brings it's results. Herds of COWS are
not allowed to wander; each COW is
hitched and allowed to Craze a little
portion until the portion is eaten
clean. Thus land is made to feed
a far larger number of COWS than
ours-fOr loose cattle trample and
destroy more than they eat Cows
are MIXED three times a day. At a
certain farm at Kolla-Kolla, each
COW has over it's stall tin plate
bearing its record as mixer and
breeder. At the end of the year the
COWS whose records are poor are dis
carded, while the calves of whatever
COWS have given rich and good milk
are kept for the farm. One COW on
this farm-by no means a show COW

a single year.
State aid to agriculture takes nu-
merous other forms besides the sup
plying of the services of experts.
There are the usual grants for agri-
cultural education, for premiums
and prizes at agricultural shows and
Ialrs. Ihere are numerous money
grants to voluntary organizations for
the Improvement of cattle, poultry,
etc., and to local and national agri-
cultural societies. Besides these,
there are various prizes, grants and
loans for the superior cultivation of
small holdings and to ambitious and
meritorious workers in diaries and
creameries who desire technical edu-
cation.
There are also Government loans
to those desiring to purchase small
holdings. These are made at per
cent. and the borrower repays the
original amount in small INSTALL
ments running through sixty years.
The Government also lends money to
neighborhOOd credit societies or CO.
operative banks, which lend again to
the farmers on favorable terms for
the purchase Of seeds, fertilizers, etc.
In starting cooperative creameries
and bacon-curing factories, the farm
ers are able to borrow from these
banks the full amount of money
needed to start their enterprises, on
the personal security of the men,
bers, each of whom assumes full liza
bility for all the debts of the con-
Germ, Jointly and severally." The
confidence that they thus manifest in
one another, the courage of the thrift
ty folk in assuming such "joint and
several liability" and the confidence
of the bankers in the business ability
of the farmers, all indicate very

land, Norway, Sweden, Germany, or
any other country on the continent.
This great advance is but an index
OF an equally great increase which
has taken place in their popular in
dustrial intelligence and efficiency,
and also of the development of fine
national spirit and social morality.
Their success has been wrought
from a poor soil under the stimulus
Of adversely. Denmark is a low
lying country between two cold
bodies of water-the Baltic sea and
the German ocean. The winters are
long, the growing season short. Much
of the soil is sandy and poor. The
Danes undertook cooperative bacon
curing-one Of their important in
dustries-only after Germany re-
fused to admit their live hogs. At
an earlier period they were forced
into dairy farming by the failure of
grain farming. The reasons for their
success may be roughly classified as
follows:
First-The extensive use made of
expert advice
Second-The granting of aid by
the State when the people have I'M
dertaken some worthy enterprise for
themselves.
Thlrd-ThorOugh systems of test
ing market products and of educat-
ing the producers.
Fourth-The wonderful develop
ment Of cooperative organizations
and the prevalence of the co-opera-
tive spirit
Fifth-The development among
the Danes of high degree of popu-
lar intelligence, a fine national spirit,
and social morality.
The Danish farmer often prefers
to seek advice from an expert in re-
gard to what many would consider
an ordinary farm matter.
For the breeding of live stock
there are three kinds of experts; for
Jutland cattle and sheep, for horses
and for red Danish cattle and sheep.
There is also consulting expert in
England.
If several farmers wish to purchase
bull that will improve their herds,
they ask advice of the Government
expert. Even in the breeding of
their hogs the individual farmer is
AIhC1y W dSh expert ADVICE. Inc
Government furnishes the services of
it's experts as readily as the farmers
avail themselves of them, but there
are not sufficient for the demand.
The people, through their co-opera-
tive organizations and declarations,
through their agricultural societies,
poultry societies, etc., secure expert
aid for themselves in many other
ways. The result of this practice is
evident in the rapid improvement of
their live stock and in the steady in
crease both in the quantity of milk
and the percentage of butter fat CIV
en- by cows. In a number of herds
the quantity of milk given annually
by each cow has in a few years been
increased 100 gallons or more. Even
the Frequently considered) disa-
greeable task of milking becomes
with them an art to be studied I'M
der an expert. Accordingly, men
who have had years of experience in
milking take lessons in the art of
milking according to the Hageland
method method which increases
the quantity of milk and the percent
age of butter fat. This reliance upon
the scientific method and the experts
advice is shown in the loyalty with
which the farmers adhere to the Sc
we're restrictions upon the individual,
often imposed by the creameries, as
to feeding COWS, handling milk and

Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.

SHANGHAI, September /, 1910
Japan. like the nations of the west,
is faced with the problem Of increas-
ing navy expansion. Some weeks ago
the Jill Shimpo of Toxic. which has
always been a stanch upholder of a
strong navy. declared that unless
Japan inaugurated a special program
Of construction, over and above the
ordinary one which has been calcu-
lated down to the year 1915. she will
find herself in 1917 unable to guaran-
tee her national honor. Although at
present she might congratulate herself
on the friendliness of her relations
with other nations, she must be pre-
pared to maintain her position in re-
gard to the equilibrium of the pow
ers"; and that she could not do unless
she was ready to spend an additional
$125.O00.000 to $150.0O0.00 on naval
construction within the next few
years. A few days later Baron Saka-
TAM, minister Of finance in the last
cabinet, expressed the opinion that
naval expansion was not a question OF
finance. but Of the very existence Of
the country.
At present. however, the calculations
seem to show that thirteen vessels OF
all kinds built and eight to be built con-
stitute the naval program of Japan
up to 1914 modest matter compared
with the gigantic programs OF Europe.
Even more modest are the naval esti-

Weighing the Opposing Theories.

we must assume that, when the statute
in question was passed. the legislature of
Massachusetts, was not unaware Of these
opposing theories, and was compelled, of
necessity. to choose between them. It
was not compelled to commit a matter
involving the public health and safety to
the final decision of court or jury. II
Is no part of the function of q court or
Jury to determine which one of two modes
was likely to be the most effective for the

That was for the legislative departing mt

the Constitution. Nor. in view of the
methods employed to stamp out the dis
ease of smallpox, can any one confidently
assert that the means prescribed by the
statute to that end has no real or SUBJ
stanttal relation TO the protection Of the
public health and the public safety. Such
an assertion would not be consistent with
the experience of this and other countries
whose authorities have dealt with the

many states by statutes making the vac

OF the more liberal pension legislation
recommended by the last annual encamp-

committee, Chief Van SAINT
said:
II regret that nothing was accomplish
ed. but 1t was no fault of the committee.
Congress would not pass any general PEN
sion legislation. However. some 5000
private pension bills were enacted. The
committee canvassed the matter indus
triously with senator's and representa-
tives. but to no purpose. The govern
ment was facing a deficiency In its reve-
nues and. retrenchment and the strictest
economy was the watchword. This was
the reason given for non-action. In my
Judgment. in view of the changed condi-
tons In our country's financial affairs, If
this encampment should again recommend
this measure 1t would pass.

ever stood for the recognition Of the serv-

of services-the ninety days man as well
