ELAD1VoSTOk. Feb. 25.-At.acks by
certain ncwspa pcrs on the attitude of
the American troops in Eastern ST.
tempting to arouse Russian sentiment
discord between the Americans and the
mel Horny ID. Styer. OF the American
army.
Tho attacks were based on the fact
that the Americans had given protec-
ton at Khabarovak to 1900 Cossacks,
who had mutinied against General Kali
mikoG, their commander.
An alleged wireless dispatch from
Funadashl (near Tokyo, reproduced in
the Nestnik, says that only tho pres
encc of the Japanese troops at khaba-
rovak prevented part OF the troops
joining the mutinccrs.
The Daluy NoStok. the organ Of Gen.
cral kalmikof, declares that the
mutiny was arranged in territory I'M
der American control. and that Amcr!-
can soldiers took part in the plans.
II refers to the general attitude of
the Americans toward the Russians a.
one OF arrogance and condensation.

Of kalmikoff's Cossacks, on the claim
that the equipment of the Cossacks
belonged to the Japanese. Up to tho

PHOTO SHOWS BURIAL
OF CAPTAIN LEWIS
PARENTS SEND FOLDER TO
FRIENDS--RECEI LETTER
FROM SUPERIOR OFFICER.

Friends of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred w
Lewis of Brighton Park have lately
received from them brochure con-
tanning an official photograph of the
burial in France Of their son. Captain
Lee c. Lewis, July 81 last year. on
the south bank of the Marine, near
Chateau Thierry, on the west side of
the road leading from Etampes to
Cherry.
The folder tells how Captain Lewis
was wounded and relates that Miss
Elizebath Parks Hutchinson sang
abide With Me" and Lead Kindly
Light" at the funeral, which was car
ried out in the usual military form
by the Red Cross chaplain, an Epis
copal churchman. The photograph,
which is pasted in the folder, shows
group of soldiers about the open
grave, with the clergyman and Miss
Hutchinson.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lewis have just re-
ceived letter from Colonel Troy H.
Middleton of the 47th infantry regi-
ment, who was major at the time and
for whom Captain Lewis was acting
as adjutant when he was wounded, at
10 O'Clock on the morning of July
30, when he was carrying a message
from the Major to Lieutenant Farm
ham, commanding Company A of the
same regiment. The Colonel's letter.
addressed to Mr.. Lewis, reads:
"Your letter of April 9Th received.

The commission man could not be

Among so many dealers il is not sur

.. Know your market. From your
carefully selected agent learn the
needs of the market, the most desir-
able varieties to raise. proper con-
tainers in which to pack and ship,
style of pack most desired. the use of
labels or brands, proper amounts
and time of shipment. and local pref

in Chicago and for brown eggs in

ket demands rather than to force
your own ideas as to what the trade
ought to consume.
3. Make regular shipments. In
stead of making the city commission
district the dumping ground for what
your local dealers will not buy, keep
your city agent regularly supplied
with what his trade will take, there

4. Keep each other informed.
Early in the shipping season the
farmer should give his agent a care
full estimate of what may be expect
ed and no material changes in the
quantity of the regular shipment
should be made, unless prompt notice
il given the agent in order that he
may secure purchasers in case Of in
crease or arrange to care for his reg

meet requirements. Successful ship
pers make frequent use of the tele-
graph or long -distance telephone to
keep agents posted as to changes in
shipments. The agent should also
be expected to keep the shipper in
formed as to any changes in the re-
quirements of the market.
5. Avoid frequent changes in
agents. Some shippers prefer to di-
vide their shipments each day among
Numerous commission merchants in
the same market. While it may be
wise under certain conditions to
check one agent by the sales of an
other the most successful consignor
seems to be the one who selects an
agent with great care and then sticks
to him, cooperating with him in
every possible way and carefully
scrutinizing all settlements. The
honest agent is glad to do his part
in such teamwork and welcomes
the most Cxacting examination of his
methods.

Business that is spasmOtiic,,
careless, or otherwise not depend
able,. is not profitable. Some
farmers send their produce to
market on consignment without
any previous notice to the com
mission merchant and in such
cases the latter has no opportunity
to prepare for a satisfying sale.
Some farmers take no pains in
making shipments regularly SO as
to enable the merchant to build up
profitable demand for the pro-
ducts.
In justice to himself rs well az
