Corn Fodder and Peas.

Corn is another excellent fodder
crop. but the best fodder is that COM
sisting of small tender stalks. which
are usually juicy and sucoulent In
order TO add to the quality the fodder
should be sown thickly in rows and
cut when quite green. Some prefer 90
cut corn fodder when the corn Is ia
tassel and others at the tine the
young corn begins to al out. when it
is cured. stored and fed. after being
cut into small lengths; Il is suggested.
however. that corn can be cut when
about three feet high, and tied In bum
dies. The advantage OF this method
Is that two crops may be grown the
same season, and II properly cured and
stored il does not crumble so readily
II is an excellent clean food for horses,
and may be fed in the bundle on IN the
manner mentioned for oats. Peas am
swer best early in the season. and are
suitable for cattle and sheep. They are
usually sOwn with oats and fed directed
from the nold TO the stock in the yards
under the soiling method. Such a crop
may be fed and gotten out Of the way
for late corn fodder crop, or for tur-
nips. In attempting to grow two crops
on the same location, however the land
must be manured heavily, or It will be
injured. though the exhaustion viii not
be so great as when such crops are
allowed to mature and produce seeds.

Notes Ahout the Earnn.

1t is estimated that the cost Of a
COW for one year. for food alone, is
about s25. This amount she must re-
turn to her owner before she can make
any profit. and yet there win remain
the cost of the labor and shelter. for
which she will pay with the manure, as
| it possesses value as we'll as the milk.
If the farmer cannot get enough from
the COW to pay for the food she eats
he will keep her at = loss. AT s25 per
year the cost is about cents per day.
The price of the milk IN market will
determine the value OF the COW. II
She produces $500 quarts M a year the
cost viii be l cent per quart II she
produces over that quantity the cost OF
each quart viii be reduced. All cows
cannot be kept for one year at so low
h cost but as there must be an ex-
pense for the COW, whether she proves
valuable or not the dairyman should
seek the best animals TO be had in
order TO reduce the cost Of the pro-
duct. He can only do so by using the
breeds. for if.he steps outside and re-
sorts to the open market In order to
purchase his COWS. instead OF raising
them, he win incur the liability OF add
ing inferior animals to his herd.

During the year farmers should not

BASE BALLISTS ARRESTED
A Test To Be Made in Greater New
 York.

New York, April 24.-Whether play ing base ball games in Greater New York on Sunday is illegal is to be de- cided on the last case, the first step in which was taken today under instrIc- tions issued by Police Commissioner McAdoo.
 At the outset of the game at Wash ington park, Brooklyn today, the police arrested Pitcher Poole and Catcher Jacklitsch of the home team and Frank Roth of the Philadelphia team after the first named had pitched the second ball. They are charged with violation of the penal code, which prohibits racing, gaming and other public sports on the first day of the week. Manager Han lon of the Brooklyn club then sub stituted Thatcher and Ritter as the local battery and the game proceeded without further interruption.
 Besides the players sellers of score cards were arrested. Today, however, the prisoners were admitted to $200 bail each and they will have a hearing tomorrow.

GETTING READY TO CROSS
An Extension of the Japanese Line Opposite Whose Strongest Points
 the Russians Are Nassing to Resist Advance-Uneasiness at Shanghai

Seoul Saturday, April 23.-Advices received here state the Japanese lines are now extended thirty miles along the Yalu river. reaching from Yon- gampo to ten miles above Wiju. The Russians are strongest at Antung. Tiger Hill is, as it was in the China Japanese war, the Key to the situation. Three islands, one above and two be- low Wiju will facilitate an attack as they offer base for artillery to cover the crossing of the Yalu.
 It is reported that the Japanese are landing troops ard constructing build- ings at Hung Chuan, below Yongampo. Advices from the province of flag Yung in northeastern Korea, state that the country folk along the northern border of the province are selling cattle and supplies to the Russians. The province of Hang-Yung is the former home of Yi-Yong-Il1. former Korean minister of finance, who on account of his pro- Russian sympathies was transported to Japan last February by the Japanese authorities. Several Ko- rean officers suspected of being Rus sian spies, have been arrested.

 Next fall a new water system is to be put in. This will include the laying of mains connecting with the various buildings and the construction of a reservoir with a capacity of 250OO0 gallons. The reservoir will be located on the top of a small knoll just east of the officers quarters. The city water will be used, the pressure in the city mains being sufficient to carry the water to the reservoir without any auxiliary power.
 The Improvements are directly under the control of Major Walcutt, acting under instructions from the quarter master generals office at Washington Assisted by a corps of able deputies. Mayjor Walcutt is watching every detail of the work and he is pleased with the results. We are fortunate in securing such good contractors said Major Walcutt in talking to a representative of The Republican. They are doing their work eXcellently and if we are as fortunate in the future as we were on these contracts. there will be no doubt as to the quality of the work"
 Major Holbrook has command of Whipple Barracks. There is only one company. l. troop of the fifth cavalry now stationed at the barracks, but it is the intention of the government to increase the force as the accommoda- tions improve. I company of the 29th infantry now returning from the Phil ippines has been ordered to the local barracks and will arrive here during the next thirty days. When the new barracks are completed there will be accommodations for eight companies or approximately 600 men. This will prove a great source of revenue to Prescott, and in the meantime the construction
 of the buildings means the employment
 of a large force of men and the eX-
 penditure of a great amount of money, aI large portion of which will be spent in this city.
 The barracks were first established
 December 2l, 1863. At that time they were located twenty miles northeast of the present site. September, 1864, the l barracks, then known as Camp , Whipple were moved to the present | site and the name hanged to Fort ! Whipple. Tn 1879 the name was chang | ed to Whipple Barracks.

The ministries Of finance ana transportation have, during the latest years, been literally swamped with petitions coming not only from railroad and construction companies, but also from representa- tives of local interests as mining manufacturing and Agricultural groups. The length of Russian rail- ways in Europe alone has thus consid- erably increased during the last ten years, and surpasses now that of France and Great Britain, respectively, being inferior only to that of Germany.
 Simultaneously with the redemption of the greater part of Russian rail- ways the government undertook the difficult task of regulating the railway tariffs for both passengers and goods. The principles adopted were those of the zone" tariff, and the results of the innovation have been very encour- aging, for both paesenger ad freight traffic have increased considerably since the introduction of the new tariffs.

GREAT KANSAS FLOOD
Fort SCGtt Almost Isolated From the
 Rest of the World.

Fort Scott. Kansas, April 2i.-Fort Scott is experiencing the most serious flood in its history. Marmaton river and Mill creek, which runs into the former stream here, have risen ten feet in the past twenty-four hours, the re- suit of heavy rains. Several hundred persons have been rescued in beats. So far as known tonight no lives have beer lost. The estimated loss to live stock drowned and property damaged is $lOO,OOO.
 The two streams began to rise at 10 o'clock last night and today the city was divided into three sections and al- most completely isolated. Normal y Mill creek runs into the Marmatoa river northeast of the city, but because of the rapid rise they formed a new channel that cut across one end of the city. Tonight the entire northern part of the city is cut off and that part of the city inundated. Ten feet of water is rushing through the streets in that part of the city and several hundred persons in what is known as Belltown have been forced to leave their homes Many being taken away in boats.

HUNGARIAN DISORDERS
End of the Strike and Beginning of
 Political Riot.

Buda Pest, April 24.-The railway strike has completely collapsed and freight and passenger traffic was re- sumed today. The government took a decided step to deal with the strikers in ordering all the reserve men liable to military service to join their re- spective regiments. A larger force of police under the chief commissioner and two squadrons of Hussars sur rounded the strikers completely. The strike leader. Sarlay, was immediately arrested on the charge of melting dis order, and treason for adverse criticism of the royal decree calling out the en- gineer reserve men for service on the railroad.
 Addressing the strikers, the. commits sioner declared that all who had com mitted breaches of the law would be prosecuted. In the meantime every one present must produce proof of his iden- tity and all liable to military service would receive an enrolment order from the recruiting officer and be required to join their respective corps this evening" A committee representing the strikers waited on the minister of commerce later in the day and announced that the men were willing to accept the govern ment's terms.
 A serious riot is reported to have taken place at the market town of Elesd, near ross Warden, resulting from a collision between meetings of the socialist and independent raTties. While order was being restored by the gendarmerie, socialist fired re- volver, killing the commander. The gendarmes thereupon fired a volley, killing twenty-three of rioters and se- verely wounding forty. The military were summoned from Gross Warden.

Exports of American Man.
 ufaCtured Articles
TWENTY MILLIONS GAIN
There Is Too the Handicap of the Far Eastern War-Imports at Same Time Show Satisfactory Compari- son With the Best Previous Year.

Washington, April 24.-EXports of manufactures from the United States seem likely 60 make their highest rec ord in the fiscal year which ends with the month Of June. 1904. In the eight months. ending with February, for which the department of commerce and labor, through it's bureau of statistics, announces the figures of exports of manufactures, the total is twenty mill lion dollars larger than in the corre- spending eight months of the fiscal year 1900, which was the record year in exports of manufactures. For the eight months ending with February, 1904, the total eXportation of manufac~ lures was $2SS, 400 924. against $26S,5S7,- 972 in the cores bonding months of 1SC0.
 While conditions in the far east are causing considerable diminutiOn in the exports of cotton manufactures from the United States, practically all of the other important exports show a marked increase, and it seems not im- probable that the grand total for the year will exceed that of the banner year 1900, and certainly that the total for 1904 will compare favorably with that greatest year in our exports os manufactures and surpass that of any other year. An analysis of the details of exports just made by the depart ment of commerce and labor. through it's bureau of statistics, shows an in~ crease in nearly all of the important articles other than cotton goods as compared with last year or earlier years.
 Iron and steel exports show ar in crease of nearly two million dollars for the single month of February and of about five millions for the eight months ending with February. Miner al oils show an increase of one million dollars in the, month of February and of over eight millions in the eight month period under consideration. Copper manufactures show for the month of February an increase of nearly three million dollars, and fer the eight months an increase of nearly twelve millions; leather and it's man ufactures show for the eight months a slight increase; agricultural imple- ments an increase for the eight months of two and a half millions; chemicals show a slight increase in the month of February, also a slight increase in the eight months ending with February; and this is also true of paper manu- factures, scientific instruments, fibre manufactures, cars and carriages, india rubber manufactures, clocks and watches.
 On the import side conditions arc al- so satisfactory. The check in :mpor- tations of manufacturers materials seems to have been but temporary, as the total importation of raw material for use in manufacturing was, in Feb ruary. 1904. equaled in total value by that of February, 1908, while in many cases prices were considerably less, indicating an actual increase in quan-

For the eight months ending with February, 1904, the total value of raw material imported for fell but ten million dol lars below the extraordinary nigh fig ure for the corresponding months of the preceding fiscal year, and this is probably accounted for, in part at least, by the reduction in prices.
