and figure on how much it would |
cost him to have it hauled out and |
distributed by hand. comparing this
amount with the wear and tear, IL
terest on investment and the saving
OF labor with the manure spreader.
For instance: II manure spreader
costs him sl25 and could be counted |
on for ten years service. he would |
lose sl2.50 every year of his origi- |
nal investment: and, at per cent |
interest. would lose $3.50 interest, so |
that his manure spreader would actu-
ally cost him $40 year. He may |
find that the labor In distributing |
the manure from the barn lot out |
OF wagon by fork, would not cost |
him more than ten dollars. and from |
this consideration might be deferred |
from buying manure spreader.
He Is not apt TO give very much |
consideration to the fact that IL he |
has the distributor and has II con-
veniently located for receiving the |
cleanings from the stables. that he |
will likely save great deal more |
manure than he otherwise would |
and keep his stables in better condi-
ton. and thereby reap an indirect |
profit that may be OF considerable
Importance. | have known some |
cases where the barnyard manure |
was allowed TO go to waste absolute
ly before the manure spreader made |
its advent on the place. and after |
that the proprietor gradually placed |
greater and greater Importance on
saving the manure. and | have no
doubt that the increased crops from
the land receiving this fertilizer
paid many times over the cost of the
implement. think with any type
OF farming. where as many as ten

that manure spreader ought to be
part OF the farm equipment
Another phase of farm equipment
that pays good dividend In indirect /
results is a power-driven pump for
supplying water for live stock OF all
kinds. IL is true that many farms
have an unlimited supply OF really
wholesome water. but believe the
majority OF farmers do not attach
enough Importance TO the water sup
ply. Ponds and streams that gather
the wash water from barn lots and
pastures are frequently the means OF
transmitting various forms OF para
site diseases. including outbreaks OF
the more deadly forms OF bacterial
diseases. The losses sustained In
live stock are very frequently more
per year. than would be required to
install permanent pumping equip
ment by which water could be Sc
cured that would be absolutely safe
from contamination. In many regions
n hydraulic ram may be installed at
very small cost. and will pump water
from spring or stream that is free
from drainage water from animals
that may be infested with transmits
ible diseases; and there are few To-
calities that cannot secure a good
well at moderate cost, and a gaso-
line engine or tread-power can be
installed for pumping without very
heavy expenditure. Whom man

MORE TROUBLE WITH JAPAN.

An unpleasant feeling has been
caused as result of the invitations ex-
tended by the manager OF the Hotel
MARYLAND in Pasadena, CAL, fora ball
which he proposed to give in honor OF
the officers of the Japanese squadron,
now at Los Angeles. Society girls
living at the hotel, as well as those in
Pasadena, declared they would not
dance with the Japanese officers. The
hotel manager found that the senti'
ment against the Oriental officers was
practically unanimous, SO he called of
the ball. The Japanese admiral re,
garded this as direct insult to hi:
nation, and he also Cancelled his inyi-
tation to return dance on his ship.
Yesterday he refused permission to the
Long Beach school children to visit
the ship.

CHANGES IN ECCLESIASTICAL
LAW.

Changes in the ecclesiastical law OF
the Roman Catholic Church, as pro-
mulgated by Pope Plus, we're announ-
ced TO the clergy OF the archdiocese OF
New York yesterday at the triennial
synod held ut St. Patrick's Cathedral.
More than 600 priests attended.
The most important decree is the
marina cura," decided upon by the
consistorial congregation at Rome,
which takes from, the bishop or arch
bishop OF diocese or archdiocese
respectively, the power to remove 4
pastor. Hereafter the power OF re-
moyal will rest with the de amotionc
porachi," which consists OF six priests,
besides the archbishop.
.Ninc reasons for the removal OF q
pastor have been decided upon by the
conSistoriai congregation at Rome.
As announced, they are: Perpetual
insanity; such unfairncSS or ignorance
rs renders him incapable Of perform
ing his duties: permanent physical
or mental intirmitieS: The animoslty
Of lilo people wi;en il renders h'S WORK
useless and is likely to continue; loss
OF reputation: = hidden crime: bad
administration: gross neglect: continued
after warnings. and disohedicncc TO
the bishop. if continued after one or
two warnings.
Another change announced in the
canon laws OF the church is that per
tanning to tho age at which children
may receive first holy communion.
Heretofore it has been the custom
among priests in the English-Speaking
countries not to administer the sacra-
n,rnr unless child is between the ages
Of 10 and u. The decree issued by
Pope Plus makes it imperative for
priests ,lic world over To prepare child
rem so they may recciv" the first sacra-
mcnt upon attaining the age OF

The United States Steel corporation
has made public in New York its sec
ond plan for the protection of work
men at times of disability from injury
and in old age 1t comes in the shape
of pension system for long service.
Judge Gary announced the details
as follows:
Plans have now been consummated,
to begin on Jan. /, 1911, to gay pen
siOns from the United States Steel and
Carnegie pension fund, which was es-
tablished last spring by the United
States Steel corporation and Andrew
Carnegie.
For this purpose the United States
Steel corporation provided $8,000,0OO,
which, with the Carnegie relief fund
of $4,000,000, created by Andrew Car
negie on March II, 1901, makes up a
joint fund of $12,OOO,OOO. This pension
fund is administered by a board of
twelve trustees, through a manager
appointed by the board.
The board of trustees has adopted
pension rules for the administration
of the fund to take effect on Jan. /.
1911, and to apply to persons who are
in the service of the United sta es
Steel corporation and its subs diary
companies on and after that date.
Under the pension rules three class
es of pensions are provided.
First-Pensions by compulsory r.
tirement, granted to an empioye WHO
has been twenty years or longer IN
the service and have reached the C
| of seventy years for men and sixCy
years for women.
SecOnd-Pensions by retirement at
| their request, granted to employees who
have been twenty years or longer in
