Save the Straw.

When planned before thresling, a
stackshed may be made the equal of any
shelter. 1t can he built as an open
shed or in the form OF stall, which lie
an ideal place for young pigs that APP
pear in the dead OF winter. A straw
shed also provides warm place to store
large quantities OF roots. such as tur-
nips, sugar bets or mangels conven-
iently for feeding in cold weather. II
for no other purpose straw should be
stacked near the corral for bedding pur-
noses. IL gives comfort and health to
tho animals, acts as sn aDsol bent in re-
tai ing liquid manure aud il hauled

quantities of humus so much needed 10y

German farmer who has little education
but great deal of insight into proper
methods OF fertilizing and cultivaiiDg
crops, once said that the straw was tn,
grease to his soil-that it had the same
relation TO his soil that grease had Il
the usefulness OF his wagon. Regular,
AMI in good time did his large straw
stacks pass Dist through his stalls and
then into his fields again to make III,

LEWIS NIXON IS NOT
OBLIGED TO TESTIFY
Court Holds that Calhoun Has
Enough Evidence to Frame His
Suit for 100000.

NEW YORK. Dec. 2S.-Lewis Nixon to-
day obtained from Justice Leventritt in
the Supreme Court an order vacating a
prior order for his examination before trial
in a suit brought by John c. Calhoun
against the Trust Company of the Repub-
lie, George c. Boldt, Lewis Nixon, James
F. Livingston and other defendants to re-
cover about 100000 claimed by Calhoun for
selling in England quantity of bonds of
the United States Shipbuilding Company.
Calhoun alleges that he was engaged by
the defendants TO negotiate the sale of the
bonds in England and he succeeded in dis
posing of about 100000 of bonds. His
compensation at the rate of 5 per cent.
would have amounted, if he had been al
lowed to sell all, to about 500, 900, the sum
claimed by him. He asserts he was de-
barred from securing his commission. He
asked for Mr.. Nixons examination before
trial in order to frame his complaint.
Justice Leventritt said he considered Cal
houn had facts enough in his possession to
frame his complaint.

HOPEFUL VIEW TAKEN
BY RUSSIAN OFFICIALS
Delay in Presenting Reply to Japan
Not Regarded at St. Peters
burg as Ominous.
CAR PREFERS PEACE
But Does Not Wish to Be Caught
Mapping, and Therefore is
Preparing for War.

ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 2S.-In Official
circles here the delay in presenting Rus
sias reply 10 Japan is not regarded IS
Ominous. on the contrary, the fact that
Russia. in accordance with Japan's re-
quest, is actually reviewing the matters in
dispute is regarded as a favorable sign.
1t is pointed out that had Russia replied
Immediately unfavorable deductions might
have been drawn, and although Russia be-
lieves her proposals were extremely con-
ciliatory containing all the concessions she
can make, this does not exclude the posi-
bility of finding alternative propositions in
some portion of the general scheme of set
Element. which may more closely coincide
with Japans wishes II careful reconsid-
GRAFTON discloses the possibility Of such
course it is said there is every reason to
believe it will gladly be embraced.
The consensus Of unofficial opinion among
those associated with the government, but
not responsible therefore is that the Car
is so peacefully disposed that he will make
such concessions to Japan as are necessary
TO prevent war, provided that no unforeseen
events force the hands of the governments
concerned. At the same time the Car, it
is pointed out. agrees with those who be-
safeguard of peace, and that apparent
willingness to allow matters to be sub
mitted to the test OF arms is more likely
to lead to satisfactory compromise than
an exhibition of overmuch peacefulness.
This unofficial opinion, however, believes
the controlling party in Russia regards
Korea as necessary to the consolidation of
Russian interests in the far East, and is
into Japanese hands. and that any conces-
sions Russia now makes to Japan will only
be with the object Of deferriDg the diff
Guilty until a more seasonable time. There
is not likely to be much difficulty in find
ing money in case of war. a foreign loan
on acceptable terms is probably impossible,
but the Russian banks and merchants have
ample funds on which the government could
draw.
One reason why the British alarmist
news fails to convince the Russians is the
perfect understanding here of the benefits
Great Britain derives from a continuance
of the strained situation. 1t known
here a year ago that Great Britain was
planning to occupy Thibet and extend the
railroad to a point in the Yangste valley.
which is reachable by gunboats from the
sea. Great Britain's forward movement at
this time eXcites both admiration and rage,
the former for the clever political move,
the latter because Russia is preoccupied
in the far East that she is unable TO pre-
vent Great Britain from creating her own
Manchuria in the Yangste provinces. 1t is
pointed out Sere that the present situa-
ton affords Great Britain the same oppor-
tunity actual war between Russia and
any third power.

CHINA RECEIVES COLD
COMFORT FROM RUSSIA

PEKING, Dec. 2S.-Lien-Fang, first sec
rotary of the Board of Foreign Affairs, Wis
tied Russian Minister Lessar to-day and re-
quested information concerning the inten-
tons of the Russian government regarding
the evacuation of Manchuria. Minister Les
sar, in reply, said that nothing could be
done at present with a view of evacuation,
for two reasons. In the first place. the
minister pointed out the cold weather made
it impossible 10 remove the troops from
their present positions, and, besides, there
were no barrack accommodations to be had
elsewhere; and in the second place. he said,
il would endanger Russian interests to I'M
dertake evacuation during the progress of
the negotiations between Russia and Japan,
for the reason that Japan might seize the
opportunity to invade Manchuria.
The Chinese government is so alarmed at
the prospect of being involved in the SEEM
ingly prospective war that 1t would prefer
that Russia should remain in control of
Manchuria. As an alternative, the foreign
office has indicated to the ministers that a
settlement satisfactory to China would be
that Russia and Japan should retain their
respective treaty rights in Korea and Man
churfa If they agree not to attempt to OBJ
tain further advantages in either country.
The Russian commander imperatively re-
quested the Tartar general to disband his
militiamen and to disarm them. The Tartar
general issued an order in accordance with
this request, but ii is understood the men
are concealing their arms, supposedly with
the Tartar generals connivance.

MAY BE LAST TRIP WEST.
Condition" Rule Affecting Hard
ship on Princeton Students.

This years Western trip of the Princeton
musical clubs. in which Indianapolis was
the most Western point reached, may be
the last one taken by the glee, banjo and
mandolin clubs of that university. Too
stringent rules with regard to the scholar
ship requirements for membership in the
clubs is given as the cause of the difficulty.
For some years the faculty of Princeton
has enforced the same condition rule
the musical organizations that is enforced
on the various athletic teams. man who
has condition in any one of his studies is
not eligible for membership in the clubs,
and, as conditions are rather an easy thing
to acquire, this rule has barred many good
voices and good musicians from the clubs
and from participation in it's trips AS
natural consequence it has followed that
the clubs are hampered in their work of
getting a good schedule and profitable
trip For ten years the Princeton clubs
have not gone farther West than the Mis-
sssippi, while the clubs of other Eastern
schools have gone as far West Denver.
Discomfort has been caused, and there is
considerable talk at Princeton of a posi-
bilitY of no more Western trips.
