Japs Study Agricultural Situation.
Realizing the Importance Of the
conditions in the Great Northwest
and the necessity Of any public Of
fetal becoming acquainted with
the problem which confronts the
citizens of that part of the United
States, Mr.. Matsubara, Imperial
Consul to Chicago is in the city on
an extensive trip Of investigation.
Mr.. Matsubara is accompanied by
Y. Sugita student of economies
at the University of Chicago who
is taking number Of photographs
and securing information Of value
regarding the agricultural situa-
tion.
Mr.. Matsubara is comparatively
new to America having arrived in
Chicago but month ago as sue
cessor to Mr.. Shimizu who former
ly held the position of consul.
The trip thru this part Of the
country is primarily to enrich his
personal knowledge of the condi-
tions which exist and which he
feels that in his present condition
he should known.
Mr.. Sugita, who has been pursu.
ing his studies at the university of
Chicago for the past two years and
who is deeply interested in the
country, when seen by a Reporter
representative said: II had little
idea of the magnitude of the north
west. While I have made condi-
tions in this country special
study at the university I find that
the statements in the text and re-
ference books give but small
idea of what the country really is.
We are on this trip as a sort of a
vacation but with the intention of
getting all the information possi-
BILE regarding the country. Dur
ing the Japanese War we were
obliged to get a large amount Of
wheat from the United States just
as England and other Europeon
countries are doing to day. We
have not extensive farming lands
in Japan and there may come a
time when we will have to depend
on America for our wheat supply.
Realizing this Matsubara is desir-
GUS of making thorough study of
the agricultural conditions in this
country. We have been in Kan
sas and Iowa where we looked over
the corn lands and are now on our
way into Canada and Montana,
probably visiting the Yellowstone
Park on our return.
Il cannot express my delight
with the country out here. l
think that few people even stu
dents Of this cointy's conditions,
realize what opportunities exist in
the northwest, I know I never did
but 1 do now"
Both gentlemen are fluent con-
versationalists in the English Ian
guage and are charming young
gentlemen to meet. During their
stay in Minot they kept open
house to the Japanese in the city
and many called and paid their re-
CARDS. They leave tonight for
Williston stopping at Tiago where
they understand there are several
Japanese farmers. -Minot Report

THE FAMOUS BYRKE
SIMPLIFIED SHORTHAND.

This system Of shorthand was
first copyrighted in 1897 by Henry
Edward Byrne. 1t has, during the
short space of ten years, found it's
way into almost every English
speaking country on the globe, 1t
is taught in many of Americas
leading commercial colleges, and
used by of Americas noted re-
porters. The system is founded
entirely on new principles never be-
fore used in the art of shorthand
writing, which enables it's author
to produce q system that can be
learned in less than one half the
time of any other system, written
with much higher rate of speed,
and read with greater accuracy. AS
many expert writer's Of other sys-
TENS have said, after thoroughly
examining it and testing it, cit is
the marvel Of the stcnographic
age" Many large business con
Germs prefer writer's of the Byrne
Simplife1, from the fact that the
Byrne writer's can take dication
just as fast as they are mind to
give it to them, and read it back
accurately with a high rate of
speed, a thing seldom done with
other systems.
The Athens Business College of
Athens, Ga, has the exclusive
right to teach the system in this
section. Those who desire to be-
come expert stenographers iii al
most half the time and half the OK
pense they could learn one of the
other systems in another school,
should write the Athens Business
College for catalog and full partic-
ulars of this wonderful system.

After Twenty-Five Years.

"For twenty nine years | have
been at intervals a great sufferer
from rheumatism," writes James
Hyde, of Becbe, Ark. "Dpring
that time ] used gallons of various
kinds and oils, but got very little
relief. The attacks were SO bad
that was often confined to my bed
helpless for weeks and months att
time.
'Not long ago, while suffering
from a severe attack, q bottle OF
Sloan's Liniment was sent to me
for trial. My surprise was great
when l found it gave me instant
relief, and / Immediately ordered
two large bottles. | have used
about half of one fifty cent bottle,
and feel so we'll that / want every
body afflicted as | was to know
what SIoan's Liniment has done
for me, and / shall always have q
feeling of gratitude for the man
who sent me that sample bottle. "

Mere About The Baptist College.

Rev. Mr.. Oxford returned from
his trip to Winder, Auburn and At
lanta. In last Monday mornings
mail Mr.. Oxford received Il letter
asking him to accept the financial
agency Of the Perry Rainy College
now in operation with over 200
students. This school is located
at Auburn Ga. 45 miles north OF
ATLANTA on the Seaboard Il. H..
In answer to this letter Mr., Oxford
visited the school to look into the
situation. While there the Trus-
tees met and elected him as their
financial representative. BY the
request of Mr.. Oxford the matter
was referred to the educational
board of the Ga. Baptist conven-
ton that met in Atlanta Jan. 9th,
This board has in charge all OF our
denominational colleges and secon-
Diary schools that they consider is
wisely located and appeals have
been made for the Board to receive
them. The application was made
by the Perry Rainy College to the
educational Board to come under
their auspicies and ask for the IN
dorSment of Mr.. Oxford as their
agent. The board decided it nee
issary to complete the endowment
for Mercer Universally therefore
they elected Mr.. Oxford to repre-
sent Mercer University in securing
funds to complete the endowment.
Mr.. Oxford accepted the position
and commenced his work Jan. 10th
with the promise to the trustees to
take up the work for the Perry
Rainey School just as soon as the
Mercer endowment is completed.
The educational board of New York
City proposed to Mercer University
if she would raise 1925, 1000 that
they would give $4,000. This
will give Mercer 100000 endow-
ment which promises the perpetu-
.tary and maintenance of the lnsti-
tuition and the education of thous-
ands of struggling poor boys in
this country. Mr.. Oxford states
that it will take S115, 900 more to
complete the required amount.
He hasn't as yet decided where he
will locate his family. Having his
heart fixed on the school enterprise
between here and OcilIa he feels
rery much gratified to know
