 Work For Money
 Hereafter Japanese in agricultural pursuits may work for money, but may not be paid in produce.
 Chambers of Commerce and other organizations, including Californians incorporated, body devoted to fur nishing authentic information about the states resources, are trying to solve the problems involved, chief among which is that of procuring an influx of white farmers.
 The Stockton Chamber of Com merce reported recently that unless white farmers could be obtained to till 10000 acres in the rich San Joaquin valley. until lately farmed by Japa- nese, these lands highly productive in potatoes, onions and celery must re- vert to barley cultivation.
 In the Imperial valley. at thes outh- ern end of the state, the supreme courts crop-sharing decision took Japanese from 50,ooO acres of cotton lands.
 Similar situations exist in other fruit and vegetable districts.
 Yet an Investigating committee of the Stockton Realtors association re- ported: There will be undoubtedly a curtailment of some few crops, but other crops will be planted to take their place, and so far as we can learn no part of these most produc- tive lands will lie idle. The variety of crops profitably grown on these hnds has been largely extended in fecent years, and the day has passed when they were by necessity farmed almost exclusively by Orientals."

 Holidays on Continent

London, Jan. 1S.-The number of Englishmen deserting their country for the sunshine and gaiety of the continent over the Christmas season broke all records this year. For two weeks before Christmas the trains leaving the English metropolis for the continent were filled to capacity and as Christmas drew near they were run in as many as six sections
 Foreigners were noticeably scarce in London for the Yuletide, and places where they are accustomed to frequent were almost deserted. This applied principally to Americans.
