British Preparations Reflect Serious

The gravity OF the situation arising
from Frances refusal TO grant Ger
maLy's demands as regards Moroc-
co is reflected in England by the ex-
traordirary precautions being taken
throughout the United Kingdom.
The army and navy is held at It's
highest degree OF efficiency. England
is prepared for any eventuality.
Startling precautions are being
taken at Sheerness. Mounted armed
guards are stationed at all the APP
proaches and everyone seeking ad-
mission is challenged.
The barbados recently erected
around the two searchlights east of
the Ravelin batteries are closed
night and day despite the protests

views OF the North sea, has been
strongly barricaded and at night is
guarded by infantry with fixed bay
onets and ball cartridges.

PROFIT IN SHEEP
Feeder Sheep and Lambs Are
Now Cheap.
GOOD MONEY IN PROSPECT
A seIf-Evident Proposition.

Good growing stock of any kind that
is selling below the cost of production
Is always a safe investment, IL the
purchaser Is prepared to take good
care OF 1t.
He who buys and develops such
stock is almost certain to make
good profit, in doing SO, because pro-
duction will not long continue at a
loss. while consumption of staples
must. go on steadily.
Not many others are buying such
stock, O. Nelse 1t would not be selling
SO cheiley. and 1t follows logically
and consistently that when 1t has
been grown and finished for market.
there will then be comparative
scarcity of such finished stock and
such good prices will be realized for it
that handsome profit will result from
the deal
This reasoning is self-evident. and
applies with especial emphasis to the
present situation in feeder sheep and
lambs.
Last years conditions are now re-
versed. Then nearly everybody was
crazy 70 feed sheep and lambs, and
an immense number were sold and
shipped to the country at about the
highest prices on record. This to-
gether with an enormous corn crop
of high feeding value, world of
perfectly cured roughage and splen-
did winter feeding season were fac
tors that combined TO produce heavy
supply of fat sheep and lambs for
market during the early part OF this
year, while retailers of meats held
up prices to consumers, so that con-
sumption was limited, with the nat
ural and logical result of low prices
and feeders losses in most instances.
In consequence Of last years UNI
profitable experience and present
scarcity &c grass and hay. most farm
ers and many professional feeders Of
sheep and lambs are now avoiding the
market, and very few are being ship
ped to the country, while prices are
the lowest since 1904. In fact, feed
err sheep and lambs are selling on the
market today for less than the cost Of
production.
These facts mean that early next
year there will be a scarcity Of fat
sheep and lambs at market, and COM
paratively high prices will prevail.
Those who have the nerve to go con-
trary to the crowd and invest in good,
thin but thrifty feeder sheep and
lambs at the present low price, will
have no cause to regret their enterpris-
ing independence when they come to
market them in finished condition.
The concensus of opinion of the
best minds in the trade is that since
both prices for feeding stock and pros
poets for fat stock are much better
than they were last year, therefore the
opportunities for profit are CORE
spondingly better. In fact, the whole
situation is the reverse of last year.
Now is the time to buy, because
range conditions are such that most
OF the sheep and lambs will come TO
market from the range regions ready
for slaughter, while fewer of the feed
er classes will be marketed during the
remainder of this year, and the supply
will not equal the probable Fall de-
mand, so that prices are likely to be
materially higher in October and No

STOLyP|N
SHOT BY ASSASSIN
WOUNDS ARE NOT NECESSARILY
FATAL SAY DOCTORS AFTER
FIRST EXAMINATION.
1T WAS THOUGHT FIRST THAT
THE EMPEROR WAS VICTIM.
The Emperor Was Near Stoiypin in
Theater at kiev When the
the Nihilist Lawyer Made
His Attacks.

Premier Peter Alexandrovitch
Stolypin was twice shot by a would
be assassin during a gala performance
at the opera house in Kiev Car
Nicholas was in the audience and at
first 1t was feared that his life had
been attempted.
Stolypin's wounds were first re-
garded as mortal. but physicians who
attended him are hopeful that he will
recover. They decided not to oper-
ate.
The man who fired the shots is a
lawyer named Bogrof. He was sit
ting directly behind the premier and
both bullets took effect.
Wild excitement followed the fir
ing. With the first shot the car
dropped out of sight and as a score
of secret agents rushed to his box
with drawn revolvers the cry went
up that the emperor had been killed.
In the immediate vicinity of the
premier, however. ii was seen at
once who the victim had been. While
those nearest him supported him, at
tempted to aid him and called for
physicians. others seized Bogrof He
was nearly torn to pieces by the mob
before rescued by the police.
The car was hurried out of the
theater by a private way and into a
carriage, which was driven rapidly
TO the palace. The audience was
finally quoted and before dispensing
sang the national anthem
The premier was removed to the
palace. The bullets wounded the
pleura aud grazed the liver.
Real Ruler OF Russia.
AS premier of Russia, Mr.. Stolypin
is the man who blocked the Russian
outbreaks which threatened to effect
a revolution and which came to a
head during the term Of Office of
Count White. His conduct Of his Of
flee was attended with drastic and
repressive measures that earned him
the hatred of the progressive classes
and led to repeated attempts upon
his life by the revolutionists
The rapid retaliatory steps which
he took among the terrorists won him
the detestation of the advanced par.
ties but the support of the existing
order and made him the real auto
crat of Russia, with power exceeding
that of the car himself.
"Stolypin's necktie" became the
synonym for the hangman's moose
throughout Russia Trials and per.
secutions proceeded with great ra-
pidity under his direction and the
advent of a more radical form of gov.
eminent was checked. He quarreled
frequently with the duma and was
victorious in his disputes with that
body, owing to the confidence of the
car, which he enjoyed. When NJ
Stolypin accepted the premiership he
was perfectly conscious of his dan
ger He said at the time;
81 have no doubt that attempts will
be made upon my life, but | hope
that order will be restored and sta
bility established in Russia before
they are successful"

MORE ABOUT APPLES.

Each family has its own favorite
dishes. but few new ones are always
welcome to the cook. The following
Will not be new to everyone. for as
there is nothing new under the sun"
1t would be impossible to find any
think entirely fresh.
A dessert which is both pref
ty and delicious is baked
apples with nuts. The apples are
peeled and cored, put into a baking
dish with a little water and sugar,
then fill the cavity with chopped nuts.
When they are half cooked serve cold
with whipped cream.
Another nice dessert IS apple
meringue. Core and bake the fruit
ange marmalade. Beat the white OF
an egg. add sugar and pour over the
apples, then brown In the oven.
A rosy apple will make a very
pretty dessert. Cook IL after coring,
without pairing, in a little sugar and
water. Remove the skin carefully and
the rosy cheek of the apple will be
thing of beauty. II not enough of the
rosy hue comes of. scrape the inside
OF the cooked skin and paint II back
upon the apple.
Apples make a delicious sauce for
meats when spiced as any fruit. This
makes nice sauce for pork roast
The apples must be tart and cooked a
long time to be thoroughly seasoned
with the spices.
For apple amber, chop three-quar-
tiers OF a pound of apples peeled and
cored. and four ounces Of suet. Mix
with six ounces of bread crumbs. two
ounces each of -four and sugar. two
well-beaten eggs and a little grated
lemon peel and nutmeg. Butter plain
mold, thoroughly beat the batter. turn
1t in and cover the mold with cloth.
