GRAND DUKE MADE REGENT Simultaneous Uprisings in Petrograd and Moscow Empress Placed Un der Guard Emperor Heeds Demand to Quit Soldiers Join Revolutionists and Two Statesmen Are Slain. I'etrograd, March 10. Czar Nicholas of Russia has abdicated and the Grand Duke Michael Alexundrovitch, his younger brother, has been named as regent of the empire. Nothing official regarding the dynas ty's future has been given out, but it is understood the Grand Duke Alexis, heir apparent, is to be recognized for mally when conditions become settled. Corrupt Ministry Ousted. The Russian ministry, charged with corruption and Incompetence, has been swept out of office. One minister, Alexander I'rotopopoff, head of the interior department, is re ported to have been killed, and the other ministers, as well as the presi dent of the imperial council, are un der arrest. A new national cabinet is announced, with Prince Lvoff as presideut of the council and premier, and the other of fices held by the men who are close to the Russian people. No Peace Movement. The duma joined hands in the revolt which aimed at the reactionary con duct of the war and the ineffective dis tribution of food. Its success means a more aggressive part in the war and is said to put an end to German hopes for a separate peace with Russia. The British and French ambassadors here already have established official business relations with the new cabi net and with the executive committee named by the duma. It was this com mittee that forced the czar's abdica tion. Czar on Vay From Front. London, March 10. A Reuter dis patch from Petrograd says that the emperor Is expected to arrive at the Tsarskoe-Selo palace and that several regiments with artillery are hastening to the same place. The Grand Duke Nicholas is report ed to have reached the Russian capi tal. The dispatch says that he will probably take command of the troops. According to information received here the Russian people have been most distrustful during recent events of the personal influence of Empress Alexandra. She was supposed to ex ercise the greatest influence over Em peror Nicholas. The Empress Alexandra, before her marriage to the emperor of Ru4a in 1S04, was the German Princess Alix of Hesse-Darmstadt. A popular revolution lias been suc cessful and the government of Russia rests temporarily with a self-appoint- I ed committee of the duma. i After three days of battle, in which ! the majority of the 30.000 troops in Petrograd mutinied and supported the revolutionists, calm has returned. The czar's abdication was in com pliance with the urgent demand of the committee of the duma, which notified j him that upon his assent depended ; the fate of the dynasty. Troops Back the Duma.

Renter's Petro grad correspondent sent the foHowlng dispatch concerning the Russian revo lution under date of March 14: "Your correspondent has been In the streets both ufght and day for the last 'hree days.

V. Nekrasotf, vice president of the duma. Controller of State M. Godueff, deputy from Kazan. Control Is Complete. That control by the new government is complete is undoubted. Telegrams from generals commanding at the vari ous fronts have displayed an astonish ing unanimity of support of the new order. Demonstrations against the govern ment have been frequent during the last few weeks. The attempted pro roguing of th duma fanned the 11 res. which spread rapidly from class to class and from civilians to troops. Sunday it broke forth in flame. Panic-stricken, the government or dered the mounted patrols to fire on the people. The patrols refused, and a battle between the police and the troops followed, regiment after regi ment joining the revolutionists, seizins and throwing the heads of the secret police into prison. For three days open battle raged in the streets of Petrograd. Strikes in J factories and on street cars wexe called in sympathy with the revolu tion. Wednesday the week's nightmare of revolution ended more suddenly than it had begun. Planks were pulled from windows, doors were unbarred, factories, stores and banks reopened. 500 Slain in Revolt. The only evidence that a revolution had been fought and won was the smoldering ruins of a few public buildings. The cost in life is unknown. It is believed, however, that it did not exceed ."(H). Magical and sudden as was the transition from the old to the new, it is believed here that its results will be almost immediately visible in the in stitution by the now Russia of a more vigorous and efficient prosecution of the war against Germany. Appeal Made to Czar. The duma telegraphed the principal generals at the front to use their influ ence with Emperor Nicholas in sup port of the (luma's appeal for a popu- ar government, says Reuter's Petro grad correspondent. General Rrussiloff, commander in chief of the armies on the southwest ern front, replied: "Your telegram received. 1 have fulfilled my duty to my emperor and my country." Gen. Nicholas V. Ruzsky, member of the supreme military council, replied: "I have carried out your request." M. Rodzianko, president of the duma, sent the following telegram to Emperor Nicholas : "The situation is becoming worse. Measures must be taken immediately, for tomorrow it may btt too late. The hour has arrived when the fate of the country and of the dynuyty is being decided." M. Chtchegiovitoff, president of the council of empire, was arrested in his home and temporarily held in the min isterial room of the duma. A telegram received by the naval attache of the Russian embassy in Paris reported that the railways and public services in Petrograd had re sumed work. The revolution, which evidently was carefully prepared, broke out simul taneously in Petrograd and Moscow. The garrisons, which, obeyed the in structions of the revolutionaries, im mediately took possession of these cities after comparatively little light ing and equally small amount of de struction of property. Petrograd Bridge Blown Up. In Petrograd one bridge was blown up. Strict military rule prevails and the army' has the situation so well in hand that it is not expected adherents of the late government will be able to offer any serious resistance, even ir t remote provinces. After receiving word of the revoh j tion, it is reported, Emperor Nichol as returned to the palace, where he ar rived on Wednesday. The following details of the rev jlu tion have been given to the press f roni , a source usually well informed on Russian affairs : "The soldiers refused to act again. t the crowd which started trouble uh'n it heard of the uk; ise issued by t.m peror Nicholas proroguing the di'ma.

The drawing shown here illustrates how one of the standard milking ma chines draws the milk from the cow's teat. Any method of drawing the milk frpm the udder down through the teat also tends to draw blood from the veins of the udder down into the smaller veins of the teat. It is necessary that something shall keep massaging this blood back from the teat, so that it will continue in circulation. The comfort- i able unwnrd soueeze does pxaerlv this. Thjs gqueeze is ,ujustable, so that the Machine in Operation. operator, by turning a little lever, an give a heavier squeeze to a big-turlted cow and a lighter squeeze to a, 31'nall- tented cow. Thus each cow p cf just the squeeze needed in her i'j'lividual case a feature that makes rah row give her maximum. j When the calf milks, its forigue has a squeezing action on th 4eat, the same as your tongue does if. you place your finger in your moutl 1 ajad suck it. This squeezing action of the calf? tongue keeps the blood iu the teat in circulation. If the calf stopped squeez ing, just sucked each s .walow, it would slowly suck so much bltiod down into the veins of the tftthat the teat would appear red ai ,d rwollen. Farm ers Mail and Creez ?.

The less a fow is disturbed at far rowing time tfie better, and for this reason she should toe kept separate from the otfier sirine. While some one should be on hand, unless she needs assistance, It Is best to keep away from her. jit it does become necessary to help do it as quietly as possible. As th' pigs are not able to take much inilk, the flow should not be f Simulated for a few days. Give the sor plenty of water, as she is In feverisii condition, but take the chill off of It if the day is cold.

In two weeks' time she should be on full feed, which should consist of a good, laxative, milk producing ration. There Is no better way of feeding the pigs than through the mother, so feed the sow for the greatest amount of milk. I ARRANGE QUARTERS FOR RAM 1 His Rough Treatment of Ewes Is Source of Great Loss to Farmer Keep Him Separated. Allowing the rSVi to stay with the ewes through the winter and spring until lambing or shearing time is not always the best practice. It's good for the ram in case the ewes are well fed ; lwe will get the lion's share, occu py the space for three ewes at the trough and rack, and grow fat and abusive. He will choose to eat where the ewes have peacefully lined them selves up rather than take an open place where feed is untouched, writes R. A. Hayne in National Stockman and Farmer. He stalks about and bunts the ewes out of his way on all occasions. His rough treatment, bunting his ! wa' and crowding up to feed racks is a source of abortions and premature births. Sheep values justify every care to Increase numbers and values of next year's lamb crop. Better arrange to put his ramship in other quarters than the ewe fold. That doesn't mean to isolate him in some small, dark, damp corner of the barn basement or to exile him to a back lot without shelter or regular feed. ERADICATE ALL OX WARBLES Hides Are Lessened in Value and Milk Production Decreased by Pres ence of Grubs. When you find small lumps on the j 5ack of an aDimal with round open ings in them, squeeze them and the grub that burrows under the hide will be found. These are ox warbles. Kill them, for they are one link in the life cycle of the ox warble fly. Hides are reduced in value from 1 to 2 cents a pound by the presence of ox warbles. Flesh is sometimes so damaged as to be unfit for sale. Milk production is lessened by the presence ! next summer. SUBSTITUTE SH.AGE FOR HAY Can Be Safely and Profitably Done in Rations for Horses and Mules, Says Missouri Station. SUage can be safely and profitably substituted for a part of the hay in the ration for work horses and mules t the rate of two pounds for one pound of hay, is the conclusion reached by the Missouri station after two years' trials. I HORSE CARE IN WET WEATHER First Scrape Animal, Then Blanket Him, Giving Good Rubbing Keep Legs Warm and Dry. When the horse comes in wet with rain, first scrape him, then blanket him, and rub his head, neck, loins and legs. If the weather is cold put on an ectra blanket in 20 minutes. Change the wet blanket when the horse dries. It is important to have the legs wan j tnd dry. 1 t.fe:aMtBmwIIW:-y.'.V'.-:-'-.-.. ' 1 WOMAN!
