Farm Policy.

Employees of the state dairy and
food department report that there is an
increased interest in the dairy industry
which suffered last summer from the
rust. .-...-.
1t takes a hard blow at the pocket
book, such as crop failure, to show
some people the advantages of
diversified farming. Every poor
wheat year has been followed by
greater attention to other crops in the
localities where the failure was most
felt. These experiences have taught
the farmers that wheat land will do
splendidly for other things besides
wheat, and that some Of the other
crops bring more reliable returns
Wheat is sort of gentleman farm.
er's crop. It means hard work for a
short season of the year and leisure the
rest of the time. The wheat farmer
works under high pressure and makes
good money, as rule, during few
weeks Of the summer, and the rest
Of the year he is taking thing easy
and spending the money brought in by
the wheat. The farmer who depends
on wheat alone is an extreme develop
ment from the old-style farmer who
bought little and sold little, living by
patient industry from the soil.
There is happy medium, to which
the successful farmers are generally
turning Large landowners are turn

and paying some attention to. cattle
The smaller ones are taking up dairy
farming. When run in connection
with an up-to-date creamery, the car,

attention every day in the year. I

His signing Of the arbitration treaty
with our government this week is en-
couraging, and there is little doubt that
he is sorry that he ever let the wal
party drag him into the costly war in
the east. The outside world of peace
promoters hopes that he may extricate
himself from his difficulties and stand
up squarely to the duty of meeting the
zemstvo movement at least half way
if he has not the courage to actualize
the constitution which the ill-starre6
Alexander II. intended to give his
people.

The Next Worlds Fair.

At midnight the curtain will ring
down on another great worlds fair, the
greatest in many ways of the long line.
Tomorrow the work of the wrecker will
begin. To the people of st. Louis, who
have taken such pride in the magnifii:-
cence of the ephemeral city in Forest
park, the days of demolition will be
melancholy days. 1t will bring a pang,
indeed, to the heart of every one who
has viewed the great spectacle this
summer, to think that the great works
of art and architecture will be nothing
but heaps of broken staff and lumber
in few days more. -.
st. Louis has scored most signally
with it's undertaking. It closes with
clean sheet. The government loan
has been paid in full, and faith has
been kept by consistent refusal to
throw open the gates on Sunday. The
record for the seven months will show
nearly 100000 admissions, and few
of that great number have been disap-
pointed. This record, as expected,
falls behind that Of Chicago, which had
81 ,529,4OO admissions in six months.

Russia and the Peace Conference

Our state department yesterday re-
ceived, thru Count Cassini, the Russian
ambassador, the reply of his govern
ment to the invitation sent to the pow
crs who signed the international agree
ment reached by the peace conference
at The Hague in 1899, to participate
in second conference. The car very
politely avows his recognition of the
worthy character and object of sec
ond conference, but declines, because
he does not consider the time oppor-
tune for such conference, and would
prefer to wait until the present fierce
war is ended. Count Cassini was in
structed by his government to say that
Russia gladly associated herself with
our government in the "effort to COM
plete the mission of the first great as
sembly convened under the leadership
of the Russian EMPEROR The invita-
tions have met with favorable responses
