When asked about the high cost o!
living in Japan. Mr.. Suzuki laugh I'd
heartily and replied that SO far as he
knew the menu Of the Japanese Ia
borer had not changed very greatly in
many years He stated that rice was
still the principal food while some
fish and few vegetables were eaten
and that the foods were purely home
grown and consequently not affected
by food speculation.
Conditions Improving.
II am pleased to tell you," said Mr.
Suzuki, last night, that conditions
throughout Japan are improving rap
idly. 1aboring conditions are becom-
ing better and the Japanese people OF
all classes are endeavoring to raise
the standard OF living. Luxuries are
beginning to creep into the homes and

When asked about the Japanese at

the struggle with their troops sooner
or later. Mr.. Suzuki said:
Will Fight If Need Be.
I'VE all hate war and every Jap
anese hates to think that they will
have to take up arms again. The,
know that it means the loss Of life and
Of money and they know that II
means the increasing of the national
debt. But they also know what the
present struggle means and if it be-
comes necessary for Japan to enter
the struggle, I know that the people
will offer their services very will
ingly."
Using American Methods.
Mr.. Suzuki declared that the mines
Of Japan were now just beginning to
be worked and that there were vast
amounts of metal lying in the noun
tains all over the island and that the
American methods in handling the
ores.
Labor Is still very cheap in Japan
MIR. Suzuki said. THE average wage
of the laborer in the mines is about 80
cents in American money. or course
you must remember that it does not
cost very much for the Japanese la
borer to live and thus he can get
along on so cents a day.
MIR. Suzuki is connected with the
Mitsubishi company. which is one of
the largest construction and mining
companies in Japan. He is graduate
of Toxic university and is n member
of the American Institute of Mining
Engineers. He is one of the few Jap

the organization.
This is his first visit to this coun-

SUCCESS IN SIGHT

We are beginning to realize, more
than ever before, the great truth Of
General Lees statement that DUTY is
the noblest word in the English Ian
krage." We are also beginning to APP
preciate, more and more each day, the
Impressive fact that for each of US
every man, every woman, and even
for every child, there is an emphatic
duty to perform during this solemn
period in our nations history.
Time was when war was largely a
matter of brute force and generalship;
bet now there is involved and require l
brain as well as Drawn, food as well
as firearms, and money as well as men.
Time was when wars were fought and
won almost entirely on the battlefield;
but now the greatest victories are
achieved in the homes, on the farms,
and in the banking departments. Time
was when the burden rested almost al
together on the soldier in the RANKS;
serving in some important capacity.
and contributing to the general result
equally with the man who risks his
life before the enemy,
The greatest duty Immediately con1
fronting the people of the United
States is the absorption of the second
Liberty Loan. That loan is necessary
for the successful financing of the
war, and for the vindication of the
patriotism of the American people.
The Kaiser is rejoicing now because
his people, though called upon for the
fourth time, have just responded to
another appeal for a similar loan, and
it would give him great cause for
gloating, if the American citizens, on
their second call, were to fail in their
signal duty
The indications are now that the Lib
erly Loan will be hoated If it isn't
it will be an everlasting reproach on
the people of the country, and on
those especially who could have re-
sponded more freely than they have

A COLUMN or CLIPPINGS
the Farmer in the Lureh.

Leaving the Farmer in the Lureh.
The evidence accumulates day by
day that the farmers of Georgia have
not had the cooperation they deserve
in carrying out the campaign of food
conservation initiated last spring.
Never before perhaps was there
slch an effort made to induce the
farmers to grow foodstuffs, in order
that we and the allies in Europe should
have supplies for carrying on the
world war, The urgency of the situa-
ton was preached from the pulpit and
trumpeted in the newspapers and the
farmers, with very negligible excep-
tons, rose to the occasion.
They planted less cotton. though
today it is worth more than it has
ever been since the Civil War They
planted instead, corn and peas and
turnips and potatoes; they grew hay
and grain and garden truck in rich
abundance.
In hundreds of instances, these
farmers now have many times more
food than they can possibly consume,
and yet they are unable to find
market for their produce at prices
such as they are entitled to receive.
Every housekeeper knows only too
well that the prices of food have not
declined in the cities and towns, SO
the explanation Of this unfortunate
situation lies in the fact that the
market facilities have not kept pace
with the increase in production.-Ma

THE FOLLY OF THE FARMER

The richest class Of citizens in the
United States, just at this time, is the
farmer.
In proportion to his investment, the
farmer is reaping the biggest returns.
He is enjoying a greater degree @
prosperity than is known to those in
any other trade or profession.
As Hon. Edgar Watkins declared in
his Liberty Bond speech here yester-
day, The farmer is getting the most
and paying the least"
Yet, if the farmer does not do his
duty by the Liberty Bond issue he is
liable to wish he had.
Cotton is a munition. Other munt
ton makers are taxed as high as sixty
per cent. OF. their profits.
Suppose a farmer should be taxed
the same way on his cotton He
would pay eight or ten cents a pound
forty or fifty dollars bale. Then
the farmer would think the war came
within sherman's definition, sure
enough.
And there is this much about tiff
the government is unable to finance
this war by bond issues, then it will
resort to direct taxation, and the tax
will reach into places and quarters
where it was never seen before,
The farmers of Sumter county are
nc more indifferent to the success of
the present bond issue than are the
farmers elsewhere in Georgia and
throughout the country. Their apathy,
heir coldness, on the subject is typical
of the farmer everywhere. But for
their own future good, they ought
to perceive the folly of their policy.
1t is liable to react, to be a boomerangi
