~ Out Policy of "StTong- handed Reform"

st. Petersburg, Aug. THE real in
tention of the government as revealed
by Il member of the cabinet to The As
s"ciated Press this Afternoon, shows
that Premier Stolypin at least intends
to pursue and hold an affirmative pol
icy, amounting virtually to deter
rination on the part of the admins
trati"n to settle the agrarian question
according to its own lights and ire
spcrtive of Parliament, and then go 10
the country upon this issue.
The government expects to rally, not
only the landed interests, but the mass
of the peasantry to its side by actual

lief instead of merely holding out
hopes of 4 more advantageous settle
ment in the indefinite future. which has
been the stock in trade of many per-
formers.
Politically, this move may prove
very strong. The actual bestoWal OF
land, even if in smaller quantities than
was expected, and the divisions of COM
munistic holdings. will, tits believed.

calculates, will inculcate that very re-
Spcct for property, the lack of which
under the system of communiStic hold
ings. has made many peasants such
easy converts to the theory of the ma
tiunaliZation of land.
The crux of the question is its fnau-
cial aspect. Ii will be a Herculean On
Grafton TO find the funds required TO
purchase the private holdings which
he project of Minister of Agriculture
Stichinsky contemplated acquiring
through the land banks, even though
the owners, under the spell of the
agrarian disorders, are ready to sell
ut most moderate prices. The char
actcr OF these disorders has been
shown again in q despatch from Pol
tava describing the destruction of an
estate owned by Prince KotchubSk,

That there is continued preparation

Terminating Power OF Weeds.

To determine what can be done to-
ward destroying weed seeds by deep
blowing, the Bureau of Plant Indus
try some time ago buried in the ground
q great many seeds represting in all
100 species, eighty-tour genera ana
thirty-four families. The seeds were
mixed with earth, placed in porous
clay pots, and buried in heavy clay soil,
at depths varying from eight inches 10
forty-two inches.
After a years burial the seeds were
taken up and tested for germination,
the results being compared with con-
troll samples which had been stored ia
cloth bags in dry room.
The results indicate tnat while the
seeds of cultivated plants lose their
vitality, the seeds of weeds retain their
powers of termination remarkably
we'll under such conditions. The deep
er the seeds are buried the better is
the vitality preserved and the harder
the seed ceats the better do the seeus
retain their terminating power.
However, it appears that many
weeds can be destroyed by deep
blowing and leaving the soil undls-
turbed for some time.
