When the John A. Salzer Seed Co., of La
Crosse, Wis, introduced this remarkable
grass three years ago, little did they dream
It would be the most talked of grass in
America, the biggest, quick, hay producer
on earth, but this has come to pass.
Ayr. Editors wrote about it, Ayr. Col
lcge Professors lectured about it, Ayr. In
stitute Orators talked about it, while in
the farm home by the quiet fireside, in the
corner grocery, in the village post-office, at
the creamery, at the depot, in fact wher-
ever farmers gathered, Salzer's Billion Dol
lar Grass, that wonderful grass, good for
5 to IA tons per acre and lots of pasture
besides, is always theme worthy of the
farmers voice.
Then comes Bromus Inermis, than which
there is no better grass or better permanent
hay producer on earth. Grows wherever
soil is found. Then the farmer talks about

stocks from one kernel of seed, II fit. high,

An amusing method of securing the mar

RUSSIA TO ABANDON
ALL MANCHUR|A
Alexieff Declares Port Arthur Can
Not Hold Out Very Long.
ABOLISAES THE CENSORSHIP
This Abolition In Regarded As the
Most Important Act Since the
Emancipation of the RUS
sian Serfs.

Washington, Feb. 20-Secretary
Hay has been informed that Edwin
" Morgan will not be granted an ex-
equatur by the Russian government,
authorizing him to act as United
State consul at Dalny, near Port Ar
thur.
Mr.. Morgan Is now on his way from
Washington to his post. He will sail
from San Francisco and touch at Yo-
kohama, at which point the state de-
partment will be able to advise him,
month hence, what course to pursue.
This decision on the part of the Rus
sian government was not altogether un-
expected, but it is, nevertheless, the
subject of grave consideration by the
state department officials. Secretary
Hay regarded the matter as of suffi-
icent Importance as to warrant a per-
sonal visit to the White House Friday,
where we represented the facts to the
president
1t can be stated that up to this mo-
ment decision has not been reached
as to the answer to be made to the
Russian government 1t is said that
the reasons assigned for the declina-
ton to receive Mr. Morgan are entirely
impersonal. In fact, Mr.. Morgan,
having been for several years one of
the American secretaries of embassy
at ST. Petersburg, is really very pop
ular with the Russian officials, who
would be glad to receive him as a
consul if political considerations did
not forbid. 1t is explained that the
reason for Russia's action is purely
military, the army officers desiring
that there shall be no foreign officials
on the Liao-Tung peninsula during the
progress of hostilities.
But the impression here is that this
action is one way of showing resent
ment against America for its universal
sympathy with Japan.
This action is coupled with Russia's
declination to take part in the st.
Louis Worlds fair, and will produce
bad impression, if nothing else, all over
the United States.
The foreign office reports that Vice
roy AleXieff explained that as Dalny |
was practically in state of siege and |
commerce it was impracticable |
to allow consuls or consular agents |
there during the period Of hostilities.

THE REAL THING.
Tortoise She'll ''Direct from TOrt0i'
Where the Reptiles Were
Doubtless Raised.

Less genuine tortoise shell is imported
In New York from India now than there
has been for a great many years, owing to
the active efforts of the Jams. This, says
the New York Times, is an influential sect
of humanitarians with headquarters at
Bombay, but with thriving communities
throughout the empire. Their mission on
behalf of the tortoise is much the same
as that of the Audubon societies in this
country with regard to birds. Great
cruelties, the Jams allege, are practiced
in the tortoise shell trade, and they are
trying to stop it. A woman who had read
about this movement went into a Broad
way store and looked at some tortoise shell
combs.
But are they genuine" she asked.
There are so many limitations in the
market now"
oh, yes, these are genuine" replied the
dealer. we get them from our own
agents, direct from Tortoi."

TWO DYNAMITECARS EXPLODE
Twenty-Three Persons Killed and
AS Many More Were Injured.
Five locomotives Were Reduced to
Scrap Iron and Everything With
in Half Mile Was Wrecked.

Salt Lake City, Utah, Feb. 20.-A
special to the Herald from Ogden
says:
Two cars of dynamite attached to
a work train on the Ogden.Lucin cut
OF of the Southern Pacific railroad
exploded with terrific force late Fri
day afternoon at Jackson station, 88
miles west of Ogden, killing at least
twenty-three persons, injuring as
many more and destroying a large
amount of property. The list of the
dead and injured had not been re-
ceived up to midnight, but is thought
large proportion of the victims were
Greek laborers. Among the known
dead are Conductor George Dermody,
of Ogden, and his train crew. 1t is
also reported that a fireman named
Burt, with his wife and three children,
were killed. The explosion wrecked
everything within a radius of half a
mile.
Jackson station was used principal
ly as telegraph station, but a num-
Der of outfit cars were sidetracked
at the place for the accommodation of
the workmen and their families. Some
of these cars, it is stated, were close
to where the explosion occurred. The
occupants, it is believed, were blown
to pieces. The telegraph operators
house was badly damaged and Opera
tor Taylor and his wife injured. The
nearest telegraph office from which
messages can be filed is at Lusin, Is
miles from the scene of the explo-
sion.
The accident was caused by wa
ter train running into the two cars
loaded with powder. Five locomotives
were reduced to scrap iron and the
big steam shovel at Jackson station
was completely demolished
AS soon as news of the explosion
reached Ogden a special with physi-
clans, nurses and stretchers was hur-
ried to the scene.
Late Friday night train arrived
from Jackson, bringing IL of the in
jured. Some of them are apparently
