reached Washington indicating that
there already has sprung UP In Japan
great popular demand for the reten-
ton OF the territory of Kiao-chow after
II is taken from the Germans by force.
It is evident that the japanese Gov

ing this demand with the passage of

Japan docs not stand pledged TO return
Kiao-chow to China and never has com
mitted herself on the subject

embarrassment OF the Government
which has pledged itself to confine its

sary TO protect trade.
The suggestion arises that possibly
the Japanese Government may also md
opposition at home TO the giving up Of
some Of the German islands in tho

though, definite assurances have been
given to the United States by Japan,

Recently there has been organized in
Nashville the only negro board of trade
in the world, writes Michael Jones in
a communication to the Washington
Star. 1t serves as a beacon light and
stands as an ideal example of what
such an organization means to a com-
munity In which there are colored men
engaged in business. ]. G. Napier, ex-
register of the United States treasury,
is president of the board, and through
his master mind the policies are
shaped and carried out. The young
and unparalleled organization is dem
onstrating how indispensable such a
body is to the fullest and broadcast
economic, religious and intellectual
development of any town, city or coun-
ty in which there are a goodly number
of colored citizens. DR.. Booker t.
Washington, whom the world honors
and reveres, who has been invaluable
to the progress Of his race and who Is
an ~undisputed authority on negro life
in America, tells us hat there are
owned, operated and controlled by ne.
groes In America 100 insurance com.
panies, 300 drug stores, 65 banks, 450
newspapers, magazines and periodicals
and more than 10000 other businesses
of various kinds.
These people are succeeding in bust
ness because they are doing what the
world wants done. A review of these
facts will bring visions of a better fu'
ture" to even the most pessimistic OF
the race. How vivid it is that the

haps two months. There was also a season when
we ate oysters, and fresh Goldfish. and green peas,
and tomatoes. Now we want anything or every
thing every month in the year. We are forget
ting what the year means to us, and we are also
losing the great economic advantage of buying
In season and of buying intelligently. Probably
veal is usually inferior to mature meat in nutrf-
tive value; but l am less concerned in this aspect
of the case than in the fact that we are losing
the meaning of the months. Less demand for
veal would do more than any law toward cor
recting some of our difficulties; but even SO, the
farmer will not raise the mature animal unless
1t pays him to do so.
Il think that much could be done to stimulate
the production of beef by providing for local
manipulating and manufacturing establishments.
We have developed local cooperative creameries,
cooperative grain elevators, shipping associa-
lions, evaporating establishn 9nts and others. I
should like to see the development of local
slaughter houses, in charge of the raisers of
meat, in all the localities in which it can pay to
raise beef and other meats. The industry un-

doubtedly can be stimulated and encouraged and
the farmer would have more control both of his
output and OF his market, and have more conf
dence in his business. l think that a -co-opera-
tive slaughter house in which the farmers them
selves would be interested is better so far as
production is concerned than a municipal slaugh-
ter house, which is more or less removed from
the control and sympathies Of the men who pro-
duce the supplies. OF course, the slaughter house
as we'll under one establishment as under the
other.
1.-THE legal aspects of this proposed veal leg
islation I should think would be very interesting.
1t is a question whether 1t is within the power
Of congress or any legislature to enact such a
law. The federal government, as l understand 1t,
possesses no general police power. 1t probably
could not prevent the killing OF veals except
when intended for interstate commerce and 1t
would then have to be shown that there was
some other reason than mere economic ad-
vantage.
ut is a question whether such legislation would
be a violation of the guarantee against the taking
of property without due process; and it is not
only a question Of the taking of property, but
also of the internal economic regulation of a
mans business, modifying his farm scheme as
far as the raising of food is concerned, the en-
ployment Of labor, the buying of feed, and the
shifting of the business in general. To raise
beef cattle is one business; to raise milk is an
other business; veal is mostly a product of the
milk business. Probably much can be done to
modify the present order Of things and to in
crease the beef supply on the farm in many parts
of the United States, but 1t must be done with
an understanding of the farm business, the size
of the farm, and of the locality or region in
which 1t pays to raise beef rather than to raise
something else"

Improvement in the dairy can be achieved only
by raising and developing heifers into COWS that
are superior to their mothers. The proper selec-
ton of the sire is one of the greatest influences
in the improvement of the herd, but of equal i'm
portance is the growing and developing of the
young things after they are born, for the best
bred calf may develop into a scrub COW If 1t re-
ceive scrub treatment.
Granting that the calf is born right, due care
must be taken particularly during it's first three
months. For the first twenty-four hours, let 1t
suck its mother. This is better for both the COW
and the calf. After the first day remove the
youngster from its mother and for at least ten
days feed upon whole milk. If the calf is doing
well at the end of that time skim milk may grad
ually be substituted for the whole milk, till by the
end of three weeks the calf is entirely upon skim
milk. AS soon as the calf will begin to eat grain
feed a mixture Of bran, corn and crushed oats
mixed in equal parts by weight, allowing it to
have as much as it will clean up twice a day.
The skim milk should be continued until six
months of age, although the amount should never
greatly exceed Is pounds per day.
At about six weeks of age calves generally be-
gin to eat roughage, and 1t 10 very important to
furnish them with as much ~roughage of excellent
quality as they will eat, for hay or grass is nee
essary for the proper development of the calf.
We want our dairy COWS to have great digestive
capacity; to get this they must begin early to eat
good hay. There Is no better hay than alfalfa of
high quality. Where 1t is not obtainable mixed
clover hay or rowen will be found most excellent,
To the above feeds add healthful conditions such
as comfortable, moderately warm quarters, fresh
air, cleanliness, sunlight (clean feed pals and
feed troughs or buckets are absolutely essentially

The American Genetic association
foresees a solution of the so-called
race problem in the natural increase
Of the two races as analysed by Pro-
fessor Wilcox of the census bureau.
Mr.. Wilcox says the Negro is stead
lily losing ground in the South both
by immigration of whites and by
their own declining birthrate. They
are losing still more rapidly in the
North.
The more rapid increase of the
whites is attributed not only to the
influx Of immigration, but to the fact
that in the registration area where vi
tai statistics are available, including
three-ffths of the whites and one-ffth
of the negroes, the negro death rate
exceeds the white by about two-thirds.
In the past 80 years the excess in the
proportion of negro children has been
falling until the present differnce be-
tween the race is less than one-fourth
that of 1880, and will, at the present
rate, have disappeared when the next
census Is taken. This decline in the
birthrate is ascribed largely to ne
pro emigration into the northern cit
les. The birthrate among negroes in
the city is but two-thirds of city
whites, whereas in the country it is
above the country whites. Besides the
fecundity of all races is lower in the
North and the negro trend northward
is constantly increasing.

six months the heller should have made an ex-

Most calves are dropped in the spring of the
year; yet I believe better results are obtained If
the heifers dropped in the early fall are kept for
the herd, for calves dropped then are nearly six
months old when grass comes and are then
large enough to withstand flies and other sum-
mer troubles and can make the best use of the
grass. Spring calves will do as we'll If kept in
