REBELS AT KRONSTADT
NOW SUPPORT GOVERNMENT

The fortress of Kronstadt, which
guards Petrograd, is once more part
of the new Russian republic, having
surrendered Internationally to the
provisional government. The rebel
lion was a rash movement headed by
Russian boy student, and never re-
ally constituted menace to the ma
ton. ... ..
The local committee of the work
men and soldiers delegates at Kron-
stadt decided June l to assume con-
troll Of the great fortress and to re-
fuse recognition of the provisional
government. The government Of
ficials were removed. The secession
lists put forward program splitting
Russia up into great number of
self-governing communities and sent
missionaries out to try to persuade
neighboring towns to join them. The
Socialist ministers in the provision
al cabinet, M. Tseretelli and M. Sko-
belief, went to Kronstadt from Petro-
grad and endeavored to persuade the
seceders to abandon their plan. The
present surrender is apparently a
result of their arguments.
An official statement issued to-
day says General Alexieff was remov-
ed as commander in chief of the Rus
sian armies and placed on half pay
because he was not considered to
possess the energy, enthusiasm and
competence at the present juncture.

LIVE STOCK DISEASES
tuberculosis Is Most Common
and Widely Prevalent.
Simple Precautions by Which Owners
May Keep Ailments From Their
AnimaIs-Guard Against
Infectious Abortion.

From the United States Department Of
Agriculture.)
tuberculosis is the commonest and
most widely prevalent Of all contagious
diseases. There are many other in
fections, however, which are much
more easily spread, and to which the
body of the average man or animal
Is much less resistant. The explanation
Of these apparently inconsistent facts
Is to be found In the appearance Of
perfect health which victims of the dis
ease often possess long after they
have become active disseminators Of
the tuberculosis germ. 1t Is thus pos
sible for the disease to be introduced
into herds and to become firmly estab-
lished in them without the knowledge
of the owner.
Live stock can be protected against
this insidious disease by the practice
Of two rules, which may be stated as
follows:
(D. Never introduce an animal into
healthy herd or flock unless there
Is positive proof that 1t comes from a
healthy herd or flock.
(2) Consult your veterinarian re-
garding the special tests which can
be made to prove whether animals are
free from serious and common diseases
and make sure that no animals are
added to healthy herds unless these
tests, combined with a period of segre-
cation, show that they are free from
Infection.
Infectious Abortion.
In its insidious and chronic charac-
ter infectious abortion somewhat re-
sembles tuberculosis. The germs of
this disease may be spread by animals
that are apparently healthy, and pre-
cautions similar to those adopted for
tuberculosis should therefore be taken
to prevent its dissemination.
The essential cause of tuberculosis
is the tubercle bacillus. Unless this
germ is present there can be no tuber-
culosis. Furthermore, as far as we
know, the germ does not seem able to
grow anywhere but in the bodies Of its
victims, and 1t is not able to establish
itself in new victim unless the animal
is exposed to it repeatedly or for
relatively long periods Of time, or un-
der peculiarly unfayorable conditions.
Despite the prevalence Of the disease,
therefore, 1t is possible to guard
against 1t by doing away with the con-
ditions that favor its spread.
Unhyeenlc Conditions.
Unhygienic conditions prepare ami
mails for the development Of tuberculo-
sis in much the same manner as culti-
walton prepares piece of land for
the production Of crop. Nevertheless,
even under such conditions, tuberculo-
sis cannot develop without the tuber-
Gle bacilli any more than a crop can |
be produced in cultivated field with
out seed.
To prevent tuberculosis in live |
stock, therefore, the germs should be
kept away by the precautions already
outlined: First, prevent the introduc-
ton Of infectious animals into the herd
or flock; and, secondly, the surround
ings Of live stock should be such that
the animals are kept in sufficiently
good condition to resist the chance at
tacks Of the germ.

BEST CULTIVATION FOR CORN
Work Can Be Done Well With Narrow
Shoveled cuItivator--Light Har-
row Also ls Useful.

Shallow cultivation In q good seed
bed can be done well with narrow
shoveled cultivator or light harrow,
the teeth of which slant backward. In
field in which there are loose sods
that may prevent the young plants
from reaching the surface, the cult
vator is to be preferred to the har-
row. Narrowing corn after 1t Is up
always reduces the stand somewhat,
but In many cases 1t is good method
of saving labor. The narrowing should
be done on a bright afternoon when
the plants are somewhat wilted. They
ire less easily broken then.

evening at the Office Of Billy Niles
In the Elite building. The members
Of the Honolulu League, who applied
for admission into the Oahu-Service

and suggested q plan for the amalgar

]. e. Higgins suggested that the
league play games both at Athletic
park and MoiliiH field until such time
as II could be decided whether or not
Athletic park would pay. This fol-
lowed an argument regarding the adj
Instability Of playing at two grounds.
Il was argued that playing at Athletic
park as wen as Moiliili field on Sum
day would split up the crowds, and
as consequence the fan would be-
confused. and each park would make
only 9 small amount as compared to
