 BROUGHT FORM THE
 ORIENT BY JAPANESE

It is landscape in colors made entirely of embroidered silk cally woven from bright green silk and stand out startlingly realistic. Since on the trees alone there are several colors, one gets an idea of the amount of work required in mak- ing such landscape.

Germany, on the other hand, need
not figure In such map for Amerl-

cation that we shall be called on at ell
to take thought for the food needs of
Germany. Germany probably can care
for her own food problem If she is

to distribute food to the cities with
dense populations, which are the trou-
Bile centers.
England, France, the Netherlands

have sufficient food to meet immediate

Gus difficulties. The same is true of
Spain and the northern neutral coun-

Bohemia, Serbia, Roumania and
Montenegro have already reached the
famine point and are suffering heavy
toll Of death. The Armenian popula.
ton Is falling each week as hunger
takes its toll, and in Greece, Albania

shortages that famine Is near. AL
though starvation Is not yet imminent,
Italy, Switzerland, Bulgaria and Tur-
key are In the throes Of serious strin-

TRACTORS TO BE DEMONSTRATED

The farm tractor Is coming to play
4 more and more important part in the
work of the farm. The high cost OF
feed and work animals and the large
amount of necessary idleness of work
animals make the tractor a more eco
nomical source of power on many
farms. The College of Agriculture of
he University of Kentucky is giving
specia! attention to farm tractors and
has a considerable number of different
makes which will be used in demon
strations during Farmers Week at the
College, January 2S to 81.
1t should prove intensely interesting
to farmers to be able to see the lead
ing makes Of tractors all together and
doing various classes of work.
