 The friends of General KGropatlSin are confident that he will be given at least the temporary command of the two great Russian armies
 No news later than September 20 has beer received from Port Arthur. At that date the garrison had been inspir- ed by the repulse of the Japanese.

lRRIcATE is CRY OF WEST
Much Desert Land May Be Reclaimed
by Using System of Artif-
cial Watering.

1t is estimated that there remain in
the dry region of the west about 600,-
600 900 acres of vacant public land, and
that there is sufficient water available,
under proper storage systems, to irri-
gate about o~ne-sixteenth of the whole
amount. The area now occupied and
irrigated is only $500, 900 acres. If dur
Ing the next 80 years, only 10000, 900
acres more should be placed under irri-
cation. the land so reclaimed would pro-
vide homes for at least 100000 O to
Is, 900 900 people, as a very small area
Is sufficient to support a family where
the farm is operated according to irriga-
tion methods. The main drawback
which has so far appeared In the devel-
opment of the dry region is owing to the
presence of alkali in the soil in some
sections. 1t is found that after putting
water on the soil for a certain length
of time the tendency of the alkali is
to rise toward the surface, and there is
a gradual increase of the harmful salts
neal the surface. The waters used in
irrigation, it is also found, contain alkali
which helps to increase the deposits
after the water dries away. After the
alkali once begins to give serious trouble
it has sometimes been necessary to
abandon the land. The only remedy ap-
pears to be to furnish sufficient water
to flood the land and soak out the alkali.

Even the japanese, to whom the

A dispatch from the Russian army of

that they were Il gallant foe and also
that they were most correct in the OBJ

A Tokyo report says that according
to statements made by Russian prison
ers, General K%uropatkin was ordered
by Emperor Nicholas to make a stand
at Mukden and to assume the aggres-

relieve the Port Arthur garrison. This
order, the prisoners say, reached Muk-

reserve. When it became known that
the Russians had sunk three transports

CATS RELISH GREEN PEAS.
Feline Gourmets Regard the Vegetable
as Especially Dainty-Carrots
Benefit Health.

1t is generally supposed that cats are
carnivorous animals, yet from investi-
cations recently undertaken by a French
cat fancier it would appear that vege-
tarians are to be found ever among the
feline tribe. Green peas, cooked, are
among the vegetables most favored by
these four-footed gourmets, and aspara-
gus is regarded as an extraordinary
dainty, even the white, hard stalks,
usually rejected by the most fastidious
humans" being eagerly devoured.
Haricot beans and sorrel are not much
thought of, nor spinach, but cooked
chicory and lettuce are more to their
taste. Carrots are generally appre-
ciated and are said to be beneficial to
cat health. They are also excessively
fond Of maize. either green or ever the
hard grains when cooked. Fruit appar-
emily does not appeal to puss, apples,
pears, peaches and apricots failing to
rouse her appetite. On the other hand,
they show a decided taste for melons
and bananas, while some were found to
be absolutely greedy ove cocoanut in
any form, There is evidently likely
to be an opening in the future for a
cats vegetable man to compete with the
peripatetic cats meat man of the
present.
