Getting closer to china.

Nothing is SO convincing as
ocular demonstration. Therefore
some of the people of New York
City have been revising, to some ex-
tent, their opinion of the Chinese
nation since a big armored warship
flying the dragon flag has been at
anchor on Riverside Drive. This
big cruiser Is apparently as well
equipped for fghting and as we'll Of
dcered and manned by Chinese as
the averages naval vessel OF any
country - - =,

C1evelan Leader, it may be we'll to
call attention to, the. fact that the
Chinese government has decided to
devote the. refunded balance OF the
Boxer. indemnity fund to the edu-
cation of the pick of her - young
men. in, America The Chinese are
beginning to build railroads and
factories on modern plans and to
develop mines. Their country needs
men Of technical training. to take
charge of its work and evidently
they know where to get the best OF
that training.
China has begun to wake up in
earnest. 1t will be long time in
making the progress achieved by
Japan. but it is surely and irresist-
IDLY on the way. In years to come
the Chinese empire is almost certain
to be one of the great world powers.
1t will be no loss to this country that
during China's struggles to cast on
the shackles that have bound her
down for centuries it has given her
q friendly hand. America has
steadfastly opposed foreign agrees
sion in china and has further proved
its friendly spirit by refunding part
OF the Indemnity awarded on ac-
count of the Boxer uprising.

Consernntion of coal

The wastefu1 cultivation OF the
soil and the reckless destruction Of
the forests are not especially serious
matters, because at any time the
community, individually or collec-
lively, can stop the waste. Twenty
or thirty years will produce new for
ests, and every farmer working in
dividualIy and in his own interest
may increase his harvest per acre
cultivated.
But so far as is known, mineral
production. Is not going on, points
out the Philadelphia Record. Mo-
where in the world do the geological
conditions exist fSr,the reproduction
OF coal, oil and metallic ores. If
those processes were going on they
would require for completion a
period Of time so long in comparison
with all the time that human his
tory and tradition know of that it
amounts prScticalIy to infnity.
We do not suppose that all the
secrets of nature have been probed.

Lor a fancy price. 1t is a temptation
to pack highly coIored fruits of the
Ben Davis type in boxes and attempt
to sell them to innocent buyers as high
quality apples, but this is short sight
ed policy for the prices we get in the
future will depend largely upon either
our reputation or our notoriety in the
market.
The boxes are made in two sizes so
as to adapt themselves to all shapes
and sizes Of fruits. The STANDARD"
box is 1Ohx111zx1s1A inches, while
the Special" is 1Ox11x2O inches in
side measurement. The ends are
made of one piece of wood q inch In
thickness, the sides are also one piece
wood e inch in thickness, while the
tops and bottoms are OF two pieces q
inch thick.
To enter into the details Of the pack
ing methods is impossible at this time
because of lack of space, but during
the month OF September the College
of Agriculture will conduct packing
schools in localities where growers
are anxious to try box packing.
II the box pack is the ideal carrier
for fancy fruit the barrel Is also an
excellent package for that great bulk
of fruit known as cooking apples.
These are purchased in quantities and
for a relatively smaller price than the
dessert fruits, hence they must be put
up in larger packages and at less eX-
pense. For this purpose the barrel
will probably never be displaced.
Although attractiveness is not SO
vital factor IN the selling of barreled
fruit as it is in boxed fruit, still ex-
perience teaches US that 1t is well
-. -
make the barrel as neat and attractive
as possible. A clean and tidy barrel
always indicates careful packer and
presupposes good fruit and an honest
pack. The face end of barrel isI
always opened for inspection and this
should be packed with care. If the
fruit is tender or very ripe an excel
sior pad should first be placed in the
bottom of the barrel. Lacking this,
corrugated paper pad issthe next best
hing. II an extra fancy touch is de

TO Prevent Chinese Floods.


The present hood In the Yangtze
river, IN China with the frightful
loss OF life and property which It
has caused, makes especially timely
the recent action of the American
Red Cross In sending TO China an
expert engineer for the purpose OF
studying the best means Of prevent
ing the hoods which repeatedly have
caused such awful Devastation in
that country. This engineer, Mr. e.
D. Jameson, reached China in july
and has been given q cordial well
come and all necessary assistance by
the Chinese government. AS Mr..
Jameson formerly lived sixteen
years in China his familiarity with
customs and conditions gives him a
Thorough preparation for his present
importan mission.
By the terms of its federal char
ter the Red Cross is charged with
the duty of trying to prevent as well
as relieve distress caused by disas-
ter. In this instance the salary and
travelling expenses of Mr.. Jameson
are borne by the Red Cross, while
the Chinese government provides
for all other expenses. Most of the
great Chinese disasters which have
80 frequently shocked the, world
have been in the form of floods, or
famines resulting from the destruc-
ton of crops by foods. The terri
bic famine for the relief Of whose
sufferers the world was called upon
to give, last winter was caused in
this way. 1t would seem that here
is one of the most striking oppor-
tunities ever Afforded for demon
strating the value of preventive as
compared to relief measures.

rhey Forget the ohiIdren.

Richard L. Ga1lienne, the poet OF
the matched brow, following in the
footsteps of Upton Sinclair, is airing
his views OF marriage and divorce
after airing his domestic complica-
lions first. and the Pittsburg Ca
zette- Times thus comments upon the
case:
This is a cheap and easy way to
acquire publicity until the public
gets tired of it. Who will be the
next author to bid for notoriety by
rushing to the altar or the divorce
court? None appears to be exempt,
neither the realist who revels in the
abattofr nor the poet who mounts
upon his Pegasus to the peaks OF
Parnassus.
Mr.. LIE Gallienne-whose name
some envious delators say. is really
GaIlon-has long been known as the
American poet of passion. the mas
cuiine Ella Wheeler Wilcox. He
started in by editing ,Hazlitt's Liber
Amoris, the one blot on Hazlitt's lit
erary fame A few years later he
wrote ~The Quest OF the Golden
Girl" which might have been called
''The Pursuit of a Petticoat-" Since
then he has busted himself largely
with embellIshing anciet love stories
for modern consumption, mixing
Omar and Sappho, and getting mar
ried. His trip to the altar with Mrs
Irma Perry is the third, his first
wife having died and his second hav-
ing secured a divorce. AS he is only
forty-fve, this is very good rec
ord.
1t is not, however, Mr.. LIE CALI
enne's amatory publications nor his
matrimonial vicissitudes that the
public Is interested lin Just at pres
emit, but rather the extraordinary
theory of marriage and divorce
which he promulgates in connection
there&itR. He believes that married
people should have right to get I'M
married. whenever fancy dictates
without giving the reason to either
state or church. which to his mind
have no right to interfere publicly
In personal matters of the heart.
But IL people did this, how could
they get their names and-ptctpres
into the public prints?
Mr.. LIE GaIlienne and the rest OF
his school forget one important ele-
ment in marriage which our present
marriage laws are framed to include
the child. It is the protection OF
the child and OF the mother that the
sacred tie insures. To theorizers 1t
never seems to occur that other fam
lilies have children. If it were not
for them, everything might be diff
ferent. There is nothing, however
to keep the Sinclairs and LIE CALI
ennes from migrating to some island
where there are neither churches
nor court houses.
