Chinaman of Low Origin Said to Be

Is a Chinese or Confucian buriat

spy during the RusSo-Japanese war.
For several months Ipak has had
working quarters in the Kremlin, and
has. a palace in Moscow, where he
keeps up great state and parades his
four Christian wives on Sunday in
gilded carriages. The orthodox COM
munists bitterly criticize Ipak and his
ways, and accuse him of having ac-

1t is a well-known fact that capacity
is one of the essentials of good
dairy COW and in order to develop this
characteristic the calf must be kept
growing from the very beginning. A
stunted calf will never recover from
the handicap. The calf should be in
duced to begin eating grain and hay
at as early date as possible and
there should always be an abundance
of the hay accessible. ROughage de-

German Outlook

outcome of peace negotiations. Alto
gether, therefore, the conclusion was
reached that Germany Is in far
worse position than Is believed by
Americans at home.
The German outlook as the new year
opens for business, disclOses but few
factors that make for confidence. One
good factor, however, appears on the
surface; namely, what seems to be a
more reasonable attitude of the labor
ing people. The last great strike here,
that of the metal workers which end
ed about three weeks ago, is thought
to have exhausted the capacity of the
Berlin workmen to wage any more big
strikes this winter. 1t was so unwisely
begun and carried on by the leaders
that the radical elements have been
somewhat discredited. Saner counsels
are, therefore, expected to prevail in
the Berlin labor organizations during
this winter.
A greater willingness to work Is also
reported from most sections of the
country. There is still considerable

FERTILITY IN DEAD LEAVES
Contain Large Amount Of Potash and
Arc Useful as Mulch or Fertll-
izer for Garden.

Because leaves contain relatively
large amounts of potash, chemists at
the Ohio Experiment Station point out
the economy Of using leaves as a
mulch or fertilizer for the garden,
rather than burning them in the
streets or cutters. They show that
100 pounds Of leaves are worth about
SO cents for their fertilizing value.
When leaves are burnt the ash still
contains considerable amount Of fer
tilizing materials; but as the ashes
are generally swept away by the wind
or washed away by the water, their
value is lost. To secure the best re-
suits from leaves as fertilizer, 1t is
best to pile them In the garden and
let them furnish mulch for the
ground during the winter; then they
may be spaded in the spring and In.
corporated with the soil.
