MUSIC OF OLD JAPAN.

That gifted American, the Rev.
George M. Rowland of Sapporo, Japan,
has prepared an edition OF the Halle
lujah chorus in popular Japanese
which has been published to sell for
about 15c. He also has published a
cantata and other Christmas music in
addition to valuable contributions to
the Japan Hymnal." DIR. Rowland is
one Of the American boards staff in
Japan and has been in Sapporo since
1885. He ia specially honored by the
Japanese for his command of their
language, which they say is wonder
full. and for his statesmanlike judg-
ment and understanding Of their ma
tional problems. DR.. 'Rowland's sta
northern island of Hokkaido, but he is
often asked to visit Toxic when dis
tinguished guests arrive from Eng
land and America. to act as interpre-
ter on official occasions and at social
functions. He also is frequently con-
suited by Japanese religious leaders
in preference to native pastors, on
questions Of policy and educational
developments.
p, His hyrnnal is a remarkable produc-
ton 1t is a union affair. having been
prepared by an interdenOminational
committee OF both japanese and for
eigners, headed by the Rev. George
Allchin OF the American board as
chairman. It contains all the famous
Christian hymns from "a Charge to
Keep Have" right through the al
piabet' to zion Stands With Hills
Surrounded" England, France, Ger
many, Portugal-all the western ma
tons will find their favorite hymns re-
produced as to music with the famil-
lar words translated into Japanese.
The hymnal also has a small portion
of hymns by Japanese writer's set to
old Japanese tunes. which are usually
in minor strain. Mr.. Allchin has been
very ingenious in devising scheme
which introduced both the Sofia sys-
tenn and the staff notation in print
ing the music. He has also made a
great many of the translations, and is
undoubtedly the leading hymnologist
in Japan today.
The music OF old Japan was quite
different from that of the western
world, the singing being done in an
artificial voice and the airs being min
or and weird in character. A great
deal OF attention Is now given in pub
lie and private schools to the study of
western music. The schools support
ed by the American woman's boards
have made much Of music. and some
women mission teachers are preparing
book Of anthems, to befbrought UNI
der the Christian Literature Society
of japan. The government normal
schools train their pupils to use west
ern methods Of teaching music, and
many familiar tunes are heard in the
public schools. japanese verses have
been set to the western notes-for in
stance an American gentleman long
resident in japan declares that every
schoolboy in Nippon sings Aud Lang
Syne" as Justify as IL he lived only
"tral miles fra Drumtochty," though
different sets of words are applied" in
different districts.

The straight line, with no suggestion OF
fitting, is the proper thing for the small
girl e. wen a. Cor her betwixt and be-
tween sister. The point Is well taken In
this good looking dress in coat effect, No.
S226. There are good points to the deep
collar and cuffs also. The wide bands at
the sidea conceal convenient pockets, and
the short belts in front and back hold the
sides Of the coat in place. Fancy buttons
form the only other decoration. The plain
gathered skirt is separate from the waist.
Both long and short sleeves are given in
the pattern, the choice being D matter of
individual taste. For the material good
selection would be Bingham, chambray,
cotton gabardine, basket cheviot or novelty
weaves; In woollens, Scotch plaids, shep-
herd checks or striped serge. II

HASH IN A CLASS BY ITSELF;

"There was a time not long ago
when the manager of a hotel regard
ed hash as the cheapest dish that
could be produced, and it was q
standing privilege of the boarders
to joke the hash, said hotel man
today. But you bet things have
changed now and hash is one of
the Injuries of the day; almost
equal to eggs in the luxury class
Potatoes $500 a bushel, beef 90
to 80 cents pound and onions Il
cents a pound. If a landlord serves

Henry Sprung sold his 200 acre
farm in Garfield township this EeeE
to John Weber of Ridley county 5or
$50 30 an acre. This farm has been
in the family since 1868 wheu 1t
was purchased by Mr.. Sprung 5
father tunsight, unseen, for sou
an acre. 1t had changed hands twice
before that since being government
land. Durirg these Az years Lit Ras
been a good producing farm. For
several years Mr.. Sprung has rent
ed it. but except in the past two
wears when prices for products
were abn@rmally high the interest

canal the interest obtainable on
$50. so am acre-hence it's sale. I'm
less used as home land at ao-
normally high prices does not re
turn interest on the investment
except in war years with good crops
along with the high prices. OF course
there is always the possibility oil
added value which has in the past
been large but the future may not
see any important change in mar
ket prices of real estate of average
location and average production.

The worst enemies of the farm
ers. fruit growers and foresters are
the vast number of insects which
deyour the results of their labor
There are now about ,000,0 900 spe-
cies of insects affecting the world,
100000 of which we know very
little about. Some of these insects
increase at an enormous rate. PROF.
Fitch once computed the number o.
plant lice on a single cherry tree
ten feet high to be twelve million.
Twenty thousand chinch bugs have
been found in a small club of bunch
grass eight inches in diameter
One pair of hopaphis If unchecked
would in one year multiply to the
inconceivable number of ten Sextil-
lions. One pair OF gypsy moth would
produce enough young in eight
years to destroy all the foliage in
the United States A single pair OF
Colorado beetle, without check,
would multiply in one season to six
ty millions. The enormous increase
Is not more startling than the re-
markable food requirements. Many
caterpillars consume twice their
weight in leaves per day, which
would correspond to an ordinary
horse eating over ton of hay
day. An ordinary baby consuming
food at the rate OF certain arya
would eat one thousand four hum
bred pounds of food in day.
Since 1863 the annual loss caus-
ed by insects has increased from
5000. 100000 to 100000, BOO in
1914. The insect and rodent pests
pests at this date destroy annually
