M.kas Sassy statement.

.'Throuphout the war the Japanese have made all the efforts in their power to win the press on their side. For instance, inc papers of the last few days have contained an interview with MT. Sato, In which he says that Russia must pay war indemnity because she is at the end or her resources and that the Russian rep resentatives although making wry faees' will have to pay even if the word indem- nifty is not used.
 It is not possible to suppose that MT. Sato wilfullv misstates facts and the most charitable view is that he is badly in- formed. He probably does not know that Russia, in all her history, never paid war indemnity. She did not even pay an indemnity to Napoleon the Great when in 1872 with his army he invaded Russia and entered Moscow. Therefore 1t Is dir- ficult to suppose that Russia will pay an indemnity to the Japanese when the chief of the army. Marshall Oyama, who not withstanding the respect due him, is not Napoleon the Great Up to the present, after a year and half, not only has not entered Moscow, but has not even reach- ed the real Russian frontier. Indeed In the last few months he has remained near Gunshu Pass, more than $50 miles from that frontier, not daring to attack Gen eral Llnevitch. MT. Sato in his ignorance probably does not know that two years after the entrance of Napoleon into Mos COW the Russian army in 1874 entered Paris and dethroned the great warrior.
 The Russian representative added that he did not say this to minimize the mli- tary success obtained by the Japanese, but because in his opinion it is not clever to magnify these successes and try to make mountain out of mole hill.

Russia Gets Long Dispatches.

St. Petersburg, August 11.-(3 a. m.)- Russia is probably now in possession of Japan's terms for ending the war. Long cipher dispatches were received late at night by the foreign office, and the Rus sian government is awaiting the morrow before deiberating on and discussing the Japanese Emperors terms. The cipher telegrams arrived at the foreign office after the departure ct the transating sec retaries. Count Lamsdorff minister of for eign affairs, is spending the night at his country villa on Yelagin island, and the three foreign office secretaries who drop ped into the ministry after dinner depart ed before 9:30 in the evening. At midnight d solitay light appeared In the windows of the foreign office, where a confidential attachee kept guard over incoming dis patches.
 Special dispatches of Russian cores pondents at Portsmouth give not the slightest intimation as to the contents of the Japanese communication or it's effect on the members of the Russian mission. The chief point on which they dwell is the exclusion of Professor Martens from the conference.
 The rlenipotentiaries' dispatches detail the inssance of the Japenese on this poirt, with considerable ascerbity.

 Secretary Taft in his address said:
 Tt is a great pleasure to respond to the toast, which His Grace, the arch bishop, has done me the honor to pro- pose. The changes effected by the Spanish war, bringing the United States for time into Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines brought about more necessary associa- ton between the government of the Unit ed States and the church of Rome than has ever heretofore existed. It was not that the constitution of the United States was changed thereby; it was not that un- der the constitution any particular re- ligion or church was to be recognized but it was that in taking over from Spain the responsibility of government in these new dependencies what was formerly a single tie under the Spanish regime, the government and the church and the church ties have now been separated into two

 That he wishes as President of the United States to act toward the Roman Catholic church as he would have a President, Catholic. act toward the protestant churches

Visit to Rome Itself.

Under the just auspices of the United States government in bringing about that change, 1t became necessary that an as- sociation should be established which un- der the circumstances prevailing in the United States proper, had never before been necessary.

1t is intended for people who are
able to sit up, and so it is made only
big enough to give room for seat for
the invalid, with space besides for the

How Minister Saved Situation.

The Bishop of LANDAU at Newport
mislaid his robes and had TO preach
without them. and elsewhere a clergy
man forgot that he had undertaken to
conduct the service. which was con
sequently dispensed with.
But in neither case did the people
suffer from clerical remissness, like
a Scottish congregation mentioned in
his "reminiscences by Sir Archibald
Geikie. who tells how the minister
neglected to bring the manuscript OF
his sermon and had to make time to
go home, a mile off. and fetch it. AL.
most distracted, he gave out the 10th
Psalm, and directly the congregation
began to sing the first of the 176
verses he rushed away to the manse
from which he by and by returned
to the church breathless. finding the
clerk waiting uneasily.
How are you getting on?" he gasp
ed. "Oh. SIR" said the clerk. they've
got to the end of the eighty fourth
verse. an they're cheepin' like wee
mice," The pious congregation was
exhausted. but the situation was
saved.-Modern Society.

Alfalfa Food Product.

Five hundred tons of Colorado irri-
gated alfalfa hay are wanted at Elgin,
Illinois. and Prof. w. II. Olin. in
structor in agronomy at the State Ag-
ricultural School. is trying to secure
it for the firm making the request. His
interest in the matter is that he wants
to open a new market for a Colorado
product Friday he bought five cars
at Holly and is looking for more.
The firm that wants the hay pre-
pares food stuff, and is making a
huge success. 1t started two years ago
with 5OO-ton plant and is now
doubling the capacity. II takes the al
falfa, kiln dries it and cuts it up. Then
it is mixed with other foods to produce
various results. For dairies it is
mixed with sugar beet pulp; for poul-
try it is mixed with certain grains and
for stock it has certain mixtures.
This firm has been buying alfalfa in
Texas, Kansas and other states, but
Professor Olin induced it to sample
the Colorado irrigated growth and it
has found it to be better than anything
else. The big order will demonstrate
completely whether the Colorado pro-
duct is the best and will settle the
question of the market. The irrigated
alfalfa is not lcached like that grown
by other processes. AS the hay runs
nine to ten tons per car. this or
der means at least two trainloads and
perhaps more.-Denver Republican.

DENVER MARKETS

Denver Union Stock Yards.-Trade
passed was very uneven. There was
n fair supply of cattle on hand. re-
ceipts being about $4,000 head, or half
as many as came the week before.
The market was very much on the dull
order during the first few days and
prices were lower on everything. Late
trading, however, had a much better
tone and the loss of the fore part of
the week was all regained and good
cattle closed strong to little higher
than week ago. Beef steers were in
light supply all week. The demand
was fair, but by no means heavy, as
packers were pretty well supplied and
the demand from the trade was not
large. One steer sold at $500, with
others at $425, and bulk of the bust
ness around $3.50 to $3.50. Cows were
in very good supply and fair demand,
but prices were lower early in the
week on account of the general decline.
Later all of the loss was regained and
prices closed a little higher. Best
cows sold at $40 and prices ranged
down to $3.50 for Gamers, with bulk OF
the fair to good at $2.35 to $500. Bulls
were about steady and veals also un-
changed. Feeder and stocker trade
was dull early in the week, but there
was a very good demand towards the
close and prices were strong to
higher. Bulk of the weeks business
was done around $3.25 to $3.75, with
choice dehorned heavy steers up TO
$500, freight. paid.
Hog supply was liberal, but they
were all sold readily and more could
have been used. Prices advanced
about 10 cents during the week, tops
now selling around s5.021a to $5.O5.
The sheep supply was not heavy,
but bulk of those received were sold
here. Prices were very satisfactory,
but little lower than the preceding
week on account of the decline east.
There IS a very good demand here for

THE FARM AND RANGE

There is an interesting class at the
Colorado Agricultural College this win.
ter. 1t Is known as the short course
in domestic science and agriculture,
and 1t is proving success. There are
hundreds of boys and girls on the
farms of Colorado. who can not be
spared away from home except for a
short time in the winter months, and
this course is made up OF three months
terms in November, December and
January. 1t lasts two years and at the
end of it the student has received a
training which should open a way for
him to realize that the every day
things in farm life may be studied sci
entifically. The boys are taught ami
NAL husbandry, agronomy, horticul-
ture, veterinary science. bookkeeping,
etc. The girls take up hygiene and
physiology, sewing, cooking, home
nursing, dairying, laundrying, garden
ing etc.
Bulletin No. 1O4 of the Colorado Ag-
ricultural Experiment Station is
entitled "A Rust Resisting Canta.
loupe." The conclusion arrived at is
the necessity of selecting seed from
rust resisting plants. 1t says: THE
netting of canteloupe has long been
considered an attractive fancy feature,
and without question it is the essence
of its appearance on the market, and
experience reveals that ii has value
in protecting the keeping qualities of
the melons on long shipments. The
words Rocky Ford" scratched on the
surface of green melon appeared in
the netting at maturity, thus showing
that the netting of cantaloupe ia
merely tracery of callous formed by
the natural cracking OF the surface of
the melon. BY observation and tests
it is shown that a close netted melon
does not lose weight by evaporation as
rapidly as one less covered with net
ting. thus its keeping and shipping
qualities are largely determined by the
amount of netting on its surface"
