Missouri's Best Mule.

No better illustration Of the in
creasing value of the draft mare
in Missouri is to be obtained than
from the fact that for the past
three years the champion mule at
the Missouri State Fair has been
out of a Percheron mare. Visit
ors at the Missouri State Fair
this year agreed that the five
year-old mule, Missouri Queen,
was one Of The best grand cham
pion mules ever seen on Missouri
soil, which undoubtedly is saying
about all there is to be said.
The dam of Missouri Queen was
a 1,600-pound Percheron mare.
Missouri Queen herself, standing
is IL hands high and weighing
1890 pounds after working all
summer, presented about the fin
est combination Of size and quail
ity that the most fastidious crit
ic Of horse flesh or mule flesh
could ask for.
Nudge Marshall, of Randolph
county, Missouri, who owns the
Missouri Queen, is satisfied that
the Percheron mare is the best
mare from which to raise high
priced draft mules. The fact
that he has been a consistent. win
ner with mules Of this type con-
firms his opinion. There are still
many men who hold the belief
that the best mule can be raised
only from the mare of saddle or
roadster stock, and while this
breeding gives the mule Of great
quality, it does not give q mule
of the size and bone Of the one
from draft stock.
The repeated winning Of mules
from draft stock not only ct Mis-
souri, but at other state fairs en-
tirelY overthrows this belief and
brings forward i new type. All
Of which Is but another reason
why the draft mare is one Of the
best and most efficient for the
general farm. Farmer and
StOckman.

Buttermilk Paint.

This formula for buttermilk
paint is from the Wallaces Farm
err:
''Take one. gallon Of butter
milk, three pounds Of Portland
cement, and sufficient coloring
matter to give the desired color.
The paint should be applied soon
after it is made, and should be
stirred great deal while being
used. One difficulty is that the
cement has a tendency to settle
to the bottom Of the bucket UNI
less it is frequently stirred. The
paint requires about six hours for
drying. after which it will shed
water very effectively. Venetian
red or almost any color may be
used. The paint does not give a
very glossy surface, so would not
be very good for painting any
thing on which a fine varnish is
desired. Buttermilk paint has
been found very good for cover
ing injuries on trees after prun-
ing, but when used for this pur-
pose, the quantity Of cement
should be increased, so as to
make the paint quite thick :
This paint is said to be absolute
ly fire proof.

No direct foreign loan for the republics

commissioners. They do breach. however, the
subject OF what virtually amounts to loan

follows in general the lines OF French capital
zation OF the Russian state railways.
In America alone is the proposition possible.
Japan is in position to scheme, to organize
and TO play an important part in adrninistra-
ton Of manufacture, but not to finance any
such gigantic undertaking.
David T.. T. Yui, executive secretary of the
lecture department OF the National Young
Mems Christian Association committee OF
China and one OF the best informed men IN
the republic, while carefully avoiding any ret
crcnce to the present status Of Chino Japanese
relations. pointed out that those who looked
on Iapan unfavorably and made bitter point
of industrial Japan's ability to swallow the
Chinese market whole providing all western
rroducts-guns. machines. railroads and the
like--for the republic, were ovcrestlmating the
actual industrial ability Of Japan. AS things
stand now in 1915, so large an order is COM
plctely outside its power Of underwriting
financial ventures.
It is evident however. TO those who speak
with this present group OF Chinese capitalists
that Japanese premises that their country is
not ready to and develop and organize IT
self are in some measure an impetus to take
time by the forelock and grow strong by COM
mercial self -development, backed by cooper
ating American example and machinery before
the situation is out Of their hands.
China, according to Commissioner Chu, is
a changing market. The advertising charge
in the total cost OF production is there pre-
cisely what it is here. Advertising rates are

comparable 70 rates in this country, notwth-
standing the apparent small calculations OF
most Chinese periodicals and newspapers. The
cost of newspapers is about cent and half
apiece-in our money equivalent to five cents
so that apparent circulation remains small and
real circulation arises the papers pass from
hand to hand and on again into the interior
provinces
Advertising by the British American Tobac
co Company has made China cigarette smok-
ing nation. whose old long pipe is laid away.
The Standard Oil Company through advertis-

life could be trarspanted and used. we are

Chairman Chang.
Of the possible supplementary efforts OF
Chinese and American women in the cement
ing of friendly relations between the two ma
tons Commissioner SEE. Cornell graduate and
Ten-Tsin coal merchant ard mining director,
brother of the present Chinese Minister to
London, said:
The women of China, particularly those
who live in the treaty-ports and have Western
cducations, are definitely behind the republic
and its ideals. They have helped with sub
scriptions and raising money. They have been
good speakers. Their awakening activities
have met no resentment from Chinese men, as
womens activities have in some other parts
of the world.
Except when they go too far said Com
missioner SEE. And he went on to recall as
the length that too far the agitation
among Chinese women of the southern treaty
ports, who wanted themselves to go north and
fight when the south was making its stand
against the imperial north.

ton was meant 70 prepare the way Tor tore
handed social labor legislation.
In certain specific ventures the demand on
the United States by China IS clear. 1t is
the wish Of Commissioner Li-Ch Chu that the
reclamation work in the valley OF the Wei-ho
River. which by preventing costly floods sta
bilizes the agricultural basis OF the population
OF the valley, should be followed by similar
reclamation work by American engineers in
the valley Of the Yangtse. In New Orleans
the commissioners visited the reclamation
project under the direction of Arnold Weber,
where orange groves are being made from
cypress swamps, and it is work OF that sort
that they wish to encourage in their own
country.
The chairman Of the commission, Cheng Hsun
Chang, known here as the John D. OF Asia
who began as pearl diver and now controls
a fortune o. S1coooooco. has vision OF i'm
rense simp,i6cation OF American Chinese re-
lations through Pacific trade routes. At pres
ent a good deal OF Chinese goods reaches US

The policy met the approval o; the Chinese,
but not OF thc Europeans They deemed it
result of our own weakness and an attempt to
foster our interests at their expense without
involving ourselves in risks similar to those
which they themselves had been obliged to un-
dergo in securing their privileges. It was, they
said. the only way we could secure rights in
China without having to night for them, and
it meant in so many words that the Chinese
were to rob them Of their privileges for which
they had paid and were to confer them on US

1T should be a matter Of national impor-
lance when Chinese concessions are granted

has operated in a general way between the two
countries should be reflected in interest IN
particular enterprises.
China at present is primarily a great asn-
cultural country. but rich in every resource
that makes for d magnificent industrial future.
What we need and what the present commits
sion hopes to initiate the accomplishment OF
is the widespread introduction OF American
machinery. Here our country is recognized
as one OF the tremendous markets of the world
for manufactures OF al kinds. It is fair that
from within the country itself should be de
vcloped some of the snpoly for that demand.
The commissioners bring with them keen
roree Of wishing TO follow the example OF the
United States and an equally keen desire to
avoid by detour those features OF American
life which sign our failures. They regret the
