full tool equipment. Both had top and windshield up. Each car was driven by the same man in all tests carrying one observer. The carburetor adjustment in each car was the same throughout. One car had 3 .7 5 to 1 gear ratio, the other 4 to 1 gear ratio both are standard gear ratios. Without passengers, but with full equipment, one car weighed 3880 pounds, the other 3890. The acceleration and high and low speed tests were made on a brick speedway on both sides of the track. Hill climbing tests were made on an ordinary gravel country road, with the roadbed in average condition. A survey of the road shows a straight rise for about 1000 feet with a grade of 8.16 and grade of 6.14 for the entire length of 1 775 feet. The rise starts exactly at the bottom of the hill, and the speed at bottom, 1000 foot point and top of hill were taken from the speedometer. The tests were all made under good weather conditions and no perceptible wind.
