Alfalfa Average. s,s2 Per Acre

will also add that such a return is
possible only on the intensive farm

in Colorado has yet yielded any such
handsome returns. But the alfalfa
seed growers of Rio Blanco county
this year received prices for their
crops which netted them Just that
sum. Henry Stadtman of the White

alfalfa seed land, threshed total of
42O bushels of seed. which, at the

FORMAL OBJECTIONS TO FREE
CANAL TOLLS FOR AMERICAN
STEAMERS FILED.
TAFT Will HOLD FIRM
CREWS MESSAGE CHARGES IN.
JUSTICE AND VIOLATION
OF PLEDGES.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington.-Great Britains formal
note OF protest against that section OF
the Panama canal act which exempts
American coastwise shipping from
payment of tolls for passing through
the Panama canal. 4 document writ.
ten by Earl Grey. British minister for
foreign affairs. was presented to Sec
retary Knox by the British ambassa-
dor, James Bryce, who read the note
word for word to the secretary at the
lattcr's home. 1t IL an elaboration Of
the points Of objection in the note pre-
seEted to the State Department last
July.
The note declares that while it was
clearly in violation OF the Hay-Paunce.
fote treaty either to remit or refund
tolls on all American shipping using
the canal, the same objection might
apply TO the cOastwiSe trade shipping
i'll view of the probable impossibility
OF framing regulations that would not
result in a preference to American
shipping.
In addition to supporting these
points by long arguments, Earl Grey
indicates clearly that strong resist
ance will be offered to any attempt to
exclude from the canal British ships
owned by. Canadian railroads or by
British subjects interested in the traf.
iic who may be guilty of violating the
sherman antitrust act
He holds that this section of the act
cannot apply to British shipping, but
only to United States vessels.
He indicates that underlying the
objection to the exemption from toll of
American coastwise ships is an appre.
hension that i'll the future the prin-
ciple might be extended to cover
American ships in the foreign trade.
Otherwise the note is devoted al
most entirely to an effort to demon.
strate that any exemption Of American
shipping as Is proposed is in direct
conflict with the terms of the Hay
Pauncefote treaty and that President
Taft was clearly wrong when he took
the contrary view.
The British note might be summed
up as a definition of the differences
between the two governments regard
ing the construction of the Hay
Pauncefote treaty, winding up with a
proposal that the issues be settled by
arbitration. if they cannot be adjusted
by mutual agreement for which a way
remains open.
Secretary Knox listened attentively
to the reading of the note and prom
Used to take the matter under consid-
Grafton. which he felt would require
some time. 1t has been strongly init.
mated in official circles that 1t was
the Presidents intention to settle this
important question before closing his
administration. either by recommend
ing that the Senate agree to submit
it to arbitration, or preferably by the
more direct means of an agreement
between the two nations
