FINDS CHINESE WHO
KNOW HOW TO LIVE

Washington, June 17.-United

Peking has made discovery. He has
found Chinese who do not eat rice nor
streets and comfortable buildings; He
has found country where wheat
bread, and beef and mutton, American
style, are the chief foods for Yah
Sing WINS and Al Lun Suns tables:
In the provinces of Shansi, Shensi
and Kansu, sitting back in the isolated
sections of the northwest country:
there are thousands of acres of land
planted in wheat, Indian corn, alfalfa.
millet and cotton. Although the land
has been cultivated for thousands Of
years, it still produces from 80 to 40
bushels of wheat to the acre. ne
saws that when railroad transporta-
ton is built for this section one of
the richest regions of China will be
opened to foreign markets.
