strolled into the IN. & n" saloon, Where from
the rather disturbed atmosphere of the place
noticed something amiss. one man was just
picking himself up from the ground, while most
of the attention was concentrated upon a drunken
miner sitting on a billiard table, On lnqulrng
what the trouble was, l informed that the
miner had "buffaloed' the saloon-in other words,
he defied the crowd any of the bartenders tine

was one of the latter to put him outside No

and a trooper of the r. ~ w. M. police in his
red coat stroled in Another trooper quietly fol-
lowed Neither in any way appeared to notice
ANYTHING was particularly wrong The first troop
err strolled up to the table and, looking steadily at
the drunken miner quietly ordered him to put
on his coat and get out. The miner started 10
swear and buster; but at the repeated order,
this time in rather sharper tones, he put his coat
on and walked out like lamb. The two troop
ers followed They did not even trouble to ar
rest him. the occurrence being no unusual one
This little incident made me realize what an
influence this small body of men had gained In
that wild stretch of country. During the great
rush the troops of this corps-one of the finest
that ever ruled the kings dominions-did their

charm of the great city Influenced him
to remain within it's confines. He
was literary in his tastes and he had
a vague idea that he was gathering up
material for a great novel to exploit

Hubert soon forgot about the

the southern and southeastern coasts of Japan,
very much the way as the Gulf stream
warns the coasts of western Europe; and partly
on account of her position geographically with
her long stretch of country from north to south,
and the influence of winds and ocean currents,
japan has a large variety of temperature through
out the whole empire.
Rice is very largely grown, in the southern is
lands as we'll in the southern part of the main
island where one sees very extensive rice fields,
but not in the north. There is kind of dry
rice grown, but this is not of good quality.
The rice grown In Japan is reckoned among
the best in the world, and she takes third place
among the riceproducing countries, and exports
very large quantities. She imports rice as well,
and this may fsound strange In a rice-growing
country; but the quality of her homegrown rice
being so very fine, she exports all she can and
imports cheaper rice for her home consumption
from Korea and China and India that is of in
ferior quality to her own; but mixed with Japan
csc rice it is used freely among the poorer
classes. Although it is the staple food, other
kinds of grain used as well-millet barley
and wheat are cultivated, and have been grown
for food during past centuries in the country.
Crops of these are grown during the time when
the rice fields lie faow. Two kinds of potatoes
are grown as we'll for consumption.
Hitherto the rice consumers in Japan nave
been mostly the people living in the towns, the
peasantry looking upon it as somewhat of lux
widening out and the standard of living is grow
ing higher in Japan, and more rice is being con-
sumed in the country than formerly, and this
ins addition to the fact that the population Is
rapidly increasing means that the question OF
the production of the food supplies in the coun
try in the future is one that has to be seriously
considered, and for these reasons the Japanese
government has considered the question OF the
increasing demand for food supply very care
fully.
Many years ago the Institutes for agricultural
experiments were. established and these are do
ing their work well. Much has been carried out
for the Encouragement of, the farm fields, in the
partitions and in the irrigation systems of fur-
rows and canals works of this kind carried out
in sufficient extent will enlarge the farm areas
very considerably and lessen the necessity for
opening up any new land for cultivation II Is
by following these methods that Japan is prepar-
ing herself to meet the increasing demand for
food Failure OF crop and consequent famine
have to be met by larger imports but necessarily
cause great distress among the people.
Times and seasons are scrupuousy regarded
by the peasantry for all their agricultural operas

are very much dreaded early In September. When

TROPHY BELONGED TO DOG
Nothing More Than Due Reward OF
Little Animal That Had Boldly Il
Attacked Lion.

Simba, a plucky fox terrier, born
and raised in London, is the only dog
of its breed which has ever tackled
full-grown lion 'single-handed."
The story of how Simba fought the
lion is told by the dogs owner, Cher
ry Keaton, who went to British East
Africa for the purpose of obtaining
moving pictures of wild animals. Now,
Simba is an ordinary fox terrier, of
no special value from a breeders
point of view. It's fight with the lion
occurred while Mr.. Keaton was trying
to obtain pictures of the killing of a
lion by native spearmen. Two lions
had been located in some scrubs, and
20 Nasal warriors, with spears, were
ready to attack. The lioness, however.
escaped, and the male lion, after APP
pearing for moment, bolted into a
dried river bed and refused to bulge
"Simba," states Mr.. Keaton, "darted
into the donga, and within few sec
onds we heard tremendous roar that
seemed to shake the ground, and the
bushes within IL yards of us were yio-
lently agitated. The lion reared
again and again, and in the brief in
tervals we heard the weak but very
furious yapping of the dog. The
Nasal stool, every nerve tingling, with
spears poised.
Suddenly the lion dashed through a
little clearing, and we were amazed to
see Simba hanging on with her teeth
embedded in its tail. Three spears
were hurled at the escaping beast with
such accuracy that they all transflxed
the heart and the lion fell dead. You
must know that the skin of the lion
belongs, according to local custom, not
to the warrior whose spear infiicts the
fatal wounds, but to the man who first
rushes IN and cuts off the black tip
from the tall.
Two of the three spearsmen dashed
into the donga, but they found Simba
with the black tip still between her
teeth, resolutely determined to oppose
any hostile, claim. The worriors, who
were lost in admlration. agreed that
the skin bGIonged"by right Of seizure
to sfmba.. and they handed 1t over
later to my wife as trustee for the
dog"
