Feeding Grain with Pasture.

There is ample evidence that. although
milk yield may be increased by feed
ing grain to cows on good pasture, the
gain no more than pays for the extra
food and seldom does that. There may
be in some cases small margin for
profit in improving the pastures by less
grazing and richer manure Bulletin OF

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

st. Petersburg, June 16, 1920 a. M
The sensational announcement was
made 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 a
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-
perors father, Alexander III. when
Russia resolved to enter the lists as a
first-class sea power and to build up a
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 the
hands which were responsible for the
hapless fleets of the past.

Japan,s Probable 1erm,.

Vienna. June 16.-Certain intima-

pans terms are substantially as fol-
lows:
Ffrst-The recognition re of the Japan
ese protectorate over Korea.
Second-The return Of Manchuria to
China.
Third-Internationa 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
tifications 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 1t is declared Japan will content
herself with demanding the cost Of the

Jareeki Was Murdered.

Denver, June ia jury In the Fed.
eral Court Wednesday decided that
Seymour T. 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 a 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 circumstances 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-
tion of the gates in the back yard,
which were left open. as though some
one had hurriedly escaped in that d.
rection.
The defense urged that Jarecki was
in financial trouble and had threatened
to take his own life. The jury brought
in a verdict for the plaintiff for s5,20s,
which was the full amount of the in
surance, with interest added.
Washington, June 16.-Three new

WASHINGTON NAMED.
Place Where Belliserents viii Treat
for Peace.

Washington, June 1G.-America's s
national capital has been selected as
the seat of negotiations between the
plenipotentiaries of Russia and Japan
for a 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
plenipoteEtiaries may adjourn to some
northern summer resort for a 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-
leved that Japan will ask over half a
billion.

Royal Areanum Rates.

New York, June 19.-Plans are be
ing perfected to have a great mass
meeting in New York the latter part of
this week or early next week. to en-
phasize the protest of many members
of the Royal Arcanum against the new
rates adopted by the Supreme Council
at Atlantic City in May.
Although officers Of the organiza-
tions assert that the agitation will
blow over. the opposition appears to be
growing, especially in New York and
Brooklyn. In the official organ Of the
organization, which has just ap-
peared, members are told that under
no circumstances will there be any
revocation or even modification of the
decision of the supreme council.
1t Is asserted that unless such de-
cided increase in the premium as was
ordered had been made. 1t would only
have been a short time before the or
der would have had to go out Of busi-
ness.

Many Complaints Satisfactorily Set

ern Colorado.

Denver. June 19.-Since he became
state labor commissioner two months
ago e. v. Brake has had 112 com
plants filed in his Office, which have
nearly all been adjusted satisfactorily.
The law only requires that where COM
plants are made by laboring people
that they have been defrauded or un-
justly kept out of their wages the COM
missioner may investigate. 1t does
not give him power to act. but the
commissioner is great moral force
and usually very soon after case Is
reported it is speedily adjusted, be-
cause the employer is not counting
trouble. The cases are of great va
riety and the claims presented run
from 81 to several hundred.
Women are the greatest offenders.
strange as 1t may seem. They become
angry and discharge a servant or a
dressmaker. refusing to adjust the
wages until the end of the month, or
when they feel like it, and frequently
setting up a counter-claim for poor
work or broken dishes. A poor person
cannot wait. nor can he or she afford
to sue. setting forth the justice or in
justice of the claim against them.
There is much trouble. also. with en-
ployment agents, since, unhappily. a
good many unworthy persons go into
that business because it offers excel
lent opportunities for preying upon
the labor of others. Recently Mr..
Brake had a very aggravated claim OF
this kind. An agent attempted to ship
twenty-three men on a train to job
of work on a ticket that called for
twenty-one fares. The extra men were
put off. and one of them made his way
back to the city. He was out his COM
mission to the agent, lost his blankets
and was generally a sufferer. The
commissioner was able to adjust the
claim without trouble.
Commissioner Brake has no fund to
work with. but he has managed to Sc
cure legal services in a manner of his
own. He has made an arrangement
with r. l. Gregg, preceptor at the law
school of the Denver University. TO
handle the cases. Mr.. Gregg has a
good many young law students who
are looking for experience. and they
take up the petty cases and handle
them for nothing.

in this city yesterday, which ratified
the $1O0,O00.000 mortgage for bond
issue to carry out the improvement
plan of the company. The money de-
rived from the bond issue will be used
as follows:

WHY EYESIGHT FAILS
INFERIOR ARTIFICIAL LIGHT FIRE.
QUENTLY THE CAUSE.
IIIumInants Of the Past, One and All,
Have Serious Defeets-Aeetylene
Gas, with Its Clear, Unwaverine, Yet
Soft Flame Cannot Hurt the Eyes.

Chicago, June 20.-No one can
go into our schools or peet a
group of children on the street
without noticing how large a number
of them wear spectacles. The proper
ton seems to increase yearly, and
there are many more who ought to
teacher might be duplicated by the
score. She knew Alice was inatten-
tive and she thought she was unusual
ly stupid. She said go to the principal
and sent a note to the mother, re-
questing that the child be helped at
home If she wished her to keep up
with her class. One day after black
board explanation, the teacher called
upon the child and found that she
had not seen what had been written.
She was kept after school and by dint
of much sympathetic questioning Miss
C. found that Alice had never been
able to see what was put on the board
and that her head had ached SO often
and so hard that she frequently failed
to hear what was said.
Such a condition may be caused by
lack of proper food. but in our Ameri-
can homes 1t is usually due to the
poor quality of the artificial light. The
yellow, insufficient light of the ordi-
nary kerosene lamp. with its smoky
chimney, is about as bad for the eyes
as can be imagined. The fickering
light from a coal gas Jet is but little
better, and even the electric light,
brilliant as 1t usually Is. has an un-
steadiness due to variations in power.
and a glare peculiarly trying to the
delicate nerves of sight. The compar-
atively new illuminant acetylene gas
produces as nearly perfect an artificial
light as has yet been found. Il gives
q clear white, unwavering light. very
brilliant yet perfectly soft, and so
nearly like the rays of the sun that
even colors appear as in daylight.
Fortunately, acetylene is very easily
and cheaply produced. and the simple
apparatus necessary can be purchased
and Installed in any home at a very
moderate cost, and the acetylene can
be piped to convenient points in the
house where light is needed. 1t is
then lighted and extinguished and used
exactly like common city gas.
Acetylene is rapidly coming into
common use in homes. churches,
schools and institutions of all kinds,
and it is reasonable to expect that as
its use in the home increases. there
will be fewer defective eyes. particu-
larly among children. Poor eyesight
and the many Ills resulting therefrom
will undoubtedly be much reduced by
the use of this new illuminant.
