JAPAN RAPIDLY
 DEVELOPS TRADE
Correspondence of The Associated
 pyacc

Correspondence of The Associated
 Press.)
 Sydney, May 2.-Japan has made great strides in developing her trade with Java since the beginning of the war and is now extending her com mercial advantages there, says R.. Rryver, of Sourabay. Java, an expert upon far Eeastern affairs.
 'The cutting off of European sup plies by the war;" said Dr. Drvver, forced Java to rely upon Japanese and Australian markets and these trade routes will not now suffer from the resumption of European ac- tivities. To my mind the East should should be independent of the west in trade. Japanese concentration in the Pacific puts in strong light her am- bition to secure commercial mastery in eastern waters"
 Mir. Dryver recently was commits stoned by the Dutch government to investigate the government of the Philippine Islands with a view to pos sible changes in the government of Java which would effect 40,O0O,OOO Javanese. He will recommend a number of changes but said it would not be an easy matter to treat the Javanese as the Filipinos were treat ed because there was marked differ ence in intelligence between the two races. This was in favor of the Fill pinos.
 He expressed the opinion that it would not be possible to grant inde- pendence to the Filipinos for some years. "The passing of the present generation will see it's introduction, he said. Considerations of the safety of the United States influence the withholding of this concession to the archipelago"

4 SANE NEW ENGLAND VIEW OF
 SOUTHERN COTTON CONDITIONS

1 futures. The cotton grower should guard against the disasters which are the penalty of such gambling by first securing from his land the living of himself and family, and then devoting the balance to that wisely equaliZed production which is the surest guar antee of prosperity.
 Uniform Crop Desirable.
 Indeed, the policy which, in the long run, will assure the largest measure of profit for both grower and i spinner is the one which, with due regard for the increase in consump- tive demand that keeps pace with growth in population, will from year to year make reasonably certain a crop of uniform volume and quality. A bumper crop one year and small crop another year spell loss for both grower and spinner. A small crop means abnormal prices. When it is followed by bumper crop, the spin ner who has bought his raw product at these abnormal prices faces de- moralizing cancellation of orders or is compelled to fight for business with competitors quick to take advantage of the slump in values which inevit- ablvwaits upon an extraordinary crop And then the grower, poorly rewarded for his time and labor, planes the shipper and the spinner because the bottom, so to speak, has fallen out of things.
 "Let the growers first thought be not the number of acres he shall or shall not plant to cotton, but the quality of the cotton he is to grow on his land Let him exercise the utmost care in the selection of seed. Cotton of less than seven-eighths of an inch staple, as you know, is of about the same spinning value as the bulk of the cotton of India and China When you raise cotton of this grade, you place yourself in competition with the inferior product and the under paid labor of the Orient. It is not, therefore, economic folly of the first order to grow cotton in America that, by reason of it's grade and staple. ranks in the markets of the world with the cotton of India and China ?"
 In this statement MT. Wilson took very strong ground in regard to the necessity of diversifying Southern agriculture and increasing the pro- duction of food supplies. When the South follows the advice given by MT. Wilson, which is in harmony with the position taken for many years by the Manufacturers Record, to produce first of all food and fends stuff and then make cotton it's surplus crop, it cannot raise too much cotton. If cotton were selling at 50 cents pound it would be wiser in the long run for the South to raise it's own foodstuffs and make cotton it's sur plus crop than to concentrate all of its energy on cotton raising.
 We are glad to have from one of the officials of the association re- presenting the cotton-mill industry of New England statement so directly in harmony with the posi- tion of the Manufacturers Record, statement which is in such svm- pathetic interest with the Southern grower as that which we have quoted from MT. Wilson.

Directly contrary to the unjust criticism of some New England peo- pie and papers against the South and the effort of. this section to develop it's diversified agriculture instead of concentrating it's farm activities SC largely upon cotton, is recent ad- dress by Mr. Rufus R. Wilson, Secre- tary of the National Association of Cotton Manufacturers, representing practically the entire cotton-mill in- dustry of the East. MT. Wilson has very sane understanding of the Southern situation, and the spirit of his address delivered before the Texas Cotton Association is entirely diff ferent from the spirit of the state ment recently issued by MT. Dudfee, Chairman of the Cotton-Buying Com- mittee of the New England Cotton Association We believe that MT. Wilson and not MT. Durfee. repre- sents the intelligent views of the intel ligent cotton mill men of New Eng land, notwithstanding some of the unjust criticisms which the South has to endure from a few papers who think like MT. Durfee.
 No More Cheap Cotton.
 After discussing the labor situa- tion throuohout this country, MT. Wilson said
 "This is why low-priced cotton is no longer to be looked for or advo- cated, for it spells benefit for neither the grower, the shipper nor the spin ner. Neither does it seem to us of the North that the present is an oppor- tune time to seriously consider re- stricting cotton acreage. We believe, instead that the grower will most effectively serve his own interest if hereafter he makes cotton his servant. not his master. One of your ablest and most far-seeing publicists de- clared not long ago, with careful weighing of his words, that if would be, infinitly better for the South if it had never raised bale of cotton. He no doubt meant that, by permitting itself to become a one-crop section. the South had fallen into the habit of thinking in terms of cotton, of basing it's activities on cotton, and of rais- ing cotton primarily for the purpose of buying foodstuffs from other sec tions. It is full time that such system should join the things re- jected, because they have been weigh ed in thebalance and found wanting.
 What should take it's place. Adop- tion of the balanced, well-considered methods which one of your agricul- tural leaders has aptly described as safe farming By safe farming is meant the planting of a sufficient acreage of food and feed crops to sustain the family and the livestock, and the remainder to cotton, where the latter can be grown to advantage and with profit. Thus the planter secures a rotation of crops on the same land. and bv so doing conserves and maintains soil fertility, which, as you know. is rapidly exhausted by planting land continuously to one crop. In other words, have constant care for the quality of your soil, thus growing larger and better crops on fewer acres. Produce on the farms of the South the food and feed of the South. The man who stakes his all on a single crop is gambler in

SYSTEMATIC PLANNING
lessons THE HOUSE
CLEANING LABORS

:. : :. :. :. :. :. : :. :. : :. :. : :. : :.
/ Better equipment and more syste-
matte planning help the housekeeper
to do her cleaning more easily and
| quickly. 1t is well to have special
place where cleaning utensils may be
! kept in the best condition and ready
for instant use, suggests the depart
ment of agriculture. Much time and
energy is spent in collecting the uten-
sis needed for cleaning.
| A closet, cupboard, or wardrobe in
the kitchen is the best place for keep
ing the cleaning utensils. A back
stairs closet is also a good place.
One end of back porch may be in
closed and used for such purpose.
The closet should have plenty of
hooks and racks for utensils and a
shelf for cleaning materials.
The housekeeper should choose
utensils according to her own needs
and according to the requirements Of
her house. Those suggested below
are inexpensive and will help to light
en- the work of cleaning:
! Bucket with wringer for hopping.
A piece of inch board Is inches
lent platform on which to set the
mop bucket, and permits it to be
moved easily without lifting.
Wall mop made by tying bag
made of wool or cotton cloth over an
ordinary broom.
A broom, with a hook screwed in
the end of the handle, by which it can
be hung up.
A long-handled dustpan.
Several brushes for cleaning pur-
poses.
Cheesecloth, worn silk, and fan
nelet.e for busters.
Buster may be made by dipping
pieces of cheesecloth in two quarts
of warm water to which one-half cup
