PROFITABLE PASTURES.

r,xlish Farners Oct GoeA Ret0rne
From Every square lnoh q Land.
One Of the surprising things In farm
ing 10 the gradual development OF land
to a point where Il win yield returns
Aever dreamed of by the early cult
vators. says American Cultivator. Over
IN parts Of England and Scotland farm
ers and dairymen make . living from
pasture lands which have an assessed
valuation OF $500 and $500 an acre.
They do this when prices for the prod
acts are no greater than American
farmers receive. The secret OF their
success is necessity. They have been
forced to make every square inch Of
soil pay its highest profit. and as q re-
suit they have some Of the finest pas
lures In the world. The sod Is so thick
and compact that 1t Is almost impossl.
BILE to cut through 1t. 1ne roots form
= solid mass In the soil, and the grass
grows l~uxuriantly. even defying dry
weather, and produce good crops In
spite Of close cropping late In the sea-
son, when frost ordinarily kills less
successful pasture. The thing of 1t 10
the farmers have cultivated the soil,
planted and replanted grass seeds,
dressed the pastures repeatedly with
fertilizers and made them In every way
productive and fertile. The soil Is not
nor adapted naturally to pastures
than millions Of acres In this country
which today produce only Indifferent
crops of grass. The soil Is made arti-
IDEALLY rich, and the sod Is the result Of
careful, intensive farming.
So 1t Is these English farmers make
Z profit from land worth ten times as
much In money valuation as the pas
ture fields Of this country. Now. II it
10 possible to improve pasture fields SO
that they will produce like these Eng
lsh ones, what a enormous profit
awaits the American farmers who will
improve their fields to the same pro-
ductive fertility! Instead IT being
forced to pay interest on nm investment
Of $500 an acre the average dairyman
In this land would have to pay only on
$40 to $50 per acre. All the rest would
represent profit.

LONG ARGUMENT ENDED
EsTEE's KICK ABOUT ms COURT
ROOM.
Hendry VIII write TO WASHINGTON to
Have the Acoustics Improved-ila-
beas Corpus Case is Submitted.

United states judge Estee this morn
ing heard the last of the arguments I'm
the matter of the habeas corpus APP
pllcation OF Osaki MakiChi, and the
case was submitted.
Attorney General j. w. Cathcart
closed his argument In few minutes
after the opening of court and Il. NJ.
Brooks began the reply. Davis follow
ed. He made new point as to the
duty of the court to take jurisdiction,
declaring that the action of the Terri
tOrial supreme Court in deciding the
constitution and flag question both
ways constituted extraordinary cir
cumstances that made it the duty of
the United States court to take up the
matter.
Estee gave the attorneys until Satur-
day to send i'm their lists of authori-
ties, and announced that he would pre-
pare his decision after that. THE deci-
sion may be given in three days, and it
may be two weeks" said the court. ut
is according to what the court has tc
do"
Before adjourning Judge Estee regis
| tered a kick about the acoustics of his
courtroom, instructing Deputy Marsha
Hendry to write to Washington on the
subject and. have the room altered.
THE acoustics of this room are sim
Iply vicious" said Judge Estee, land
we shall either have to have the room
fixed or quit the practice of law here
The national government is not poor
and ! have no doubt IT will attend tc
the matter when asked"

An adult may DO at once

THE HEADSTONE.

EDITOR STAR: Please permit me to
say relative to that "headstone" mot
tombstone) affair with which my name
is connected that the evidence also
showed that the plaintiffs had broken
the fastenings to the grave-plot, had
ushered Japanese workmen in to erect
the headstone. had removed a head
boaru, that had held position for nearly
two years, since the burial of the de-
ceased all against the protest of Mrs.
Metcalf. Mrs. Emma Metcalf Deckley
Nakuina's testimony only accredited
the dead man as being her brother and
that the plaintiff Mrs Rowland was
any relation to her. The right to the
plot was eXhib..ed in a deed to Mrs
Alice Metcalf by the rlghtful owner as
indicated by Rev. Parker, and Mrs.
Metcalf has tended and iml roved the
place by over eleven years of care and
attention. Notice of appeal has been
given.

INVASION OF VENEZUELA.

COLON, August 27-Well equipped

at is to aid in the overthrow of Presi-
dent Castro" said the informant. Rev
olution, not war, will end his dictator
ship. When his downfall is accom-
plished similar plan will be followed
in Nicaragua"
Trouble is imminent on both the
eastern and southern boundaries of
Colombia. Troops have been rushed in
both directions, and the frontiers of
Venezuela and Ecuador are lined with
armed men ready to advance at a
moments notice. No secret is made of
the threatening attitude of the Colom-
bian authorities. They assert that the
revolution here has been enabled to
continue only by aid of the Liberal gov
ernments of neighboring Republics, and
that to insure peace at home 1T has be-
come necessary to inaugurate a war of
foreign conquests. 1t is assumed here
that Ecuador would join with Vene-
zuela in any movement against Colom-
bia, the two Liberal governments
standing united against the ConserVa-
tive element in control here, and max
ing counter charges of interference
with their affairs and of fostering re-
volutiOns.
WASHINGTON August 27.-Dr.
Silva, Colombian Minister, today receiv-
ed an official mail from Bogota con-
tanning information tending to confirm
recent telegraphic advices indicating
that danger of war between Colombia
and Venezuela is growing less His
letters inform him that the Colombian
Government has received most posi-
tive assurances from the governments
of Nicaragua and Ecuador that in the
event of a conflict between Colombia
and Venezuela they will remain abso-
lutely neutral
Dr. Silva's mail also indicates that
there has been an Improvement in the
situation in Colombia, giving details of
the complete defeat of a band of $500
insurgents under General Marin at the
town of Anapoyma. These insurgents
had previously occupied the town of
Giradot, on the Magdalena River, which
is small but important, being the ter
minus of the railroad from Bogota.
Additional information Is given that
10000 men under General Gonzales Va
lencia are guarding the frontier CONT
guous to Venezuela. The Navy De-
partment was notified late this after
noon that the gunboat Ranger had
finished coaling at Acapulco and had
sailed for Panama. The Iowa will also
coal at Acapulco. On account of her
superior speed 1t is believed that she
will arrive at Panama before the Ran
ger.
