Country's Dignity.
St. Petersbuig, Sept. 19. Russia
has g iven her answer to the -American
and British notes on the subject of con
traband of war. Her answer as com
municated to Ambassador Hardinge
this afternoon verbally by Foreign Min
ister Lamsdorff. and bears out the pre
dictions made on the Bubject by the
Associated Piesa. The Ambassador
was informed in effect that, according
to the decision of the commission which
has investigated the subject, the gov
ernment has agreed to view as condi
tionally contraband in character food-
Muffs and fuel, and that supplementary
instruction had been issued to the Rus
sian naval commanders and prize couTts
calling their attention to the misinter
pretation which had been placed upon
the prize regulations.
These inetrutions ,Sir Charles Hardige
-wp informed, make a clear distinction
between the articles enumerated in ar
tide 6 of the Russian prize regulations
which are susceptible to dual use, like
fufl and foodstuffs, the assumption be
ing that if they are addressed to private
persons 01 firms m an enemy s port
thev are not intended for warlike uses;
Vmt. their innocent character may be
subject to suspicion if the ship's papers
and the circumstances are irregular.
Tn (. th new instructions will
place ihs burden of proof that the food
stuffs, etc., ae designed for beligerent
purposes upon the captor.
Russia, in Count Lamsdorff's re
ap nse to Ambassador Hardinge, in
principle meets the views of the Amer
ican and the British governments re

Washington Sept. 20. The Times
tonight prints the following:
'.There-have arisen serious misun
derstandings between John Barrett
American minister at Panama, and the
isthmian commission. Admiral Walk
er, head of the isthmian canal commis
sion, prefers to deal with questions that
have arisen between this government
and Panama in his own way, desiring
not to 'waste time with diplomacy.
"Minister John Barrett holds that
there are questions bearing on relations
between the canal zone government
and the government of the republic of
Panama that should be submitted to
diplomatic adjustment.
"The pinch has come in determining
whose authority shall be uppermost in
settling a number of questions which
miaht as readily come under Governor
Davie' jurisdiction as under that of
Minister Barrett. So serious has the
differences between the Panama officials
become that Minister John Barrett has
decided to come to Washington person
ally to present his case to the presi
dent."
This story cannot be confirmed, but
probably grows out of the fact that
Minister Barrett is soon to return home
on leave of absence.'wbich the president
promised he should have thle fall.

Points in Corn Growing.
The art of raising corn ia summed
up in Indiana Farmer: xne cui vj.
corn plants in a row distance part is
shown for the purpose of impressing
the reader with the importance of bet
ter methods of cultivation than those
formerly pursued ; in other, worda, to
show tha necessity of shallow level
cultivation after tha corn plant ia a
few feet hign.
This country has the only produc
tive and profitable com belt in tne
world. The demand and increasing
price of corn in the last live years
have raised the annual production to
about 2,000,000,000 -bushels, and yet
the average per acre for the whole
country is only 24.2 bushels. It is a
rather remarkable fact that on tne
poor soils of New England the aver
age production per acre is largest.
This is doubtless due to the fact that
better fertilization, cultivation and
seed selection is practiced there. It
Is very well known that there is great
advantage in seed selection. Many
Instances of this have shown that on
the same quality of soils fifteen busli-
els per acre have been produced, more
than where the work of selecting seed
was neglected. Again, it has been
shown that corn growing on lands the
previous year in leguminous crops has
greatly increased in production.
The best corn growers now begin
cultivation with weeders or harrows
before or bv th time, the corn be
gins to appear above the ground, this
both for the purpose of destroying the
germinating weeds as well as to put
the soli in better condition for corn
growth. It is always Important that
the ground be stirred after rains,
where crust forms and starts rapid
evaporation of the moisture. It is
well settled now that a good dust
mulch of two or three inches' depth
Is one of the things necessary in corn
cultivation.
Formerly deep cultivation was prac
ticed, but it is now seen that this was
a mistake. , When the crop is three
or four feet high the ground begins to
mat with the fine fibrous roots which
extend from row to row, as shown in
the cut When six to eight'feet high
these fine root feeders of the plant
have made a complete mat between
the rows. In deep cultivation, reach
ing down to five or six inches, these
fine plant feeders are broken off, ana
growth toward maturity is cnecitea.
Of course, new fibrous roots will form

batter and thus force a further loss on
the patron. Unfortunately on most of
oar farms It la looked upon as the
regular thins; to have the cows fall
off in their milk at this time of year,
and nothing la done to prevent it.
This not doing anything Is the hardest
thing to overcome when we are trying
to induce the adoption of methods
that will Insure the continuation of
the flow of milk during early summer
through the hot weather. This is a
hard period for onr creamery men, but
the loss always gets back to the farm
ers in the end. This should be remem
bered and measures taken to insure
different results. St. Louis Republic.

Every dairyman knows that when

Is impossible to again bring her oacs:
to the original flow, no matter how
bountifully she is fed. Even if the
food costs more than the milk during
the summer drought, it is best to keep
it up if it is intended to milk the cow
through the fall and winter. To al
low the milk yisld to run down is
to court a double loss. The loss of

Alfalfa in the North.
A bulletin of the Wisconsin station
gives directions for the culture of al
falfa, pointing out especially the man
ner of harvesting the crop, and pre
sents conclusions based on the experi
ence in growing alfalfa at the station
and the data obtained from former
students throughout the State. These
data favor the use or at least twenty
pounds of . good seed per acre, early
spring sowing, fall plowing, ana grow
ing with barley or oats as a nurse
crop, sowing one bushel per acre. It
was observed that the varieties of al
falfa grown at the station showed very
little difference in appearance or
yielding capacity, and that in the airai
fa fields of seventeen counties of tha
State the plants developed the root
tubercles without special soil Inocula

no greater difficulty than heavy cut

"HsBOgeniscd". Milk.
The latest thing we have now la
"homogenized" milk. It is milk that
bas been heated to 185 degrees and
then forced against a porcelain plate
under high pressure. This breaks up
the globules of cream until they are
so fine they will not rise to the sur
face. It is said that milk treated in
this manner has been kept for six
weeks without getting sour or show
ing any cream on the top of the milk.
Science is doing great things if this
be true.
