CRISIS IN FAR EAST.
Russian and Jap Making Rapid Ccun'er
Moves in Checkered Game o.
Impending War.
Advices from St. Petersburg state
that in spite of the expressed hope of
the Russian authorities that the pres
ent crisis will be passed and that a
pacific solution of the Russo Japanese
negotiations will be reached, it is no
longer concealed tnat Russia is prac
tically prepared for eventualities. Mon
day the mobilization of the Manchu
rian reserves was announced.
It has been well known for months
that Russia has been steadily strength
ening her army and navy in tine Far
East to meet the preparation which
Japan was openly making. The avail
able warships were dispatcned to the
Far East and the last division which
left the Mediterranean a month ago is
now nearing its destination quietly,
but surely. It was necessary that
Russia’s preparations should keep pace
with those of her diplomatic adversary.
The feverish activity of Japan dur
ing the last few weeks naturally in
creased the distrust of her ultimate
intentions, and the Russian authorities
have been pushing their precautionary
measures with more vigor. It is under
stood that six or seven military trains
daily have been going east over the Si
berian road, and the charters of some
ships.’ cargoes for the Pacific have
been canceled because the water
Toute was considered too slow.
The authorities now feel that the
situation is secure should Japan reject
.Russia's proposition.
The Associated Press is assured that
the draft of Russia’s reply will be pa
cific and should ‘Tead” to a settle
ment. The Associated Press inform
ant redte rated what he said u few days
ago:
"We have conceded much already
and we are ready to concede more, but
some things we cannot grant. From
our standpoint the Manchurian ques
tion was settled by Russia’s circular
note to the powers recognizing all the
Chinese treaties. Why should Japan
demand more than the other powers?”
The Russian papers agree that the
treaty guarantees covering Manchuria
and permission for Japan to fortify
southern Korea, making a closed sea
of the sea of Japan, are impossible.
Japanese Not Idle.
The correspondent of The Lftndon
Daily Mail at Che Foo cables that he
has learned that the Japanese naval re
serves were mobilized last week and
that the first army reserve was partly
mobilized with great secrecy, the
troops arriving at their destinations
disguised as coolies.
Over 100 transports have; been re
quisitioned, the correspondent con
tinues, and 28 transports and 38 war
ships are lying at Saho, 25 miles north
by west of Nagasaki.
ADVICE TO GEORGIA FARYIERS
Given by Commissioner of Agriculture
Stevens Regarding Cotton Crop
Commissioner of Agriculture O. B.
Stevens, of Georgia, is of the opinion
that the price of cotton next fall
•will continue high. He thinks, how
ever, that the farmers should not allow
themselves to go in too heavy for cot
ton, and advises that they raise their
supplies at home.
In speaking of the situation Mr.
Stevens said:
•"There is every reason for believing
that the price of cotton will be high
next year, but while this is true, the
farmers of Georgia should no go in too
heavy for cotton and neglect their corn
and gran crops.
“The farmers of Georgia are in bet
ter condition now than at any time
since the war, and I believe they will
continue to be prosperous. Many ot
them bave money to loan and meat to
sell, and I would like to see this state
of affairs continue. If they have to
buy corn, however, I don’t think they
can make money, even if cotton was
bringing twenty cents.”
Mr. Stevens has just returned from
a trip through the southern section of
the state and he finds that a majority
of the people are well fixed, and that
they are satisfied with last year’s
work

CATCHING COLD
In ]the Beginning of Most VTinler Ail

There is no fact of medical whence better
established than that a teaspoonful of Pe
runa before each meal during the winter
season will absolutely protect a person from
catching cold. Now, if this is true (and
there is no doubt of it), thousands of lives
would be saved, and tens of thousands of
cases of chronic catarrh prevented, by this
simple precaution within reach of every
one.

spoonful of Peruna every hour will shortly
cure it, leaving no trace of it behind. After
chronic catarrh has become established, or
the first stages of chronic bronchitis or
consumption have been reached, it will take
much longer to effect a cure.
It seems strange that as well known and
well established as these facts are any one
should neglect to profit by them, and yet
no doubt there are many who pay little or
no attention to them and go on catching
cold, acquiring chronic catarrh, bronchitis
and consumption.
