Then Hopes to Arrange Treaty Witli Vnited States on Far East ern Question. KT. PETERSBURG, April 19. A com mission headed by Vice-President Wentzel, of the Kast Chinese Railroad, left here tonight for Harbin and will endeavor to arrange directly with the Chinese authorities a settlement of the dispute over the administration of Har bin. Russian officials believe the mis sion will be accomplished to the satis faction of China, as well as the United States and other powers. As soon as the Harbin difficulty' Is out of the way it Is probable that Rus sia will negotiate for an agreement with the United States on Far Eastern questions, but the basis of this accord must be the limitation of the railroad administration at Harbin strictly to the terms of the contract, which contem plated only the exercise within the rail road zone of the functions necessary to the operation and defense of the line.

AYER CO., Manufacturing Chemists, Lowell, Mats. vides that whenever the Board of Slieep Commissioners regards the sheep of the state as free from Infectious or conta gious diseases, it shall have the power to declare such annual dipping: not required and such declaration shall be made by proclamation. Owing: to the healthy con dition of the flocks It was thought un necessary to require the sheep to be dipped this year. It was found that in the Willamette Valley especially, sheep are afflicted with lice and In several Instances losses have resulted from this pest. It Is urged that all flock masters dip the sheep to kill these, as there have been complaints from Eastern Oregon and Idaho of lousy bucks, and unless sheep are kept rid of the parasites, the buyers will be reluctant to come to the Valley to purchase. Further, according to Secretary Smythe's report, sheep In the Willamette Valley and west of the Cascade Moun tains are troubled with Intestinal trou bles, including liver flukes or leaches, causing considerable loss and making It almost impossible to raise sheep in cer tain parts of the Valley. State Sheep Inspector Lytle was instructed to pre pare a bulletin on prevalent diseases, including scab, lice, etc., among sheep in Oregon, and the secretary was in structed to have the bulletins published and cent to every . sheepman in the state. The secretary was also in structed to prepare a directory of all sheepowners in Oregon. The Hecretary of Agriculture has been requested to co-operate with the officials of the state in controlling and eradicat ing foot-rot and other diseases among sheep. A regulation was also adopted requir ing all bucks brought into the State of Oregon for breeding purposes to be dipped af least once and quartered in some suitable place for a period of, GO days. This does not apply to bucks brought into the state for fair or show purposes. SALMON PACKERS APPEAL ASK PUKE FOOD COMMISSION' ERS TO CHANGE RULING.
