EXPERTS WILL AID FARMERS
Department Of Agriculture Establishes
Bureau In Salt Lake City.

Washington, d. C.--The Rocky noun
tain region and states along the Pacific
coast should stop procuring dairy pro
ducts from the east, and in addition
to producing its own supply 1t should
begin to help supply the east. The
rich western lands, now that irrigation
is being supplied, produce cheap alfalfa
and other feeds, and this will make
dairying very profitable. Moreover
dairrying is necessary in order to make
alfalfa raising as profitable as It should
be. The all-important thing is that
as dairying is started in new regions
it should be started right, and the
department of agriculture is helping
to start it right All the work will be
done in cooperation with state insti.
buttons, and as soon as they are in a
position to carry on the work without
it, the departments aid will be with
drawn.
Center at Salt Lake City.
With the establishment of the new
central bureau at Salt Lake City the
dairy industry of the west is expected
to become a most important factor in
the next few years. There are now
two dairy division men working in
Idaho in cooperation with the state
university, two in North Dakota in CO
operation with the state dairy commits
sioner, one in Colorado in cooperation
with the agricultural college, and one
man has been assigned to Utah to be
gin work there at once in cooperation
with the agricultural college. All OF
these men will be directed from the
Salt Lake City office.
The secretary of agriculture desires
to increase this work in the western
states as rapidly as funds will permit
provided proper cooperative agreement
can be made. These men go right out
among the dairy farmers and give
them personal aid in improving theil
work, in building silos, in keeping
records of the individual COWS to SCI
which are profitable and which ar,
not and in other ways.
Have Helped the South.
In the southern states where dairy
ling has been backward, the field mel
of the department of agriculture hav
helped many dairymen to increas
their profits 200 or 300 per cent within
one or two years, and at the same tim
have increased the wholesomeness Q
their products. 1t is expected tina
even better results will be obtained /
the west. Nine southern states whic
were doing no educational work i
dairying at all when the dairy div
sion began work there several year
ago are now paying a part or all {
the cost of that work, and it is produ
ing splendid results.

Inauguration Ceremony in April.

Hamilton. Bermuda.-Goy. Woodrow
Wilson is willing to take the oath OF
office as president of the United
States without ostentation on March
4, and that the formal ceremonies that
every four years attract many visitors
to Washington be postponed until the
last Thursday in April.
To that extent he has approved the
propaganda in favor of a later inaugu-
ration, which has been advocated in
and out of congress, in order that the
event may be conducted at time when
the weather usually is propitious at
the national capital.

Leave Treaty for Wilson.

Washington-Th Taft administra
ton does not intend to make any agree
ment or enter into a modus vivendi
to supplant the treaty with Russia
which expires January 1. The question
of a new treaty and the subject of the
treatment of American Jews travelling
in Russia, which raised a storm all
over the United States last spring, will
be one of the heritages that President
Taft will leave to Mr.. Wilson.

RuIearIans Massaore Turks.

Travellers from Dedeaghatch de-
scribed the massacre of Moslems by
the Bulgarians when they entered that
town, which is reported to be typical
of what is happening throughout Mace
donia: The first Bulgarians to enter
were an irregular band of not more
than 1870. A shot was fired from the
mosque, which was flying the white
flag, whereupOn the Bulgarians demol-
ished the mosque with bombs and
burned and looted the Turkish quar-
ter and massacred 500 persons. More
than 100 bodies were counted in the

BRIDGES are Repaired.

TIE meetings of the peace delegates
have been held near the bridge span
ming the river Karasu, between Tscha-
ITALIA and Hademkeui. The Bulgarians
arrived on horseback on both Tuesday
and Wednesday. On Thursday Nazim
Pasha, the turkish commander in chief,
entertained at luncheon. The Turks
arrived early, buttrere was no sign of
the Bulgarians.
Presently the approach of a train
from Tchatalja was reported. Nazim
Pasha was skeptical, believing that the
Bulgarians could not repair the
bridges, which had been blown up. A
Bulgarian train soon appeared, how
ever, and IA sat down to luncheon. 1t
seemed to be a cordial meeting.
There were AS cases Of cholera in
Constantinople Saturday, with nine
