AIDS IN HUNT FOR BUDDHA
Chinese Government Assists in Search
for Youth in Whom Soul of Hutuh.
ktu Is Reincarnated.

Peking.-One Of the important civ
ing Buddhas' of Mongolia, the old
Kanchurwa Hutuhktu, recently died
anG his senior disciple, Lama Axe
wangyenlinpuleh, is now in Peking
preparing to make a pilgrimage into
Tibet in search Of n young boy in
whom the soul of the old Hutuhktu
has been reincarnated.
The Chinese government has grant
ed the Lama the use of private car
to the end Of the government railway
in Mongolia, and from that point he
will proceed by caravan into Tibet,
where he will search for a young
Buddha to replace his old master.
Inquiries will be made by him in
Tibet for boys born in a miraculous
way, with divine signs, such as a red
light or other forms of supposed dl-
vine manifestations, at about the time
the old Hutuhktu passed away. All
the boys thus obtained will be then
carried to Lhassa, where their names
will be written on slabs Of wood and
placed in n golden urn. The boy
whose name Is first drawn out after
due ceremony will be declared the re-
embodiment of the dead Buddha.

FARMERS URGED
TO SHOP EARLY
Nationwide Campaign to Pro-
mote Earlier Buying of
Supplies.
CAR SHORTAGE The REASON
Congested Condition Of Railroads
Urged 40 Reason Why Farmers
Should Purchase Supplies in
Time for Spring Planting.

New York.-A nationwide campaign
to promote earlier buying and ship
ping of fertilizers, seeds, lime, farm
machinery and other supplies and ma
terials for spring use has been started
by the National Fertilizer association
here, in order that the goods may be
moved and delivered to the farmers in
time for use this spring. On account
of the congested condition and lack Of
cars on the railroads, indications are
that unless earlier shipments than
usual are made the supplies will not be
delivered in time for use. Without the
necessary supplies, serious damage
would be caused by next years crops.
To Extend Shipping Season.
By calling attention to the serious
car shortage, it is hoped that the nor
NAL shipping season of six or eight
weeks may be extended over three
months, enabling the railroads to move
the plantfood, seeds, lime and other
supplies before the spring planting sea-
son opens.
Shipping conditions have been grow
ing worse instead of better, according
to the announcement made by Presi-
dent Horace Bowker of the National
Fertilizer association. The car short
age on September l was 10000 freight
cars, he said On October l, the short
age had increased to 10000 cars, on
November l to 10000 cars and on De-
cember l to approximately 10000 cars.
The usual practice Of farmers has
been to delay ordering their spring
supplies for fertilizer until just before
the season opened, thus crowding 80
per cent Of the shipments Of fertilizer
for spring crops into period Of from
six weeks to two months.
Manufacturers declare that it will be
for the railroads to move
the 4,5OO,OOO tons normally used each
spring, unless supplies are purchased
earlier than ever before.
Some Of the Advantages.
Other advantages Of early ordering
and shipping are that farmers are able
to haul the supplies to their farms be-

Wars Effects on TOymakInp.

In the last peace year Germany's
toy trade amounted to S35,OOOOOO, OF
which more than $25,0O0,OOO was ex-
port business, mostly to the United
Stares. Since the war this figure has
dropped nearly two-thirds. Before the
war 100000 Germans were employed
in toymaking. In 1913 exports Of toys
to the United States amounted to SlO,-
100000, the volume has now declined
TO less than S2,5OO,OOO. Allies are max
ing toys and 1900 kinds of German
toys are now being manufactured In
England, while one factory In France
has manufactured $1,0OO0O0 worth OF
dolls. japanese competition, too, in

SCENES LINGER YET
EVENTS ONE RECALLS FROM OLD
VOLUMES.
by No Means Always the Most impor'
tant Things Recorded That Remain
In the Memory After a
Lapse Of Time.

There Is n peculiar pleasure In striv-
ing to remember something Of books
enjoyed years ago and never read
again. Il happened with us, and may
with most people. that In many In
/ stances one or two scenes, one or two
gestures, starting out Of II sort of fog,
stand for the whole book. There are
numerous fogs and each one has It's
own quality.
All that is left 10 us OF Rob Roy"
Don Marquis writes in the New York
Sun, Its a woman with broadsword in
her hnnd who stands upon rocky way
that Overhangs a lake and screams
forth vehement command. Someone,
we believe. is about to be cast over the
precipce mt this furious lady's order.
The earth round about Is reddish
brown and overhead the clouds are
moving rapidly.
"Bleak House" is a woman who clings
to an iron gate and peers through It's
bars. And we have also some faint rec
objection OF an echo that was like the
footstep of a sentinel ghost. The fog
from which emerges the woman at the
iron gate is more than fog; II is a black
vapOr-inky black.
We cannot see the heroine OF Lorna
Doone" ut all, but we still know how
John Rldd felt when he all but
drowned in a swirllng, icy pool; we can
still see him as he bends er and tries
TO catch little fish with his fingers in
the cold brook just before he falls into
the pool. The pale glitter Of faint
sun upon shaken drops of water and IA
sense of much snow and rain generally
are our only other Impressions Of the
book.
'"fom Sawyer" is n boy cropping and
fearing in cave; of Toms humorous
pranks we remember nothing. "Huckle-
berry Finn" we almost know by heart
but then we have read it a dozen
times.
In "Toilers of the Sea-" where the
man is seized by the devilfish as he
himself is hunting crabs to eat, Hugo
elaborately builds up a scene which is
the epitOme of the whole tremendous
book and the symbol Of the gaunt eter-
nal struggle between man and nature
(animate and inanimate) which the
book dramatizes. And yet, for all HUI
gOs craft and power, that scene thrills
us less-speaks less stirringly to our
blood and nerves-than one incident
of far less significance in the same vol
ume.
This incident, which stirs us more,
deals merely with the murder of a
guard on the edge of a cliff that over
looks the sea. 1t is thing that in no
wise touches the moral bones of the
story; it is not essential to the struc-
ture of the tale as tale; another de-
vice might have been used If Hugo had
not evidently fancied this one for his
own sake. But it gets itself remem-
bered. The deviifish scene, informed
though it is of the essential spirit of
the book expressed in the terms of ply
sical conflict, will have left us long be-
fore we forget the coastguardsman'
murder.

MCasketn Factory.

The fact was revealed at the Rhond-
da tribunal recently that at Treorchy,
colllery village in Rhondda valley,
one Of the largest coffin industries in
the kingdom is carried on.
1t was stated that these works,
which contain % machines, can turn
out 80 to 100 coffins in six hours. In
America cOftins are now called caskets.
Before the war coffins were exported to
all parts Of the world, but naturally lit
tie business is done in this direction
nowadays. Nevertheless, between 200
and 300 coffins are turned out weekly.
Practically all the cofIins. necessitat-
ed by big disasters are provided by

Some of it they will save; some of it
they can invest in liberty bonds some
of it they will pay to the government
in indirect war taxes.
The government will not receive
license money from the distillers and
the brewers, it is true. if the business
is abolished But the people will make
UP the deficiency, with part Of the
very same money with which they
would pay the liquor license tax in
directly. In addition to supplying the
money to pay the distiller's and the
