statement with ret renc to the condi

are stationed was to-day Issued by the
American Board of 'Commissioners for
Foreign Missions! f, J
"Offlclanetters sent recently from the
rooms ot the American Board of Com
missioners for Foreign Missions, contain

Turkish missions wra;"ppuned by the
Turkish offiuials. The lttturs were sub
tniuently dvlivoreil, but wittt,, the Turk
ish word ' examined ' written on the en
velope. . This Indicated that tha Turkish
government is attempting to assuui all
authority over the mail of foreigners.
" When the reports of. the massacre of
Christiana in the tfassoun district of
Kastern Turkey became publio after
more than two months of suppression
on the part of tbe Turkish ottlcial. the
Ottoman government was alarmed at
widespread publications in the American
and Knglish press. Under pressure from
foreign power the Sultan agreed to send
a oommissioner to Investigate and report
upon tha outrages. In view of this
promise of the government the repre
sentatives of the European powers at
Constantinople decided to rslt for the
report before taking any positive action.
But attsir ttiis decision by tbe powers.
and while they were waiting fur lite de
parture of the Sultan's commMon,
which had been appointed, and which
was to make full and Impartial investi-
rations of all the affairs rspoi ted by l lie
English Consul, a well as by many in
dividual from the Sassonn-district, the
Turkish government gave out the ap
pended official sUU'Uvnt ot the case,
which statement was printed in the pa
pers of 'Constantinople. All pspcr
nrlnted in Tnrkev are under elms edi
torship, and no paper could refuse to
print the statement under penalty of lin
medists suspension. Hew tho Christ
ian periodicals were comiwlled to print
what they knew to be false. The state-
mentis as follows: , '
" 'Some ol the European psners
sUted. contrary to the truth, that U
Armenian villages nave oeen oestrovtH.,
and in the meantime persons have bean
massacred by the Turkish soldiers in the
district ol rJassoun. Diners, in onier 10
masnifv these reports, have asserted
that th iw ( the outrage was pre-
vant4 ,fiOii leaking out to obsta

Deputy Sheriff Hall, standing, Just this

Andrew Brison, a prisoner who was
escaping Into ' Tennessee. Hall was
tried and convicted of murder In this

the ground that "in contemplation ot

when the killing was done. He was
then arrested and held as a fugitive
from Justice. The Governor of Tennes
see sent for Hall on requisition. ' Hall
plied for discharge, but Judge Bellow
refused to discharge him. He then ap
applied- to the Supreme Court, and the
court, by a majority of one decided he
must be discharged, because, not having
been in Tennessee at the time of tbe

and at the end of tb first weekUwt
about balf of them out, could I till, the
space thus made vacant with fresh es
and hatch them successfully f G. W.
A., G uthri county, Iowa. i ; ;
. This question is on that nine oat ol

tenth tost th matter himself by actual
experiment. I am one of these, I could
see no good reason why It wss not a good
idea and entirely practicable until 1 tried
lt.'"TCverytulng work smoothly until
the batching begins; then th operator
sea his mistake. Repeated experi
ment have thoroughly satisfied me that
each hatching should be 'placed In th
niacnin af on time, and no egg added
thereafter even if two-thirds are tested
out as Infertile. I will give brief gefieral
direction for th guidance of beginners,
and will at any time explain more lolly
any particular If so desired.
Practice with the machine until yoa
can ran it steadily day and night with
out any change in the temperature of
the egg chamber. Yoa should be able
to do this in a week. Then pnt in the
esga. This will lower the temperature
of the egg chamber very much unless th
eggs are first warmed. 1 prefer warm
ing nicola before putting in. Very early
in the morning i tbe best for starting,
for th thermometer can be looked Wt at
least once oach hour until 10 o'clock the
following nifht, If it remains steady.
everything is right.-. At tbe end of ten
days yoa may test out the infertile egs
and pnt In one pan of lukewarm Water
lot moisture. At th end of two reeks
th beat ot th hatching egg will be
such that you must watch closely lest
the temperature rise too high. Be sure
that it never goe above 103 degrees If
there must be a variation, 86 (Wreee is '.
far better than 105. If the air in the
room Is constantly warm and dry, place
a second pan of lukewarm water in the
machln at th end of the second week.-.
If th room 1 in a' cellar and mohrture
how on th window, on pan of water
under the eggs is quite sufficient. When
the esrxs ben fa to batch don't open the :
door for love nor money. Have the ther
mometer fastened so tb chicks, cannot
knock it over and se that the temper-
atur doe not rise above 103. ' Don't re- -
move th chicks from the chamber until
they bave been hatched at least twentv
hours; then quickly place them 'in a
brooder heated to 100. When yod buy
an incubator se that th.egg tray' fits
th chamber, ao that newlv hatched
chicks cannot possibly fall over its edges
into tne moisture - pans below. -r red

faclfla Coast Hop ttrowors' Association.
Tb hop planters of Washington and
Oregon are much morn eager over the ,
convention of bop growers at Sacra
mento, which has bsen called for Tues
day, January 8, 1805, than are California
people ngsgea in ini industry, no-
port from Bacraroanto speciUy show
that th grower in that vicinity ar very
low to wak up to their own interests.
Larg dealers like Daniel Flint Of Sacra
mento have in past years attempted to
organise the hop planters, only to meet
witn discouragement. ' now American
Agriculturist never lie down in tho
trace. Ths harder th load, the more
we believe in buckling to and pulling it
out of th bole. Wbv all means hope
that Mr. Flint, Dr. F.A. Snider and
other prominent growers in Sacramento
will Join witn james nsrt 01 vnnsio
phsr. Wash., in arranging for tbe pro
posed convention. We bea thoee who
can to communicate with Mr. Fliut and
meet at Sacramento January 8 all grow-
who can be got toeetlier. 11 the at-'
tendance is larg and enthusiastic, an
organisation can b perfected' on the
pot. If only a few com together, the
conference will result in much good. In
either event American Agriculturist will
feel that it has done its part, and win
eontina to do It best for the hop grow
ers' interests. They have got to make
up their mind, however, that they must
tak hold and help themselves, for no
on else will. . And now is the time to do
it. To put off this Job uutil spring'
work i upon us will be to put it off al
together. . ..

A number of preparation bave been
used successfully for dehorning calves,
but as the ordinary farmer seldom hat
these at band, I will describe my method,
which 1 not widely known, bat ha
proved very satisfactory. Perform the
operation before the animal is a week
old. Catch th calf and hold f'. head
firmly. With a pair of scissors 1 'o th
hair from" about the horn, which at this
time ha not come through the; skin.
Plac on the point of a knife a little
past made by mixins concentrated lye
and water. Put this on tbe horn and
rub in well, taking care not to get it on
ths animal's skin. The lve com rile telr
kills th horn, but doe not seem to hurt"
th calf for more than an hour or two.
A scab forms after a few days, and when .
this comes off th hair grow over tha
spot, completely concealing any scar
which may be left, W. 8. King.
