Chicago, April 3.-—8ix thousand In a hall, the seating capacity of which is I but 5000, gave encouragement to Pres ident Roosevelt when he stepped upon the stage of the Auditorium last night, i The great building has held many a throng, but never one that was more I nnstinted in its applause for any man ! tha» the crowd that filled it last night, j From the first floor to the roof it was | packed to its utmost capacity. Every seat was occupied and. although the aisles were kept clear, all the space in the lobbies and on the stairways was taken, and even the passageways lead ing to the hall from the lower floor were jammed with hundreds of men who were utterly unable to hear a word of the President’s address. The following are a few extracts from the address, giving expression to the sentiments of the President on these questions: "Our duty to ourselves and to the weaker republics -who are our neigh bors requires us to see that none of the great military powers from across the seas shall encroach upon the terri tory of the American republics or ac quire control thereover. “ Both powers (Great Britain and Germany) assured us in explicit terms that there was not the slightest inten tion on their part to violate the prin ciples of the Monroe Doctrine, and this assurance was kept with an honorable good faith. "The Monroe Doctrine is not inter national law. and this is not necessary as long as it remains a cardinal feat ure of aur foreign policy and as long as we possess both the will and the strength to make it effective. " I f the American Nation will speak softly and yet build, and keep at a pitch of the highest training, a thor oughly efficient navy, the Monroe Doc trine will go far. “ It is too late to prepare for war when war has come, and if we only prepare sufficiently, no war will ever come.” Fearful Plight of Sixteen Furnacemcn Near Pittsburg. |tinop1e, April 0.— Official ad- Monasttr say the Bulgarian b of 30 villages in the I district, totaling 3000 men. orted by the bishop and a ¡>f revolutionary bands, have |inst the Turks.

Pittsburg, April 3.— By an accident at furnace I of the Edgar Thompson plant of the Carnegie steel company at Braddock today six men were killed and ten are in the hospital and are not expected to recover. Fonr others in jured went to their homes and are suffering from painful burns. The accident was cause«! by a “ bang” in the furnace dropping and forcing large quantities of white-hot dust down a large pipe into a pit where the men were at work. The victims were without means of escape, and all were burned and blistered over their entire bodies. Largo strips of flesh fx’elod off their bodies when they were pulled out of the pit by fellow work men. The cries of agony of the vic tims as they writhed in the lava-like stuff from which they were vainly trying to extricate themselves could lie heard over a blotk away. Hundreda of workmen from other parts of the plant ruehed to the rescue and as quickly as possible pulled the injured men from the pit and carried them to the emergency hospital. The bodies of the fatally burned were blackened or shreilded in strips by the white-hot metal dust that burned into their flesh. Many of the men had large blotches burned through the flesh, caused by large »plashes of molten iron that had (truck them and burned through to the bone.

A Ho me-Unde Fodder Cutter. No one will question the value of cut fodder for stock, and especially for horses, although many farmers will not use It because o f the labor Involved in preparing It. The home-made cutter shown here will do quite as good work ns tbe more expensive machines, and it really does not take much time to pre pare quite a lot of fodder.

Fertilizing theCorn Land. At the Purdue corn school, the great emphasis was placed upon fertilizing the corn land nt least one year before the field is given to corn. An old clover sod that has received mnpure the pre vious year was regarded ns an ideal soil on which to grow corn. Corn growers considered it quite a risk to haul manure ou land intended for com later than Jan. 1. After that date the surplus manure should go to tile grow ing grain crop, as wheat or rye. to the «■lover Helds or to the pasture land. I f placed on corn land It may cause the plants to fire .in a dry time, the pres ence of the manure thus acting to pro duce an appreciable loss.

H eifer calves that are to be kept for tlie dairy should receive very little corn, as this Is apt to develop the tendency to take on flesh too strongly. Steer calves and those which it la expected to fat ten may have all the corn they will eat. Three factor» to lie kept constantly In mind in raising the calf on skim milk are: First, the calf should not have too much milk at any time: second, the milk should at ail times be sweet; third, the milk should never be fed cold. The Wisconsin Farmer saya: Wo have all had more or less experience scooping snow from walks and from about tbe barns. Sometimes the snow will stick to tbe shovel and make It dlflh'ult to scoop. To avoid this the shovel should be greased with a bit of tallow to prevent sticking. This is worth a trial. Watches Clocks and Jewelry A t L ow est P rices.........
