Proposed shIp subsidIes.

Subventions of s5 per gross ton an
nually; subsidies for the carrying of
mails from Atlantic coast and Gulf OF
Mexico ports to South and Central
America and Cuba, and from Pacific
coast ports to Japan, China. the Phil
ippines, Mexico. Central America and
the Isthmus OF Panama; a tonnage tax
on foreign vessels entering United
States ports; the creation of a naval
volunteer service, and the encourage
ment of apprentices on ships in for
eign trade are provided for in a bin
agreed upon by the joint merchan,
and marine commission. which sub
mitted its report to Congress last
week
The commission, composed of five
senators and five representatives, was
created during the last session of Con-
gress in response to recommenda-
tion by President Roosevelt in his an
nual message December z, 1908. An
exhaustive investigation was made by
the commission of the conditions of
the American merchant marine and
American commerce. with view to
ascertaining the most feasible means
for their development. Hearings were
conducted during the year at nearly all
the important shipping and CONNER
cial centers of the United States.
The report deals at length with the
handicap upon American shipping ere
ated by the subsidies and bounties be-
slowed upon most of the merchant
fleets of foreign governments, which
is placed in the van of the lower first
cost of foreign ships and the lower
cost of maintenance OF these ships,
due. in both cases, primarily, to lower
wages.
A table is given showing that nearly
all of the foreign powers grant ship
ping subsidies. France pays more
than $S.000.000, and eight other for
elgn governments more than s1.000,000
each for the encouragement of their
merchant marine.
AS the first essential step in the re-
habilitation of merchant shipping the
commission proposes to create a force
of naval volunteers, composed of the
best officers and men of American
merchant ships and deep-sea fishing
vessels. Necessarily small at first,
means for a healthy and sure expan-
sion of the force is provided by the
payment of substantial retainers as an
inducement to enroll 1t is understood
that officers and men shall receive
their seamens pay. besides this re.
tainer. during their period of actual
instruction. The Navy Department
has asked for a reserve of 10000 men
in the bills it has presented to Con-
gress.
The report quotes the commissioner
of navigation to show that not more
than 10000 American citizens are in
cluded in the enrolment of employees
on all the American vessels on salt
water, which go out of sight of land
for. . hA rT,r1-
menting on this lack of material for a
naval volunteer force the commission
says:
"Out of these 10000 officers and men
probably not more than one-half would
be eligible for naval volunteer SER
vice. II Is therefore manifest
that shipowners must not only be en-
couraged to employ these naval vol
unteers, but encouraged to build more
ships to develop an increased naval
service, as well as to advance the in
terests of commerce"

FIERCE RAIDERS
BURN JAPANESE WAR STORES
ccssacks Make Hundrcd-Mile Dash
From Near Mukden and Har-
ass Encmy's Rear.

ST. Petersburg, Jan. 17.-Cossacks
have dashed from the war front near
Mukden. down the west bank of the
Lao river nearly 100 niles to New
Chwang. the great seaport Of Manchu-
ria. The Japanese garrison was
driven out and the immense war
stores at Yin Kow. a suburb. were
burned. After cutting the Japanese
railway. the line of communication TO
the front, the daring raiders withdrew
before a superior force and dashed
back to their base near Mukden. In
army circles this is looked upon as
one of the most daring raids in war
history.
A telegram from Siakhotan states
that General Mistchenkos raiding
force. learning that FIVE japanese bat
talions had appeared near Tashikiow,
returned northward and succeeded in
regaining the Russian lines. Their
losses were about 300 killed or
wounded, all the latter being brought
away
General Kuropatkin. in a dispatch to
Emperor Nicholas reporting the Rus
sian cavalry raids on January 10th and
11th says:
The Japanese suffered heavily. The
Russian losses during these two days
were three officers killed and ten
wounded and fifteen soldiers killed and
forty-nine wounded"
The general adds that the cavalry
captured quantity of stores and pris-
oners and says that the Japanese
stores at Yin Kow were ablaze for
nearly the whole night of January
18th.
The text of General Ku-opatkin's
dispatch follows:
During the evening of January 10th
one and a half companies of Japanese
infantry and half a squadron of jap
anese dragons were defeated with
great loss.
"On January 11th. a Japanese com
pany and two squadrons which were
occupying New Chwang. were driven
out by our Cossacks. who occupied the
place. and afterward pursued the COM
pany, defeating it and inficting heavy
loss. The same night our patrols dam
aged the railway line. telegraph
line. train and two locomo-
tiyes. During these two days
our cavalry defeated several
small detachments and captured one
officer. fourteen soldiers and 500 carts
with stores. Our casualties were three
officers killed and ten wounded, and
fifteen soldiers killed and forty-nine
wounded.
"On January 18th our patrol dam
aged the railway six miles from Yin
Kow. On January 18th. at 3 p. m, a
Russian detachment reached Yin Kow.
Our artillery cannonaded the station,
set fire to the stores and later stormed
the station. The japanese opened fire
with rifles and machine guns and our
men sought shelter in bitches and
again attacked until they reached the
railroad line, when a strong column OF
Japanese infantry appeared, advanc-
ing from Tashikiow. Onr forces, being
inferior. retired. carrying away nearly
all the killed and wounded. The
stores at Yin Kow were ablaze the
whole night

viii Rush ounnison Canal.

A L. Fellows, in charge of the Gun
nison irrigation project in Colorado.
states that he expects work to COM
mence on construction of cuts and the
tunnel without further delay. The sec
retary of the interior has approved the
bonds of the contractors and accepted
their contracts Several large air
compressors and other heavy machin-
cry will be purchased in Denver for
the tunnel work. The contractors have
plans ready to commence on excavat-
ing the cut leading to the tunnel and
will begin this work Immediately. The
open cut will be half mile long. The
tunnel will be 10000 feet in length
and carry 1900 cubic feet of water
per second. After emerging from the
tunnel the water will be conveyed by
100 miles of canals and laterals and
distributed upon 125.000 acres of land.
Mr.. Fellows will take up the proposed
project for irrigating G0,000 acres OF
land by diverting the waters of the
Grand river to the high line ditch,
north of Grand Junction. Preliminary
surveys have been made and the pro-
ject found feasible. If water users
association can be formed, so that all
of the water diverted will be used.
the reclamation service will proceed
with the project, the estimated cost
of which is s1,500.000.
The Elbert County tribune., 1905-01-19

The census bureau has issued a re
port on the condition of irrigation in
the United States in 1902. showing
that 3.415 systems. with 59,311 miles
of main canals and bitches. were irri-
eating 9.4s7.077 acres on 34,036
farms. The amount expended in con-
structing all these systems was $685.
800. ASP. The average construction cost
per acre in the arid region was SS9.14,
and average per irrigation system s2,-
40. The report says that the great
obstacle to the development of irriga-
ton in Texas and New Mexico is the
present treaty between Mexico and
this country. which prohibits the i'm
pounding of the waters of the Rio
Grande.
Testimony intended to prove that
the Mormon code of morals is of the

trary to be true was offered by counsel
for Senator Smott on the 18th inst. w
j. Mcconnell, formerly United
States senator from Idaho and twice
governor of his state. and Representa-
tive Burton l.. French, a member of
the present Congress and reelected
for another term, were the days wit

statements directed against the Nor
mon church and its. alleged interfer-
ence in political affairs. Former Gov
ernoT Mcconnell said that the Gentle
members of the Idaho Legislature
have not as high morals as the Nor
mon members and that If 1t were not
for questions of geography and know
ledge of legislative needs the inter
ests of the state would be better
served by an entire Mormon legisla.

THE KNIGHTS" TOUR
AMUSEMENT FOR THE LOVERS
OF CHESS.
Enormous Number Of Combinations
Possible In This Dlverting Exercise
"A Mental Recreation That Has
Few Equals.

What is termed the knights tour"
in chess, and which consists in NOV
ing the knight in such manner as to
cover every square on the chessboard
in sixty-four moves. counting the
starting point, is a much more inter.
esting problem than is generally sup
posed, and as a game or mental recre-
alton 1t has few equals.
II has been asserted that some Of
the chess masters have memOrized the
knights tour, SO as to be able to start
from any square on the board and fin
ish on any other square. but analysis
proves that this Is impossible. IL Is
possible, though, to start from any
black square on the board and finish
on any white square or TO start
from any white square and finish on
a, black square, and this would give
the enormous number of 1.024 distinct
combinations without including any
OF the variations, of which 1t can be
demonstrated that there are four or
more in every combination. Let any
one try to work out just one solu-
ton of the knights tour without re-
striction as to beginning or ending,
and he will have some appreciation of
the nature Of such a mental feat. II
may be mentioned here that the four
minor variations increase the total
16 times.
To form an idea of this, let us ex-
anime some of the diagrams which
show a regular pattern in the center.
These are formed by moving the
knight in the same relative direction
when entering and leaving each of
the four middle squares. Now. the
knight can move in eight different d.
rections from any of those squares,
and as there are twenty-elght com.

Summer Made Manure.

Summer made manure general
ly loses larger proportion
of It's manurial contents than
does the manure made at any
other time of year. This is for two
principal reasons. One OF these is
because the manure is dropped here
and there in the barnyard and is not
kept in a pile as is the manure made
In winter. The other reason is that
the air and sun are more effective in
dissipating the manurial elements In
summer than in winter The only
way TO in part check the operation Of
these forces is to keep the yard clean
ed up and the manure In a place
where 1t will be largely protected
from the sun and wind and. at fire.
Quent intervals apply 1t to the ground
that is being plowed or turned for
some purpose Applying manure as a
top dressing in midsummer is waste

Cool the Fruit.

Fruit should not be picked on a
warm day and put Immediately into
cold storage or into cars for shipment.
It should be put into some place where
1t will have a chance to cool off and
permit the latent heat to work out.
Putting fruit into close cars where
no refrigeration is provided is a fruit.
full source of trouble in the shipping
of fruit. The heat in the fruit causes
rapid spelling, especially with fruit
that Is of short keeping quality, like
some of the apples that ripen in the
summer. II the nights are cool, fruit
can be cooled off by simply leaving It
over night exposed to the air, but not
TO the dew. In other cases cellars are
found deep enough to have a tempera-
ture OF under 60 degrees These can
be used in such cases. In some parts
OF the territory over which this paper
circulates storage pits have been dug
into the side hills and these may be
used as storage places.
