Japan's Probable Terms.

Vienna, June 16.-Certain intima-
tions have been received here that Ja-
pans terms are substantially as fol-
lows:
Ffrst-The recognition of the Japan.
ese protectorate over Korea.
Second-The return of.Manchuria to
China.
Third-International control Of the
Eastern Chinese railroad.
Notwithstanding Port Arthur, the
strategical value of this fortress has
been overestimated and 1t Is said that
its ultimate disposal will not give rise
to any controversy.
Fifth-It is not thought that Japan
will demand the demolition of the for
ttfications at Vladivostok.
Sixth-The surrender of the island
Of Sakhalin will not be demanded by
Japan, principally because Japan has
not yet carried the war into Russian
territory.
Seventh-An understanding regard.
ing an indemnity is not impossible be-
cause It is declared Japan will content
herself with demanding the cost of the
war.

Jareeki Was Murdered.

Denver, June 16.-A jury in the Fed
eral Court Wednesday decided that
Seymour 7. Jarecki probably had been
killed by some foe, and that enough
proof had not been adduced to support
the theory of suicide.
The verdict was in the case Of
Theresa Jarecki versus the Conserva-
tive Life Insurance Company, in which
the widow of the deceased doctor sued
to recover the amount OF life policy,
together with interest since the doc,
tors death. Payment was resisted on
the ground that the doctor had taken
his own life. and that the provisions Of
the policy had therefore been vio-
lated.
The widow brought in proof of her
husbands death. of the attempt on his
life when he was county physician,
and the suspicious circumtances sur
rounding his death. Among these were
the bullet hole, that had been shot
through the screen door of his resi-
dence from the outside. and the condi.
ton Of the gates in the back yard,
which were left open, as though some
one had hurriedly escaped in that di-
rection.
The defense urged that Jarecki was
in financial trouble and had threatened
to take his own life. The jury brought
In q verdict for the plaintiff for $5,20S.
which vas the full amount Of the In.
sursEee. with interest added.

Colorado. cusar investments.

Some interesting statistics have
been compiled In regard to the growing
sugar beet industry Of Colorado by
President J. r. McKinnie of the West
ern Sugar and Land Company, operat-
ing largely in the Grand valley.
Colorado's sugar beet acreage. 1885,.
900 acres, comprises $4,000 acres In the
northern section OF the state, $4,000
acres in Arkansas valley, and 1000
in the Grand River valley.
The total crop for 1905 will approx
mate 1,250,O0O tons. At a conservative
estimate of IS per ton, Colorado farm
ers will receive $6,25O,O00.
The sugar output will be 125,000
tons, and at $50 per ton, the Colorado
manufacturers will receive 100000 900,
with an additional 100000 from by
products, Of which mOlasses Is one Of
the most important.
The cost of labor and manufacture
will amount to $2,5OO,000, with an ad-
ditional $1,500,000 for coal coke and
lime.
The total investment in Colorado su-
gar beet factories is $12,000,000. 1t is
estimated that the net interest will be
8 per cent. for this year.
Another important item in the sta
tistics is the benefit received by Colo
RADIO coal, coke and lime dealers, who
receive the S1,500,000 expended for
these supplies.
Sheep and cattle growers Of the state
get the bulk Of the profit from the pulp
and beet tops.

GRAND DUKE RESIGNS.
Relieved From Position as Head Of
Russian Navy,

St. Petersburg, June 16, $500 a. m.-
The sensational announcement was
mado shortly before midnight that
Grand Duke Alexis. the high admiral
who Is an uncle of the Emperor, and
Admiral Avellan, head of the Russian
admiralty department, had resigned.
This announcement was followed q
few minutes later by an official re-
script relieving the grand duke of the
supreme direction of the navy, which
he had held since the days of the EN-
peror's father, Alexander III. when
Russia resolved to enter the lists as
first-class sea power and to build up
great navy. the remnants of which
were destroyed In the battle of the Sea
Of Japan.
Although from time to time since the
war began there have been rumors
that the grand duke would retire on
account Of the savage criticisms, not
to use harder terms, directed against
the administration of the navy, es-
pecially In the construction of ships,
the announcement of his resignation
came like bolt out of the blue. 1t was
not preceded by any Of the rumors
which usually give warning of such an
act.
1t was felt, even in quarters where
charges Of corruption were not enter
tanned, that 1t would be unwise to en-
trust the building Of the navy to tho
hands which were responsible for the
hapless feets Of the past.

WASHINGTON NAMED.
Place Where seIIiserents Will Treat
for Peace.

Washington, June 16.-America's g
national capital has been selected as
tbs, seat Of negotiations between the
plepipotentiaries of Russia and Japan
for treaty of peace. The choice of
Washington as the location Of the
peace conference marks another for
ward step in the negotiations toward
ultimate peace on the plan suggested
by President Roosevelt. Japan had
suggested Che Foo and refused to
consent to Paris, which was the choice
Of Russia. The President then named
The Hague as desirable location, but
both belligerents objected. and they
finally agreed upon Washington.
Should the capitol prove too hot, the
plenipotentiaries may adjourn to some
northern summer resort for time.
1t is thought that the peace confer
ence will not begin before the middle
OF August.
Pressure is being exerted upon ia.
pan to be moderate in her demands by
European powers and the President. 1t
is asserted that an indemnity of bill
lion dollars is to much and 1t is not be-
lleved that Japan will ask over half a
billion.

The Beet Web Worm.

The beet web worm is expected to
make its appearance in Colorado
again this year. In regard to this
pest Prof. C. p. Gillette Of the Agri-
cultural College says:
"The beet growers cannot prepare
too soon for the web worm. Tho
mother moths are reported to be nu.
merous and where this is the case the
owner OF the field should lose no time
In procuring q spray pump and some
combination Of arsenic, as arsenite OF
lime, arsenate of lead, Paris green or
London purple. Arsenate of lead II
more easily mixed and applied. but is
by far the most expensive poison to
use. Paris green settles badly In the
barrel or tank that is used, and must
be kept thoroughly stirred. The chief
objection to Paris green last year in
Colorado was its serious adulteration
with white arsenic, causing it to burn
foliage.
These poisons may be applied dry
by means Of dust sprayeSs or by shak.
ing them through porous cloth sacks
carried in the hands, or they may be
applied in water by means of force
pump and spraying nozzles attached to
a barrel or tank. believe the wet
application is the best where 1t is con-
venient. Our experience at the col
lege demonstrates the following pre-
paration to be the most satisfactory:
One pound of Paris green to fifty gal
Ions Of water; six pounds of arsenate
of lead to 100 gallons of water; ar
senite of lime: boil together white
arsenic, lime and water for a. full
half hour in the following proportions:
One pound white arsenic. two pounds
OF lump lime, three gallons of water:
then dilute with 100 gallons Of water
and apply.
"The beet growers need not be un.
duly alarmed over visions of beet
fields being devastated by the web
worm, but 1t is the part Of wisdom to
invest a few dollars in poison and ap.
paratus to destroy these pests when
they do appear"

the FARM AND RANGE
SEED Whe.t for Colorado.

NIinam H. Olin, professor Of a4ro-
nomy at the State Agricultural College.
delivered an address at the Denver
Chamber Of Commerce luncheon . few
days since on the types OF grain best
adapted to Colorado.
Speaking about wheat, Professor
Olin said: In regard to wheat, l wish
to say have correspOnded with nearly
every miller In the state In refereace
to milling wheats. am convinced that
they are with me and will support me
in the statement that of all the spring
wheats tested in ColOrado-Defance
has given the best result. Therefore.
let us take this good wheat which has
been grown in our state for twenty
I'VE years in preference to any other
spring wheat. I wish to urge the use
of socalled Turkey Red winter wheat
(Which never saw Turkey, In all sec
tions of the state which grow . winter
wheat. 1t Is hardy, very satisfactory in
yield and our millers desire 1t above
all other types Of fall wheat. 1t Ia this
wheat which has made Kansas the
greatest wheat state in the Union.
Then on lands which cannot be irrt-
gated, lying between the spring and
AAA 01C6k hG6lVnop = eu66CbS AAACAo
test the growing Of some good drouth-
resisting wheat. Grain grown under
irrigation should not be used for seed
purposes on lands where grain is
grown without irrigation. II northern
grown seeds are more hardy than
those grown in southern climes, and
seeds grown at 5000 feet elevation ma
ture and endure frost conditions better
than those grown at sea level In the
same latitude. why should not grain
grown without irrigation under semi
arid conditions for several generations
be more drouth resistant than the same
kind Of grain under different condi-
tons?
Colorado should use for seed pur-
poses pedigreed grain. This can only
be made practical by the organizing Of
a seed growers association. 1t is my
purpose to attempt such an organiza-
ton at our next session of the farmers

So much is said and written these

may prove interesting: The popula-

ease stand upon the Isle of Wight.
Roughly, the population of the world
is 1.500.000,0p5. If each person was
allowed two square feet of standing
