SMART CLOTHES PREFERRED.
Japan Regarded as Good Market fol-
Foreign-Style Apparel.

In no other country do the young
men or the business men of standing
spend more in proportion to their in
come for the purpose of making a
smart appearance than in Japan, ac-
cording to a report issued by the bu-
reau of foreign and domestic commerce.
The report estimates that at least
one in every four or five male Japanese
is now wearing western clothing This
means from 100000 to 5000, 900 per-
sons. and the number is rapidly in
creasing. 1t is evident. therefore, that
there is a large market for foreign
style clothes, wherever made--in Japan,
England. Germany or America. 1t is
also evident that this market is rap
idly increasing. At the time the war
started at least two countries-Ger-
many and England--were managing to
supply Japan with a large amount of
ready owear clothing. They were do
ing this at prices generally much in
excess of the Japanese made products
and selling them in the keenest compe-
tition with the Japanese articles, be-
cause of the superior quality of mate
rial or the workmanship, or both.
According to the report. the Japanese
like to dress well and in as strict con-
formity as possible with the best pre-
vailing fashions, whether in their ma
tive or In adopted foreign costume
They are not economical in the sense
that they will wear old or inferior
clothes. They wish always to make a
neat or "natty' appearance, with good
lines in their coats and trousers, and

sturdy defense was all the Griffmen
could stand. Held scoreless by the
locals for eighteen innings the Chicago

day hoped on Shaw and Ayers for
total of sixteen hits and eleven runs,
being aided by no fewer than half
dozen misplays.
Shaw had difficulty in getting the
ball over the plate, and when he did
the Sox hammered it. amassing seven
safeties and six runs in the five In
nings he worked. Ayers, on the con-
trary. had perfect control, but nothing
else nine hits and five runs being the
toll collected by the visitors off his de-
livery.
Joe Benz, who was in the box for the
Windy city brigade. was no puzzle. his
delivery being combed for ten safe
wallops that produced four runs. but
always having a big lead he never was
In any real danger.
The one bright spot from a local
standpoint was a terrific wallop to
right center for three bases by How
ard Shanks in the fourth inning with
two runners on the paths. The ball
went a mile high and fell out near the
scoreboard Had the drive been
straiehtened out it would have clear
ed the Enclosure. Joe Judge got back
into the game after an absence of
three days and signalized his return
by drawing a walk and cracking out
two hits in five trips to the plate.
Leonard also got chance to cavort,
going to third in the eighth inning
when Foster went over to second to
relieve Morgan because Rays collapst-

These are the factors in the produc-
ton and use of food. and our FOOD ad-
ministration will attempt to increase
The efficiency Of all four. 1t is now
possible to set forth In general way
how this will be done.
Price fixing will affect all of these
factors. and because 1t Is large anu
little understood subject, will be as
cussed separately in the next artlcae.
To stimulate production Is the nrst
necessity. Besides assuring the farmer
of a good price for his products inc
government will attempt to help MN
by teaching him better meth0ds
through the county agents OF tne pe
partment of Agriculture. the number or
which will be greatly increased. and 1t
will assure him of an adequate supply
Of seed at a reasonable price.
Labor is the great problem In pro-
duction, not only in the United States.
but all over the world. Even Germany
has more land than she can cultivate.
The Department of Agriculture eX-
meets to solve this problem largely by
making a survey of farm labor and
facilitating its distribution. The de-
partment is placing a man in each state
to work in cooperation with a state
central board to this end. Farmers VIII
be encouraged to cooperate with each
other. to share their labor. and to buy
1abor-saving machinery co-operatlveiy.
Efforts will be made to facilitate the
seasonal distribution of labor, TO see
that the men who moved the Kansas
wheat crop in June will go north IN
time. TO pick apples.
