CHINA WANTS OUR GOODS
American Manufacturers Are Meeting
Favorable Reception at Hands
of OrientaIs.

The Chinese are beginning distinct
ly to favor American goods and re-
gard America as model from mani
ufacturing as well as governmental
viewpoint according to Maurice Ben
jafnin, general manager of the Oliver
Import and Export company, Shang-
hal, China. In spite of the famine in
freight, he says. American manufac-
turers are not only gradually finding
their way into China, but are being
sought by the Orientals.
"The tremendous disturbances in
Europe have not failed to leave traces
in China,' he said. "In this the high
freight rates have played no small
part. China wonders why so large a
nation as America should have no
mercantile marine. In some lines
where only $40 per ton was paid be-
fore the war for transportation from
the United States west coast to
China, as much as $40 per ton has re-
Gently been paid.
Il believe the day is not far dis
tant when we will see a new China.
When the 400,0O0,00O people there be-
} gin to want machinery, railways and
other requirements of civilization,
America will benefit. 1t is a common
error to think that the Chinese are
too inveterately conservative to adopt
, Western civilization The cost of liv-
ing of Chinese in towns where there
are Europeans has probably doubled
in the last few years"

to the enjoyment of speculation and
chance. For the qualification of this
instinct l do not know any more in
teresting study than the phlox when
one resorts to seeds for the growth of
plants. OF course, the staid, regular
garden worker will resort to cuttings,
because no one can guess, even ap-
proximately, what will come from the
seed venture.
But there is a lot of fun in taking
the seeds and watching the results.
They may be anything, from perverse
and wayward floral child to the light
of the garden when it is left to first
principles for it's start in life.
The phlox Drummondi is the first
parent of the family. It was found
growing wild in Texas back in 1884,
and since that time it has grown in
popularity. Essentially a garden flow
er, it fully justifes the use of the
Greek name because it is literally a
| flame of light. There is no question
| but that it is far better for having
| been planted in the fall. At the first
hint of spring it will start its growth,
and the hard treatment of rough win
| ter will not serve to deter it in its de-
termination to help brighten the world.
The one thing that phlox will not
stand is heavy clay soil. Planted
along walls and hedges, with borders
and in places where the irregular size
of the plants affords contrast in color,
| there is nothing more calculated to add
life to the garden vista than the simple

HOUSE PLANTS IN WINTER
BY 1. M. BENNINGTON.

Among the most beautiful and salts
factory house plants for winter are
palms. They are very strong and
hardy. and with the observation of
few simple rules can be kept green
and vigorous all winter. More palms
are killed by Overheating than by cold.
They should have a temperature of be-
tween so and 60 degrees. If it is not
convenient to have any room in the
house kept as cool at this, stand them
in the corner farthest from the ra-
diatOr, as close as possible to the light,
but not in the glaring sun.
The worst enemy of the plants is
dust. Owing to it's smooth leaves, the
palm can be readily kept free from
this. It's leaves should be washed
with soft sponge and lukewarm wa
ter.
The watering of the plants is of
great interest. The great danger is
that the housewife will be too gener-
ous in this respect. 1t is difficult to
give definite rule. Generally speak
Ing, the earth in the pot should be
kept moist, but not wet. If the room
Is kept at high temperature, the plant
will require more water than in a
cool place. But winter should be a
time of rest for the plant. 1t should
not do much growing, and therefore
nourishment and water should be given
sparinglS. It is easy to soak the soil
of a plant, but hard to dry it, once
thoroughly wet.
Neither palm, or any other plant,
should ever be put in a glazed pot. If
an ornamental pot is desired, the earth
en- pot should be set inside. porous

ture, while in a glazed pot the earth

Having temperature and moisture
right the next enemy of the plant is
parasites. such as fungi and insects.
Many little insect pests infest the
palm.~ Some of these are destroyed by
washing the leaves with a sponge and
soft brush, using clean water only.
Those that cannot be destroyed in
this way, such as scales, can be quick
ly dispatched by tobacco juice diluted
with water. Any tobaccOnist or cigar
manufacturer will give you all the

handful of these in quart of water
and boil. Wash the leaves with this

JAPAN WILL HELP CHINA
Will Float Big Loan Chinese Finan-
ciers Failed to Get in This
Country.

Japan is preparing to lend S30,00O.-
600 to China. This is the result of the
failure of China to float loan in
New York. Like ourselves, the Jap
anese have made money out of the war
and are able to extend credit to other
countries. This loan will strengthen
Japan's influence in China, but we
have 30 right to object. We would not
help China. Those who say Japan will
dominate China and that trade will
follow money are probably right. We
can learn something from Japan.
Just as China is within Japan's
sphere of influence so is all Latin
America within our sphere Of in
fuence. We have no designs on our
neighbors other than our desire to
trade with them and>to have peace in
This hemisphere. Most of the Latin
American republics need money quite
as much as China does. We have more
available capital than any other cOun-
try, perhaps more than all other ma
tons combined. The United States is
the only place where sufficient money
can he found at present to meet the
requirements of Latin America If we
invest money we will secure trade just
as We expect Japan TO do in China. In
stead of weeping about lost opportuni-
ties in the Orient let US improve our
own in the Americas. No cOmplica-
ions with other Great Powers about
open doors and spheres of influence
need be feared in this hemisphere anG
our exporters will find fewer difficult
ties in the languages and trade Gus

good reason for not losing others in
the Americas.-New York Commercial

JAPANESE GARDENS POPULAR

BY ELIZABETH VAN pENTHUYSEN
Just another way of saying that one
may make a pretty garden with COM
paratively little to put IN it is to call
attention to the Japanese idea of the
value of space in decorative effect.
1t is shown in the Japanese garden,
which, during this fall, is coming into
considerable vogue. Nippon art has
long taken the garden as it's chief
working ground. When travellers,
pushing curiously through the door
that Commodore Perry kicked open,
to the untold benefit of the unwilling
natives, first knew the island empire,
they called it the Flowery kingdom.
On all sides were to be found little
gardens-the individual effort of Jap
anese town dwellers. What most
gained attention was the fact that
these bright spots, giving a cOlOrful
effect to the entire communities, were
made by smartly placing very few
plants and flowers in artistic vessels,
and by relieving the blank spaces with
funny figures. carved to represent men
or animals.
The wooden frog in the center of the
little Japanese plot had all of the
space it needed, and the few others
scattered about in seemingly careless,
but actually very careful, arrange
ment, managed to fit into the plan to
leave The impression of lot of color
where really handful of flowers gave
the effect.
The same idea was to be found in
| their houses, where one daring. color
full drawing had an entire wall to it.
self, forcing the unoccupied space to
take on a decorative task that would
not have been esteemed possible in
other lands.
One of the popular figures of the
| Japanese garden that is being very
| much used because it so truly repre-
sents a real japanese idea, is the stone
| lantern, carved in numerous styles,
from the roughly chiseled effort of a
mere amateur to the most elaborate
| design of a skilled artisan,
