Thousands of Recruits Being Drilled
at Tokyo.
Tokyo, Dec. 26.-Tokyo is again a
great military camp, and the scenes Of
last spring, when the first armies were
modified and dispatched, are being
duplicated. Thousands Of recruits and
reservists are Assem- bled, drilling and
equipping preparatory to taxing the
field. The permanent and temporary
barracks are filled and it is necessary
to billet the soldiers throughout the
city. Aoyama field is the center Of
activity, where infantry, cavalry and
artillery are constantly drilling. The
batteries fire blank charges for the pur-
pose Of breaking in the new horses.
The general military preparations are
enormous. 1t is planned to give Field
Marshal Oyama a rough total Of half
million men, with heavily increas-
ed artillery army, besides providing a
defense for Formosa and the Southern
islands in anticipation of the Russian
second Pacicfi squadron's attempt to
sieze a base. The port of Kelung in
Formosa has been declared in a state
of siege and other positions in Formosa
and the Pescadores are progressing.
Winter is not interfering with the Jap.
anese transport service. The railway
between Yentai and Dalny is working
we'll and the running time between
Tokyo and Liaoyang is six days.

PEACE CONFERENCE.
Secretary Hay Makes Some Further
Suggestions.

Washington, Dec. 26.-That the
further interchange Of views prepara-
tory to the formulation Of a program
for another peace conference ut the
Hague should be effected through the
international bureau under the control
of the permanent administrative coun-
Gil of The Hague is the suggestion
offered by Secretary Hay in second
note to the powers and just made pub
lie at thhe state department.
The note was despatched a week
ago, but its publication was withheld
until it had reached the various Amer
lean EN- bassies and leagtions abroad.
The secretary summarizes the replies
of all the powers to his note of October
81 and expresses qualification of the
president at the cordial reception of
his invitation.
Having taken the initial step, how
ever, the secretary says the president
feels that he has gone as far as he ap-
propriately can and that with the gen
eral acceptance of his invitation in
principle "the future conduct of the
affairs may fifty follow its normal
channels"
Regarding the conditional accept
ance Of Russia, Secretary Hay says
that while the postponement which
this reply necessitates is to be regret
ted. this government recognizes the
weight of the motive which induced it

JANUARY DIVIDENDS.
Tota! of $I36,OOO,OOO to Be Paid BY
American Corporations.

New York, Dec. 26.-Dividend and
interest disbursements to be made in
January will break all records, accord
ing to statistics collected by the Jour-
nal of Commerce The compilation
indicates a total of about $136, O0O, 900,
to be paid out by leading railroad and
industrial corporations, traction com.
This is nearly -, 100000 larger than
in January year ago, when total pay
ments of similar institutions were
about $l3S, 500, 900. The industrial
payments snow considerable falling
off because of reduction and passing
of dividends, but this is more than off
set by increased payments on the part
of the railroads and local traction
companies.

Late Calves.
Owing to the increasing demands of
the great centers of population. farm
ers have to enter into contracts to sup
ply quantities Of milk all the year
round, and in consequence are COM
PEELED to have fresh calving cows COM
ing into profit not at one period mere
ly. The most difficult period to cope
with is the end Of the autumn and just
before winter. Farmers who hold such
contracts find it pays to time one-third
or more of their cows to calve at that
period. Those who do not 90 in for

Of the autumn calves as soon as pos
sible. If reared on milk substitutes
will have to be employed, as the entire
milk Of the COW would have to be sent
away daily, but milk substitutes have
now been brought to a high degree of
perfection. These will be thickened
with meals as the animals get little
older. They will soon take to root
pulp. Calves thus reared would be in
prime condition after March, to thrive
well on the green folders Of spring,
rye. lucerne and winter oats, intermiX-
ed with vetches and trifolium.

PoultrY PickinUs.


The mongrel Is thing of the past In
profitable poultry culture.
Chickens should never be allowed to
20 on the roosts until ten or twelve
weeks old.
An overfed hen Is stupid. lazy and
Improbable. The eager. active. hun
CRY hen is the profit maker.
Fowls must have variety of food
relished by the fowls if made an ex.
elusive diet.
In breeding high-class fowls it is
quality, not quantity. that counts. A
combination Of both is desirable. but
not always obtainable.
A little linseed meal in the mash
occasionally will tend to add luster to
the plumage and promote digestion,
but it must be fed sparingly.
Every poultryman should be stu
dent. He should by careful study and
close observation equip himself to mas.
ter the emergencies that are certain to
arise sooner or later
The early-laying pullct should be
marked and kept for the breeding pen
next season. provided sne is otherwise
a good bird. In nearly all cases the
pullet that begins to lay early in life
is the one that will lay the largest
number of eggs in year.
Any man or woman of ordinary In
telligence, with the proper application
Of industry and perseverance, can
make a success of the poultry business.

cations that are essential to success

Use for Surplus Potatoes.

Use for Surplus Potatoes.
The abundance of potatoes in this
country the present year suggests the
possibility that new uses will need to
be found for the crop within few
years. In Germany the manufacture
Of alcohol from potatoes is one Of the
mainstays of agriculture. Before the
industry was started potatoes were a
drug on the market. Now there is a
regular market for the whole of the
produce, and the Importance of the
potato crop has vastly increased. The
alcohol Is treated in such n way that
it is unfit for drinking purposes and SO
not liable to special tax. 1t is used
for heating. lighting and motive power,
varnishes, etc, and last year two mill
ion tons OF potatoes were used in this

Root Crops for Pigs.

1t has been demonstrated that seven
or eight pounds of mangels have as
great feeding value as one pound Of
grain. when given to pigs or hogs, and
that sugar beets have even greater
value. so it is hard to understand why
pig raisers are so careless about grow
ing root crops for lneir animals. Not
only have the root crops high feed
ing value. but they do more for the
good health of the hogs than one can
estimate. In regard to their feeding
value it has been demonstrated time
and again that when mangel or sugar

How Hay Is Wasted.

Many pretty good farmers lose
money every year by allowing the rain
to wash out the substance of their nay
crops. Most of the valuable parts of
hay are easily washed out by rain.
This is made clear by taking wisp of
hay. placing it in q bucket and pouring
boiling water over it. The result is
n brown fluid which has received the
name of hay tea. Cold water will ex-
little more time is allowed. This.
then, is what takes place when half
made hay is allowed to lie abroad over
the surface and is not made into cocks.
No water draws tea so we'll as soft
water. and rain water is soft, and 1t
draws the hay just on the same princi-
pie as it would draw tea. When the
air is fairly dry the material tedded
In early morning should be tedded
again in the afternoon. On the second
day an endeayor should be made to
get the hay in such form that on the
appearance of rain it may rapidly be
run up into large cocks. in which 1t is
safe. Assuming that the work Is car
ried on as far as possible by machin-
cry. the first operation is to horserake
the hay into rows, and the teddcr
should be set to work along the rows
so as to throw them out into beds
about four yards wide. From time to
time the tedder should be made to re-
peat the operation, until the approach
OF evening. when the beds may be
drawn into rows and then collected
into large cocks.
