formations after his satanic majesty.
It is scarcely an exaggeration to say
that hardly county In the British
Isles is without some place or thing
with the designation Devil. All Of
which prompts the thought that his

considerable amount Of property on
this terrestrial globe. The Devils

FALSE TESTS ARE MADE;
SMALL FARMERS CHEATED

state and every car Of wheat should
be inspected by state inspector be-
fore 1t was started to market. This
would give the farmer fair deal.
Local oil inspectors are appointed for
every point where oil is handled, and
the same system should be applied to
the grain inspection department. AS
1t is now, farmer who sells his
wheat to a local dealer must take that
dealers weights and tests. The deal
err ships the grain to market and gets
the weights and tests from the state
inspection department. The farmer
does also where he ships direct to
market himself. He should have just
as good protection If he sells at home
as II he ships to market and local in
spection is his only salvation"
There is no telling how generally
the scheme is being worked. Several
complaints have been made from diff
ferent parts of the state. No single
dealer has monopoly on the scheme.
Many of them are In 1t. OF course
a majority Of the dealers are honest,
but enough are crooked to make life a
burden to the farmers. They don't
know which to trust.
1.-THE legislature last winter passed
law requiring grain men to give
shippers full weight on grain ship
ments." said Judge West. "In the
past dealers at the big markets had
been in the habit Of deducting 100
pounds from every car. 1t was esti-
mated that this meant loss Of
$4,000 a year to the people of Kan
sas, so the bill was passed prohibiting
that practice. But that law only .ap-
plies to weights. II doesn't apply to
tests. For instance, farmer might
haul 10000 pounds Of wheat to local
dealer in town where there Is no
state inspection. That wheat prob
ably would test GO pounds to the
bushel and be worth 65 cents bushel.
But the local dealer would put test
of Sc pounds to the bushel on it and
only give the farmer say 60 cents a
bushel or 5 cents less than the wheat
vas really worth. That is the thing
that must be remedied by direct and.
special legislation"

THINK TERMS ARE SEVERE.
How the Portsmouth News Is Received
at Rome.

Rome, Aug. 14.-Much surprise was
felt here today at the Japanese peace
terms becoming known, and high COM
pliments were paid to the Associated
Press for its exclusive dispatches on
the subject. The opinion is express
ed in Rome that the terms are very
severe on Russia, but II the Japanese
are sufficiently firm Russia will end by
accepting, as there Is nothing in
them, IT is thought, derogatory to Rus
sian pride, although both reimburse
ment and territory are demanded.
The view in military circles is that
Russia intends to do the best possible
for herself, but will accept in the end.
The main Japanese terms are less ex-
orbitant than expected here and the
hope Is expressed that an agreement
will be reached

Controlling Interest in Korea-chlna
to Have Railroad West.

Portsmouth, Aug. 49, - Although
very rapid progress was made with
the peace negotiations, three Of the
twelve articles which constitute the
Japanese conditions of peace having
been agreed to by Mr. WHITE and
Baron Rosen on behalf of Russia,
neither of the two articles to which
Mr.. White in his reply returned an alb
solute negative was reached. The
crisis. therefore, is still to come. The
cession Of Sakhalin comes fifth in the
list. The three "articles.' as they are
officially designated in the brief COM
munications authorized to be given to
the press which were disposed Of. are
In substance as follows.
First-Russia's recognition Of jap
ans "preponderating influence" and
special position in Korea which
Russia henceforth agrees is outside
her sphere Of influence.
Second-Mutual obligation to evacu-
ate Manchuria, each to surrender all
special privileges In that province,
mutual obligation to respect the terri
torial integrity Of China and to main
tain the principle Of equal opportun-
ity topen door,.
Third-The cession' to China Of the
Chinese Eastern railroad from Har-
bin southwark. There was never any
question about the acceptance by Mr..
White of these articles, the first two
covering in more emphatic form the
contention of Japan in the diplomatic
struggle which preceded the hostili-
ties.
The ordinary course of proceedings
the first great stumbling block to a
treaty Of peace-should be reached, as
after Port Arthur and the leases of
Lao Tung, which are included in ar
ticle v, and in which Mr.. Witte is un-
doubtedly prepared with slight modi-
fication to accept, comes article VI
the cession of Sakhalin.
But 1t is by means certain that when
this obstacle is reached it will not be
postponed until all the articles upon
which agreement is possible are dis
posed of.
1t is significant that M. Sato, while
specifically stating that he did not
speak officially, gave 1t as his opinion
that each power had now bound it.

Here Is one sample" said Assist

Here is a letter from an old farmer
in Allen county. He sold his grain
at the machine, but had to deliver 1t
on board the car. The dealer tested
1t at fifty-six pounds to the bushel.
The farmer thought he was being
swindled, and had the wheat tested
himself. 1t tested sixty pounds to the
bushel. Still the grain dealer said he
was buying on his own tests, not on
those of somebody else, and he paid
the farmer for fifty-six-pound wheat,
which was from 5 to 7 cents less per
bushel than the farmer was entitled to
for his sixty-pound wheat. Now the
old farmer wants to know what he
can do. have investigated the
