DROP ARMAMENT QUESTION.
America Will Not Raise It and Europe
Opposes It
Wsshington, June 18. It can be
stated on authority that the American
delegate to The Hague conference wil
not bring up for ditcussion the question
of limitation of armament. That mat
ter ia regarded a a purely Kuropean
question at present and as the result of
another year's woik by Professor I-
Martons, at the various capitala of Ku
rope, has been to thresh out pretty
thoroughly the whole matter, and make
evident the fact that at leaat four o
the gr-at powers are averse to the con
sideration of the disarmament question,
the Washington government retards
itself us relieved from the necessity of
bringing this matter to the fore.
It la the opinion here, also, that the
subject of limitation of armament will
not now be broached by any of the
powera represented at The Hague con

Each Line Takes a D stinctiv Field
From Which th Other Is Ef-
fectively Barred.
Washington, June 13. From evi-
dene given today before the Interstate
Commerce commission it Is very plain
that J. J. Hill and K. 11. Harriman
have mapped out the Northwest, each
taking a distinctive territory, from
ahich the other is effectively barred.
Particularly is this true of the lumber
business. It ia piactically impossible,
under the existing freight rates and ar
rangements, for Oregon lumbermen to
compete with Puget Sound in markets
tributary to the Northern Pacific and
Great Northern, and likewise iuiDosei-
ble for Puget Sound manufacturers to
invade territory tributary to the Harri
man lines.
And so far as the respective railroad
systems are concerned, neither has snv
desire to invade the other's territory.
uotn acknowledge their utter Incom
petency to handle the business that
offered them and each obiects to being
compelled to take car of the surplus of
ins inner.
At tne close ol the morning session
Mr. Jeffreys, sttorney for the Gould
system, announced to the commission
that the Missouri Pacific and Denver A
Rio Grande, which connect with the
Harriman lines at Ogden, bad no obiec
tlon to "opening the Portland gateway.'

"The outrage demonstrates the im po

however high in character, Is of no val

"The powerleseness of the California

I required to csre for a single cow,
proportionately, than for a herd. A
cow for the family should give a large
flow of milk for at least ten months of
the year, snd tbe milk should contain
not less tbsn 4 per cent of butter fst,
as cresra Is one of tbe essentials. It
Is better to hav a cow that glvea even
