TURNED IT BACK TO BAKER
Chinese Dairy Farmer Had Good Ex-
use for Selling His Product
Without Using Scales.

A dairy farmer living in a small
town was recently summoned to al-
pear before the local magistrate on a
charge Of selling butter under weight.
The complainant was the village
baker, who felt he was being wronged
when he discovered that every pound
Of the farmers butter fell below the
weight that a pound ought to be.
"Have you a pair OF scales?" asked
the magistrate of the farmer.
Eyes, your honor"
And weights?"
mo, your honor, l have no weights"
you have no weights! How, then,
can you weigh your butter?"
'"That is very simple, Your honor.
Since the baker has bought his butter
from me, l buy my bread from him.
and his %One-pOund loaves serve me as
weights to weigh my butter. If the
butter does not weigh what 1t should,
1t is the bakers fault, and not mine,
you see."-North China Herald.

The Negro in America.

Wnen the first census of the limited
States was taken in 1890 one person in
every five was negro. or, to be ex-
act, 1873 per cent. Two years ago.
when the fourteenth census was taken.
one person in every ten was black.
Inc Facts are interesting, for they
SHOW that in spite of the weli-known
fecundity of the black race it is not
increasing so rapidly in this country
as the white race is. The white peo-
pie, Of course, have added millions to
their number by immigration and other
millions through the offspring of inn
migrants, whereas the colored race has
had almost no increase of that sort.
But the process was noticeable even
before the great tide of immigration
began in the forties. In the fifty years
between 1890 and 1910 the proportion
of whites in our population rose from
8O.7 per cent to 1872 per cent. In the
fifty years between 1910 and 1920 il
went from S6.2 to Se.7 per cent; that
is, it rose more rapidly but not more
steadily than in the earlier period.
There is some reason to think that
the negroes were undernumcrated in
the last census-Dr. Kelly Miller of
Howard University feels certain of it:
but even with the revised figures that
he suggests the proportion of whites
would be 1914 per cent, whereas in
1910 it was only $50
A still more remarkable fact brought
out by the census is the gradual shift
ing of the negro population from South
to North. The five States of South
Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, MISSISSIPPI
pi, and louisiana, where the negroes
are most numerous, actually had thirty
seven thousand fewer black persons
in 1920 than they had in 1910. The
five States of New York, Pennsylvania,
Indiana, Ohio and illinois had three
hundred and twenty thousand more.
The negro, like the white man, begins
to show tendency to leave the farm
for the city and the factory. With the
movement, perhaps largely because
of it, comes a diminishing coored
birth rate, which according to the cen
sus authorities is not yet Offset, as it
is in the case of the white race, by a
greatly diminished death rate. 1t
seems reasonable to believe that the
colored race will not thrive so well
in the colder climate of the North and
under the combining conditions of in
dustrial life as it has thrived on the
plantations of the South; but the north
ward drift is unmistakable. 1t will
take a long time to make the wider
distribution of the negro socially and
politically apparent. No doubt therl
will always be more negroes in the
South than in the North; but Judge
Tourgee's prediction of "eight black
republics" in the South is already
discredited. The negro is moving cut
of the "Black Beit' into wider
world.
