Poor Methods Of the ceiestiais Bring
About Poor Results.


Experienced and scientific poultry
raising Of the United States would per-
haps be shocked at the methods adopt
el by the Chinese in this industry In
the Orient. Consul-General Rodgers
Of Shanghai has recently reported to
the Department Of Commerce and La
Dor the methods adopted by the Chi
nese poultry raisers. He writes:
While the Chinese are perhaps the
most successful poultry raisers in the
world, according to natural methods,
they are also undoubtedly the most
economical in the business. The for
cigner, seeing the immense numbers
of ducks. chickens and geese Of the
Of the countryside, naturally assumes
| that large amounts Of grain or other
poultry food must be consumed. Yet
investigation reveals the fact that the
! Chinese consider the fowl perfectly
able to pick up living without much
assistance on their part, and as con-
sequence herding is practiced, each
flock being kept on the move, as sheep
are on a range. 1t is true that at
some periods of the year the fowls are
fed, but the food given them would be
| considered chaff in other countries and
is practically worthless. The natural
result of this is very poor poultry, but
that is the rule and standard in nearly
all China. 1t is an absolute fact. more
over, that the cleaning Of the paddy
fields by the fiocks nf ducks, which
often contain several hundred, is a
distinct benefit to the Chinese farmer.
AS in all other methods of life, the
poultry-raising process is another won
derful exhibition of the marvellous
economy of the Chinese. Indeed. 1t
may be said that the frugality Of the
Chinese in such industry, as compared
with the prodigality of others. is an
excellent illustration by which to
measure the radical difference be-
tween the Chinese and all other races
in the production of wealth. In view
Of these statements China can not be
considered promising field for the
exploitation Of American poultry foods,
unless there should come a great In
crease IN the value of the product
and a reversal of established CUSTOM
neither Of which is likely to occur.-ID-

1t is not uncommon for diamond
to explode soon after it reaches the
surface; some have been known to
burst in the pockets of the miners or
when held in the warm hand, and The
loss is the greater because large stones
are more liable to explode or fly in
pieces than small ones. Valuable
stones have been destroyed in this
way, and it is whispered that cum
ming dealers are not averse to allowing
responsible clients to handle or carry
in their warm pockets large crystals
fresh from the mine. BY way Of safe
guard against explosion some dealers
imbed large diamonds in raw potato

That grope into the future for a light;
