His Best Year

Kirkby has looked better this sea-

his first tournament in Virginia and
then bagged the Metropolitan Cham
pionship at Brooklawn for the third
final round through brilliant golf.
On the Canadian Red Cross tour
where he was pitted against Chick

was only a stroke or two back of the
Chicago star for the full route. He
played eight rounds with an average

more than few rough gaps. He
should make the best showing at Pitts

IF SHANTUNG OR WAR
THEN WAR, SAYS BORAH
Might as Well Come Now as Later
Is Opinion of Senator Who OPP
poses the Land Steal

Washington, July 24-Following
upon the revelation of barbaric atroc-
tiles of the Japanese autocracy in
Korea by the Presbyterian church, and
an assault upon American troops
there for which reparation has not
yet been made, Senator Borah of Ida
no has thrown down the guantlet TO
those who advocate the ratification Of
the treaty and league covenant as it
stands by declaring that if the rejec-
ton of the provision which permits
the enslaving of forty millions of
Chinese on the Shantung peninsula by
Japan means war with that power,
1--WE might as well have it now as
later"
"No nation" he said, has ever
played its diplomatic game with
greater ingenuity and greater ability
and foresight than did Japan at Yer
sailles. The treaty means that she is
not only in possession of Shantung,
but that she now controls the three
great gateways to China. This means
as every student of eastern affairs
frankly says it means, the dismember-
ship of China. 1t means the rupture
and breaking up of the Chinese re-
public and the Chinese nation. When
China undertakes to get back her
stolen territory and her bartered peo-
pies it will be necessary for us to go
to war under Article X in order to
prevent it.
"What will we do about it? Shall
we refuse to recognize the demand Of
Japan? If so, as those who are for
the treaty as it is contend, shall we
transfer our fleet to the Pacific and
stand ready for war? | do not anti
cipate that because we refuse to I'M
derwrite the rape of Shantung we
shall be challenged to war. But, as
Stunning for the sake of argument that
something of the kind stares us in the
face, then | beg you to contemplate
the position we are in in this en-
tangling alliance affair. The United
States for the first time in its history
must underwrite the slavery and OPP
preston of forty millions of people
under threat. We have stood for a
hundred and fifty years with a
clean record, but now we are told
that we must have war if we do
not perpetuate the transfer of forty
millions of souls to an alien power.
If the time has come when we must
violate our solemn treaties which we
have with China to respect her terri
torial integrity, or face the challenge
of another power, we will face the
challenge of another power. What
ever else happens we will not sacri-
flee our honor. One thing the Amer
lean people will never submit to when
the facts are known-they will never
remain a party to a treaty which has
the effect of expressing millions of
people. When the true facts are
known the American people will re-
fuse to sanction the Remembering of
the territory and people of the Chinese
republic"

Is necessary. therefore, to know what
proportion Of farmers who advance
from tenants to owners have to Dor
row money to make the change, and
how much, In proportion to total
value OF the farms bought, they have
TO borrow.
The road toward ownership does
not necessarily start with tenancy. A
great many farm owners were first
farm hands, then tenants, then owners
with a mortgage, then owners debt
free. The census Will show. If the
questions are answered fairly, how
many years, II any. every farmer

which the department of agriculture
has been giving deepest thought dur
Ing the past several years are farm
tenancy and rural credits. The past
three censuses have shown an In
crease In the number Of tenants.
Alarmists have felt--and said-that
the country Is going to the bow.wows
by the landlord route. The department
OF agriculture. however. looked into
the matter rs well as 1t was able, and
refused to be alarmed. Where II was
able to make surveys II discovered
that while the number OF tenants 70
years old was greater In 1910 or 1890,
the number Of tenants IS years old
Was considerably smaller In 1910 than
In 1900 or 1890.
The inference Is that tenancy In .
step toward ownership. that the
young fellow who becomes = tenant
farmer when he marries. say, Is likely
10 be 4 farm owner before his nrst
child Is grown-the farm paid for and
the money that used to go to pay on
the mortgage available for sending
the children to college.
Now to the department OF agricul-
ture that looks like a thoroughly nor
NAL, healthy and beneficial process. To
just the extent that tenancy leads to
farm ownership. It Is a good thing for
the country and for the Individual.
Full Answers Essential.

OF promoting the comfort and con

an overwhelming majority Of the
votes.
That. then, Is one Of the things that
the department Of agriculture 10 try
ing to do in aid of the farm popula-
ton OF this country. In order to do
the work intelligently, the depart
ment needs as full information as
possible as to how the farm homes
OF the country are equipped for COM
fort and convenience.
Another Way to Help.
Every farmer will be asked how
many acres Of drained land he has
and how many other acres OF land
there are on his farm that could be
made suitable for cultivation II they
were tile-drained or ditch-drained.
When these questions are asked you,
remember that they are asked every
one Of your nelghbors- Possibly you

farm If you could get the surplus wa

thing about 1t. II that be true. several
Of your nelghbors have land that
should be drained. II all Of you tell
the census enumerator how many
acres you have that need drainage,
the department of agriculture will
have the facts to show what Is needed
In your community. When the oppor
tunity offers, IL will be In position
to do what 1t may to secure for you
what you need.
Those things are fairly typical OF
the questions that will be asked In
taking the agricultural census. In
order to answer all OF the questions
intelligently, the farmer will have to
think about the matter a little before
the enumeration calls on him. He ought
to give the enumerator the most accur.
ate information he can. What the indi.
vidual farmer tells the enumerator is
likely to sAenefat any number Of other
farmers. II Is not too early now to
get the facts straight in your mind
