CHINESE LOOK
TOU.S. FOR AID
DR.. c. 7. Wang Warns
Against Growing Menace
Of Jap Autocracy.
CHINA STANDS ALONE
America Alone Opposes
Shantung Issue Against
World, He States.

IF America does not uphold de-
mocracy abroad the day will come
when she will have to fight autoc-
racy on her own shores If a strong
military bureauracy gets control of
China, eventually America will have
to defend herself against attack by
that power"
This is the prediction made by DR..
C. T. Wang. one of the Chinese rep
resentativss at the Peace Confer
ence.
This clean-cut, eloquent young
Yale graduate has become one of
the new factors in Chinese Affairs.
He is keen. masterful and his in
tegrity and patriotism are unques-
toned He is a thorn in the side
OF Japan, and yet he is moderate
and diplomatic. not by any estimate
a fire-brand-
Japan an Autocracy.
DR.. Wang reasons in this manner:
Japan is a military autocracy,
absolutely governed by a small
clique of militarists. There can be
no successful denial of that. Her
ambitions are imperialistic and those
ambitions control her international
policy.
China is definitely committed to
, democratic government The spirit
of her people is pacificist, non-milI-
tarist. We want to maintain a
united China and develop efficient
self-government. We menace no
people anywhere.
Surely there can be no question
as to which nation should have the
sympathy and support of the United
States in diplomacy.
America was the first nation 70
recognize the Republic of China, in
1913. Before that, since 1900, she
had been upholding the doctrine for
mulated by John Hay, the open door
policy to which all the Western
powers assented- During the world
war chain of circumstances has
The action of the American Sen
ate lin taking exception to the de-
ciston of the Versailles conference
as to the disposition of the German
rights in Shantung may be COM
pared to a foot thrust between a
closing door and the door-frame.
My hope is that America will neither
withdraw that foot nor permit 1t to
be crushed.
China Asks Free Trade.
China wants free intercourse with
an nations, and the temper of her
people is now thoroughly aroused
against being bottled in by some
one power"
asked DR.. Wang what he
thought should be China's reply to
Japan's proposal for direct negotia-
uons over NShantung. He replied:
7 do not think 1t wise for litigants
TO withdraw q case without the con-
sent and knowledge of the court
China has not agreed to the
Shantung decision Of the peace con-
ference Therefore, we contend, our
case goes automatically to the
League Of Nations A Judgment has
been handed down against US and
our case Is on appeal to the higher
court
Tt may be wise for China to ap-
point a commission to hear what
Japan demands as to Shantung, but
every step Of the proceedings must
be known to the western powers
There must be no secret negotia-
tions between japan and the militia
rists of the Peking clique. If ia
pan has fair and just proposals to
make they can stand the light of
day"

their resistance to early spring
weather. The chief cold temperature
vegetables are round-seeded peas,
caulifiower cabbage, lettuce, spinach,
kale, endevie, parsley, Deets, radish,
turnips, carrots and onions. These
may be planted in the open ground
about the time of the last killing frost,
or when peach and plum trees are in
blossom and when silver naples put
forth leaves.
Heat-loving plants which cannot be
safely planted until the ground is
warm are beans, peppers, eggplant,
cucumbers, melons, squash, tomato.
pumpkin and okra. These should be
planted about the time the apple trees
bloom, or when the dog wood and
white oak buds unfold. Between
these two extremes there is a middle

Protects Plants Against Frost
A week or two may be gained by
setting out tender plants before dan,
ger of frost is over and then protect
ing them by covering with paper, tin
cans, berry boxes or plant covers
Such covers should be but over the
plants at night.
Some idea of the seed and plants
required for medium size home gar
den may be gathered from the follow
ing list:
Asparagus, roots; beets, 1 ounce;
celery, SO plants; eggplant, 6 plants;
tomatoes, II plants; onion sets, 2
quarts; string beans, l pint; carrot,
l packet, rhubarb, s roots; cabbage,
20 plants; cauliflower, Is plants; pep

beans, IL pint; sweet corn, IL pint;
radish, I ounce.
Relatively small quantities of par
ships, cucumbers, cantaioupe, water
melon, spinach, pumpkin, parsley,
turnip, kale, will be sufficient for
most families, therefore a packet of
each probably will be ample. Need
less to say, it pays to buy reliable
seeds, not alone for the assurance

earthenware cracks which have

crooks, are preferable. Crockery,

than metal receptacles.
How the Eggs are Packed
If the eggs are carefully placed in
the vessel on end and stood close to-
gether more eggs can be stored in
given container and less solution
is required to cover them. This is
not essential, however, and sometimes.
as in the case with most backyard
and farm flocks, it will not be possible
to store the eggs in such large quaint
ties.
The eggs can be added few at Il
time, as they are gathered each day,
fresh from the nests. Simply place
the eggs in the solution and see that
they are covered by the liquid to a
depth of two inches. If the solution
evaporates, add more; the eggs must
be covered by the water glass as long
as they are in storage. A good plan
is to cover the containers with lids
to prevent evaporation and keep out
dust. If tight fitting covers are not
available, secure layer of tough
paper on top of the vessel
Store the containers in a cool, we'll
ventilated, clean cellar. Examine the
containers about once a month to see
that the eggs are submerged. Do not
attempt to keep the eggs indefinitely;
no method of preservation will do this
The eggs should be consumed within
nine months.
Remove the eggs from the solution
as they are desired. Do not keep the
eggs out of preservative for any con
siderable time before they are to be
used-a week is all right.
When preserved eggs are to be
boiled, stick needle through the shell
at the large end to prevent the shell
from breaking.
Do not replace the eggs in the so

To do so may influence the other eggs.
Be Sure of Fresh Eggs
Strictly fresh eggs are necessary to
assure success. Use infertile eggs
whenever possible. Test the eggs

question as to their quality.
Scrub and scald the containers to
insure cleanliness. Dirty eggs or eggs
which have been washed should not be
preserved Remember, one defective
egg may render the entire lot unfit for
food.
Do not use any preserving solution
more than once. Make fresh lot
each year.

The FurrOW
Ne7vs and Vle7vS About The Farm

A half-acre garden, which is plot
about 200 feet long by 100 feet, will
yield more vegetables than the aver
age family can consume during the
growing period of the crops, and pro-
vide enough of surplus for winter
storage and preserving. The same
plot is large enough to graw quite a
variety of small fruits, such as berries
and few trees. Planning is needed
of course. There must be rotations
and the cultivation needs to be Of the
intensive sort.
The suburbanite with a smaller
space will do well to confne his eff
forts to those vegetables in which
freshness is an important table quail
ity, leaving such crops as potatoes,
squashes and melons which require 4
large area in proportion to their yield,
to be purchased from the store. In
other words, as good potatoes can be
bought as can be grown; but the same
cannot be said of peas, string beans
and such like, which lose much in
flavor if they are not cooked almost
Immediately after they are picked.
The home gardener should devote
a portion of his space to little beds of
parsley, chives and other herbs, rhu-
barb, horseradish and artichokes,
those specialties which require little
room and no particular trouble to raise
and which provide the housewife with
most welcome additions to the table,
especially if they can be gathered at
moments notice.
How to Lay Out Garden
In laying out garden, bear in mind
the need of sunlight Trees and
bushes, also plants which make a
high growth causing heavy shade,
should not be located where they will
interfere with sun-loving plants. On
this account it is well to plant the
tallest things at the north side of the
garden.
Corners or boundaries make the
| best places for perennials, because
| they require very little cultivation.
Fences make excellent trellises for
grapevines and dwarfed fruit trees.
| A hedge can be made of currant
fha Give tho frn w
berry patch enough room to take care
of runners for transplanting. Leave
ample space between rows of black
berries for harvesting the fruit. These
paintings have a way of becoming
tangle unless kept under control of the
pruning knife.
A spade or spading fork, hoe, rake,
dibble or trowel and hand-wheel cul-
tivator are the essential tools for a
small garden Unless the plot is very
small, it will pay to have the plough
ing done by a horse, also the harrow
ing. Spading the garden is very ardu-
Gus and not as likely to result in as
good work as ploughing.
Plant for Continuous Supply
The entire supply of seeds of such
vegetables as corn, peas, string beans,
lima beans, lettuce and radish should
be planted at one time. Make sue,
cessive planting two or three weeks
apart, so that fresh supply of the
vegetables may be had throughout the
season. Unless the home gardener
plans to have hotbed or coldframe, it
will pay him to buy plants for the
tomatoes, peppers, elephants and cab
bage. To start the crops with seed in
the open ground takes them too long
in maturing.
Garden errors may be divided into
two classes-"cold temperature" and
