They hold the balance of power.
 The need of better police protection m this section is becoming more apparent every day and many of the residents are of the opinion that an officer should be de- tailed to do duty in the vicinity of Wash. inston avenue during evenings. Saturday night two respectable ladies were stopped at this place on their way home and sub. jected to a tirade of abuse which they will not be likely to forget for some time. One of the girls has pretty good command oi the English language in a discussion of this kind. but the fellows were too much for her and they were obliged to turn back and reach their homes by another route.

The sIikado's Troops Beaten Back With
 Heavy Losses-The Japanese Reported to
 Be Making Preparations to March on
 Pelsing-AIIeged Massacre Doubted.

 ADES, Aug 29.-The Japanese torpedo boat Tatsuta, detained hero by order of tho British foreign office while on its way to Yokohama. was, as anticipated. stop ped under the foreign enlistment act ow. ing to the fact that her captain and crew wero British subjects. Moreover, the crew, in view of the neutrality laws and the outbreak of war between China and Japan, refused to do duty, and thus the Tatsuta was unable to proceed in any case.
 1t is reported that Japanese transports, escorted by war vessels, arc landing troops In force to the northward of Taku, with the intention of marching upon Peking.
 Another report says that they have sue ceedcd in landing 0,OO0 men on the banks of the Galu river, separating Korea from China, and have thus cut of the supplies of the large army which tho Chi nese have sent down the Korean penin- sula
 The Japanese troops arc also said to be converging upon the rear of the Chinese army moving southwark and this army will consequently be taken between two fires in addition to being cut off from its supplies
 A third report says that the French commissioner at Hong Tiong has been murdered by the soldiers of General Yeh.
 All of these reports are merely the cur rent rumors of Shanghai, and all lack confirmation.

FACTS FOR FARMERS.

In every country school agriculture,
horticulture and dairying should be
taught.
cheeses than for those weighing forty
or fifty pounds.
UNLESS farmer manages to keep
his stock in good appetite he cannot
feed Mt a profit, because loss of appetite
necessarily implies that some food
eaten has contributed nothing to nu-
triton.
CHEESE kept in cool place and
wrapped in a clean cloth frequently
dipped in cold water and wrung out
will never suffer from mites, while the
moisture will improve the quality of
the cheese.
The Danes divide their cattle into
two classes, and provide that there
shall always be number of spring
calves and "a number of autumn calves.
They are also large exporters of hogs.
salt meats, eggs and poultry, the by
products of the dairying industry.
Small farms thoroughly cultivated are
the rule in Denmark.
AT the next annual fair of the Ger
man Agricultural society. which will
be held in Berlin in 1904, prizes are to
be offered for preserved dairy products
OF the following classes: ~ Non-con-

milk and cream; (3) milk powder; az
butter; l5) cheese. Besides these the
Bremen chamber of commerce will
offer silver medal for butter.

Overlooking TEAMS.

It Is Cruelty to Animals and u Great
Waste of Time.
great many men who use animals
for labor are neither careful nor skill
full drivers, and because of their want
of care and skill they fail to obtain all
the service which their teams are
capable of rendering. The animals not
only regularly fall below a proper
standard of efficiency, but they are also
especially liable to suffer from acci-
dents and injuries.
One of the most common faults of
men who use teams injudiciously is
overloading. From this various evils
result. If the animals are young they
are likely to become either discouraged
or vicious After repeated experiences
with loads that are too heavy for them
the teams get bnllsy. and will often re-
fuse to move loads which they could
draw without undue eXertion, and upon
which they never would have thought
of refusing to put forth their strength
if they had not previously been unduly
loaded And when the habit of baking
has been formed it is exceedingly diff
cult to overcome. This is one of those
CAiiASS III WhiCi IL 1lUUlG JEcVCntlOu ID
worth more than any quantity of cure
The attempt to make team draw
LOO heavy loads is great waste Of
time. Three trips with moderate loads
might be made in the time required to
deliver two very heavy ones More work
would be accomplished in given time,
and both team and driver would be
saved good deal of very decided un-
pleasantness. The risk of injury to
the animals by overstraining and by
fractions efforts, which is very decided
when the loads are too heavy, is also
avoided when there is proper adjust
ment of the load to the strength of the
team. And u last, though it can
hardly be accounted the least, reason
why overlooking Of teams should be
avoided is found in the fact that such
course will remove from the drivers
a very strong temptation to anger and
profanity. American Farmer.
