PROSPECTS OF WAR.
Does war seem imminent between
Japan and Russia? That is a very
hard question to answer. For six
weeks while 1 was there Japan seemed
on the verge of declaring war, and
there is no doubt but that she is thor
oughly prepared and has many of her
soldiers in China, Manchuria and
Korea in citizens garb ready to organ
iz., as soon as the word is given. 1t is
my opinion that it would be a great
blunder in the present prosperous con-
dition of Japan for her to take the
burden of a costly war with a large
with a great many of the Emperor's
ibSects war is very popular and the
country is thoroughly united. 1t was
the opinion of foreigners there that if
war did not break out in September
next month-it would not come at all.
But Japan no doubt will control Korea
at all hazards and it is my opinion
that some sort of compromise will be
reached by which Russia will work
with a free hand in Manchuria and
Japan will control in Korea.
HONOLULU MEN IN SHANGHAI.

who is representing the American syn

Hankow to Canton which is a very
large enterprise. by the way, and more
concessions seem to have been recently
granted TO the syndicate. No doubt,
but what they will open up the country
with a net work of railroads. Mr.. Por-

Col. Macfarlane's interview was not

owing to a breakdown of machinery.
The remainder follows below:
OUR ATTRACTIONS BETTER.
after visiting the principal cities L
felt an interest in looking into the main
attractions for tourists in Japan and so
visited the principal tourist resorts.
| but could not see that the attrac-
tons equalled those OF Hawaii Japan
Is beautiful and she may have the
scenic attractions of Hawaii but there
is certainly not the climate and the
social life that can be found here.
THE PROGRESSIVE JAP.
II was much impressed with the
hustle. activity and life OF the Japanese
and the very prosperous condition of
the country. but as large as tourists
figures are. this does not by any means
constitute the mainstay of the coun-
try. 1 found the Industrial progress of
Japan to be something remarkable.
The exports OF japan to June S0th. for
six months. were at the rate OF $780,
OOO. 600 for the year. an increase for the
last four years of $5O.OOO,OOO. This
marvellous rate OF increase has no
parallel in modern times or past times
in any country on the globe. In four
years the exports were more than dou-
bled.
MORE ABOUT TOURISTS.
IT have gathered much information
about tourist traffic in Japan and l
find that the great number OF tourists
seem to come from England and
Europe by direct German, French and
English mail steamship lines. Little or
nothing seems to be known of Hawaii |
at the principal Japanese or Oriental |
points and over in that direction the |
best efforts should be made to secure |
a share of the business. Many tourists |
no doubt could be induced to lay over |
at Honolulu If only advertising matter |
was properly put before them by some |
intelligent and energetic agent or
agents who would have influence
enough to work through American
railroad lines and the Pacific Mail
Steamship Co and those lines that CO.
operate with them.
Much could be accomplished by in
telIigent and systematized effort and
BY appointing good live agents at the
main Oriental ports. For instance dur
ng the Durbar jubilee in India if we had
had an agent there like T. D. Mckay.
Who is representing the Huntington and
,ther American railway and steamship
ines. we might have had any num-
Der OF tourists. We ought with such
magnificent steamers as the Korea and
Siberia now running (and found no
steamer to equal them) secure large
share of the tourist traffic. 1t is set
led that we will have other steamers of
he same size to cooperate with them

Yes, 1 saw Volcano Marshall. 1t
appears that Mr. Gray's railroad is
backing Marshall's paper, the Shanghai
Times. saw Mr.. Marshall only for a
few minutes just before leaving to take
the launch to the steamer. He had a
doing extremely well with his paper
and was very enthusiastic about it's
prospects. He told me that DR.. Sloggett
was there, also Judge Davidson, all
doing well in practice In fact every
body seemed prosperous in Shanghai;
its municipal government was a model
one. Both Mr.. Cleghorn and myself
were much impressed by the place.
II also saw Frank Vida, who was
formerly with the Union Feed Co. He
is employed by the railroad company
at a large salary.
THE SUGAR STORY.
'The Japanese papers were misled in
regard to the story they published re-
garding our intentions towards the SUI
gar industry. 1 simply inquired into
sugar refinery they talked of starting
there and the possibilities of sugar de-
velopment. 1t was not with the inten-
ton of investment, but with the idea
of learning whether Japan would be
formidable competitor of Hawaii with
it's line of cheap labor so near at hand.
The conclusion 1 reached was that we
here need have no anxiety on that score
as neither sugar cane or beets can be
grown successfully there. 1t is too wet
for beets and the climatic conditions
do not favor the cultivation of sugar
cane. What Formosa or the Philip
pines may do in that direction am I'M
able to say as we had no opportunity
to study what can be done in that
line"

LAMB AND sTRETCHER

young as eight weeks. The market
for them extends from Christmas to
Easter, according to the Ohio Farmer
correspondent, who further says:
To prepare a dressed lamb for ship
ment sew about each lamb a square
yard of clean, new muslin, as shown
in the cut. We have shipped in yari-
Gus ways, and by both express and re-
frigerator freight. We now place each
lamb on stretcher, as shown in the
second figure, and then wrap in burlap,
which we get of the furniture dealers.
We tried shipping in crates, but the
crates would get crushed.
The diagram is slight modification
in form from the stretcher shown with
lamb on it. The side pieces should be
about two inches wide and a half-inch
thick, and made of light, strong tim
Der, such as poplar, Eastwood or elm.
The ten-inch cross-piece should be one
and half inch square; A is ten
penny rail driven through this piece
diagonally, pointing toward the short
projecting ends of the side pieces. This
is to hold the lambs neck in position,
as it is forced down upon it. Press the
front legs down upon the neck and hold
there with Irvine around the stretch
er. Loop short pieces of Irvine about
the hind legs above the hooks and draw
tightly, fastening at B. The legs should
be cut off below the knee and hook.

Effective Bath for Swine.

A breeder thus tells how he prepared
a bath for swine: 'Some yea& ago
we tried an experiment by making a
shallow bath, four feet wide and ten
feet long, of planks, with sides eight
inches high. This, being bedded in
puddled clay, was easily made water
tight. The whole thing did not cost
more than three hours labor. Water
was pumped from stock well near by
and run into this bath by spout.
Gravel was placed some inches deep
around the bath to prevent mud. The
water was drawn off and the bath re-
filled every day. The pigs did not re-
quire any teaching. We have seen
seven pigs in it at once, and the others
trying to root them out so they could
get possession"

Dry Quarters for Horses.

In the days of muddy yards it takes a
surprisingly short time for even few
horses or cattle to tramp moderate
sized lot into genuine quagmire, and
it is positive shame to ask horses
Tor cattle, either, for that matter)
to lie down and rest in such disgrace
full quarters. At that, however, it does
not much matter how much asking is
done, the horses will not lie down. In
stead, they will hang around the driest
spots in the yard, where the mud is
least deep and chew and gnaw all night
They keep awake, and must have some
thing to do, SO they get into one of the
worst and most annoying habits that
ever cursed horse, young or Old

Expert Picking of Poultry.

Some OF the expert pickers of poul-
try can take the feathers off the fowls
so quickly as to astonish ole who does
not understand the opera ton. It is
done by dipping each carcass in cold
water and allowing it to drip. Finely
pulverized resin is then busted over
and among the feathers, which causes
the feathers to stick to the hands. even
the pin feathers coming out with but
little difficulty. Use the common
crude resin, about one-half teaspoon
full for each fowl.--Farm and Fire

HOW TO SHIP LAMBS.
Il Pays Well to Prepare the CarcasseS
with Neatness, Each Placed On
q Strctcher.

Winter lambs for market should
weigh not less than 45pounds alive, and
be fat. THIS condition is determined
somewhat accurately by feeling the
brisket and the tail near the body. A
high degree of fairness is more impor-
tant than weight, as they sell by the
carcass, rather than by weight. The
weight of two lambs being the same,
the younger one will sell higher. The
evidences of age are the fleece and the
degree of Justification in the bones.
Most lambs are marketed between the
ages of ten and 16 weeks, few as

Paperins Hen House walls.

It will cost but little to paper the
outer walls of poultry house with
waterproof paper. 1t is better to place
the paper on the outside, as it then
protects the boards from becoming
wet. One plan, however, is to strip the
boards on the outside and paper the
house on the inside. This can be done
with any ordinary paper-wrapping
paper being excellent-two thickness
es being applied, and it can be removed
in summer, as it will then afford a
harboring place for lice. The better
plan is to use waterproof paper, which
if painted will last for years.
