DRY FARMING CONGRESS.
Methods o f Increasing Crop Output
Will Be Discussed.
The Dry Farming congress is now
organized, with some persistency and
determination to be heard from in the
matter of urging its claims upon ths
attention of the public. The faith that
the promoters and operators of this
association have in their claims of dry
farming methods, well carried out,
cannot be questioned, says the editoi
o f the Twentieth Century Farmer. The
experiences and results of careful anc
persistent work in crop growing efforts
are the evidence that is offered in tes­
timony o f the feasibility of dry farm­
ing methods and dry farming as an in­
dustry.
It is not surprising that there are
the doubtful, the skeptical, the unbe­
liever in converting the dry land of the
arid West to agricultural purposes, the
growing of crops, the cultivation of
orchards and forests, the establishing
of homes and the building up of com­
mercial interests and industries or
these lands; we say that it is not sur­
prising that some hesitate, that they
doubt the availability of sufficient
moisture to grow crops; that they fore­
cast seasons of drouth, etc. AH these
things had their period and have exert­
ed their influence to discourage and
prejudice the mind of the public as the
settlement o f the country has pro­
gressed westward for the last fifty
years, and yet cultivation has been the
civilizing influence that has conquered
drouth, hot winds and the barrenness
of the plains and prairie countries that
are now the dependence in production.
The Fourth Dry Farming congress
will hold its meeting at Billings, Mon­
tana, October 26, 27 and 28, 1909.
This will not only be an institute for
dry farming farmers and dry farming
instructors and teachers, but it will be
an exposition of dry farming products
such as this or no other country has
ever witnessed. There are pledged al­
ready exhibits from thirteen Western
states that are engaged in dry farming
work. The organization by states, to
■how what each is doing and capable
of doing in the raising o f grain and
vegetable crops, without irrigation, is
a feature never before undertaken in
this distirct and promises some great
surprises for visitors.
The area of tillable lands in the
United States not yet turned to culti­
vation is comparatively small, and un­
der present conditions of demand by
the homesteader will last but a few
more years at most. It is only the part
of good business judgment that the
dry farming districts be investigated
by those who contemplate getting a
home under the free homestead law.
Good lands and the best locations will
be the first taken. Each year will re­
duce the quality o f landB to be disposed
of as government homesteads.
The Dry Farming congress will be
a good place to visit next October, in
view of getting dry farming informa­
tion and dry farms on which to put it
into practice. The Dry Farming con­
gress announces that there are 200,-
000,000 acres of arable land awaiting
development by the dry farming meth­
ods.
EXTERMINATE BAND
Troops Kill Every Man of Jikiri’s
Filipino Outlaws.
FIGHT DESPERATELY TO FINISH
Jikirl, One o f Many Famous Outlaws
Remaining In Jolo, Had Made
Many Murderous Raids.
Manila. July 6.— In a desperate fight
near Patian, on Jolo island, yesterday,
Jikiri, the famous Moro outlaw chief,
was killed and his entire band exterm­
inated by detachments of regulars and
constabulary under Captain George L.
Biram, of the Sixth United States cav­
alry, operating in conjuntion with a
naval flotilla of the mosquito fleet un­
der Lieutenant Commander Signor.
The American loss was one private
killed and three officers and 20 enlisted
men and one sailor wounded.
Captain Biram’s cavalry, with a few
scouts and constabulary and a detach­
ment of sailors under Lieutenant Com­
mander Signor, located and attacked
the outlaws in the mountains far from
the coast.
The Moros fled and took
refuge in a large cave. The column
of troops and sailors surrounded the
place, but Jikiri refused to surrender.
A concerted attack was made, the
Moros fighting desperately in the
mouth of the cave until the last mem­
ber of the band was dead. As yet but
few details of the fight have been re
ceived here.
Jikiri was one of the most famous
outlaws remaining in the islands. Ever
since the American occupation he has
fought the whites and has led raid af­
ter raid.
DEATH LIST CUT.
Annual Patriotic Carnage is Greatly
Reduced.
Chicago, July 6.— With three days’
celebration o f the nation’s birthday
this year, the remarkable fact stands
out boldly that the annual carnage has
been decreased to a great degree. Ad­
vices from all points up to midnight
show that in ail large cities new rules
and their strict enforcement have
checked the customary slaughter of
children.
In New York there were but four
deaths for the three days. In Chicago,
usually drenched with blood under the
guise of patriotism, there was not a
single death for the three days. In
Washington there were no deaths and
no injuries, and only the smallest fire­
crackers were permitted.
Five deaths are reported from the
state o f Massachusetts, one each in
Boston and other large c i t i e B . One
death is reported from Philadelphia.
The entire state of Oklahoma reports
but two deaths and nine serious injur­

Tong War is Checked.
New York, July 6.— Horn Hing, a
young Chinese laundryman, who said
he was merely celebrating Independ­
ence day, was arrested in Chinatown
yesterday, suspected of preparing for a
little civil war brewing between the
two Chinese tongs or societies—the
Ong Leongs and the Hip Sings. Horn
Hing had a revolver loaded with ball
cartridges. Officials o f the Chinese
embassy at Washington had advised
t e New York police earlier in the day
that trouble among the Chinese was
imminent.
Powers Block Russians.
Pekin, July 6.—Great Britain, Aus­
tria-Hungary and the United States
have notified China that they do not
recognize the preliminary agreement
between Russia and China devised for
administration o f the Russian railroad
area in Manchuria. These powers de­
clare also that the laws affecting the
right to reside in the international set­
tlement in China must originate with
the treaty powers.
The negotiations
on this subject, which were opened last
month, are now blocked for an indefi­
nite time.

RAISES ITS PRICES.
Beef Trust Says Cattle Are Scarce
and Corn High.
New York, July 5.—The beef trust
has again ordered the price of its pro­
duct raised. Fourteen cents a pound
for pot roast to 28 cents for porter­
house and sirloin steaks is the price.
Thirty cents will be demanded for the
latter cuts in a few days, while aver­
age beef will cost the dealer 1034 cents
a pound, as against the hitherto pre­
vailing price of 10 cents.
The high price of corn and the scar­
city of cattle are the reasons assigned
by the trust for the increase in prices.
As to why cattle should be any scarcer
now than at any other time no answer
is forthcoming.
Retail butchers explain that the
working people are too poor to buy
beef; that there is a lessening in the
demand and consequently a raising in
the price. It is pointed out that Pat­
ten’s corner in wheat has increased the
demand for corn as an article of human
consumption, and that therefore the
price of that grain has so increased
that it is no longer profitable to ra.se
corn-fed cattle.
The officers of the beef trust in the
East are very reticent in discussing
the condition of the beef market.
When an expression o f opinion was
sought from the representatives of the
big leaders in the trust, such as Ar­
mour’s and Swift’s, the inquirer was
referred from one official to another.
Finally a vague statement was made
to the effect that the market was nor­
mal and that existing prices were due
to natural trade conditions.
BODIES IN RUINS.
Work Suspended at Messina on Ac­
count o f Hot Weather.
Rome, July 5.—Thousands of bodies
of the victims of the December earth­
quake that devastated Messina are
still in the ruins of that city and will
not be dug out to receive burial until
winter. In an effort to convince King
Victor that it is doing every possible
thing toward the ends desired in Mes­
sina, the Interior department today
submitted its first comprehensive re­
port. It is understood tonight that the
king, though not doubting the honesty
of the officials, was angry that there
had been so much delay, and had de­
manded speedier work.
In reply to the accusation that no
excavation had been made in the ruins,
the Interiqr department declares it has
been found necessary to suspend all
work of this nature during the warm
weather. Up to that time 30,000 bod­
ies had been recovered. An average
of 300 bodies were removed daily in
April and 900 bodies were awaiting
burial for lack of grave diggers.

TAKES RAPID TURN FOR WORSE
Enters New York Hospital <or Slight
Operation and While Recover­
ing Pneumonia Sets in.
New York, July 3.—Congressman
Francis W. Cushman, who has been ill
in Roosevelt hospital for 10 days, was
in a critical condition last night, and
at midnight the authorities of the hos­
pital held out little hope of his recov­
ery. They in fact said he was so low
it was doubtful if he woudl survive the
night.
Mr. Cushman entered the hospital on
June 21 to undergo an operation for
the removal of an abcess in his neck.
The operation, which was a slight
one, was successful, but before he re­
covered from it pneumonia develoved.
The disease reached the critical stage
yesterday, and, contrary to the expec­
tations of all, it took a rapid turn for
the worse
Francis W. Cushman was born May
8, 1867, at Brighton, la., and was edu­
cated at the local high school and at
Pleasant View academy. In order to
aid in paying his tuition there he work­
ed during the summer vacation as
“ water boy” on railroad construction
work. On completing his education at
the academy the future congressman
worked for some time as section hand
on local railroads, until at the age of
16 he moved to Wyoming.
There, he
remained for five years, being a cow­
boy on a ranch, a “ handy man” in a
lumber camp, and also a school teacher.
During this period he took up the study
of law, reading by himself, with but
little outside aid.
A t the close of this time he moved
to Nebraska, and was admitted to both
the District and Supreme bar. He re­
mained there until 1891, when he went
West again, settling in Tacoma, which
has since been his permanent home.
Prior to his election to congress he held
no offices of any kind, and made his
living entirely by his legal practice.
In 1898 Mr. Cushman was nominated
by the Republicans for congress. Since
that time he has been without opposi­
tion in his own party, and has been
elected by overwhelming majorities at
each succeeding election, and is now
serving his sixth term.

MESSINA IS SHAKEN.
Populace Flees From Its Temporary
Homes to American Section,
Messina, July 2.— Messina experi­
enced two terrific earthquake shocks at
about 7 :30 o'clock yesterday morning.
They were accompanied by a roaring
sound, and are said to have had a
stronger and more undulatory move­
ment than the earthquake of last De­
cember, which destroyed Messir.a, Reg­
gio and other cities; laid waste many
villages in Calabria, and killed 200,000
persons.
Although the shocks today had no
such terrible consequences, the 25,000
residents of the city were thrown into
terror. They ran into the streets panic-
stricken, and last night nearly the en­
tire population encamped in the open
places, fearing to return to the struc­
tures that have served them as homes
since the city was destroyed.
The
broken walls of the old ruins were
thrown to the ground, and Messina was
for a few minutes smothered in a cloud
of dust.
The casualties were few, and the
only persons killed, so far as known,
were a young woman and her child.
The woman had come here only a ,few
days ago, and had settled in rooms that
the great earthquake had left undam­
aged.
The first shock was followed quickly
by a se:ond shock, and the people fled
pellmell to the American quarter,
which they seemed to feel was their
safest place of refuge. So great was
the rush to the American houses that
the authorities were unable to check
the invasion.
The soldiers soon drew a cordon
around the square and a guard was
mounted at the bridge leading to it.
Many of the panic-stricken people were
driven off, and orders were issued that,
pending further instructions, no one
should be permitted to occupy the
American quarter.
All commerce ceased in the city and
the places of business along the sea­
front were closed.
Reggio suffered almost as severe a
shock as Messina, but no casualties
have been reported at that place.
The seismic disturbance was felt at
Taormina, but no damage was done
there. Within 24 hours the shocks at
Messina numbered 23.
