CHRISTIANITY'S d.
LEMMA IN KOREA

Christianity is battling for its life
in Korea. Missions are discouraged
and religious instructors from the
West are being silenced by the Japan
csc military bureaucracy. Hospitals
are filled with the tortured and MAIN
ed and conditions in the Land of the
Morning Calm are only slightly better
than they were year ago when world
opinion forced Japan to Danish the
iron-heeled Governor General Terau-
chi.
Japan has made promises of re-
forms, but reforms in the Far East
are usually perfunctory. 1t has abol-
ished military uniforms on it's Korean
gendarmes. 1t has done away with
brass buttons and swords. Flogging
with the split bamboo is to be given
up as soon as government appropria-
tions warrant.

Japanese atrocities which, if made
known to the world, would inspire an
anti-Japanese feeling among all civil

The fact that, in the case of fam

cast the votes for all of them disre

vote, the married woman will have
the right only, if the husband is dead.

HOG CHOLERA LOSS
LIGHTER TO DATE

According to H. c.. FL. Kernkamp,
assistant veterinarian in the division
of veterinary medicine at University
Farm, hog cholera does not seem to
be as prevalent in this state as it was
at the corresponding date last year.
With conditions SO favorable appar-
emily, every effort should be made to
maintain them and keep loss at low
point. To do this requires especially
good care, sanitation and close obser-
walton.
"Pigs that are thrifty, vigorous and
rugged says DIR. Kernkamp, 'sare not
as susceptible to cholera and other dis
eases as are the unthrifty and stunted
ones. Worms and lice are partly re-
sponsible for keeping pigs in an I'M
healthy state. Clean houses, clean
pens, feeding troughs and pastures are
conducive to good health However,
these alone will not always prevent
cholera, but they will go a long way
toward control.
I'm case any pigs appear sick, their
prompt removal and isolation from the
rest of the herd is imperative. If ami
mails die suddenly their bodies should
be removed from the herd. Burn or
bury all carcasses. A veterinarian
should be called in to make a proper
diagnosis and post mortems if neces-
sary.
Hog cholera can be checked and
controlled by the proper use of anti
i hog cholera serum and strict quaran-
tine. Pigs that have not been vacci-
mated should not be placed on in
| fected premises"

THE MEANING
IN YOUR SMILE

It isn't just the smiling that you smile
along your way;
There isn't much in smiling when
you're smiling all the while.
The thing that's most important is the
thing your smile may say,
And you've got to put some meaning
in your smile.
just smiling, smiling, smiling Its a
silly sort of thing,
And it hasn't any merit, isn't worth a
picayune,
Lest you're helping by your smiling,
lest you're helping some one sing,
And there's something worth while
having in the tune.
So, put lot of meaning in the thing
you try to do,
In the song and in the service, in the
smile you try to wear;
Then the beauty and the glory of life's
love will seem more true,
And you've made some burden lighter
that was very hard to bear.

MAKING STRAWBERRIES SURE
Ample Supply of Moisture Is Essential
During Both Growing and Fruit
ing Seasons.

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
Strawberries must have an ample
supply of moisture not only during the
season of bearing fruit but also
throughout the growing season. For
this reason irrigation is necessary to
make the crop reasonably sure in most
sections of the western United States.
AS strawberries have a shallow root
system the surface soil must be Kept
moist and irrigation must be more fire.
quent than for many plants whose
roots penetrate the soil deeply. The
number of irrigations, however, will
depend largely on the character and
frequency of the tillage used in con-
serving moisture and on the type ana
condition of the soil. If the burrows
are thoroughly cultivated as soon as
the moisture conditions permit after
each irrigation the number of applica-
lions of water can be materially re-
duced, as compared with the number
required when cultivation is neglected.
In the lighter soils, during the bearing
season, the fields may be irrigated as
often as every four to six days, and
I'm heavy soils every week or two. Dur
ing the months when the plants are not
fruiting only enough water to keep
them in a thrifty, growing condition Is
necessary.
During the picking period the usual
practice is to irrigate Immediately
after each picking. When there is dan
ger that the water in the burrows may
not be absorbed before the following
picking the field may be covered by
two applications, alternate burrows
being irrigated in turn.
In many parts of the western states
the soils contain alkali, and alkaline
salts are brought to the surface In
such quantities as result of irriga
ton that the strawberry plants are In

GRAPE CUTTINGS FOR FUTURE
Profitable Practice to Get Them Ready
for Spring PIanting-Prevent
Freezing.

Farmers wishing to set out vine
Yards will profit by making grape cut
tings and getting them ready for
spring planting, according to hOrticul-
turists at the Ohio experiment station.
A number Of cuttings may be made
from one vine, and after one year Of
cultivation in a small nursery lot the
young vines are ready for planting.
Cuttings should be taken from new
wood, each cutting having two to three
buds upon 1t. The cuttings are from
8 to II inches long, the bottom being
trimmed close to the first bud, while
the top of the cutting has 2 or 8 inches
of wood above the top bud.
These are tied In bundles and placed
In damp sand in the cellar or buried
out of doors and covered to prevent
injury from severe freezing.
In the spring the cuttings are set
in rows 8 feet apart and 4 inches in
the row. Only the upper bud is al
lowed to extend above the ground. so
that the other buds will develop roots,

Judging from reports from druggists

An examining physician for one Of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as.
totishing statement that one reason why
SO many applicants for insurance are re-

common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-

that they have the disease. II is on sale

fact that the heaviest meal of the day
occurs at night, 1t is also fact that
in the smaller cities, Of 100000 popu-

in the smaller cities people are able

lowing Of the leaves in the lower spots
In the field. In selecting a site for
strawberry field places where the soils
are known to contain alkali should be
avoided.
Another limiting factor In growing
strawberries in some localities in the
West are nematodes, parasite also
known as eelworms and gallworms.
Their effect, which is usually manifest
first on The roots, is commonly called
root knot, because of the knOtlike en-
largements they produce. Nematodes
occur widely in soils where the win
ter climate is so mild that the ground
rarely freezes more than few inches
deep, or does not freeze at all. Straw
berries should not be planted In soil
known to be infested with nematOdes,
and plants should not be used which
have been grown In infested areas.
