JOURNALISM IN RUSSIA. Running a newspeper in Russia is pre- ceninentlya risky operation. The Czee's GoVernment spends more on the press censorship than it does on echteatioe, and quite recently the stair of press veneers had been increased by eight. Cer- tainly the censor owes his ettlary in Russia. Last year 83 newspapers were suspended for periods amounting in all to thirtpone yertrs mut tell days; twenty-six papers Were forbidden to ac- cept tnlvertisements, and '250 editors lore dillehilly threatened with Siberia if ,...ey did tot »lend their ways.

For some days past now the special cablegrams from Japan have contained many references to a more or less mys- terious body of individuals styled the Elder Statesmen. In British administration there is no exact parallel to the Genre, or Elder Statesmen. The body was founded about seven years ago. It .consisted of those men who had. served their country well before the present administration came into force—in feet, when Japan was under a kind of feudal system. Those Who had become famous in war or finance or other political departments were formed into a council under • the new constitution.. This council is eon - voiced. by the Mikado at any critical time, and the members forming it give him advice as to what course or policy he -should adopt. Their decision, how- ever, has no weight over the contitu- tion; they give their advice, but it is REARING CHICKENS. .1•••••••••••• How the Farmers Can Make 1 Money With Their Hens.

When was thirty-five years old, I suffered severe backache and frequent bearing - down pains; in fact, I had womb trouble. / was very anxious to get well, and reading df the cures your Compound had made, decided to try it. I took only six bottles, but it built me up ad cured me entirely of all my troubres. My family and' relatives were naturally as gratified as I was. My niece had heart trouble and nervous prostration, and was considered incurable. She took your Vegetable Compound and it cured her in a short time, and she became well and strong, and her home to her great joy and her husband's delight was blessed with baby. know of a number of others who have been cured of different kinds of female trouble, and am satisfied thar your Compound is the best medicine for sick Women." --Mas, &AUBE= U.

As a general rule, the eggs t•ltat are incubated on the farm are the eggs from the poorer layera. A, taility-typ2 Plymouth rock co keret should b.' bought and placed at the head or the breeding pen. Jt great Improvement will be noticed in any flock of farm fowls ,by crossing with the Plymouth rook. The eggs for hatching should be kept in a, cool place -40 to 60 de - gram The chickens should not be hatched later than the middle of Juno, May -hatched chickens are pre- ferable. It is quite possible for al- most every Termer to increase the number of chickens reared With lilt - tie extra labor. 'Sitting hens should not be allowed to hatch chickens In any place they choose about the (erne buildinge. Tiny should be in one pen, set apart tor this purpose. The neat boxes should be made without n floor, and placed around the aides of the pen. Tiro or three shovelfuls or earth ebould be throwin into each nest box and a hollow, space scooped out for the eggs ; the earth should be cov- ered sparingly with straw. A. beard is required in front of the nest to corfine the lien at will. This nest will give outdoor conditions in an indoor pen. The sitting hens should be thoroughly dusted with Pelletier to kill the vermin. All of them ehould should be placed on the nest p and watered at the one time. The hene elsould be placed on he nests and closed in When feeding. It Is advis- able to start several hens together. The infertile eggs can then be tested out on the ninth day and onelor more of the hens reset. There le a great loss in farm -roar- ed chickens, caused by the mother hen having her liberty. 'The hen wan - dere through the wet grass, the elnekens follow her and be • conte chilled and the weaker ones die. This loss can be prevented by confin- ing the Ilona in a brood coop. It is more satisfactory to have a large brood coop that well be n, shelter during inclement 'weather. A packing box of three or four feet, each dimen- sioa, is none too large. The cover of the box can be used for .the floor. The box is reversed, open end on the ground, and an opening one foot high 10 made across ono side of the box ngainst the open ena. Two one inch bs two inch ciente are nailed on the two endo of the box at the ground the cover of the floor is, reduced In size so that' it; will sitde In on these elents. This allows the floor to bo removed for cleaning. The box should be covered with tar taper to make it water -tight and there should be a 10 by 14 inch pane of glass in the front. Title glass should, slide In cleats for ventilation. In front of the one foot opening at the ground 'there should bo a crate 15 inches high covered with laths, two inches apart, 1-1r, Inti cum ez oat, into th let crate 10 be fed and watered ; the chickens run through the laths. This form of coop will house safely one hen and 80 chiekenes The number of coops is thus reduced. The hen and chickens should be placed in a grass field. This will reduce the mortality due to the chickens being reared on in- fected ground around the farm build- ing% .1 number of • eases have been reported to the poultry disleion of chickens and turkeys dying because of feeding on ground previously in - tested by diseased fowls.
