dcers of the Russian cruiser Sevastopol,
captured at the fall of Port Arthur.
they were released by the Japanese af-

Lieut.. Below characterized Gen.

know Stoessel as he is" said below.
HE is a coward. Stoessel was bur-
rowed a great deal of the time in a

killed, took command of a battery Of

GOING HOME TO RUSSIA
Paroled Russian Naval Officers Ar
rive at San Francisco.
one, Lieut.. Below, Declares
Him "a Coward.

San Francisco Feb. 21.-Three pa
rolled Russian naval captains and II
lieutenants arrived here, Sunday, from
Port Arthur, en- route to Russia, on
the steamship Siberia.
The party consisted of Capt. N. O..
Won Essen. commander of the battle
ship Sevastopol; Capt. e. Shensiot-
witch, commander of the battleship
Retvizan; Capt. N. A. SAKE, comman-
der of the naval transport Yermak;

witch, X. Krotkoff, F. Ostelzki, A.
Rigey, s. Tirtoff, +. Wesselken, X.
Dennissoff and S. Kovalevski.
The naval officers had no criticism
of Gen. Stoessel or the conduct of the
defense of Port Arthur beyond the
fact that the Russian feet was under
manned, and had not sufficient supply
of ammunition when the war began.
Port Arthur, they said, would have
fallen the latter part of August had
1t not been for the strengthening Of
the land forces with guns and men
from the fleet.
Gen. Stoessel," said Capt. Won Es-
sen, lis brave soldier, great gen.
eral and a true patriot. He held to
the last minute. He had plenty of am
munition, certainly, but never heard
Of any army which could live on am
munition. Lack of food was the main
reason for the surrender. There were
not more than 10000 able-bodied SOL
diers in the garrison when it was sur
rendered"
According to the statement of the
officers, but little food was carried
through the blockade by junks.
The Russian officers will leave for
New York in a few days, from which
place they will report to the Russian
ambassador at Washington.
They speak of the good treatment
accorded them by the Japanese. None
would express any opinion of the Rus
sian domestic conditions, but they
were hopeful that the war would have
successful ending.

Give Your Stomach a Rest.

Your food must be properly digest
ed and asslmilated to be of any value
to you. If your stomach is weak or
diseased take Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure. 1t digests what you eat and
gives the stomach a rest, enabling
1t to recuperate, take on new life
and grow strong again. Kodol cures
sour stomach, gas, bloating, heart
palpitatIon and all digestive disor-
ders. l.. A. Soper, of Little Rock,
KY, writes us: 1--WE feel that Ko-
dol Dyspepsia Cure deserves all the
that can be given it.,
as IL saved the life of our little girl
when she was three years old. She
is now six and we have kept 1t for
her constantly, but or course she
only takes 1t now when anything
disa5rees with her."

0 News for the Farmer o

grooming gently at first for the COW
that has never been groomed will be
considerably astonished at the pro-
cess. Use rather soft brush at first
and spend only few minutes each
morning on each COW for week ex-
tending the time as they get used to
the operation. Later a sitter brush
or even the curry comb may be used
and the cows will enjoy the opera
ton. Do the work thoroughly as
would be done with the horses and
you will have better cows in more
ways than one.

Useful Information.

A north slope may be bad for to-
Dnatoes, but 1t is not bad location
cor fruit trees.
You should cut out blighte in
psar trees, and be sure to cut below
the deceased wood.
Fruit trees should not be planted
100 close together, for If they are,
you will lose In quantity and quail
~ of the fruit.
Potatoes to be used for seed in the
spring ought to be selected the
previous fall. Only sized
tnbers should be used. The prac-
tice of selecting small potatoes of
unmarketable size for seed is con-
vary principles of plant breeding.
Growers should select seed which is
typical of the potatoes they wish to
produce. Neither the largesr or the
smallest are best, but those of uni
form size.
Seed potatoes should be kept in
q cool cellar In the winter where
sney will be subject neither to frost
ror heat.
In the western section of Kentuc-
Ky peanut raising has been found to
be decidedly profitable. The nuts
are said to be better than any In the
county, of finer quality, and the
Quantity larger per acre than those
raised in Virginia and Tennessee,
sae biggest peanuts raised In the
Union. Peanuts raised on h g
Exail place IN McCracken county
this year yielded sl75 per acre, and
the hay is worth $40 per acre. About
so acres of COOLERS were raised in
McCracken, Graves and Ballard and
counties the past year.
There is a great deal of profit to
the farmer In raising strawberries,
sad besides they will furnish money
10 help cultivate the larger crops, or
give you something to go on while
yeu are making your heavy crops.
Pine farmers around Bowling Green
pat out fifty acres of strawberries
last year and they were so we'll
pleased with the results that they
have ordered enough plants to put
cat l25 acres more. That being
xorth of here, If the farmers there
san have such good results raising
strawberries, why can't Hopkins
county do likewise? We suggest
shat the farmers of the north end Of
the county give this crop trial.
Another reason why the strawber-
ny crop ought to be profitable to our
farmers Is that they would ,me In
! and be ready for market just about
the time the Tennessee strawberry
crop would be over. II Illinois,
Tennessee and other states aroand
as can raise strawberries, why can't
we?

Dear Sirs:-
/ was talking toyou yesterday

er date for you, but 1t Is absolutely

pie of your town will know us well

it alright under the circumstances
and while the other show is baud
show at the same time 1t Is altogeth-
er a different class show and do not
believe that will effect the business

1 feel sure that we will be able to
do a nice business also from the fact
that the Faust show will leave your
patrons in good humor for Min
strels, as I have heard nothing but
good reports from them pleasing the

Feeding Bees in Winter.

The proper time to feed for winter
is before winter has set In. If, how
ever, from some unavoidable cause
you have bees IN starving condi-
ton, feed with no regard to the tenn
perature. Frames filled with honey
are the thing to give colonies lack
ing In stores at q time when the
snow is flying. 1t is not bad plan
to warm these up somewhat before
giving them to the bees. If frames
of honey cannot be given, candy
made from pure, white sugar will
answer first-rate, says Farm and
Home. Break this up in chunks
and lay on top of the frames. OAR

The Right Kind Of Farmer.

There is a farmer over in Missouri
who is q mighty staunch friend of
the local paper. At recent farm
ers' institute he read paper in the
course of which he took occasion to
remark: "As ruIe the farmer
knows no firmer friend than the
country press. The home paper is
distinctly the farmers own paper,
supported directly or indirectly by
the farmers, who compose the back
bone Of the printers subscription
list and largely for what the enter
prising merchant advertises. Now,
brothers, let us not forget our
friends. Let us see that our sub
scriptions are paid before the first
of January and year in advance il
we can afford it. The man or the
paper that fights my battles shall
have my support. Another, the
merchants who advertise are the
ones who make 1t possible for us to
get a good local paper, and the men
or firms who are too penurious to
advertise and help support the local
press have no right to the farmers
patronage"
