WAR CASTS NO SHADOW
OVER CONSTANT|NOPLE
FILLED MERCHANTS PLY THEIR TRADE
FAMILIES ARE SEPARATED FLOOD OF REFUGEES.

1t would take but little to let the
fullest hell loose there. Let a shell
come screaming over the hill and land
in this camp and there would be a
mad rush into Stamboul, panic in its
narrow streets, boundless burst of
horror from end to end of its wide
huddled area.
The partition between safety and
danger is indeed thin. A panic would
be easily raised. In the city the young
Turks plot showed how troubled were
the political waters beneath the sur
face. 1t is like living on the edge of
a volcano. A death dealing stream Of
terror might come at any moment.
Nor in this incessant, living tide of
outcasts the only side of the war
which is not for show" Now here
are such hideous sights to be seen as
within the sacred Stamboul mosques.
Round the buildings are the refu-
gees, many thousands struck down by
the disease which can only mean
death. In Stamboul the great mosque
of st. Sophia is most conspicuous
feature. The interior is gorgeous, for
the great temples of the old world
were plundered so that the Emperor
Justinian might say, 81 have excelled
the work of Solomon" but today the
visitor can scarcely turn his eyes to
note its treasures and glories of the
carvan centuries. On their platform
the Muezzins rise and fall to family
spoken praying. In the corner of the
room the devout are performing their
religious rites.
Some days ago one would have
watched them. but now there is only
one thing to note. Scattered over the
floor lay stricken soldiers and refu-
gees, some dead, many almost at the

Denver.-On allegations of a tacit
agreement to work the property joint
ly, in violation of federal law, $4,000
900 worth of coal lands near Paonia re-
vert to the government, through a de-
cision just reached by the general land
office at Washington which reYerses
the decree of the local land office at
Montrose.
The case, which will be appealed to
Secretary of the Interior Fisher by the
coal men, involves 1,120 acres of the
choicest coal land existing. The coal
on the land is pronounced by experts
to be hard and of fine quality, running
100 feet thick in some places. The
value of the coal in the property in
volyed is estimated by NJ. d. McEniry,
chief of the fifth field division, at 81
100000, on a basis of soc a ton.
The lowest price the government
puts on this land, when classified for
sale, varies from $3.50 to $425 an acre,
averaging s400.
The fields lie in the western part of
Gunnison and the eastern part of
Delta counties, township 13 south,
range 80 west being the description Of
the land affected by the decision.

end of their troubles-a grim, huddled
mass of pitiable humanity.
The wildness was out of their eyes;
only WEAKNESS was left. Heroic doc
tors were doing their best, but what
fearful fight was theirs! They war
against foe which receives incessant
formidable reinforcement. They can
not hope to win save a little fight here
and there. The greatest struggle will
go against them, yet they hold to their
ground manfully and well, against all
the cohorts which the disease hurls
against them
To go out into the sunshine again
is only to walk through reverend
ing street of sorrow. Sometimes one
sees food and clothing given to refu-
gees as dark caravan lights up here
and there with brightness brought by
unexpected joy
The wastage of this war as seen in
Stamboul is really frightful. Yet
what unrolls itself before ones eyes,
here is but a tithe of all.
= We may be able to look across its
horrors and still see the blue in heav-
en-, but one doubts if there can be
shouts of victory or joy bells loud
enough to efface from ones memory
the awful horrors brought from the
desolated countryside by the stream
ing, struggling caravan of human mis-
cry which pours relentlessly into the
city of the golden hero.
One climbs into Pera again. 1t Is
like passing out of a nightmare. In
Pera. everything is comparatively
peaceful. Handy men of half dozen
navies have landed and are holding
the embassies, consulates and foreign
schools. 1t is good to see the jolly
Jack Tar in the streets, the MILDLY buy
ing picture post cards and the stall
wart officers, a fine breed of men, in
one service, and then only one in all
the world.
Pera is crowded. Its shops and res
taurants and cafes are busy. Not only
does one receive the impression that
this is not the city with the enemy al
most within gunshot, but one also is
soon convinced that this is people
with no heart for the serious business
on hand-a nation of triflerS

ANTS ASSIST THE CORN
ROOT LOUISE.
(By r. L. WEBSTER.)

If you notice your corn plants
dWarfing in patches over the field
and the leaves of such plants turn
ing yellow or reddish color, look
carefully around the base Of the
stalks for ant hills. If numerous ant
hills are found, you may conclude
that the corn-root louise is sucking
the juice from the corn roots, weak
ening the stalks and consequently
reducing the yield.
It is the presence Of the ants that
is the interesting part of the story.
The root aphiS Secretes a sweet sub
stance, known as "honey dew of
which the ants are very fond. For
this a the root lice are very we'll
by one kind Of ant known as the
little brown ant In the fall h
ants take the eggs Of the DOT aphis
down into their nests and keep them
there throughout the winter. The
next spring, when the eggs hatch, the
ants place the young root lice on the
roots Of the common smartweed,
where the lice begin to feed. Later
on, If the ground be planted to corn,
the ants transfer the root lice from
the weeds to the cor roots.
A deep, thorough, stirring of the
soil on old corn ground will tend to
reduce injury by the rOot-lOuSe. This
stirring Of the soil breaks up the
nests and scatters the ants. Con-
s~equently the ants cannot give the
lice the proper care. The burrows
OF these ants do not often reach to

the attempts Of the ants to recover
tne1r property and reconstruct their
nests are rendered largely fruitless.
