as capable of thought and invention
as any other people. Germany,
whom we have been worshiping so
far in this respect. was not the orig
inator OF those things for which we
adored it, but itself an imitator of
England, America, France and Italy
where most of the great inventions
and discoveries took place. 1t is,
indeed, n great mistake to regard
Germany as a great inventive
cation.
While up to the present Japanese
commerce and industry have been
under the domination OF the West,
japan should now make a change
and exert itself for world wide rec
ignition. The best time to do this
is the present, while Europe is en-
gagged otherwise and the greatest
commercial states are too busy to
modest us. At present England and
France are too much taken up with
the war TO take much interest in
competition, while Germany, which
has made the poverty stricken East
its unwilling customer. Is now sur
rounded and cut off from maintaining
its commerce abroad. The whole
trade field Of the Orient lies open
to Japanese commerce and IL il does
not seize the opportunity 1t will be
It's own fault. We have thus the
rarest OF chances for unusual de-
velopment."
For the sake of national commerce
and industry, il for no other reason
the writer considered that Japan
must develop her sea power. He
added: 1T is necessary that the
nation should see also to the compile
ton of its preparation for arma-
mental expansion. The whole nation
should be drilled and ready to
Defend the Empire
in time OF emergency. The present
method of keeping a small number
of young men In barracks for long
intervals is not only uneconomical
but impractical; for those so drilled,
to the exclusion of others, might all
be killed in battle and then no trained
soldiers would be left to take their
places. What Japan wants is uni
versal military service. The whole
nation must be ready to bear arms IL
need be.
The war now raging in Europe
proves that men, after training of
II few months, fight as bravely and
successfully as old soldiers, and the
outcome now depends more on the
number of those who can go to the
front than on the amount of drill
they have received. Thus to confine
drill to n small number is a fatal
policy OF efficiency in national de-
Tense. Also 1t is uneconomical. Mar
row-minded military martinets may
scott at such suggestion, but prac-
teal men will approve 1t. The state
must be considered before the opin-
ion Of clan specialists. The system
OF military drill used in Japan is an
invention of the time OF Napoleon and
takes no thought of modern inven-
tions, such as aeroplanes and SO on"
D. Kamada concludes: THUS
Japan's hopes for the future depend
on laying stress on these three OBJ
jects: scientific development as
business; commercial expansion as a
goal and sea power as consequence.

bearing Of the bunch grape make 1t
easy to prune and the work can be
done much more systematically than

1t will stand very severe pruning with

purpose other than to convey plant
food to the more remote fruit-bearing
parts. Moreover, IL the vine Is left to

small, inferior punches. For best re-
suits, our common varieties more than
four years old should be pruned so as
to bear not more than from seventy
to one hundred clusters.
The method Of pruning is determin-
ed in part by the kind of training
practiced. There are several good
systems. One Of the simplest, which
Is also one Of the best for the South.
Is that known as the double Kniffin
system Of training. in which are de-
veloped two trunks, each Of which
carries two arms trained to two
wire trellis.
Use a one or two-year-old vine for
transplanting and cut back the top to
three or four strong buds. That Wig
orous canes may be produced rub off
all shoots that appear during summer,
except the strongest three Only two
shoots are necessary but 1t is well
! to leave three, in case one should be

injured. The following winter (after
constructing the trellis) remove the
weakest OF the three canes and cut
back those remaining, one at the first
wire and the other at the top wire.
Securely tied to the wires, they form
the permanent trunks Of the vine.
In the third year, select two strong
canes coming out near the extremity
Of each trunk and train them along
the wires In opposite directions to
form arms. Then shorten them back
to a length Of two, three, or four feet,
this depending on the vigor Of the
vine. All other canes are cut off close
to the trunk.
Pruning in the fourth and subse.
Quent years consists in cutting back
new canes to two buds or entirely re-
newing the arms by cutting them out
and training new canes to take their
places. 1t Is not always possible to
renew an arm, because Of the prob.
able lack Of strong cane to take its
place. On the other hand. the prac.
tice Of cutting back canes to two
buds. continued a long time, will
cause a thick. Objectionable mass Of
spurs to accumulate along the arms.
The most desirable way is to combine
the renewal plan with the spur meth
od and thereby suit the pruning to
the vigor and general form Of the vine.
In cases where it SENS best to prune
an arm to spurs. thin them to a dis
tance Of six to eight inches apart to
prevent the setting of more fruit than
the vine can properly develop.
The best time to prune the bunch
grape is in spring, just before the buds
come out. Do not delay until the
season is too far advanced That
pruning produces results Is shown in
the accompanying illustration, the
only difference between these two
punches being that the vine of one
was pruned, while that Of the other
was not.
