Special Summer schools are being
started in the cotton region about
Nanking, and the reconstruction of
some parts of the cotton area is plan
ned. 1t is proposed to consolidate the
small farms and make big planta-
tions. The schools are to train fore
men for these farms.
A year or so ago a cotton field in
Shantung was planted with American
cotton. The result was an increase
In yield of SO per cent, and it so ex-
cited the farmers about that they
came in at night and stole the cotton
as soon as it was ripe that they might
use the seed. In the past the Shan
tung cotton has been among the
poorest of China. 1t is now among
the best, and is bringing high prices.
The American seed Is found to out
class the native in its hardihood and
resistance to climatic conditions.
There are now II experiment farms
devoted to cotton, and the Chinese
Cotton MillerS' Association of this
city is distributing American seed.
The Chinese have been manufacture
ing cotton cloth since the days of the
Crusaders. Today they are making
the cloth in a vast number of 1ocali-
ties by almost the same methods that
were used then. Quantities of Chi
nese cotton are ginned with a bow
string and woven on hand looms. of
which there are tens of thousands
still in use. Many of the farmers
spend the Winter months, when they
cannot work in the fields, weaving
cloth for the family
Within the past decade or so many
of the old looms have been replaced
by others imported from Japan. The
Japanese looms, made of wood. sell
for about see apiece. The worker
sits before the loom and pulls the
lay back and forth with his right
hand, jerking a cord with his left
that throws the shuttle from side to
side. He uses foot pedal to raise
and lower the thread.
The cloth so made Is dyed In solid
colors ana mostly In blue. The dyes,

tone. Chevy trembled, and then with
a bound, leaped upon the doctor as he

Germany.
Such cloth is able to compete with
the cotton mills to so great an extent
that there are hand looms right here
in Shanghai, the center of the mod
ern spinning and weaving industry
In the far interior, wages are so low
that the handmade goods often cost
less than the machine product. The
weavers in the remote districts work
by the piece, getting only a dollar or
SO for 200 yards. and making perhaps
20 yards in Il day. They do well to
earn 25 cents in 12 hours.
1t is these hand looms that create
the great demand for the cotton yarn
now being spun in the big mills
throughout the country. China is,
also, the worlds greatest importer of
cotton yarns and the second greatest
importer of cotton piece goods. She
buys something like s60.000,0o0 worth
of cotton yarn and 00.000,000 worth
of cotton piece goods every year.

WHEN I first visited China, in 1889,

mill in the empire, and during my
second visit, seven years later, only
two had been established. One of
these was at Shanghai, and the other
was at Wuchang, opposite Hankow,
600 miles up the Yangtse Kiang. The
two mills together had only $4,000
