NEW YORK. Aug. 27.-"Japan is
looking toward the United States to-
day for helpful guidance and sympa-
thetic cooperation in the Far East"
Frank A, Vanderlip. eminent world
financier and economist. declared to-
day to the international News Service
in an exclusive interview.
Y Japan actually wants guidance and
cooperation from this country in her
, policy toward Siberia. Manchuria and
China" he said. Japan would be
most happy to receive sympathetic
overtures from the United States for
developing that part OF the world ana
ending the chaotic state OF AFFAIRS
which exists there"
MIR. Vanderlip had an excellent op-
portunity to get Japan's viewpoint
first hand recently during three
week sotourn in the land OF the NIP
ponese.
COULD FORM PARTNERSHIP.
Tie American fnancier indicated
that a partnership of American and
q Japanese interests easily could be de-
veloped, provided the plan were
looked upon with favor by the Ameri-
can Government, for bringing
greater degree of ordered government
TO Siberia, Manchuria, and sections OF
China. Mr.. Vanderlip said the situa-
tion in some sections of Eastern 81
IBERIA and Manchuria were slipping
back to primitive conditions, while
China was continuing undeveloped.
II heard very little of any possible
cooperation in a commercial sense
with England by the Japanese" said
Mr.. Vanderlip. THE Japanese were
strangely silent.

are 57,0O0.000 Japanese living in

fore her. First, she can become an In
dustrial nation, like England. But
that will be difficult. England had
coal, and iron and was the originator
of the modern industrial state. Japan
has no great amount Of iron, only
little coal and some copper. Her
people have little aptitude for repeti-
tive work-they make no Two thlnSs
exactly alike. 1t would take consider
able time to train efficient workmen
and develop industries. And even then
they probably could not compete with
England in similar lines.
Second. Japan could export her
surplus population, although this
would hardly relieve the present
home situation. But where would the
japanese go? Not to Canada or the
United States or Australia, where
they are barred, nor to India or
China, which already are over
populated. Possibly to South Ameri-
ca. But the Japanese are not hardy
as a race in graphing with an un-
favorable climate or primitive con-
ditions.
"Third-Japan can expand CONNER

China, where there is coal and iron to
be had, and where social conditions
should be stabilized.

where the acreage is large. In pre-
pairing the land for cultivating crops
the southeastern farmer with his one
mule makes five trips across the field
to the Texas farmers one. The Texas
man cultivates both sides of the row
and the middle at single trip. but a
one-mule hitch must make two or three
trips to accomplish as much. More
over. the single-mule farmer uses twice
as much man labor as does the chap

Of cultivation was $1.3S per acre and

the corn was check-rowed and .culti-

the hoeing cost was only q cents an

The causes Of inferiority among live
stock, cattle. sheep, horses and
even chickens may be summed up
briefly. They are:

2. Failure to use good blood.
3. IndIscriminate mixing Of different
types and breeds.
4. Lack of good care and manage.
ment.
In inaugurating the "better sires-
better stock" crusade, the United
States department of agriculture fully
recognizes the obstacles to be met ana
overcome. There are few today who
believe that a scrub Is in any way
equal to the purebred or better-bred
animal. The purebred, particularly
the better-bred, animal Is rapidly find-
ing a place on farms where heretofore
the less desirable kind were growing.
Those who previously were growing
scrubs are growing good stock. while
those who previously kept good ones
are now growing the better kind.
Good sires may be introduced in
many ways. but among the more prac-
teal are:
1. Individual ownership.
2. Copartnership ownership, where
two or more farmers purchase sire
Jointly, or
3. The agricultural organization,
club. farm bureau. or community own
ership plan.
Good results are seen everywhere
from cooperative efforts along this
line.
The communities as well as individ-
uals that have become most noted
for the animals they have produced
are those that have selected just one
breed. and only one. While no one
would attempt to tell you the breed
you should keep, yet success comes
only In large way to the individuals
and communities who have adopted
one breed, rather than two or many.
To work out this plan successfully,
the Individual likes and dislikes Will
have to be overcome or minimized.

Matter Which Fills Intestines Of

The presence Of honey-dew honey
cnused heavy mortality among bees
last winter. Francis lager, head Of
the division of bee culture at Univer-

"Honey-siew honey" adds the bee

necessary, that the bcekeeper feed his
bees for winter stores at least ten
pounds OF sugar strip or white honey

thinning, but leave the snail trees that

The epigram. "He CAPT see the

well be applied to the marketing of
farm products, say specialists of the
bureau of markets, United States de-
partment of agriculture. Often mar
keting opportunities at the very doors
Of growers are overlooked. A produc-
er will ship his products to distant
market at considerable expense and
In competition with other growers
when he might have sold them nearer
home Mt larger profit to himself and
at lower cost to the consumer. The
reason he does not do so generally is
that he. is not sufficiently informed Of
the requirements In his more immedi-
ate territory.
Precisely this condition has exist
ed in the state of New Hampshire for
good many years. Dealers were
equally at fault. for in many leading
cities orders were sent to Boston for
large quantities Of seasonable New
Hampshire products, which, when
traced. were found In some instances
to have been produced and shipped
from stations within a few miles of the
very cities or towns where the dealers
were located.

aim was to ascertain the volume and
