Answering an inquiry in Hoard,

for butter, Prof. Harrington says.
Il know Of no reason why goats milk
If the goat is healthy and receives sound,
wholesome food. is not as valuable for
butter making as cows milk. and If the
milk is well taken care of and has no bad
odors you will probably never know the
difference if some goats milk is added 10

ing Port Arthur sought from time 10
time TO induce the Russians TO g,r-
render. in order TO prevent as much as
possible unnecessary sacrifice of life
n 70 save the Russians from unnec-
essary privations, is made plain by the
following story told by a correspond
ent of the Osaka Aashi.
In the carly part OF October last tho
Japanese occupied an outpost OF a
Russian fort on the northern slope OF
the East Kikwan mountain Now that
the opposing forces were brought very
near TO each other. the Japanese gen
erals in charge thought of a hundred
and one Plans 10 induce the individual
Russian soldiers to surrender. Finally
they arrived at an ingenious device.
Miyagoghi Jusaku was a Russian
Japanese interpreter in the service OF
the Japanese army. lie could write
in Russian very nicely. So he wrote
the following letter. which was fas-
tened TO an arrow and was sent with
the latter by a skilful archer. who ex-
erted all the strength of his arms in
bending the bow.
