Russia Continues to Import Them
Despite the Hostile Tariffs
in That Realm.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
st. Petersburg, Tuesday, Aug. 12.-The
official report RusSfa's foreign trade
for the first four months of 1902 shows
the American importations to be virtually
the same as in 1900, apparently Indicating
that Russian buyers become fully con-
vinced it is better to buy American ma
chinery in spite of the discriminating duty
against It, Comparative figures for 1900,
1901 and 1902 are respectively $3.50. 900,
$7.15S, 900 and S.913, 500. In the meantime
German and British imports have fallen.
their figures being $34.06l.500, $32.926. 500
and $50, 297, OOO and SIS, ,064, 900, $14,317, 900
and $10394, 900
The whole import has continued falling,
so that the share Of America is relatively
larger than in 1900. The expectations
continue to increase.
The last note of M. Witte the Russian
minister of finance, to the foreign press
on the sugar question has not been pub
lished in Russia. Among those Russians
who have read it in foreign pa pers. it ap-
pears to have caused unbounded astonish-
ment. M. Whites conviction that in this
question the powers will be guided by
their interests and not by what is right, -
and his threat In case any increase of du
ties is enforced against Russian sugar
that the Russian government will con-
slider itself free to disregard treaty stipu-
lationS when it thinks fit" along with
the system Of guerilla tariff warfare he
aid down are considered as outwitting
even the Russian finance minister. The
Russian critics Of NJ Witte point out that
as the sugar convention will become ef-
fective after the expira ton of most Of the
Russian commercial treaties, the finance
| ministry will be wise not to take general
measures against the powers collectively
but to adopt measures which will be the
most advantageous for Russia in the spe-
cial circumstances Of each case
They also point out that about a year
ago NJ. Witte was Illuminating threats Of
what he would do in case Germany car
ried out her tariff policy, threats of which
nothing more has been heard.

FOREST RESERVATIONS.
Their Establishment by Congress-
Should lie Advocated by Every
Patriotic American.

Ray Stannard Baker, writing in tho
Century on irrigation, speaks thus of
the progress in western sentiment in
the matter of Misrepresentation, and
of the need of making more reserves:
Another scheme of the westerner for
conserving the water-supply has borne
rich fruit in the last few years. 1t is
well-known fact that there is no bet
ter conservator of water than forest
with thick under-growing vegetation.
The ground is protected, and the vege-
tation holds back and regulates the
water which falls in rain. Nearly all
of the high plateaus and mountain
ranges of the west, where the rainfall
and snowfall are greatest, and where
all the great rivers have their source,
are covered more or less densely with
vegetation, often with manificent for
ests, hundreds, even thousands, of
years old. If it were not for these for
ests, all the water that fell would run
swiftly into the valleys, the streams
would rise to floods, and in a few days
time the channels would be dry again.
This is actually what now happens in
many valleys of the west-great tor
rents for two or three weeks in the
year, absolute drought all the remain
der of the time. 1t is, therefore, of
vital Importance that these forests be
preserved. The westerner, led by wise
scientists, has taken up the matter, and
by good fortune the government at
Washington has been aroused to the
necessities of the case, and forest re-
serves and national parks have been
created, which will not only go down
to future generations as the most
notable places of natural beauty on
the continent, but they will preserve
life and bring happiness to the valleys
below. But the work is yet only half
done. More forests must be reserved,
and more care be given to protecting
them from lawless miners and lum-
bermen. By the judicious cutting of
the older trees and the removal of
windfalls and waste, which might give
food for fires, they can be made a
source of lumber for a thousand years
to come, and that without iniuring
their usefulness as water-conserva-
tors. But if private greed is allowed to
dictate, these splendid forest areas
will be left the most desolate of
deserts, like those of northern Wiscon-
sin and Michigan-deserts which are
far worse than the cactus plains of
New Mexico and Arizona.

PLANT PROPERLY SET.

above ground to wither and die; one
bud out is enough. Don't put in little,
short plants, but have them eight to
ten inches long, with plenty of roots
Don't set them perpendicular, but as
in Fig. 2. Don't leave the dirt loose
over them, but slap your foot down
over the roots and firm them.
Don't dig holes, but take the plant
in your left hand, thrust the right into
the loose soil, and lift the dirt you
see above the plant of Fig. 2. Just as
you raise it, thrust the plant under
the back of your hand. Then let the
dirt fall into the plant and set your
foot on it as you step to the next
plant. An expert will take bunch of
so plants in his right hand and foot
adj in his right, and, lifting the dirt
with the ADJ, will plant as fast as
he walks. My boys can plant by hand
$50 feet of row in five minutes. Don't
plant the roots toward the south, else
the sun will hit the young plants hard.
Aside from raising the slips. I can
raise bushel of sweet potatoes as
cheaply as can Irish potatoes.-W. L..

Foods That Taint the Milk.

The presence of wild garlic or wild
onions in pastures, the use of tur-
nips and other feeds containing oil,
must be avoided where cows are Civ
ing large amount of milk. Feeds
which have bad odor, such as
silage, must be fed right after milk
ing, and at no other time; other
wise the milk and resulting butter
are apt to show the effects. In all
cases keep these feeds away from
the cow during milking time. Taints
from silage or other foul feeds are
transmitted through the air; conse-
quently if the air is full of silage
odor the milk is apt to show it. If,
however, feeds of this kind are given
directly after milking the product
from the cow cannot be distin-
guished from that produced from
other feeds, although condensing fac
tories and some creameries prohibit
its use.-New England Homestead.

Three Kind. of bacteria.

Bacteria are merely minute forms
of vegetable life. They do not, how
ever, require contact with the earth
to grow. Some of them can grow
in nothing but air, and others in liq-
uid. Some feed upon the components
of the milk and change it into other
forms of solids and liquids. Some
live in acids. So when the milk is
rendered sour by one set of bacteria
another set at once begins work to
change even that sourness into some
thing else. These changes are indi-
Gated by the gases that come from
the milk and that give us the sense
of smell. There are three general
classes of bacteria that work in milk;
the harmless, the beneficial and the
armful.-Farmers' Review.

potatoes. In the first case the potato
is cut in two pieces; in the second and

But cutting potatoes as indicated we

The Free Delivery system.

Rural mail delivery has become inn
mensely popular wherever it has been
tried, but in some places it has brought
forth protests from merchants and
saloon keepers in villages where farm
ers were accustomed to loaf while
waiting for the mail. The trade in
strong drink has fallen off more than
anything else, so that the free delivery
system is gradually bringing about
temperance reforms in rural commu-
mites, besides being great blessing
for the people benefited by its sery-
