industrialism, there has been test
not often required of brick and
stone. Up to the last ten or twelve
years the japanese have kept what
few stone or brick buildings they
constructed within the limits of a
few stories.
The natural native construction
of course is frame, that charming
combination of wood and sliding
p&per walls made famous by Messrs
Gilbert and Sullivan, Pierre Lott
and Lafcadio Hearn. The native
frame house is admirably construct
ed to withstand the earthquake
shock. Although built with seem
ing flimsiness, the house works much
as a bow with dovetailed edges.
1t is this lack of flexibility in
the conventional architecture which
makes the foreign skyscraper office
building much more dangerous
place than the native house dxing
the earthquake.
Fire Grave Menace
In the average earthquake in
Japan the gravest danger is of
course not from the quake but from
the fire that follows. This is par
ticularly true in the winter, since
with the natives almost the only
method of heating is a small hib-
ache. or charcoal brazier. The fire
sweeps through the congested areas
of these tiny flimsy houses with
incredible rapidity, and fire or the
"vcdo flower is almost the first
fear the japanese child learns.
Americans have said to me since
reports Of the disaster began com
ing in: "but Of course the foreign
ers will be all safe, living as they
do in foreign houses.' But by no
means do all the foreigners live in
foreign houses. l suspect that a ma
jority of them live in japanese
houses. Foreign houses are expen-
Sjvc and scarce and to the person
seeN4Ag atmosphere, far les attract
i've and interesting. The living con-
ditions of foreigners are different
in Yokohama, which was originally
& treaty port whore concessions
were granted for the homes of for
eigners.
The concession idea has held to a
certain extent and today most of
the foreigners live up on "the
Bluff largely isolated from the
native city. Possibly because of
this partial isolation they were
spared some of the horrors of the
past quake fire.

DELAWARE ACQUIRES

PRODUCTION OF EGGS
Sussex County Now Stands
Twentieth in United
States
OvRRToPs CROPS

When a whole county, containing STA
farms. is raised in poultry production
from an obscure place ten years back
to twentieth place Of all counties in
tho United States 1t means that some
potent factors entered into is upbuild-
ing.
Sussex county, Del, was this obscure
county so far as egg production is con-
cerned; it is one Of the few counties in
this country that has shown Increases
in egg yields hundreds per cent above
its former production in such a short
period Of years.
Again, Sussex county is the more re-
markable in that each of it's STA farms
averaged for 1922 in income return from
eggs Of 1925. This sum represents an
average farm income -incomparably
above farm income from such sources
as cereals and vegetables. Grains and
tomatoes have notably failed as money
producers in Delaware in the last two
years. With crop failures and low
prices for grains, the slump in horses
and cattle, Kent and Sussex farmers Of
Delaware have been hard hit and the
hen and her eggs have been the savior
farmers who heretofore have known
real comfort from farm products in-
cations and without the hen and her
recent years performance much finan-
cial distress would have followed crop
failures in a great portion of Delaware.
The stabilizing Of farm finance in
Delaware thru the hens perfected ef-
forts has been a wonderful achieve
ment in agricultural pursuit; It is en-
phasizing the fact that the farmer
needs auxiliary lines of endeavor to
keep going while trying to produce
crops for profit that are subject to sue
cess or failure thru the elements of
nature. Poultry, the least Of all farm
producing means available, outside of
dairying, that is affected by the ele-
ments, needs all the encouragement the
states executive and administrative
forces can render.
So far the egg-laying competitions
conducted at Newark, Georgetown and
Milford have been the most potent
means concerned in bringing egg pro-
duction in Delaware to its present
highly profitable standard. In a Great
measure egg-laying competitions are of
such a nature that their mere existence
and operation in a community are
bound to pull up the farmer to a full
of the importance Of placing
lis land investment, thru crops raised,
IN a plane that insures at least a re-
urn adequate to overhead, and this
poultry in Delaware has done. To de-
,troy such an enterprise as an egg
aging competition would permit a
lump in the very pursuit that has
placed the farmer in position to main
ain himself against ordinary farm ad-
versity.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, June 8.-Uni-
versities of the West are still in

lected as the builders of the schools
concentrated upon the. establish
ment of technical and professional
schools. which are the equal of the
finest in the world. according TO
President Donald j. Cowling, of
Carleton College. located at North

President Cowling declared that
the University of Minnesota was
not provided with sufficient funds
by the State legislature to prop
erly carry on it's work in liberal
srts instruction. THE University
of Minnesota is nothing more than
a great big, overgrown junior col
lege," he said. THE West has
built up q lot of fine technical and
professional schools equal to any
in the world; but in the matter of
liberal arts the institutions are still
in tn making. Culture is not our
long suit"
The University of Minnesota has
not succeeded in "a startling way"
President Cowlng asserted when
he pointed out that during the past
year the institution graduated 1ust
10 per cent of those who had en-
tered as students.
President Cowling urged Mime.

port of democratic preparatory col

forthcoming, he declared. schools
Of that character will be compelled
to increase tuition fees to an ex-
tent that will bar the ordinary
student.
If this be found necessary, he
asserted, such schools will no longer
remain the democratic institutions
they now are. In twenty-five years,
he said. they will have. become
"class schools" and all colleges of
liberal arts will meet the Same
fate unless the people rally to their
support"
