The tour Of Krivoshein showed
that the chief needs in Central Asia
are cheap grain, cheap credit and
cheap labor The state and the peas

to compete with the Jewish. Ameri-

In lieu of the available cheap Al
CHAN, Cashgar and Chinese labor, M.
Krivoshein proposes to colonize Rus
SLAMS exclusively on the lands to be
reclaimed by irrigation.
Cotton is also successfully pushed
northward in the Caucasus, on land
non.irrigated, and in the Mughan and
Mil steppes, irrigated fro mthe Arax
and the Kura. Since 1905 it has been
planted for experiments in the val
legs of the Bug and the Dnieper. The
results show that this is botantcally
possible. but so far, commercially
risky or doubtful, on account Of
frOsts.
Russia has created this entire cot
ton production herself. Cotton is ma
tive in Central Asia, but began to be
planted regularly as a crop only af-
ter the Russian conquest. In 1884
Morozoff, the cotton manufacturer of
Moscow, was instrumental in plant !
ing no acres with American upland |

had been pushed to $4,000 acres. In !
the next four years they again trfpled.
and reached $4,000 acres in 1896. At |
present the total in Central Asia and |
the Caucasus is 100000 acres. The
most potent factor in this growth has |
been the protective duty on cotton,
now reaching 4 roubles Is copecks,

ST. PETERSBURG. June 1.-The
russian cotton industry is feeling the
effects Of the abrogation of the Rus
so-American treaty. Russian determ-
inatiOn to resist Influence to the Je-
wish passport question is now seen
to involve the eventuality of trade
hOstilities with America.
To Russia the most vital article OF
Russo-American trade is cotton. Con-
sequently, when aggressive proposals
were introduced in the Duma upon
the heels of the abrogation, public
opinion, in unison with Baron Knop
and all other cotton manufacturers,
cried out that reprisals on American
products would strike none but the
Russian consumer.
The patriotic motto now is to free
Russia from American cotton. OF
some American farming machines
she cannot hope to free herself soon
because of quality. The peasants
and the opposition vote threw out
bounties for Russian-built machines
in a ministerial bill for farm ma
chimes manufacture, but the Duma
members n the joint committee re-
ceded from the Duma vote, and the
bounties clause has been restored.
Only the agrarian and peasant inter
ests now might stay the withdrawal
of the reduced schedule on foreign
machinery. Even SO, new works are
planned at Riga, Kiev, and other
points by German and Russian cap
ital.
A still greater impetus has been
given to home cotton. The Minister
of Agriculture, NJ. Krovishein, with
staff Of experts, has completed a fort
nights tour of inspection in the cot
ton distr cts of Central Asia. The
russian delegate at the coming In
ternational Congress of Navigation in
Philadelphia, NJ. Shovguenoff, an en-
ginees by profession, has been COM
missioned to make study of the big
irrigation works, with mechanical APP
planes, which are now being car
ried out in the United States.
All Russian cotton In Central Asia
is irrigation grown. Upon 1,026,000

now needs. But this area has been
powerless to change the ratio, and
has barely succeeded in keeping up
with the demand. Alongside of it,
however, are 100000 acres Of suit
able land, available for irrigation
from the waters of the Syr Darya
and the Oxus, at an estimated ex-
pense of from $40 to $38 per acre,
the work to occupy 20 to Is years.
Causes connected with the cost, the
requisite technical skill and labor,
the involved land and water rights
have hitherto blocked progress. Bills
before the Duma, or being
drafted by the Ministry Of Agricul.
ture, would establish water law in
the TurKestan and permit private
initiative and capital to assist the
treasury in the undertaking. A con-
tract with Moscow engineer, M.
calls for the completion Of
a canal to irrigate $4,000 acres in
Samarkand Province by 1914 The
work had been advancing slowly for
years, when the Russo-American ev-
ents interviewed and forced the pace.

headed by M. Kusnetsoff, Of the Pere- !

Forks were introduced into Eng
land three centuries ago but did not
come into general use until some time
later. 81 observe" commented an
English traveller in Italy, writing I'M
der date of Feb. 8, 1911, just 300 years
ago today, that in this country they
do always at their meals use a little
fork to carry their food to their
mouth, instead of Gods fingers. To
eat with the fingers gives offense to
the company and is considered sign
of i'll breeding. The reason Of this
their curious custom is that the tall
an cannot by any means endure to
have his meat touched with fingers,
seeing that all mems fingers are not
alike clean" In 1917 an English di'
vine preached a sermon against forks,
calling them devices of the devil, u
and called upon all travellers return

Conservation of Natural Re-
sources" and the New Nationalism,"
issues still under discussion in the
United States, have reached far ad-
vanced stages of settled policy In
Germany, as is shown by the decision
of the Prussian Minister of Commerce
to turn over to the Rheinisch West
phalian Coal Syndicate, the great Ger
man fuel trust" the sale of all the
coal produced by the government
mines in Westphalia. This is a de-
velopment scarcely conceivable under
American conceptions of these poll
cies, but quite in harmony with Ger
man ideas of the proper relation of
the government to great combina-
lions.
Under it's settled policy of public
utilization of natural resources, the
Prussian state has now become the
largest individual owner of coal lands
in the country, it's recent purchases
under the law of June IS, 1907, having
given it a total of 1S9,770 acres, al
most three times as much as the larg-
est private owner, the Gelsenkirchen,
er Mining Company. This law of
1907, which aimed to prevent the I'M
developed fuel resources of the coun-
try falling into the hands of some
monopolistic organization with pow
err to throttle industry at any future
time by controlling the fuel supply
authorized the state to reserve the
mineral rights in $50 "maximal fields,
of approximately SAB IL acres each
before the remaining coal lands were
thrown open to general private own
ership. The state has now selected
and acquired the full area authoriz
ed by the law, some 10000 acres

Berlin, Feb. Germany, where in
terest in track and field sports,
though of recent origin, begins to vie
with that in the United States and
Great Britain, is preparing to make
formidable bid for supremacy at the
Olympic games in Stockholm this
year.
At a meeting to the German Imperi-
al committee for the games, under the
presidency of Victor Won Podbielsky,
former Minister of Agriculture. 1t was
decided to send team Of about 100
men to the games, paying their trans
portation, board and other expenses.
AS a lack of hotel accommodations
is already becoming evident, 1t is pro-
posed to charter a special steamer for
quarters for the athletes.
Expenses for the German team are
estimated at about $4,000. OF this 1t
is hoped that the German govern
ment, which has already created a
precedent by providing funds for the
German horsemen competing in the
military and civilian riding competi-
lions, will pay I12,500. the balance be-
ing met by private subscriptions. The
sum. though small compared with the
$4,000 raised in the United States,
will be sufficient, as the fare to
Stockholm from Berlin Is low. A spe-
cial train will carry the expected
crowd of German supporters.
Trials to pick the German competi
tors will be held in Lepsig during the
whitsuntide holidays. May 26 and 27
To spare the Marathon runners the
strain of full Marathon course sc
close to the big race, trials for this
event will be held about May 1 ovel
