IAPAN'S AMBITION
INTERESTS POWERS

The Foreign Offices of European Gov
ernments, as well as the State Depart
ments at Washington, are taking an inter
est in the strong movement in Japan fo1
the assumption of hegemony over Asia
Japanese publications which reach here
from time to time show that writer's in
Japan are persistently demanding radica
change in the foreign policy of the Toxic
government. Their slogan appears to be
''Asia for the Asiatics.
One of the boldest of these utterances
is by the editor in chief of the Chuwc
koron Central Review, Mr.. Unosuke
Wakamiya, who has national reputa-
ton as a sociologist. In concluding his
article, which contains many structures
on Western powers and Western civiliza-
ton, the Japanese editor says:
''In short, Westerners exclude Asiatics
wherever possible. They take every OPP
portunity to establish their powers,
whether in the West or in the East, by
robbing the Asiatics of their future
Westerners are selfish and self-centered.
The fate of Asia is now hanging in the
balance. Either the Asiatics must sub
nit to the selfish will of the Westerners
or strike out for themselves by establish
ing a Great Asia policy to restrain the
WeSterners.

HIS STOPS HAIR
FROM FALLING OUT

Ever count the dead hairs in your comb and
brush? They are natures warning of future
badness and proof that the dangerous dandruff
germ is busy on your scalp. 1t was a famous
Paris physician who first discovered that dan
druff and falling hair are caused by microbe.
Then came the discovery of the value of
Partisan Sage (liquid form) in destroying the
dandruf germ and promptly preventing the
further loss of hair. The effect of only three
days use of Partisan Sage is simply marvel
GUS, and the American people have now awak.
ened to the fact that they can be quickly rid OF
dandruff and save their hair by using Partisan
Sage.
Partisan Sage is sold by A. A. Howes Co
and good druggists everywhere. Its inexpen-
sive. daintily perfumed. free from sickness,

THE SWEET CORN CROP.

So profoundly impressed am with the
feeling that this is not year in which to
take chances, that it seems only right to
urge the growing of the safest crops for
the locality and farm, Under conditions
heretofore existing, man could take
some risk, but this is not the year to
gamble any more than one must, who
takes chances with nature. Every good
business proposition forces the lesson of
conservation of energies aud crops that
one may produce most, hampered as one
must be by labor and transportation con-
ditions. 1t will be well if the motto this
wear is "only the safest and surest crops
for me-" No matter what this cuts out,
no matter how other interests may be af-
fected, the one thing for the farmer is to
think of his own necessities A tremen-
dous effort is to be made to get big
acreage of sweet corn for the factories,
and where, as in some limited sections, it
has proved a safe crop, it will be well to
plant to the fuII ability of the farm, but
taking the State as whole, it cannot
compare for a moment with yellow corn
for certainty of crop; therefore, it will be
well to cling to the surest and safest
With yellow corn selling for 81. 40 bushel,
there is more money in it than in sweet
corn at three cents. 1t looks like high
prices for canned corn, and packers should
be ready to give the growers the boost in
price which is theirs by right. The sea-
sons outlook, the labor problem, the COM
plicatons facing the farmer, all combine
to force lesson from a differing view
point than in former years, and so long as
these abnormal conditions prevail, they
must be taken into account by him who
must support his family from the products
of the farm. The first and only safe rule
this year is to grow the food of support
for the family and let the surplus come
from these same crops, for they are what
the hungry ones of town and city need
most.

Things Worth Saving.

One of the prominent local junk men
informed us that wiping rags, such as old
dish cloths, window cloths, handkerchiefs,
towels and cloth of this kind is worth
S425 per hundred pounds to the house.
keeper, over three times as much as he
was giving year ago. The price of this
sort of rags used to be S1.6O 1t pays
the man or woman to save all the old
magazines, too, for the junk man will
give SITS per hundred pounds today,
wherein only year or so ago, he gave 40
cents Magazines are heavy and it only
takes comparative few to weigh hun
dred pounds. The average magazine will
bring from one to two cents as Junk.
Newspapers to sell at the regular price
should be folded and made into piles about
one foot high, tied securely by string
and kept dry until the junk man appears.
He will give you 80 cents for hundred
pounds of newspaper, wherein two
years ago he only paid 20 cents. Your
old clothing that has passed beyond re-
pair is still worth money; the rag man
will give you as much as $3.50 for every
hundred pounds, about five times as much
paid was SIPS.
Soft wooden cloths and rags are also
worth great deal, having advanced in
price from IL cents per pound to Is IL
cents This is the price that the junk
man will give you at your. home. This
class of rags has gone down in price some
what, as only short time ago the price
the rag men were paying housekeepers
was II cents per pound. There is no in
dication, however, that the price will
continue to drop; instead, there is every
reason to believe that the price will once
more edge toward the II cent mark again.
Brass is also taking wings; six
months ago dealers give six cents per
pound, today they will pay you II cents
per pound, Copper will bring you 81
cents per pound now, whereas but few
months ago you would have onlyreceived
IL cents for the same amount.
Rubber has remained about the same in
price for some time, but there is every in
dication to believe that it will soon join
the aeroplane group. One dealer has
several tons of old rubbers stored away,
simply awaiting a rise. Your old auto
mobile tire is worth about six cents per
pound; two years ago it was worth four
cents, last year five cents and now six,
with the prospect that within month it
will be worth seven cents per pound
When considering how prices for waste
material have risen, one should remember
that the prices given above are what the
rag man or junk dealer will give you.
He, when selling the material that he has
gathered, still makes tidy little sum-
