Port Arthur siege described by Russian general and garrison
Commander Kartzow recalls Port Arthur’s desperate defense amid exhaustion and starvation. Generals argued over surrender while Gen Stoessel vowed to fight. Japanese forces under General Nogi and heavy bombardment wore the Russians down. The interview paints a brutal siege with scarce rations, bayonet fighting, and a lone potato compared to steak.

Macaroni Wheat Gains Ground in Western States
The durum macaroni wheat, introduced from Russia, shows rapid progress in Washington and other states. Yields reach 35 bushels per acre with some nearly doubling, a Walla Walla mill grinds the grain, and a carload of Hour is produced. Experts find the flour excellent, spurring acreage expansion and a promising market for eastern Washington farmers. Projections estimate 14 million bushels in 1904 with next year’s sowing four times the prior season, a promising mortgage lifter for semi arid farmers.

Five Years to Fortune from a Quiet North Dakota Claim
A penniless man moved to Kusasey county five years ago and filed a northern claim with stones and soil. He developed the land through scientific cultivation, built a home and barn, bought machinery and stock, and grew a thriving operation. After debts were paid, he had over 4090 in the bank and saved at least 210000 a year, far above urban salaries.
