UNION WITH GREECE
NOTHING ELSE WILL SATISFY THE
PEOPLE OF CRETE.
A Declarations tn That EIec Sent to
the Italian Admiral-Thc Powers
Win Allow Greece Four Days to
Withdraw Her TrOOps - Fighting
continues Between CHRISTIANS
and Mrssusnans

London, March lit Is stated here
tiiat there is good authority for be-
iieVing that the result Of the confer
ences between the representatives OF
q great powers at COnstantinople and
Athens viii be the presentation Of col
tectlve notes to Turkey and Greece to-
morrow.
Greece will be allowed four days to
recall her land and sea forces from
Crete. 1t is reported from Canea that
several i%nsurgent leaders have sent to
Vice Admiral Oaneyaro, OF the italian
feet, "a signed declaration that the
Cretans will accept no solution of the
pending question but political union
with Greece. Fighting continues be-
tween the insurgents and Mussulmans
neal RetimO and elsewhere. The Chris
tianS besieged the Turkish garrisOns
in the block house at Malata for sew
eral days. To-day a body of Turkish
regulars and irreguiars left Canea
with Il convoy to revictuaI the block
house. The insurgents attacked the
column and killed several of the es-
cort, w~hereupOn the Turkish battle
ship Fuad opened fire upon the in
surgents with shells and continued the
hrlng until stopped by order Of the
foreign admiraIs. The convey was
finally compelled to retire.
The latest advices from Canea re-
port that fighting between the be-
sieged garrison and the Cretans con
dnueS. The villages of Trikalaria and
Nerokouro, in the same district. have
been, it is reported, burned by the
Bashibazouks. Fighting continues also
outside Gambia. The Christians have
repulsed the Turks.
Dispatches from Athens state that
4 number Of Cretan deputies, headed
by he bishop OF ItetimO, have present
ed King George with q memorial which
states IL effect that autonomy, instead
OF paciiying the island. viii only pave
the way for another revolution later
on, and still further cRdanger the peace
of Europe; and that, therefore, the
CretaEs are resolved to continue the
struggle until political union with
Greece, their long cherished hope, is
realized.
The Athens correspondent of the
Daily Mail says that a war tax Is about
to be proclaimed in the provinces of
ThesSaly and Aria. The Nails ad-
vises from Canea report serious news
from Gambia. Col. Coracas, with To-
600 insurgents and three guns, threat
ems TO attack Hierapetra. where the
garrison is i'll supplied with arms ana
ammunition and the forts are weak.
1t is feared that this may seriously
complicate the situation. A famine is
imminent in Gambia and it is appre-
hended that the troops there may pill
lage the district.

Corn fodder Is taking such a promi-
nent place among our rough feeds that
the greatest effort should be put forth
in trying to discover and bring into
general use the best ways OF handling
and most economical methods Of feed
ing 1t. A few years ago but little fod-
der was handled. but since the hay
crop has become so uncertain almost
every farmer has learned. perhaps by
using a small amount at first. and in
creasing. that IL is one Of the best OF
he rough feeds for horses, cattle and
sheep. 1t has been accurately deter
mined by experimenters that the food
value OF an acre of corn fodder IL
properly handled is as great as that OF
an acre OF nay. a thing to be Won
dered at Is the careless way with
which many farmers handle and feed
1t. II the user Of fodder realized what
is lost by allowing 1t to stand in the
field for half the winter or more or by
hauling 1t to the barn and stacking 1t
poorly. he would certainly change his
methods and use some OF the care that
is exercised In the handling OF hay.
Some contend that by making large
shocks fodder can rern6in* without and
suffer but little. however In the largest
Of standing shocks there Is a .otal loss
of a considerable amount. while the
greater part of the shock is injured.
Fallen shocks often become wet and
rotten. wholly uniting them for feed.
Fodder should be hauled as soon after
1t is dry as possible and either put I'M
der cover or stacked without. Use OK
the shredder or threshing machine
makes cover very necessary, while
whole fodder can be stacked and fed
with but little loss. A good way 10 DO
IL a little barn room can be had, is TO
make small stacks and when n Is
opened move it into the barn ana use
from there as needed. Through the
northern part OF the state threshing
machines are quite generally used IN
preparing fodder for feed. The un-
husked shocks are run through the ma
chine, which shreds the fodder In GOOD
shape, shells the corn and cleans IL
fairly well-not usually enough Tor
selling, but so there is no objection 10
it for feed. We find this a very good
method of preparing shocked corr for
feed. In building a stack or who're
fodder see that in placing the bundles
the middle is kept high enough TO IN
sure the stocks having a good pltch
after the stack has settled. In stack
ing shredded fodder the same rule Oh
keeping the middle full should be OBJ
served, and as an extra preeaution, the
top of the stack should be we'll V
cred with wild hay or straw. Fodder.
either shredded or whole, that is used
outside of the barn. should be fed In
racks and never scattered about on the
| ground. as there Is not olly much
trampled and left untouched. but the
food value of a great deal of that eaten
!! Is impaired. A horse or COW will not
| derive the same good from fodder that
Is wet and covered with dirt as 1t Will
from clean dry feed. A rack that is
easily and cheaply built and one thai
| answers the purpose very well, Is
made by driving posts about two feet
and a half from the fence or side OF
the shed and boiling poles to them.
