Manila, June 9.-From the stories
I)ld by the Russians who escaped from
Ihe sea fight In the Korean straits 1t
ppears that the Japanese completely
surprised the Russian feet. The Rus
iians were steaming peacefully along.
There was no sign of the Japanese
ieet and the Russian ships were not
cleared for action nor were the bat
teries manned. The attack came with
suddenness that made the unpre-
paredness of the Russians for battle
glaring mistake that never could be
corrected.

The question is often asked how
one treatment can be goad for every
thing. Is not pure air and pure water
beneficial to the system? If so, will
it not benefit every organ of the sys-
tenn to purify the blood, and elimi-
nate the large amount of poison that
collects in the systema Is not regulat-
ing the bowels beneficial to the entire
system, and absolutely necessary to
the proper condition of health? If so,
why should it not be just as necessary
to open up the seven million pores in
the skin, which is the sewerage of the
entire system, letting off the deadly
poison which thousands of people are
carrying about in their bodies perfect
ignorant of their condition. You can
easily see this process of renovation
can not help but benefit every part OF
the human machinery.

SOMETHING ABOUT blizzard CUT

With an ensilage cutter and a silo,
green feed can be cut and stored when
it costs almost next to nothing, and fed
when feed is dear. 1t is safe to say
that there are but few up to date dairy
men and farmers who do not know the
value of the enSilage cutter and appre-
ciate the saving effected by it's use. Like
everything else, there are good ens1lage
cutters and poor ones, but the saving
effected by q good cutter in single
season is so great that only those who
are not familiar with the facts, care to
purchase anything but Blizzard. The
entire outside of the case of the Biz
card can be removed, which makes re-
pairing, should it ever become necessary,
a very simple matter. This also per-
to any angle on it's circumference, while
the turn buckles can be screwed up tight,
making the machine as rigid as II cast
in one piece. This is a feature found
in no other ensilage cutter
1t will elevate green enS1lage 5O rect
and dry material 80 feet into $40. has las
feed rolls that yield to accommodate the
amount of matter passing through them,
they can be stopped, started or reversed
instantly, the knives can be adjusted
to or from the cutter plate while the
machine is in motion. It cuts or shreds
and can be used with two or four knives
and two or four shredder bars or both
together.
'Blizzard" is name familiar to every
farmer and dairyman wherever s1los are
used for the excellent cutting and blow
ing qualities Of the machine, and the
fact that it is handled by firm with the
reputation for handling nothing but the
Stayer Co., with houses in the principal
jobbing centers, Portland, Seattle, Spo-
kane and Boise, assures the prospective
purchaser perfect satisfaction.

to break the peas until they are tender.

"The Freshest Somebody"

A good story is going the rounds
of Washington City about the presi-
dents recent trip to Virginia. 1t seems
that as the president got off the train
he noticed an old lady trying to get
on. He sprang forward and assisted
her, then grasped her hand and gave
her the regulation executive hand
shake" The old lady glared at him,
then said: young man, I don't know
who you are and l don't want to- But
you are certainly the freshest some
body l have seen in these parts for
many long day." The president only
raised his hat and said nothing, but
when he returned to Washington he
considered that it was too good to keep
and so told it on himself and within
twenty-four hours it was the latest
story in all the clubs in Washington.

Keeping Cider Sweet.

Sweet cider so preserved that it has
exactly the same flavor and sweetness
that it had the day it was made last

tural college, at Corvallis. Samples re-
Gently tested demonstrate the plan to
be entirely successful, and render it
certain that an industry in cider bot
Ting is likely to be the consequence.
The method of treatment of the cider
is to destroy the ferment germ by a
temperature so low that it will not
cook the apple fiber that may be in
solution and also not destroy the nat
ural flavor. For the purpose a temper
allure of 100 degrees, secured by steam
process, is applied. This is sufficient
to destroy the vegetable cell, but not
enough to kill the spores. According
ly, twenty-four hours later, when the
spores have developed into cells, the
same heat is then applied. Twenty.
four hours later, as a precautiOn, a
third application of heat is made Then
the cider is corked up in bottles tightly
enough to prevent the air from coming
in contact and the bottles are laid
away. Such bottles opened recently
contained cider as sweet and whole
some as ever came from a press. The
feature of the process is that by rea-
son of the simple method of the treat
,ment, anybody can preserve the bev
,erage for future use at very trif1ing
expense.

The owner of a farm should know
how first and then be boss, not offens-
lively but quietly and surely. 1t Is
absurd to hire man who may know
little about the best ways of doing
things perhaps and let him do as he
pleases and take his own time for it.
No business but farming could stand
such lack of management. How few
hands know about the advantages OF
thorough blowing and much stirring OF
the soil, when properly dry and check
ing evaporation so the crop can have
the water without injuring roots,

Early to work and late to quit is
not always true economy. The agri-
culturist needs as many hours for rest
and sleep as does anyone else, says
the Live Stock and Dairy Journal. He
should also allow himself as much
leisure for reading and writing as any
other business man. If you will sys-
tematize your work, follow regular

are saving time and doing more work,
but that it is real pleasure. In your
program give space for reading pub
locations relating to the industry you
are engaged in. 1t will pay you.
