St Petersburg. July 1 q:35 p. m)- There was considerable rejoicing ID the Russian capital at this morning reports from the theater of war. From the headquarters at Mukden came the positive statement, made apparently on direct news from Port Arthur and prob ably brought by the torpedo boat Lieu tenant Burukoff to New Chwang, that none of the big Russian warships sus- tained any damage during the Japan csc torpedo boat attack of June 23 and 24 Also came the report that the Jap anese have lost a thousand men in a land fight before Port Arthur. From Liao-Yang came two separate reports that Major General Mistchenko had dealt the Japanese advance from Siu- Yen a severe blow by recapturing Dalfn pass, which was lost June 27. One of these reports, dated yesterday, says General Mistchenko has been in fiicting loss on the Japanese for several days capturing three guns and an ann munition train. Not any of these re- ports are official.
 The statement of war cOrreSpOn- dent that Russian officer told him he would rather fall a victim to Japan csc bullets than Jew surgeons has ere ated considerable indignation here, the Novosti denouncing it as a vile and gratuitous calumny, citing the exploits of two Jew surgeons, Drs Pouseff and Behraman, who, according to official reports, bandaged 600 wounded men on the field of battle, and the case of pr Banyash, who refused to leave the field although under hail of bullets.
 Testimony from all sources at the front shows that the rainy season has set in in southern Manchuria, which may bring the military operations to an abrupt close without a general engage ment. The opinion here Is that the Japanese, on account of the distance from their base, are liable to suffer the most transport difficulty, owing to the heavy roads, and that they may find themselves in critical position.

NON-PARTISAN IN SCOPE.
Facts Which Prove That the Good
Roads Movement Is of a Non
Partisan Character.

The non-partisan character of the
good roads movement has been en-
phasized in most significant manner
by the action of its leading represen-
tatives in congress. While the move
ment for national aid has many able
supporters in both houses, Representa-
tive Brownlow and Senator Latimer,
OF South Carolina, have been justly
recognized as its pioneers and leading
advocates. The former is an enthu-
siastic republican and the latter a
rock-ribbed democrat. But both are
for good roads first, last and all the
time, and together they have done
more than any other two men in the
United States. Both introduced bills
similar in principle, but differing in
important details. Now they have
come together and after consultation
with other friends of national aid, they
have agreed upon a single bill emDody-
ing the best features of both bills, aid
the new measure has been introduced
in both houses.
To emphasize the fact that the good
roads movement is also non-sectional,
and is favorable to the north as well
as the south, Senator Gallinger, of
New Hampshire, and Representative
Currie, of the same state have also in
PRODUCED the Observation-Disclosures bill.
The new bill provides for bureau Of
highways with three commissioners,
one being republican, one democrat,
and the third an army engineer, all
to be appointed by the president, and
subject to the control of the secretary
of agriculture. 1t also appropriates
$24 900 900 to be used during the peXt
roads throughout the United States.
This money is to be divided among the
states and territories on the basis OF
population. Half of the expense of
building the roads is to be paid by the
government and the other half by the
states or their civil subdivisions.
The demand for legislation of this
kind comes equally from the north
and the south. While it is recognized
that the need for such law is greater
in the south, there is nevertheless ur-
gent need for it in the north. While
the latter section has made more proga
ress in road building, only a good be-
ginning has been made even in the
older commonwealth. That the de-
mand for national aid is not limited
to the less wealthy sections is strong
ly evidenced by the fact that the New
York LEGISLATURE has recently adopted
resolution demanding the passage OF
the Brownlow bill. This action Is
the more significant when we consider
the fact that the rural districts alone
are to be the direct beneficiaries of
national aid, while large majority of
New York's people live in cities. II
New York favors such legislation, how
much more should such states as Iowa,
Arkansas and many other common
wealths whose population is almost
wholly rural and agricultural.

The Breathing of Trees.

Besides giving out oxygen in assim-
ilation, trees also take in oxygen from
the air through their leaves, and through
the minute openings in the bark called
lenticels, such as the oblong raised spots
or marks on the young branches OF
birch and cherry and many other
trees. says a student of tree life All
plants, like animals, breathe; and plants,
like animals, breathe in oxygen anG

it is far less active than assimilation.
which takes place only in the light.
Consequently more carbonic acid gas is
taken into the tree than is given out,
and the surplus carbon remains to be
used in growing.

While it is true that Peruna cures ca

Advance in Land Values.

The advance in land values has been
very marked during the past six years.
Good agricultural lands are steadily in
creasing in price, and there is no pros
pect of a reduction or decline. Our
population increases steadily, while
there can never be any more acres of
land on the earth's surface than at
present 1t annually requires more of
farm products to feed the increasing
population, and prices must therefore
rule higher and higher and farming
become more and more intensified and
remunerative.-Midl Farmer.

Save Your Horse Hides.

1t has occurred to us that farmers and
horse dealers are not generally aware
of the fact that horse hides, whether
taken off from slaughtered horses or
those which have died by disease or per-
ished from other causes, have market
value. Farmers should not allow the
hides of their fallen stock to go to waste.
Fair-sized horse hides, free of cut holes
and other blemishes, are now bringing
from So to 1926 in Milwaukee.

the bolts which support the roof. They
are set four feet in the ground and IS
feet apart as that is a convenient size
to make a barrack. The plates are
four by six inches, made of white pine
or some other light wood, as is all the
material of the roof. Lightness is i'm.
portant and the roof boards are made
on one-half inch material. The brace
across the corner is made of 2 inch
plank spiked strongly to the plates,
1t is of such height that the rafter
which rests on it if projected through
the corner post, would meet the frame
at intersection of the plates. The roof
boards are cut around the corners,
leaving a hole a few inches larger
than the corner posts. A little rain
that gets in at the corners or through
the roof does practically no harm as
the open condition of the barrack ia
vors quick drying. Barracks are much
to be preferred to stacking; are con-
venient and cheaply built.-G. Davis,

He has made chronic catarrh life

known as Peruna, is the most famous
remedy for catarrh in existence.

MAKING THE ARMY USEFUL
Agricultural Paper Suggests En-
ployment of Idle Soldiers in Con-
struction of Highways.

Gen. Miles has been developing
scheme whereby the army when not in
service, which is most of the time, may
be relieved Of the monotony of a life with
nothing to do but eat and sleep, and at
the same time be of some practical use
to the country. He proposes that they
be supplied with modern road machinery
and set to improving the roads of the
country. There is much good hard sense
in this proposition. There has recently
been considerable effort made to restore
to the soldier the privileges of the can
teen on the ground that in his enforced
idlenesS there were other and worse
evils, which were liable to take posses
sion of his time when the canteen was
refused him. We believe the PROPOSE
ton to give him something to do will re-
lieve the monotony of his position in
a way that will be far better for him and
for the country in general, and certainly
more TO the credit of the nation. So
long as these regiments must be main
tanned at public expense, why not have
them employ their time in way that
would be for their good and of practical
value to the general public. While our
army is vastly smaller than that main
tanned by most other countries of SINH
lar proportions and the expense of main
tanning it is consequently less burden
some, yet if it can be employed at some
useful occupation this burden will be
still farther reduced. Every little helps
in cutting down the expenses, and with
the large and increasing demands for
public Improvements along various lines
all over the country, it is certainly ad
visable to adopt economic changes
wherever practical.-Prairie Farmer.
