Recent events in Morocco. particu-

Mulai Hafig, the usurping Sultan of
Fee, has brought the question of the
policing of that country once more be-
fore Europe. At the Algeciras confer

many approached an open rupture, it
was decided that France and Spain
had paramount interests and the right
alone to land troops for the preserva-
ton of order. The announcement that
France intends to insist on this agree
ment will mean the sending of a
stronger French force to Morocco and
the practical occupation of that coun-

APANESE VIEW
OF AOKHS RECALL

Especial Correspondence of The Chi
cago Daily News)
TOKYO. December 9.-The recall of
Viscount Aoki, Japanese ambassador In
Washington, is due to his having ex-
ceeded the instructions of the Toxic
foreign office. The recall of an am
bassador perhaps naturally suggests a
change in international policy, but It
is asserted here that there is no es-
sentia change contemp ated, leaving it
to be inferred that the change is merely
a personal one. II is erroneous to
think that it is intended to strengthen
Japan's policy in America. There is
no situation" between Japan and
America and the relations between the
two countries remain most friendly II
is Japan's intention to make them
closer and more friendly still
Viscount Aokis position had recently
become awkward. He is not incom-
petent, but it has not fallen to him to
be able to conciliate high and low. lie

made vice-minister of foreign affairs
and became full minister eighteen years
ago, but was again made the incumbent
of the same office in the last Yamagata
cabinet. On the other hand Count Ha-
yashi was transferred to the vice-min-
istership of foreign affairs from the
governorship of Hiogo prefecture one
year before the Chinese-Japanese war.
In 1895 he was made minister to Pekin

general in Korea, from Paris, and Min
lister Tsunetada Kato from Brussels.
Viscount Aoki has been recalled twice,
formerly from Germany and now from
America.
AS to the cause of Ambassador Aoki's
recall now from Washington, it is as
serted that he arbitrarily promised to
join the Russo-American Bering fishery
convention as intimated in the mes
sage to the last congress, but the Jap
anese government declined to do so.
Next, being approached by President
Roosevelt for definite stipuations In
the Acknowledgements treaty for the
prohibition of Japanese immigrants, in
return for the cancellation of the Sc
gregation order, in compliance with
the demand of the mayor and other
authorities in San Francisco, Viscount
Aoki promptly consented thereto. His
consent, conveyed to the San Francisco
authorities by President Roosevelt, led
to the settlement of the school affair.

Reports which will be made to the

every school in the city sent out calls
for substitute teachers to fill the places
of the women who are sick. Many of
the substitutes are also sick, and for
the first in a long time there is now
enough room for the pupils in all the
classrooms.
Two hundred of the students at the
Central High School are suffering
from grip and the teaching staff is
seriously depleted. When studies were

Aoki's promise given a few weeks ago
to the American government that the

CHEESE MAKING ON THE FARM.
By A Florida Farmer.

draining the whey off, Set mou1ds
where pressing is to be done, placing
piece of cheese cloth on the bottom,
but large enough to extend up half way,
then fill, cover the top with more
place on the weights for an hour or so,
then take contents out and turn over,
leaving it for six or seven hours when
it will be ready to dress, by immersing
in warm water, rubbing dry with a
warm, clean cloth or linen towel, wrap
linen cloth around outside, put cheese
back in the hoop, put on the weights
and leave under pressure for twenty
four hours Then the sailing begins,
which is very important part in cheese
making, also difficult one, because on
it depends the taste; it also takes out
moisture SO that fermentation is check
ed, for if rapid, gas holes form in the
interior. Two ways of sailing are
given; by brine and by the dry method,
but the writer favored brine, making a
"holding up an egg" solution; boil
till scum rises, skim and let COOL Put
the cheese in for about three hours,
depending on thickness of cheese; if
three inches thick, two and a half
hours are enough; if made too salty
it becomes dry and hard and cures
very slowly. Dry sailing is done by
rubbing the cheese all over with dry
salt twice day for four or five days.
In curing, put in a cool p1ace-a
cellar if you have one and it is dry.
A low temperature in curing makes a
better quality than a high one, say 50
degrees, though some advise 65 de-
grees; 70 degrees will injure and SO
will spoil the best kind of cheese. At
so degrees it takes about four months
to properly cure. Set on top shelf for
few weeks, dropping down as new
ones are made till the lower shelves
are reached. Room not too dry, as
weight is lost and cracks open for in
sects to enter.
Some work about all this? True, but
you get something worth eating and
don't have to pay rs cents per pound
for it. Make your cheese at home if
you can.

Editor Florida Agriculturist:
In short article in the Agricu1turist
of December nth, the owner of a
kicking heifer is advised to strap the
hind legs of the animal together. Now
I am going to give you remedy for
kicking COWS that [ have never tried
myself, for the reason that [ have not
had occasion to since learning of the
method.
Talking about cattle with a neighbor
sometime ago, the subject of kicking
COWS came up, and he told me that he
had read some years ago, that if a
rope was put around the cows body
just in front of the udder and tied fairly
tight, that after two or three attempts
to kick, the cow would give up and
stand perfectly still He stated that
he had quite frequently resorted to the
method and found it just as represented
and that furthermore the cow would
not attempt to kick when the rope was
thrown over her back without being
tied, after a few attempts to kick when
it was tied, but would kick if the rope
was not there.
In years past, have frequently tied
cows legs to prevent them kicking over
the milk pail, but never liked to do so,
as have seen COWS become so restless
an affort to disentangle their legs.
Try the rope around the body 1t
seems more human.
