HEAVY CONDITIONS.

Yokohama, Dec. 3.-According to the
semi-official press Japan has decided to
insist upon heavy conditions for peace,
which will be increased as war is pro-
longed. If the war were concluded
now Japan would accept 400, 600 900 yen,
and a cession of the territory now oc-
cupied by her forces. If Taku and Shan
Hal Kwan cannot be attacked this win
ter because of the climate, the war will
be pushed to other parts of China. No
armistice will be granted unless China
formally sues for peace and surrenders
Pekin or gives other pledges in proper
ton to the demands of Japan. 1t
must be stipulated that Japan's power
is absolute

REGARDING Tomato Culture.

The Maine Experiment Station has issue
bulletin regarding methods of tomato
based upon experiments m ade last year.
Following is the summary of the work
done:
l. The conclusions of former years as
to the value of setting tomato plants as
early in the spring as possible are confirmed.
.. Plants handled in pots previous to
setting in the field are more vigorous and
productive than those not SO handled, "a
fact which may be of great Importance to
the commercial grower.
8. Individual variation is often such as
to render the work Of any one season I'M
reliable.
4. The productiveness of any given va
riety may be largely increased by crossing
with some of the smaller less valuable sort.
But this increased productiveness may be
partially or wholly lost in few years even
If good culture is given. The variety will
quickly ''run out"
plants grown under high culture in the
house, may give better results than those
from plants not so treated.
G. By combining the Lorillard- Currant
ybrid with the Lorillard, the size has been
fully doubled and the quality much i'm
proved; but there has been reduction in
the number of fruits produced.
:. OF the newer varieties, Burpee's
Climax, Maules Earliest and "B. b"
(Brintons Best were among the most
promising. Buckeye State, Ponderosa,
Royal Red and Stone are too late for our
climate. Lemon Blush lacked its dis.in-
gushing characteristic, and Terra Gotta was
of inferior quality.

mare now in foal to Red Hawk. She was
sired by Col. West, dam Fannie Drew by
Dirigo. Sunbeam, daughter of Nelson is
another fee mare. Her dam was Lady
G.lbreth by Gilbreth Knox. She is
in foal to Red Hawk. Another fast
mare is Brides daughter of Dictator Chief.
This mare inherits in large measure the
notable trotting qualities of her sire. An
other fine daughter of Dictator Chief is
Zilda, dam KELSEY by Constellation; End
dam Daily by General Knox; 3rd dam by
Spratt's Morgan. With these fine strains
of blood she is admirably qualified for
brood mare. She is finely developed,
easy gated, and fast. She is now in foal
to Nelson.
There are a number of other fine horses
and colts at Pine Grove, but lack of space
makes it impossible to mention all.
Trainer Stewart may be depended upon
to put number of them we'll forward in
the lists before the close of the season.

Making the Woodland Pay.

There are many farmers who
stand in their own light by not
getting some revenue each year
from their woodland. To the ex-
perienced foreigner it is easy to
see that many trees that have got
to their best are left to cumber the
ground until they decay and fall,
instead of being cut out and leave
their room to be occupied by young,
vigorous growth. There are many
farms covered by mortgage which
could be cleared of debt and still
leave tree-growth ample for the
supply Of the farm, and which, af-
ter a few years, will be worth more
than what has been removed.

THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC.
CONDEMNED BY MONSIGNOR sA-
T0LLI.
He Approves the Expulsion @
Liquor Dealers From Cath
Ollie Societies.

NEW YORK, July lS.-The press
will say tomorrow: "MonsignoI
Sstolli, the apostolic delegate, has
lust rendered decision condemn.
ing the liquor traffic. He approves
of the expulsion Of liquor dealers
from Catholic societies. This re-
markable decision was called forth
by an appeal from the ruling
of Bishop Watterson Of Columbus
o. During the last Lenten season
Bishop Watterson addressed a
letter to the clergy and laity
of his diocese dealing wholly with
the temperance problem. Bishop
Watterson said: 81 hereby with
draw my appreciation from any
and every Catholic society in this
diocese that has liquor dealer or
saloon keeper at its head or any
where among its officers; and l
suspend every such society from
the rank and privileges as Catho-
lie society to be so differed. No
one who is engaged either as prin-
cipal or agent in the manufacture
or sale of Intoxicating liquors
should be admitted to member
ship" One of the societies laid the
matter before Monsignor Satolli.
To this appeal the apostolic dele
gate has just responded. He
sustains the position of Bish'
op Watterson and says
"the liquor traffic, especially as
conducted here in the United
States, is the source Of much evil,
hence the bishop was acting within
his rights in seeking to restrict it
Therefore the apostolic delegate
sustains Bishop Waterson's action
and approves Of his circular and
regulation concerning saloons and
the expulsion Of saloon keepers
from mem bership in Catholic so
,cieties."
Rev. Alexander P. Doyle, of the
Paulist Fathers, the general secre.
tary Of Catholic Total Abstinence
Unions of America, said that the
declaration of the apostolic dele
gate is the most important ever
pronounced by the church in this
country, and he thought its effect
would be far reaching.
