Geo. Orrock, late of Ortley Twp,
has moved onto a farm near Summit
and will engage in the dairy business.
He will supply the local demand for
milk by running a milk wagon.
c. Fl. Lien has just finished thresh-
ing his crop on the 7. E. Nelson place
in Blooming Valley Twp. He reports
a yield OF 80 bushels of oats per acre
on a 10 acre field, which is surely
pretty good. A piece of barley. that
was touched by hail went between %
n 80 bushels per acre.
Owing to the almost complete
stoppage of the milk supply the Sum
nit creamery has been compelled to
close down until spring. Buttermaker
Hansen tells us that he was getting a
fair supply of milk-the last weeks
run being IA tubs of butter-up to a
few days before closing down, when
everybody quit bringing milk. Prac-
Ideally all the patrons who quit said
that the bad weather and consequent
backward condition Of fall work rem
dered it impossible to spare the time
occupied in going to the creamery.
1t seems too bad the institution can
not be kept in operation the year
around.

THE FAMINE IN KwANG.sI PROVINCE
Consul General McWade Sends Another
Urgent Appeal for Help.

Washington. May 2S.-United States Consul Cen
erai McWade, at Canton. under date Of April T.
sent TO the State Department detailed report OF
the famine conditions in Kwang-si in support Of
his cabIed appeal for help. He produces a mass of
Information. which he declares 10 be trustworthy
from American missionary and native sources
showing the restitution and the consequent suffer
ing. which the consul general says are absolutely
appalling. He gays that the heads of the families
In their desperation were selling their children for
from 81 to IS each. yet many were the offerings
and few the purchases that not all could be sold
at this price. Mr.. McWade says that so heart
rendIng the appeals for aid that he had con-
tributed far bevond his means. and would have
written the famine increasing greatly in
severity. and thousands starving to death. In
village two hundred people persisted from
starvation and he said that unless relief
thousands and thousands would starve Whole
families subsisting q few ounces of rice a
day and eating herbs and leaves. Unless the rice
and other crops Of July, August and September
proved plentiful. the famine would be only slightly
aIleviated In conclusion Mr. McWade says:
The natives feel that the Americans have come
among them fol their and our mutual benefit, and
not their enemies to seize any of their lands
under any specious other pretences. That feel
ing is emphasized by the great charity of
relieve. and not to destroy, know religion creed
