The text of the communication is

full speed when warning shot was
fired across her bows and it denies
the allegation of the Italian govern

after she had come to a standstill and
that other shots were fired at life
boats and at<persons swimming in the

Journal-Press (14): St. Cloud is to

ital stock will be 100000.
There are several sites in view, but
the definite selection will not be de-
termined for few days.
Under the modern process OF max
ing ice deep wells are sunk, from 200
to 500 feet, so that the water will be
both pure and cold: The colder the
water, the less expense in converting
it into ice. The process OF freezing is
by condensing ammonia, and then let
ting it expand, and strong brine being
pumped around the pipes which
reaches temperature close to zero,
and the ice is frozen in cans. The
claim is made that the ice is abso-
lutely pure and can be safely used for
all purposes.
The price will probably De no cheap
er than natural ice, but it is contend
ed that it's purity will find it a ready
market.
The cost of freezing the ice artifi-
cially is about 20 cents a ton. The
plant will be of cement.

TAKING CARE OF THE YOUNG
COLT

November, with it's colt shows in
Minnesota, is starting discussions as to
the best care Of the colt. From Lake
Park, which held colt show Novem-
Der 6, comes the question whether it is
more essential that colt be given the
best care during its first, second or
third year, and whether contest
among yearlings and 2-year-olds would
be the best method of developing bet
ter horses. In answer to this general
question, J. s. Montgomery, animal
husbandman in charge Of horses at Uni
versity Farm, st. Paul, makes this
statement:
"Proficient judges at colt shows do
not place emphasis on excessive fitting,
but rather look for evidences that a
colt has been fed for development.
|Rufding it, as colt, does not help
development, but rather binders it. A
colt should be kept growing without u
halt from the time Of it's birth until it
is three years old. Consequently the
suggestions for yearling and 2-year-old
classes at colt shows is a good one.
"Colts should be fed so as to be 4.ept
in good flesh, but under conditions
which will admit of plenty Of exercise
at all times. Care should be taken not
to lose the milk fat This loss will be
felt in the first years development,
and can never be regained.''
