JAPAN NEEDS MONEY.
Thought That This Can Be Raised in
France Now.

Paris, June 1S.-While political con-
siderations of high order contributed to
the negotiation Of the new Franco-Jap-
anese entente, there is no longer any
doubt that the substantial quid pro quo
given by Flance was the promise OF ac-
cess to the French market for future
Japanese loans. Japan did net need a
French guarantee for Corea and Formo-
sa, but Japanese guarantee for 1ndo-
China was worth great deal to France.
Japan, according to the confidential
statements made by some of her high
est representatives in Europe will need
something like five billion francs ($l,-
900, 900, ,O0OD within the next few years
to convert her present high rate loans
and to furnish the capital necessary for

\ good many people broke their rest,
week or two ago, to see little,
measiy, 2-cent comet that was reported
to infest the eastern heavens and TO be
vssable "iust befo' day" And the ne
gro evangelists worked the excitement
to the limit among the sinners.
Now, however, according to the wise
men, there is a sure-enough comet TO be
seen. II is called Daniels cOment, and
h thus described:
The present comet was discovered
June 9thby Professor Daniel, of Prince
ton University. It has a pale, diaph-
anous tail, as flmsy as a summer shirt
waist, which extends like broad white
feather for Ia degrees, or about %
times the diameter of the moon. Its
nncins is is very luminous, and shines
brightly as a star of the second magni-
tude. This cement is 30 times as big
as the earth, and is scOOting around the
sun at the rate of % miles second,
which is certainly going some, even for
a comet. It is more than u, 900, 900
miles distant from the earth.

THE COOLEST APRIL.
Weather Bureau Reports Average
Temperature of AZ Degrees.

April was the coolest April known
to the weather records. 1t was a
month of frosts and freezes and cold
winds
April, 1907. gave a record for tenn
perature averaging 47.3. The average
temperature for 20 years has been Sc
degrees. The next coolest April was
that of 1904 when the average tenn
perature was 49 degrees. In 1896 was
the hottest April on record here, the
average then being 62.S. The highest
temperature reached during the April
just passed was SO degrees and the
lowest was 25 degrees.
In the matter of moisture, too,
April 1907, showed up badly. The
total fall of water amounted to but SO
of an inch-a quantity the equal of
which often during the spring months
here will be precipitated in a single
24hour period. This falls far below
the average, the latter being 2.65
inches. This April is the driest with
the exception of 1902, when rs of an
inch was the total for the month. In
1895 the rainfall for April amounted to
one-tenth of an inch more than this
year, then being 80 of an inch.
The sunshine during April was only
So per cent of what it might have
been. During the nine years when a
sunshine record has been kept here,

has shown himself with the exception
of two years. There were Il clear
days Z partly cloudy and L 1 cloudy.
Four-tenths of an inch of snow fell
during the month-about an average
quantity for the month of April.

SOME APPLES ARE LEFT.
Big Orchard in AtchfSon County VIII
Bear Considerable Fruit.

Leayenworth, May IA represent
alive of the Post has just visited one
of the largest fruit farms in this sec
ton of Kansas-the Remsburg farm
just over the line of Atchison county
This farm raises many apples,
peaches and pears, but does not make
a specially of any kind of fruit 1t
produces fruits of all kinds.
A careful examination of the apple
buds showed about half of them to be
alive. The live buds appeared to be in
healthful state. and j. E. Remsburg,
who has been in the fruit raising bust
ness forty years on the same farm,
gives it as his opinion that most of
these buds will make good apples,
provided, of course. the weather from
now on is favorable to them Even
the Jonathans. a fall apple, appear to
be i'll fair shape, a majority of the
buds being alive. The early summer
apples, such as the Early Harvest,
seem to be about the only varieties
that succumbed to the cold. When an
apple tree has it's full quota of bios
SONS. four-fifths of these can be
killed and still leave the tree with a
fair yield of fruit.
Peaches and pears suffered more
than the apples. Pears will be total
failure. but there will be a fair yield
of peaches.
