Cut Oats Early.
When the oats are 20 be used for

pested trials 1 am convinced that IL

make much better roughage. Last

seventeen acres and as part Of II was

the grain was IN the dough and the
straw was yet quite green. A. the
time II was cut the straw stood M

that II was too green let seven acres

first the seven-acre tield yielded the

When the oats are 20 be used for

PAINT HIM BROWN
And Put Our White Elephant
to Work
Is DR.. Depew's Solution of the
New Conditions.
FRENCH ARE PACIFIED
Since the Doctor Told Them
How 1t Is.
Says He Has Changed His Views
Also.
FRENCH ARE PACIFIED

London, June 23.-Dr. Chauncey NJ.
Depew has partly recanted his opposi-
ton to Imperialism as the result of the
latest war developments and of three
weeks in Europe. During his sojourn
he has had unusual opportunities of
learning the sentiment of politicians
and OF the public. He will return to
New York by the Kaiser Wilhelm Der
Crosse on Friday.
Requested by the correspondent of
the Associated Press to summarize his
views of French and English opinion on
war questions, DR.. Depew said:
1.-THE sentiment in France Is about
what 1t would be in the United States
if England and France were fighting
and every paper in the United States
were daily abusing the French, de-
nouncing the injustice of their going
to war, picturing them as a race of
robbers, shopkeepers and pigs, declar-
ing that England was poor and was the
under dog and holding up France as act
uated by nothing but a pure brute de-
sire to steal England's property.
That's what all the papers but three
are doing in France. When we also
consider that France and Spain are
both of the Latin race, and of the same
religion,and that Frenchmen have hum
dredS of millions invested in Spain, we
need not be surprised that the feeling
there is practically unanimous against
US L think only one man prevents this
feeling taking acute form. That is NJ.
Hanotaux, the minister of foreign af-
fairs. But for him the French chamber
of deputies might have taken action,
openly siding with Spain.
There is no doubt that had Manila
been a Spanish victory there would
have been an illumination of Paris 1t
was on account of this sentiment that
1 endeavored to give the causes of the
war when the Temps and Matin asked
for interviews. / was told it was a
revelation to the French and led to ma
tefiaI modification of French opinion.
They had not heard our side before
When the talk turned on England
the interviewer suggested that the
sympathies of the British aristocracy
were largely with the Spanish Dr.
Depew said he had not found them so.
81 have met with many of them during
my visit he said, land found them all
enthusiastically with us. The women
are all with US. That is the best are.
The majority of the people do not want
a mere understanding, they want a
hard and fast alliance. If continental
Europe interVened on the side of Spain,
Great Britain would go far as we are
willing to make an alliance"
Asked If his opinion on imperial poll
icy had changed, DR.. Depew replied:
There are difficulties in my position
which did not exist when I took it uD.
New conditions are arising all the while
with the progression of the war which
makes it difficult to keep out or get out
of this cOlOnizing business. We must
take into view the temper of our people,
who would certainly never give any col
onies back to Spain. Transferring them
would lead to a European war in so
days. It looks as though we would have
to paint our white elephant brown and
teach him to work.

that the Twenty-second has the young

Lieutenant Mark Baird Thompson, of
company G., the Morton Babies" He
is a Norton boy and has just passed
his eighteenth birthday but in spite
of his youth, is an efficient officer and
in his regimentals appears as dignified
and commanding as the grey haired
civil war veterans who are very much
in evidence at Camp Alger.

serving woman arrived Friday and are

1t is commonly reported that we are

future but there is no confirmation of
such reports and no one knows what a
day may bring forth.

Appellee held not to be doing business

MEAT FOR ARMY CATS.
Commissary Department Makes Nee
essarY Arran ngements.

New York, June 23.-The commissary
department made arrangements yester-
day to furnish fresh beef for Weyler,
Blanco and the Queen Regent. The
specifications read that only good and
sound meat is to be furnished, and the
bone must be excluded.
The meat is not he shipped to Spain
and Cuba, for Weyler, Blanco and the
Queen Regent are three large and emf
nently respectable cats, whose only
duty is to keep the large commissary
storehouse in the army building free
from mice and rats
Cats that are regular employees of the
army are kept in Chicago, San Francis
co, and this city, where large quantities
of stores are kept. They are fed on
the best beef at the governments ex-
pense. Hundreds of dollars are saved
by these animals, who keep the store
houses free from mice and rats.
The contract for furnishing meat for
these cats is awarded once a year. The
cats in the army building are allowed
a pound a day, and it costs the govern
ment five cents day, or $1S.25 year.
An experiment was made by a prom
inent commissary officer some years
ago with rat terriers, but when he re-
ported the result of his labor to the
commissary general he refused to allow
the terriers to take the place of cats.
