Cement Floors and Rheumatism.
From the Farmers Review: We use
cement floor for our station herd,
and I am acquainted with two of the
most up-to-date dairies in this part OF
the country that also use cement
floors, and as far as have been able
to see there has not been case Of
rheumatism in our own herd, and
have heard no complaint from the pro-
prietors of the other dairies.
It Is true, think, that cement will
sometimes cause sore feet, and for
this reason it is necessary that more
bedding, be used than would be re-
quired on q wood floor. On the other
hand this bedding is not wasted as it
goes into the manure, and wood floor
is bound to become saturated with
urine and give of more or less odor
during the hot weather. AS far as
my knowledge goes I would prefer
the cement floor under every condition
that occurs to me at the present time.

JAPAN TO
SEND TROOPS
Two Regiments of Infantry
for COrea-lmpOrtant
Development

PARIS, Oct. 1-According to teliable
information received here, Japan has
decided to send two regiments of in
fantry to Corea. This is regarded In
authoritative quarters as being a most
important step as effecting Russo
Japanese relations and likely to accen-
.uate the possibilities of war crisis.
Japans decision is considered to be
directly related to Russia's PROPOSE
tion to evacuate Manchuria October
Sth. 1t is now accepted in the highest
quarters that this evacuation is i'm
possible of accomplishment as China
has not signed the terms Oh which
Russia conditioned her evacuation.
The advices received show that China
dGIliues to o,ntinue to )r35tlS Kas-
sian status in Manchuria rather than
commit herself to finally signing the
proposed agreement. In view of this
condition Japans decision to send
troops to Corea is regarded as being a
most significant step. The advices
further show that war spirit in Japan
has materially augmented during the
last fortnight.

WANTS TO BE
PRESIDENT
Buchanan Will Again Try for
Leadership of Iron Work
erS' Association

KANSAS CITY. October Frank
Buchanan of Chicago. today formally
announced his candidacy for re-elec-
ton as president of the international
Association of Bridge and Structural
Iron Workers. He had withheld this
announcement until the convention
should act upon his annual report.
He considers that he was emphatic
ally endorsed by the convention yes
terday, and processes to believe that he
will be reelected.
President Buchanan said: The
statements that Samuel Parks has
dominated this convention are redicu-
lous. The convention has emphatic
ally endorced me by adopting the ma
jority of the recommendations in my
report, including affiliation with the
American Federation of Labor. he
public may distort such action as be-
ing favorable to Parks if they want to,
but the fact is that Parks is simply
falling into line. AS soon as he saw
the way the convention was endors-
ing my recommendations, he made
haste to get into the band wagon"
The Parks crowd assert as emphat-
ically as ever that their candidate, II.
F. DonnelIy of Albany, will be elected.
The election will take place tomorrow
and the fight to name the head of the
organization will be the real struggle
of the convention. An important piece
of work accomplished at the morning
session today was the adoption of an
amendment to the constitution limit
ing the power of the president ana err
ecutive committee in calling strikes.
The Amendment as adopted provides
that in the case of general strikes or
in the ratification of national agree
ments, member from each focal shall
be called into the executive session and
given a voice in determining the ac-
ton to be taken. This in effect put
the power of ordering general strikes
in the hands of the locals themselves.
A personal victory for President
Buchanan was won when the eonven-
tion appropriated $3.50 10 pay the ex-
penses to Kansas City of Robert Mel
dig, the deposed president of union
No of New York. Neidig came to
the convention upon the invitation OF
President Buchanan and he was fought
by the Parks crowd principally. 1t was
said, because he had supported Pres,
dent Buchanan in upholding the la
ter's action in suspending Parks AM
local No. 2. Later, when he was re-
fused the privilege of sitting in the
Parks made a fight against
paving his expenses.
