Those Interested in Cultiva-
ton Of Potatoes.

Secretary f D. Russell of the Com
mercial league has received letter
from Mr. S, r. Young, industrial and
immigration agent of the Missouri Pa
cific read, saying that he is ready at
any time to come to this city and talk
to the growers association with refer
ence to the raising of irish potatoes for
the market. Mr.. Young is man of
twenty years experience in the agri-
cultural business and is we'll informed
on all subjects pertaining to the indus
try. | It's probable that a meeting will
be arranged at an early date and Mi.
Young will be invited t, address those
interested. Arkansas offers ar excel
lent field for the industry and in many
places large crops of the product Will
be planted next year. 1t is thought
that an address by Mr.. Young as to
the practical points on raising and
marketing the product would be OF
much value to those interested.

The Russian policy in Manchuria
may be said to be due to the necessity
of finding new markets for her indus

out Russia's ambition in the Manchur-

the transportation Of her own mer-

she has no real advantage over the
