The scenes attending the arrival of
the largest elephant ever known,
"Kongo,' were most remarkable.
From the time the people of this coun-
try, some twelve months ago, read of
the capture of Kongo, there has been
a curiosity to see this huge beast. AT

last spring, there were twenty-three
elephants captured-this being the en-

TRADE COURT OPENS
New York Tribunal Revived After
Lapse Of II Years.
Costly Trials Arc Eradicated-Ne
Jury or Lawyer Required and
Appeal From Decisions Of Ar.
bitrators Not Permitted.

New YOrk.-The business men
court of honor, a tribunal without
fudge, lawyer or Jury, yet recognized
by the laws Of the state, has been re-
vived in New York after lapse OF II
years. The court is conducted by the
chamber of commerce to settle dis
putes among merchants, and, SO far
as is known here, there is no other
court like it in the world.
In 1853 the business mems court
was established and for more than q
century merchants adjusted their dis
putes there. In 1874 the legislature
voted salary of 100000 a year to
the official arbitrator of the court, and
when this salary was discontinued IN
1895 the body passed out OF exist
ence. Several months ago move
ment was begun looking to the re-
establishment Of the tribunal, with
the result that several cases have just
been heard before 1t.
To try the average case requires an
expenditure of only $50 or $50. COM
pared with the heavy expenses OF
trials in the regularly constituted
courts of the state. The court is In
charge of the chamber of commerce's
committee on arbitration. The COM
mittee selects from the membership
OF the chamber a list of men qualified
to serve as arbitrators of disputes,
who are sworn in by q Justice of the
supreme court.
When any issue Is referred to the
committee for settlement the dis
putants are permitted to select the
arbitrator If they are unable to
agree upon one each is permitted to
choose an arbitrator. the two thus
chosen to select third.
There are no appeals from the
court. 1t has no means Of enforcing
its DEGREES, relying upon the fact that
merchants will not injure their repu-
tation by repudiating their written
agreement to accept the rulings.
In addition to the lessening Of ex-
penses and saving OF time, 1t is said
that the court Is enabled to render
decisions which are generally salts
factory to the disputants Arbitrators
engaged in the same line Of business
as the disputants are selected, so
that they may bring expert knowl-
edge to bear upon each case. The
court Is open to all business men Of
the city. Each disputant furnishes
his own witnesses and pays his fees.
The arbitrator receive $40 day.
The proceedings are secret.

TEST YOUR BARLEY.
BY A. L. Stone.


Every grower of barley should test
his seed before sowing. The vitality
of barley Is more easily injured by
heating IN stack or bin than is that
Of oats or wheat Age. too. lowers ite
vitality. A determination OF the
seeds power to grow. Is therefore alb
solutely necessary for the success Of
the future crop. Samples for the
termination test should be selected
from grain which has been previously
cleaned and graded. Cleaned to re-
move light and immatured barley,
weed seeds and foreign material.
Graded to secure the plumpest and
largest seeds, a uniformity in size and
maturity of the grain, will insure an
even growth and maturity Of the
crop.
A tester for. testing the samples can
be easily made by using two tin
plates, one slightly smaller than the
other. Cotton flannel pads are cut of
the same size as the inside of the un.
derplate. The pads are soaked in wa
ter. and squeezed to remove surplus
moisture. A pad is put in bottom OF
larger plate and 100 grains distribut-
ed over 1t. Another pad is placed
upon the seed and the smaller plate
inverted and used as a cover to pre-
vent evaporation This tester should
be placed in a convenient place where
the temperature is between "A and 80
degrees F. Water can be added to
pads when they become somewhat dry.
A record Of the test should be kept
and sprouted seeds removed from day
to day.
Should Test e5 Per Cent.
No grain should give termination
of less than 95 per cent for the best
results. The higher the percentage OF
termination the better. That all the
grain terminates is not sufficient. how

A LARGER YIELD OF BETTER
BARLEY
INV Prof. l. C. Rurnett.l

It would seem advisable to first con
slider Just what maner of barley we
are endeavoring to raise.
Barley is now being used largely for
feeding as well as brewing. For the
farmer who feeds his crop. the yield
per acre is of first importance. If on
the other hand the crop is to be sold
little attention to a few usually neg
lected items will make several dol
lars difference In the value OF every
acre.
What is desired of the barley crop!
The interest Of everybody concerned
in the barley crop is in the production
Of high yield of uniform grain. Let
me repeat, high yield and uniform
grain;" more bushels of one type OF
kernel, one size of kernel. one color
Of grain.
