npANESE GOVERNMENT SOON
TO ASSUME CONTROL OF
EMIGRATION.
notaiIs of Plans Will Be Submitted to
Ambassador o'Brien at Early Date
Canadian Minister Concludes Neuo-
tiations-Criticized for Ignoring the
American Representative.

Toxic, Dec. 2S-Rodolphe Lemieux,
Canadian minister of labor, who con-
ended his negotiations with the JAP
anpse government regarding the regu-
1ation of immigration to Canada, said
to the Associated Press:
MY lips are sealed on the subject.
Anv statement l have to make belongs
first to the dominion government. My
mission will be completed only after
NV return to Ottawa. My colleagues
there will be in position to fully dis
cuss and consider the whole question
in its various phases. 1 have every
reason to believe that solution of the
difficulty will soon be reached and
am pleased to say that my negotiations
with the Japanese foreign office were
conducted in the friendliest spirit.
Il return with nothing but the most
DIeasant recollections."
The Associated Press is in a posi-
ton to state that the situation is iden-
teal with it's previous forecasts. Mr..
Lemieux and Sir Claude M. MacDon-
aid the British ambassador, fully
agreed with the terms of the memo
raDdum, whereunder the Japanese
government outlines it's plans for the
future control of emigration, the an
nouncement of which will probably be
made when a similar arrangement is
outlined to Mr.. Thomas O'Brien, the
American ambassador, who, it is I'M
derstood, has submitted number of
suggestions from the American gov
eminent for the consideration of the
foreign office.
Control of Emigration.
These suggestions, it is believed,
largely served to guide the arrange
ment submitted to Canada through
Mr.. Lemieux, and there is every rea-
son to believe that the Japanese gov
eminent will soon submit to Ambas-
sador OBrien the details of the plans
to control emigration to America,
which practically amount to the pre-
yention of all labor emigration.
The attitude of Mr.. Lemieux toward
the American ambassador has aroused
much comment in diplomatic circles.
Lemieux entirely ignored the Ameri-
can embassy and evidently preferred
not to discuss the matter with Ambas-
sador O'Brien. 1t is understood that
the foreign minister, Viscount Haya-
shi, throughout his conferences with
LemieuX consistently declined to sac
riice any treaty rights, or to set any
limit upon the number Of Japanese
which will be permitted to land in
Canada monthly.
Mr. Lemieux and party sailed for
home on the Empress of China Deem
Der 26, the Canadian government hav-
ing instructed him to report at the
earliest possible moment.

Both these weeds are ANIMALS: that
is, they grow from seeds each year or
season and the plants die after ripen-
Ing seeds, The way to keep them down
Is to prevent the plants from ripening
seed and making sure that are no seeds
In the grain sown upon the farm. Fox
tall Is troublesome, because 1t springs
up In cultivated fields after the crops
are laid by, and then it comes up In
stubble and in meadows and pastures.
Late cultivation Of corn fields, and
moving the stubble, meadows and pas
lures to keep seeds from forming, Is
the way to attack this weed. Judging
from the way these weeds spring up,
whenever conditions are favorable,
there must be great stores of them In
cultivated fields-showing the seeds are
long-lived. Pigweed quickly springs up
In corn or potato fields, after culti-
walton has ceased. These seeds ripen
from August 13 to November /, so It
will take vigorous measures to get rid
of them. In fact, the only way to get
rid of these weeds is to cut them down
before seeds mature. II crop Of
them is left to mature In corn fields,
and then the seeds plowed under the
coming season, you have stored away
enough seeds to bother you for the
next ten years.

FOR Lousy stocnr.


Dip or wash the animals with q 1 %
2 per cent water solution Of a tar dis
infectant, such as kreso. A convenient
way to apply the remedy in the larger
animals is with spray pump, and In
sheep or hogs by dipping. Whatever
method is used, the coat and skin must
be thoroughly wet with the solution.
After treating the herd, the stables,
sheds or sleeping quarters should be
sprayed with about a 2 per cent water
solution of the disinfectant, or white
wash may be used instead. This IL
necessary In order to prevent reinfect-
Ing the herd from the surroundings.
1t there Is much litter around the yards
1t Is advisable to move the herd to
other corals. Tar disinfectants in /
or per cent solutions do not destroy
the eggs or nits, hence 1t Is necessary
to treat the animal again in ten days
or two weeks. sStockmen sometimes
ask If the feeding of sulphur to lousy
animals will not drive away or de-
stroy the lice The feeding Of small
doses of sulphur will do no harm, nor
will it help in getting rid of the lice,
and 1t cannot be considered a remedy
for this class of disorders when used
In this way. Sulphur Is effective, how
ever, when used externally, and the
addition OF four ounces to every gallon
of tar disinfectant solution used great
ly increases tho effectiveness nf tho

Shide, Isle of Wight, Dec. 31.-The
chronological instruments at the Shide
hill observatory registered an earth
quake yesterday morning. Prof. John
Milne, the well known authority on
seismic disturbances, says that it was
one of the greatest earthquakes ex-
perienced in some time, and recalls
those in the early part of 1907 and
the previous year. Prof. Milne, in
making comparison from the records
of today, referred to the Kingston,
Jamaica, disaster as being similar in
kind. He believed that the present
disturbance, if not of submarine orr
gin, may prove to have been most de-
structive.

other points, who would like to get

Negotiations, begun yesterday be-

was not definitely brought about, there

which are still In progress, are brought

The proposition made to the men by
Mr.. Noonan, which could not be OBJ

in whole by the meeting of the, unions,
to which 1t was referred last night by
the general committee that met Mr.
Noonan both in the morning and after

brought to Master Mechanic c. E. Cos

mittee, Mr.. Noonan having left for
Minneapolis on one of the early even

The reply of the unions does not,

committee to see Mr.. Gossett again
either this afternoon or tonight. 1t is
believed in the meantime that the
points unsettled have been submitted
by the unions to their grand officers.
1t is known that the differences
which still stand in the way of set

that eventually the company and the
