40 pounds Of silage day, his gain
will be at least two pounds a day.
Experiments made on the Cronkhite
ranch in 1911 and 1912 show that an
acre OF kafr made twenty-five per
cent more silage than an acre Of corn,
said Mr.. Hammond. Win Cronkhite
told the writer that he has found a
silo will pay for itself the first time it
has been filled with kafr and has been
fed to cattle. Farmers, he says, would
save at least so per cent Of feed stun
which is ordinarily wasted because Of
lack of proper handling on the Cronk,

fattened. They chiefly follow the
steers and are finished on kafr

INFLUENCE OF j. S.
FOREMOST IN CHINA

LONDON, Dec. 31.-The Shanghai cor.
respondent Of the Daily Chronicle, writ
ing on the spread of American influence
In China. says: There can he no doubt
about growing spirit among youthful
Chinese which regards America as the
true hero of democracy. and which in
duces them to look upon America as a
guide In matters of national conduct.
The atmosphere of the Chinese In Pekins
has always been, IL anything, favorable
to Britishers. 1t is SO now. but there
Is louder cry going up with a strong
American accent in all matters politi-
cal.
THE ministers of state are pro-
American. and the new Chinese officials
are mostly men of American education.
Even President Yuan Shi Kai is known
to be peculiarly friendly toward Amer
lea. He Is understood especially to ia
vor American capital coming to China.
The American missionary also plays
his part well, and probably works politi-
cal economy into his evaDgelistic propa-
ganda more than any missionary Of any
vast organization Of the Y. NJ. C. A. In
China, worked almost exclusively by
Americans, who are indefatigable in
their work in all parts of The country,
have UOtle more curing Tie live
years to Anericanize China than any
other force operating here.
"As q matter of fact America has as
stunned the political and financial guid-
ance Of China. This attitude, growing
by tactics that out-maneuverad Japan.
Russia, and England, was strengthened
immensely bx President Wilson'S early
recognition of the Chinese republic and
his attitude In connection with loan
matters. During the revolution Eng
Iish diplomatists were so circumspect.
and have been since, as to incur the an
noyance OF the Chinese. whereas the
United States cleverly contrived to be
on good terms equally with the north
and south.
There can be no doubt either that
American can appreciate the sheer inn
mensity of China more than the aver
age Englishman, and every American
knows tI.at al good intentions are fully
granted There will finally come a
mackerel as reward for the sprat now
being thrown"

gathering them, SO to speak, and plac-
ing them on the selenium cell in the
same way that IL would pace them on a
Photographic plate. Now, on the silen-
ium cell, the positive part of the cur
rent is constantly trying To get through,
but cannot because the cell Is in perfect
darkness. But as soon as the lens con-
centrates the rays on the cell in the
form of a picture, the current can pass
through the cell and form a complete
circuit
"The positive current meeting the
negative current in the platinum cell
causes the cell to glow with white heat
in the shape, forms and proportion as
the wireless waves concentrated on the
selenium cell by the photographic lens.
The Photographic plate, being directly
behind the platinum cell gets the full
benefit of the white-hot platinum glow,
thereby impressing on the photograph
ic plate the exact reproduction OF the
picture concentrated on the selenium
cell by the lens.
IAN that is needed now is to develop
the plate in the usual way, and the
photograph OF the wireless waves Is
complete"

with the same results.

graphed wireless waves, Goodrich cltes

BY far the most important hyrdo-
electric undertaking that has ever been
projected in india is being carried out
at an estimated cost of $S,000,o00 in the
Bombay presidency by the Tata Hydro
electric Power Supply Company, accord
ing to a consular report. 1t will pro-
vide about 5000 horsepower and will
be supplying energy by February, 1914
Contracts have already been signed
for supplying power to thirty-one cot
ton mills and three -four mills in Bonn

to 2.00o horsepower each. This win re-
suit in a great saving In operating cost,
as these mills now use about 6o,00g
horsepower generated by steam. The
scheme owed its inception and organ
ization tothe late Jamsetjee Tata, the
most enterpr1sing capitalist and indus

which nearly 81. .eu1, 900 was contributed

LOAN SHARKS SEEK
PREY IN CLERGY

LONDON. Dec. 5L-Having exhausted
almost every other source of easy
money! the money lenders of London
have reached out for the clergy, and
while they enmeshed some of the
weaker Of the brethren, there is at
least one of the cloth who not only got
some of their money but at the same
prosecution. The exposure comes from
Canon J. Hasloch Potter. vicar of st.
Marks, Surbiton. who has Just become
the possessor OF El00 under singular
He received a letter from a West End
firm of money lenders. in when they
stated that they would have much
pleasure in granting him "a strictly
private loan without any security. and
adding, 80 long as per cent interest
is paid. as agreed. the capital may re-
main for any period not exceeding five
years, or. IL desired. ii can be repaid
BY a series of quarterly or half-yeariy
payments. and we Cthe money lenders)
will be happy TO Immediately forward
bank notes on learning of the amount
required.
Canon Potter sent n carefully wordcd
reply, asking for particulars as TO the
meaning of the words $50 long as per
cent interest is paid, as agreed" but
having no intention to borrow money,
and conveying no such intention in the
letter
ter containing GlO0 in bank notes and 4
promissory note for the repayment OF
els in three months. In other words
III. rate OF interest demanded was 90
Der cent per snnum. The Canon took
legal opinion, retained the promissory
note. placed the G1c0 in tbe custody OF
a friend. and is awaiting further de-
velop.nents.
Canon Potter says his object Is TO
expose a specious system of money
lending that has been going on for
some time. and which is calculated to
impose upon the younger clergy, young
officers in the army and persons hold
ing positions where any threatened pub
licfty as TO monty-lending transaction
would cause then TO pay any rate Of
interest, however exorbitant, rather than
be found out.
THE unwars might easily be de-
ceived by the offer Of this particular
firm of money-lenders," said Canon
Potter, "for few would think that the
OFFER to lend the money for any period
80 long as 5 per cent interest is paid,
as agreed really meant repayment at
the rate OF 90 per cent per annu:n." q

Horselydown. Bermondsey. Is another
clergyman who received ESQ unlimited

cums;snces. and who is awaiting
