They're superior race. They're the
only race in the history Of the world
that has ever completely absorbed the
Jews. It's a clean record.
Some 1000 years ago there was a
great Jewish colony in China. To-
day every trace of it is gone. Great
China slowly, patiently digested it.
It is so large and SO old and its
superstitions are so ancient and its
customs SO deep-rooted that for China
to change would be almost like Nature
altering her features.
Very, very slowly some of these
customs are changing and the AM
erican missionaries have had more to
do with these changes than all the
other foreign influence, in China put
together. Civilizations that have ex-
listed for hundreds and thousands OF
years necessarily have developed
tremendous powers of resistance, and
they resist good innovations as well
as evil ones. .y1tif

The very oppression and domination

that nothing else could dot was
tending to awaken China to the neces-
sity of unity and patriotism and mod

China from her lethargy.

Murray-Redwood
Census Figures
MARKED INCREASE IN FARM
PROPERTY is SHOWN BY
TEN YEAR SURVEY.

Some interesting facts and figures
are contained in recent summaries on
the agricultural census of Murray
and Redwood counties just made pub
lie by the department of commerce,
Bureau of Census.
The reports show that on January
1, 1920, there were 1876 farms with
a total acreage of 415,872 acres in
Murray county. The same report
shows in Redwood county total OF
|2,548 farms with a total acreage OF
525, 074. The increase in the number
of farms compared with 1910, the
preceding census, shows a gain OF
236 farms in Murray and 237 farms
in Redwood; a gain for the former
of 14.4 per cent and for the latter of
1913 per cent. Only seven farms in
the two counties were operated by
colored farmers in 1920, all being in
Redwood county.
The most interesting part of the re-
ports are shown in the big increase in
value of land and buildings in the ten
year period. Murray County lands
which were valued at $20,242, 1872 in
1910, increased in value to $6,527, 129
in 1920, for lands and buildings. This
is an increase of 224.4 per cent for the
decade. Redwood county lands and
buildings, valued in 1910 at $26 ,259, :
$50, increased in valuation in 1920 to
SIS, 883,935 or an increase of $50, GA
005 for the. period, representing an
addition of 1904 per cent.
Swine head the list of domestic
animals on the farms of the two
counties, with 63,020 for Redwood
and Sc, 154 for Murray. Cattle comes
a close second with 49,703 in Red
wood and 47,078 in Murray Of hor-
SEES there are 1896 in. the former a
gain Of over 1900 in ten years for
Redwood while Murray with 1908
crease of 3,543 over 1910. These
figures would indicate that the truck,
tractor and automobile has not affect
ed much the popularity of the horse
on the farm. These figures do not
represent the entire gain of the two
dates since the 1910 census was tax
en- in April and the last in January,
before the breeding season for that
year.
Of the principal crops Redwood
county produced in 1919, the last year
for which figures are obtainable,
1,684,002 bushels of oats, 1885, 478
bushels of corn. 321 ,075 bushels of
wheat and 1896 tons of hay. The
figures for Murray county for 1919
are: oats 2,289, O79 bushels, corn, g.
463, 1876 bushels, barley 1878 bu-
shells, hay 65,74O tons. The figures
are significant in showing the pass
ing of the two counties as the wheat
producing sections. While Redwood
county in 1909 produced a total of
/ ,193, 156 bushels of wheat from H.
339 acres, the production for 1919
was but 321, OTIS bushels from 51,-I
491 acres. This last acreage is doubt
less larger than the average for this
time, due to the war stimulus of
growing wheat in 1919 and the high
price, which resulted in larger
acreage. No figures on wheat were
given for Murray county but the con-
ditions are much the same. While
there was a marked increase in the
acreage of the two counties devoted
to the principal crops, there is a big
falling off in the volume Of the crops.

De VALERA WARNS
OF BRITISH ''PEACE"
Wires Sympathizers in US. That
England Has Propagandists
Against Irish Here.

That alleged peace terms are being
disseminated with the idea of crystal
ixing public opinion in America
against the Irish republic while at
the same time. England is carrying
on her campaign of assassination,
burning. looting and reprisals behind
the smoke screens of peace created
by her news services, is the essence
OF the telegram sent out by Harry
Boland, secretary to Eamon de Valera,
10 all the councils of the American
Association for the Recognition of
the Irish Republic, and read at a
meeting OF the Padraic II. Pearse
Council held in 40 i street last night.
The telegram was based on in
formation received from Ireland since
the numerous peace proposals were
made recently. and reminded the
members of the councils that the Dali
Eireann has issued a manifesto to the
world pledging the people OF Ireland
and their representatives to be faith
full to the cause of an independent
Irish republic till death.
"The representatives of the Irish
people have time after time expressed
their desire for peace" the telegram
read: England can have peace to-
morrow by drawing her army of oc-
cupation out of Ireland. Friends of
Ireland In America can best aid in
answering this peace propaganda of
England by a determined effort to Sc
cure the recognition of the Irish Re-
public from their Government" 1t
said.
The Padraic Fl. Pearse Council will
elect its delegates to the State con-
vention of the American Association
for the Recos OF the Irish Re-
public, Friday night. The convention
will be held March 3. The council
voted to support the campaign to be
conducted by the American Commit
tee for Relief in Ireland.
