FAMOUS SOY BEAN

Man Who Has Experience Tells

ten equal instalments. with interest

prietor OF this farm rents large

The Japanese rice farm third in size
is ten miles from Beaumont, In the
town of Fannett The proprietor OF
this farm was banker and wealthy
land owner in Japan. Having heard
of tho wonderful opportunities offered
for rice culture in Southern Texas, he
decided to come to America and try

The Japanese In Texas as group
havo brought more wealth into this
country than they have sent out. Very
Few of them have made large sums
of money. and the major part that has
been mado has been returned to tho
farm in the way of Improvements and
live stock. In this way they are in
oreasinS their investments in this
country. Comparing this group OF peo-
pie with other foreigners. the japanese
are found to be far superior to any
other colonists in the South as far as
land owned and heavily capitalized
farm enterprises are concerned.
Standard of Living.
The clothing worn hy the Japanese
men and women is not unlike that of
their American neiShbors, except that
sandals instead OF shoes are worn in
field work and are left outside the
Kitchen door While the wcarcr is
within.
On the farms purchased by the Jap
anese til houses were already built,
and the Japanese have done little to
more inclined to repair and build new
barns and warehouses tnan they are
TO repair or improve their own homes.
The majority of the houses are poorly
kept, and dirt and confusion are every
where apparent. Many OF the houses
are inhabited by men only, and the
absence of women may in measure
account for this lack of good house
keering. But even in some of the
houses where the housewife is found
the same conditions exist, leading to
tho impression that the japanese are
not moro orderly or efficient home
makers than some OF the South Euro
pean immigrants
The houses are provided with very
little furniture, boxes being used III
many instances i'll place of chairs.
Cheap iron beds arc sometimes seen'
but a large number of oricntals sleep
on wooden hunks covered with a thin
mattress of rice straw.
Rice cooked in various forms with
fresh and dried fish forms tho pr!n-
cipal food. The settlers do not appear
to lie hearty caters and their d!ctaries
vary very little from day TO day. In
many cases the men do the cooking.
and the condition of the kitchens in
which they work is very unsanitary.
On the rice plantation the womans
work is IN the home. There she has
c .ee OF the kitchen. and provides
meals for ten. hfteen or more men
working on Inc farm. On the truck
farms where women are found they
aid materially in the cultivation of the

to weed, cultivate and harvest the
