Jap Beetle Traps Are
Improved This Summer

The traps used this year for catch
ing Japanese beetles in the area un-
der quarantine will not have to be
emptied by hand every time it rains,
as they have in past seasons. Slots
cut in the bottom of the containers
will permit the rain water to run
out. thus reducing the labor of op-
GRAFTON. These slots are cut, at small
cost, with a special device develop
ed by the Plant Quarantine and
Control Administration of the Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture.
Japanese beetle traps are placed
at strategic points surrounding most
of the quarantined area during the
time the adult insects are in flight,
not primarily to destroy as many
beetles as possible, but rather to
provide information on the spread Of
the infestation. Accurate informa-
tion on the spread of the beetles
throughout the season is essential
as a basis for quarantine and con-
troll measures AGAINST this feh and
orchard pest.

Average Chinese Farm
Yields Dollar A Day

The average Chinese farm is five
acres in size and supports family
of five to ten persons on crops worth
about a dollar a day or $365 year.
Yet the Chinese farmer is, on the
whole, cheerful and happy man. A
picture of his life and a summary of
his philosophy has just been pub
lished in The Country Home, from
the pen of Pearl S. Buck. author of
several notable books on China.
This average Chinese farmer"
says Mrs. Buck, "is lean brown
man, habitually clothed in blue cot
ton. He has blue cotton trousers
loosely girded about his middle with
a strip of cloth the same color, and
he wears on his upper body blue
cotton coat. Both are patched, but
they are quite clean. He wears no
socks. but only pair of very bag
gy cloth shoes or straw sandals.
''He has a wrinkled kindly face
and looks somewhat older than he
is. Perhaps that is because several
of his teeth are gone. He says worms
ate thcm away. But it is a good face,
full of humOr and interest in life,
with perhaps hint of laziness in its
good will.
"rhe average investment of Chi
nese farmer in his land, tools and
house, is only about $1,000 in Amer
lean currency. His farming is done
with very primitive tools. He would

erican farmer has, particularly the

BROADCASTINC FERTILIZER
AIDS SWEETPOTATO YIELDS

Fertilizer tests recently complet-
ed in North Carolina by State and
Federal soils specialists may bring
about a decided change in the COM
mon method of applying fertilizers
to sweet potatoes. reports the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Plots where fertilizer was broad
cast over the rows after the plants
were set and well rooted gave a bet
ter stand and larger yields than
plots where the fertilizer was ap-
piled in the row before the plants
were set, the method commonly us
ed. Broadcasting the fertilizer also
permits use of the less expensive
fertilizers-those with nitrogen
from inorganic and synthetic sour
ces-without harm to the plants.
The tests also revealed that pot
ash from high-grade salts is better
than that from lowgrade salts for
sweet potatoes. Growers who tried
broadcasting fertilizer for sweet po-
tatoes have increased their Yields by
an average Of 25 bushels an acre.

NHAT'LL WE DO WITH The
WORLD! .

The World looks to the United
States for leadership. for money
and for the best products that ever
came out of factories. Even Russia
with its new egOtism has turned to
the United States for brain power to
initiate mass production, scientific
agriculture, engineering plans, and
schemes to get the most out of life
with the least amount of energy.
Sometimes the United States trades
successfully with the World, but
right now our Government and our
institutions are running in red ink
because the World has gone flatter
than ever Dowie could imagine. The
question naturally suggests itself:
What'll we do with the World?
President Hoover recently said
that during the past two years, as
compared with the pre-war decade,
the proportion of our foreign trade
carried by ships under the American
flag has substantially increased.
And note this important note in
what the President added: "It has
notably grown in trades where no
American flag services previously
were provided"
Our countrymen long ago learned
that they had to have carts and wag-
ons if they expected to trade in the
markets. And then they built rail
roads that brought the different
parts of the country into closer con-
nections.
The old clipper ships did fine ser
vice on the seas, but they have pas
sed. The American merchant marine
is being expanded, and great lines
now are operated under the Ameri-
can flag between Europe. Latin AM
erica, the Orient, and in the coast
wise service.
The United States is competing
with the World for World trade
That's why the United States is
building its own great fleets to meet
the ever-increasing competition in
foreign commerce.

chine is a pump, made of wood, used
TO pump water into the rice fields

His plOw is a crude affair of
rough unpainted wood, but it has an
iron point. He bitches a water buff
falO to it and with the buffalo pull
ing and him pushing, they manage
to cover an acre in a day. The chief
trouble is that the plow does not
plOw as deeply as it should.
IF his receipts are low, so are his
expenses. Labor is his highest eX-
pense and is one-lifth of all his eX-
penses. which total $l31 a year.
Taxes are a burden to him, for they
constitute per cent of his expenses
and he gets nothing in return
from an impOtent government.
"The average farm house has two
rooms. 1t has earthen floors. walls
of brick and tile roof. Inside the
house are all his possessions. The
fowls come in at night and rOost un-

while the pig is tied to a table leg.
The water buffalo is brought into
the kitchen at night and the door
fastened. There are no windows in
the house except one about a foot

HUGGING is IN FASHION

All fashion seems to be in hug
ging frame Of mind at the moment.
Dresses and coats and suits are
clinging close to their wearer In
, other words. they are being built by
the designers to mold the figure
"amidships," as one fashion editor
has said.
Even utility and general country
wear coats do this. Two of the Lead
ing American creators. are develop
ing in a durene ribbed weave coats
that do exactly this. They are roomy
and have plenty of breadth of shoul-
der and flare below the waist line
but between waist and bust they
cling closely, and give line which
is distinctly Spring and Summer
