Cotton Industry in China.

China's cotton industry is being. rev.
olutionized by the introduction of Un-
Gle Sans most modern machinery and
methods. The first cotton mill is in
the republic using American power
and equipment and the latest methods
in spinning and weaving are now al
most ready in Tientsin. They are own
ed by the Yu Yuen and Wha Sing Tex
tile corporations, both financed by Chi
nese capital and employing only ma
tive labor. Construction on two more
plants, one for the Hou Sung Textile
company Of Shanghai, and the other
for the Dee Yee Textile company Of
Wuchang, has also been started The
capacity Of each of the mills at Tient-

the mills has capacity and equipment

Government Plans Vast Army of
Youths to Help Nation.
Working Reserve, Organization Of
Young Men Between Sixteen and
Twenty-one, to Aid Uncle Sam.

A drive to enroll 100000 boys in
| the United States Boys Working Re-
serve is in full swing. At the confer
ence of directors of the movement re-
Gently reports indicated that the vast
majority of high-school boys of Amer
lea will be enlisted in the registered
army Of patriotic youths between six.
teen and twenty-one years, organized
under the department Of labor to help
Uncle Sam in field and in factory, to
win the war.
The government at Washington in
making an inventory of possible sour
ces of labor supply has discovered a
great war labor reservoir in the shape
of boys. There are more than 5,OOO,-
600 youths between the ages of sixteen
and twenty-one, of whom nearly 2,000,-
600 either are idle for substantial
part of the year or are employed in
some occupation which does not help
to win the war.
This is the boy power that the Bows
Working Reserve is mobilizing. Every
boy who jumps in and helps do the
work of soldier who has gone to the
front has chance to earn bronze
badge of honor bearing the great seal
Of the United States, numbered and
with his name, in the ar
chives at Washington. The national
insignia can be earned in anyone of |
three separate units-agricultural, in
lustrial or vocational training.
Farm training camps each to con-
tain 90 to 100 boys, for intensive in
Struction in agriculture were recon-
nended to the conference of one state
oy the committee on national inten.
'lve training. It recommends also:
"That there shall be established in
agricultural colleges or schools courses
If training in agriculture, and that in
high schools and in other schools
where there are boys of sixteen years
# age and over, there shall be estab-
ished like courses to secure a reason
lble efficiency among the boys for
work upon the FARMS"
All the schools are to be given a
hance to cooperate in every patriotic
ndeavor of the states and nation.

PARCEL POST
CoaSt-WiSe Water Routes Have
Been Established.
Facilitates Service to Uncle Sans
Various cantonments, Relieving
Railroad Congestion.

The post Office department has es
tablished cOastwiSe parcel post watel
routes-primarily to facilitate servic,
for Uncle Sans cantonments-whicl
will operate to relieve the wartime
railroad congestion and expedite serv
ice for the general public.
In the present congested condition OF
transportation practically as prompt
service is to be obtained by water
routes to certain points as by rail, and
the railroads may by that means be
considerably relieved.
Steamer routes for parcel post have
been established from:
Boston to Norfolk,
Boston to Savannah,
New York to Norfolk,
New York to Charleston,
New York to Jacksonville,
New York to Savannah
New York to New Orleans,
New York to Galveston,
Philadelphia to Savannah,
Philadelphia to Jacksonville,
Baltimore to Savannah,
Baltimore to Jacksonville.
Special delivery, insured, perishable,
parcels too large for inclusion in sacks,
and eggs will not be carried on these
routes. All parcels will be placed in
bonded storerooms on the steamers,
and both the shipping and delivery Of
the parcels will be in charge of postal
agents.
About four carloads of parcels were
previously handled daily over these
routes, thus releasing that number of
cars for general transportation service.
1t is expected that this service will
amount to several train loads daily,
which will aid materially to relieve
freight congestion.
The department in various ways is
contributing to the relief Of the rail-
road situation, in cooperation with the |
roads, as far as it can without interfer- |
ing with the prompt delivery Of mail.
A considerable saving of cars and
the occupation of car space in depots
Is being accomplished by routing
through cars for long distances where
it has been the practice to transfer
