SHIPS ARE PROBABLY
STILL AT PORT ARTHUR

Russian Headquarters, Lao Yang.
June S.-The rumor that the Russian
squadron has sailed out of Port Arthur
remains unconfrmed here.
Unimportant engagements continue
to take place on the Feng Wang Cheng
road between the Molten mountains
and the Japanese positions. They are
principally between Japanese cavalry
and the Russian advance posts.
The reports that the Russians had
retaken Saimatsza, which the Japanese
had previously occupied are confirmed
Skirmishes are occurring in the neigh
borhood of Pu Ian Tien (about for
ty miles north of Port Adams).
The Japanese lacking good cavalry,
are adopting the system of using in
fantry supports in their reconnais-
sances. The Cossacks rarely attack
without finding such supports.

AMERICAN MARINES
LANDED AT TANGIER,

Washington, June S.-American ma
rines have landed in Tangier. Admiral
Chadwick this afternoon cabled the
Navy Department from Tangier as fol-
lows:
Il have placed guard at the Bel
gian legation, having been asked to do
so through our consul general here"
1t is said at the State Department
that there is ample precedent for the
employment of an American naval
force for the temporary protection of
the exposed interests of another pow
er which has no available force at
hand. 1t is supposed here that the
Belgian legation is in an outlying Sec
ton of the city easily accessible to the
tribesmen of the interior.

trouble is due to catarrh. The major
ity of the people think that catarrh is
disease confined to the head alone.
This is. rot true. Catarrh is liable TO
attack any organ of the body; throat,

MUSHROOM GROWING
PROFITABLE INDUSTRY UNDER
PROPER CONDITIONS.
Temperature, Moisture and Soil the
Three Things Which Must Be
Closely Watched ~ Growing
Demand for the Fungi.

In the United States the term "mush-
room" refers commercially to but a sim
gle species (Agaricus campestris) OF
the feshy fungi, a plant common
throughout most of the temperate re-
gions of the world, and one everywhere
recognized as edible. From the time Of
Pliny, and perhaps much earlier, this
plant has been sought as an article of
diet, and it has been cultivated for many
centuries
The successful cultivation OF mush-
rooms in America has not been SO gem
eral as in most of the European coun-
tries. 1t is In France and in England
that the mushroom industry has been
best developed. France is properly
speaking, the home of the present mush-
room industry. Unusual interest has
been shown in the United States in the
growth of mushrooms within the past
few years, and it is to be hoped and exc
peoted that within the next ten years
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1904-09-27


the industry will develop to the fullest
limit of the market demand.
Mushrooms may be grown in any place
where the conditions of temperature and
moisture are favorable. A shed, cellar,
cave, or vacant space in a greenhouse
may be utilized to advantage for this
purpose. The most essential factor, per-
haps, is that Of temperature. The proper
temperature ranges from So degrees to
so degrees f., with the best from 55 de-
grees I'd So. degrees f. 1t is unsafe to
attempt to grow mushrooms on COM
mercial basis, according to our present
knowledge Of the subject, at tempera-
ture much less than SO degrees or greater
than So degrees f.
A second important factor is that OF
moisture. The place should not be very
damp, or constantly dripping with
water Under such conditions success
full commercial work is not possible. A
place where 1t is possible to maintain q
fairly moist condition of the atmosphere,
and having such capability for ventila
tion as will cause at least gradual
evaporation, is, by general practice and
ny llO 4t1Ntot CAtO1A0AHO AAAA40AANes14OAA,
shown to be necessary.
In the growing Of mushrooms for COM
mercial purposes, the beds should be
constructed of stable manure which has
been fermented or composted. Many ex-
periments have been made looking to-
ward the substitution Of other composts
Or waste products for stable manure, but
nothing has yet been found which may be;
more highly recommended. Fresh
manure should be obtained, and this
should include the litter used for bed
ding the animals, unless the latter con-
sists Of coarse weeds.
| The manure should be piled in heaps
about three'feet deep when well pressed
down with the fork, and these piles may
be Of considerable extent 1t should be
watered until well moistened through

| four or five days or week it will be nec-
essary to fork over or turn" the
manure. "A second turning will be re-

and it may be necessary to water again
