ling with the problem of how best to
reduce the war taxes, that schedule b
of the war tax law, which deals with
articles in which druggists are partic-
ularly interested, is the one that ought
to be entirely wiped out, whatever may
be done with the others. The brewers
are making still hunt, with the as
sistance of shrewd and high priced lob
byists, for the reduction of the beer
tax. The majority of the members Of
the ways and means committee have
held consultations with the president,
the secretary Of the treasury and the
commissioner of internal revenue, to
get ideas about how the bill should be
drawn-the minority members will not
partici pate in the committee meetings
until the bill has been agreed upon by
the majority. Secretary Gage told the
committee that reductions amounting
to as much as $50, OOO 600 year might
safely be made, and that is about the
amount that will be aimed at the bill,
but the trouble lies in deciding where
to make the reduction. 1t is not an
enviable task, as no matter how they
are made IA howl will be made by those
interests which do not have share in
them.

Fall irrigation has been Thoroughly
tested and found to be success. The
ground will work much better in the
spring and will require one-third less
water to produce the first cutting of
alfalfa if irrigated in October or No
vember and for season as dry as this
one irrigating can be done at any time
during the winter if the water is avail
able. Farmers who use the water in
the fall can depend upon it that they
will not have to irrigate in the spring
to get the crop up. This plan Of irri-
CATION is gradually growing in favor
and with an independent supply of
water at this time wonders can be ac-
complshed and much trouble saved in
the spring. Fall plowsd land or
ground through which potato diggers
have run will take water readily

in Washington. The slowness of the
negotiations in Pekin as we'll as some
of the demands talked of by some of
the representatives of the powers has
aroused the suspicion that some of the
powers are not honest in their profess
sions and really do not wish a peaca-
BILE settlement. This government has
instructed Minister Conger to inform
the other ministers of its opposition to
making impossible demands of the
Chinese government. But the most
significant public occurrence in con-
nection with this matter was the pub
LEGATION of an authorized interview

ington, who, without mentioning other
powers, gives unstinted praise to the
United States, and implies doubts of
others, For instance, he said. st is

record the qualification | feel at the
absolute harmony of purpose which
exists between the United States and
one can doubt the sincerity of the
American government. Its magnani-
nous policy has added to its prestige
in Europe and Asia" When ambas-
sailors publicly record either their
qualification or their regret it is al
ways done for purpose, and the clos
ing words Of the Russian ambassador
leaves but little doubt of his purpose
in this case-to call attention to the
acts and talk of the Anglo-German
representatives in Pekin. He said:

tory to the powers and to China will be
reached, bnt to achieve it all must pur-
sue disinterested policy and have as
it's aims the objects they had in view
when the trouble began" In diplo-
matte language this comes very near
to charging England and Germany
with double dealing in China. On the
whole the situation is regarded as
more threatening to American com
mercial interests in China than at any
time since the beginning of the pres
ent trouble.

QUESTION ANSWERED,

Yes. August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought of using
anything else for Indigestion and Bill
iousness, Doctors were scarce, and
they seldom heard of appendicitis, ner-
vous prostration or heart failure, etc.
They used August Flower to clean out
the system and stop fermentation of
undigested food, regulate the action Of
the liver, stimulate the nervous and
organic action of the system, and that
is all they took when feeling dull and
bad with headaches and other aches
You only need few doses of Green's
August Flower, in liquid form, to
make you satisfied there is nothing
serious the matter with you. For sale

Well bred cattle will always sell.
1t makes little difference what the
market conditions are on the general
run of stock, the man with the well
bred, well cared for cattle never has
any difficulty in securing good price
for his offerings. The market may be
slump Or it may be glutted but there
are never too many choice cattle. No
matter what the outlook may be as to
the future Of the market, no matter
how scarce feed is, feeder is always
willing to risk money ON choice cattle.
Well baed steers are as good as gold
and can be as easily turned into money
This being true, it seems wonder
that breeders do not raise more cattle
of this kind. Only last week Mr..
Grubb of the Roaring Fork was offered
five cents pound in Denver for some
Shorthorn long yearlings weighing ss3
pounds, which would bring their value
up to S44.1 head and they never
tasted anything but grass. They had
to 90 to the big show in Chicago or
would have been sold.-Field and
