HUMAN LIFE AT TEN DOLLARS
Is Proved by Experience Of Trav-
eler in That Country.

There are 1O0,O00,OOO children in
China under ten years of age. One
wonders how there are so many re-
naming, for multitudes of children die
of through exposure, ill care, starva-
ton and disease. Hundreds of thou
sands of these children live in the
Chinese sampans, which ply the rivers
and throng the water fronts of the
great cities. For generations these
boatmen knew no other home than
these boats. In case of babies, a rope
it attached under their arms and if
they slip over the side of the sampan
into the water they are fished out the
best way possible.
But life is plenty and cheap in
China. How much then is a man
better than a Sheep" Not much bet
ter in China A friend of mine, a
Brooklyn judge. who arrived late at
the daily public execution in Canton,
and who could only stay for the day,
was told that for $40 they would Sc.
cure a special victim to satisfy the
Americans curiosity. And they pro-
ceeded to find a man who for the sake
Of his family was willing to barter his
life for SO. OF course, he got the $40
and his life.-Christian Herald.

RAISING HORSES AND MULES
Important Factor In Agricultural Pro-
ductIon on Average Farm 10
That Of Animal Power.

For the southern farmer, there is
no single factor In agricultural FRO
duction on the average farm that is
of greater importance than good horse
or mule power. This power can usu-
ally be furnished more cheaply by the
production of needed animals at home
than by purchasing them from remote
localities. In home production there
is also the added advantage of pos
sessing animals which are thoroughly
acclimatized.
The destruction Of horses in the
countries now at war Is enormous, and
when peace is declared and for many
years thereafter, there will no doubt
be a great demand for horses for az
ricultural and other work. The farm.
er who has surplus horses at that
time will be in a position to obtain
good prices. Keep your best mares
to work on the farm and raise colts
at the same time. You will thus be
in a position not only to raise horses
for your work but also to take advan.
tage of the home and foreign markets.

CONTINUAL GRIND OF FARMER
Successful Farmer Must Learn to
Make Money Without Drudgery-
Don't Sicken Young People.

Too many people think of the farm
er's life as one of continual grind. Too
many farmers make their life too much
Of a grind. Excessively long hours.
except occasionally, are no more nec-
essary on the farm than in other lines
of work
Who ever knew a man who was
making money on a farm who wasn't
thankful to be there? But he must
learn how to make money without the
drudgery. He must take agricultural
papers. They are his trade journals;
he must read the bulletins and at
tend the farmers Institutes. He can
not afford to sicken his young people
of the farm by keeping everlastingly
at work. Too big feed of honey will
sicken one of it. Too big a dose of
farm work will sicken the young folks
just as surely.

COOPERATION IN NEW YORK
Practical Steps Taken by Federation
OF Jewish Farmers of America
Making Farming a Success.

Our farmers in general can read an
instructive lesson in the successful ap-
piication Of the principle Of co-opera-'
ton to agriculture as detailed at the
recent annual convention of the Fed
Grafton of Jewish Farmers of America,
says Utica Saturday Globe. 1t will
be a surprise to many to find that
not only are the Jews making notable
success of farming in this country. but
that they are dealing with its prob
lens along intelligent and modern
lines. The federation has a member
ship Of 1,4OO farmers. with GO branch
organizations in IL states.
The Jewish farmers have applied the
principles and methods of cooperation
to mutual insurance of buildings. crops
and stock, to the purchase of supplies,
and to the establishment Of local
credit unions. In Ulster and Sullivan
counties. New York state, they had
been unable to get their property in
sured at reasonable premium until
they organized the Cooperative Fire
insurance company, a concern which
now carries more than one million dol
lars worth of insurance and has saved
the farmers thousands of dollars.
The principal disadvantage under
which the farmer labors is to be found
In the fact that he usually buys at re-
tall and sells at wholesale. This is
the reverse Of the practice in most
other enterprises. II can be changed
by cooperative organizations for buy
ing and selling and the Jewish farm
ers have done so as concerns buying.
They have saved their members many
thousands Of dollars annually in the
purchase Of supplies.
In the same way, their local credit
unions have enabled them to borrow
sums up to 800 to tide them over I'M
I'll the crops were harvested. Previ-
ously. they experienced much difficulty
In raising ready money when they
most needed it.
These are practical steps toward
making farming a business and enlist
Ing in its behalf those modern
agencies which make other branches
OF business successful

GOOD NORTH CAROLINA PLAN
Establish Store With Patronage Divi-
dends-Farmers Buy and Use I'M
proved Machinery Together.

After paying unfair prices for our
supplies and not getting what we
ought for our eggs, butter, etc., we
decided to start a store of our own.
We bought out grocer located In the
center Of our neighborhood, in order
to make it convenient for all. The
following is the plan on which we run
1t. We sell all, members and non
members, at the same price. We
charge for our goods just what other
merchants do. We keep an accurate
account OF our members trade and d.
vide profits according to patronage,
writes ]. l.. Tunnel Of North Carolina
In Progressive Farmer. We also keep
an account of the trade of all widows
and let them share in the profits like
members. We encourage all that can
to take stock. We pay per cent in
terest for hire Of money. At the end
of the first two months after setting
aside 10 per cent of profits for a re-
serve fund, we had a net profit of IL
per cent on every dollar traded by
our members.
So you see. brother farmer, II you
have been spending $500 a year for
supplies you ought to have a dividend
of $50 year. If you have been pro-
viding for a family 20 years that
would amount to $1,000, to say moth
ing about interest, that some fellow
has gotten and is out automobile driv-
ing on, while you and your family
work hard.
II we have butter, fruit, or any
thing of that kind to sell, we take It
to the store. The manager finds the
best market for 1t. II we have eggs
to sell, we take them there and get
just What they net. So you see there
is no speculation. We also buy our
fertilizers together in carload lots and
save a great deal that way.
Again, most Of US are small farmers
and not able to own all kinds of i'm
proved implements. And IL we were
able, 1t wou,c not pay to invest so
much in machinery while farming on
small scale like most of us do.
Therefore. we buy our implements and
machinery together. Some buy hay
balers. others reapers, etc, and do
one another's work, thereby giving us
all the advantage of improved nipple
ments without any one having much
invested. and enabling us to do our
work economically. In regard to
shipping our products, we have no
railroad transportation near, and have
to ship by boat. We suffered loss a
long time by unfair captains. Since
we organized we can control It. The
boat that does our work is owned and
run by members of our local. We all
patronize 1t. enabling them to give us
lower freight rate
| want to say, too, that we have the
advantages OF a telephone in OH,
neighborhood that we would not have
had without cooperation. We alsc
have nice schoolhouse with tbree
rooms in 1t, employ two good teach
ers, and have eight to ten month,
school a year. That We would mo-
have had and could not have had with
out cooperation

Franz Josef Land.

BY annexing Franz Josef Land, Rus
STA increases the number, rather than
the extent, Of her possessions. The
archipelago consists of about sixty
islands, almost all of the group being
covered with snow-clad glaciers. The
Austrian pioneers believed they had
discovered continuous land, but their
successors, the first of whom was Ben.
jamin Leigh Smith, found that the &C.
QUESTION was broken up into islands.
Both hansen and the duke of the
Abruzzi have explored the group. Now
that Austria's arctic territory has
been captured, we may hear Of the
hosting of the British flag in Kaiser
Wilhelm II Land and Luitpold Land
which areas in the Antarctic are Ger.
man possessions. Wilhelm II Land
was discovered by the Gauss expedi
ton, and Luitpold Land, in the Wed
dell sea, by Lieutenant Filchner.

New Anesthetic.

A new anesthetic is being used in
the treatment of wounded in the pres
ent war. 1t is understood to be re-
lated to amalgersine, a preparation dis
covered, as this, too, has been, by NJ.
Paulin, a distinguished French chemist
and a pupil of Pasteur. Its action Is
not local; it operates upon the nerve
centers of the body, and produces a
state of obliviousness to pain which
may last for several hours. 1t is
claimed that by an injection of this
fluid into his system the wounded sol,
der may be rendered unconscious suf.
ficiently long to cover the period of his
removal to the station, where the first
serious treatment of his injuries may
be seen to.

COOPERATION is ALL RIGHT
Successful Farmer Should Display
Some individuality in Working
Up Private Cash Trade.

Cooperation is naturally suggested
and believe in it. The principle is all
right and we will get to it after time.
But we need to do something individ-
ually. Successful farmers often owe
their progress to their custom of rails
ing such articles as can be sold read
lily in their nearest town to private Gus
toners. A variety of produce, includ-
ing poultry and eggs, butter and vege-
tables ought to be so handled as to
give a weekly income and those things
should be sold to the consumers who
will gladly pay full retail prices They
know that they are getting fresher
goods and better measure from the
farmer than at the store.-R. NJ
