u. S. TRADE HELPED
BY CHINA'S BOYCOTT
AGAINST JAPANESE
Continued From First Page

tCOnLlnueO from F1rSt Page.)
January and February of this year, has
materially assisted this country's ex-
ports to China, proper. However, this
gain, it Is being pointed out, has been
less than it aided China's imports from
Great Britain because of the advan-
tage which British exporters enjoyed in
the deprecated pound sterling.
Noticeable in Philippines.
Outside of China the trend has been
particularly noticeable in the Philip-
pines, where the import market is DOM
mated by the United States and ,Japan
Whether the boycott movement among
the Chinese in Manila and elsewhere on
the islands Is likely to have a degree
OF permanency could not be confined
here. Ofhcials absolutely refused to
discuss the matter for publication.
Recently there. has been a decided
clamping down on trade reports cabIed
to the Commerce Department from tha
Far East especially those dealing with
the boycott movement. The DEPART
ment is now giving out only non-essen-
tial reports pertaining to the Situation
at Shanghai
However, the latest report given o,,t
by the department for publication from
Manila states: The January tevt;Ia
market continued to show a general
improvement for American goods A
number of orders have been diverted
from japan on account of the Chinese
boycott Of japanese goods"
The total exports to the Philipnines
in 1881 were valued at S48 8s3, 900, with
the United States originating about rs
per cent OF the total foreign purchases.
japanese investments on the island
however, have been reflected in q grow
ing share for her exports.
Selling to Europeans.
Creeping into a cabled report from
Richard P. Hendren. American trade
commissioner at Batavia, Java, as made
public by the department yesterday was
the following:
japanese exporters are now selling
to European import houses, owing To
the boycott OF japanese goods by Chi
nese Arms. Slightly increased demand
for American voiles continues"
A report from Singapore said that
'the boycott is still being strictly en-
forced" but a report from BANGKOK
said that only the larger Chinese firms
are enforcing the boycott"
In a recent report of the Depart
ment OF Agriculture it was said that
by going off the gold standard japan
is placed in much the same Competitive
position respecting the export trade
with China in cotton goods that she
held before the British currency was
deprecated"
The survey added that although
Chinese boycotts in the past had not
seriously reduced JapanS trade, the
current boycott may materially restrict
its exports Of textiles to China"

Sleep, as we know it, is a fitting
and proper symbol of death. 1t marks
cessation of all activity. accom-
panied by Inconsistencies and a.
tendant helplessness. The sleeper is
virtually dead to all his surround
ings, unconscious of all that takes
place about him, unable to protecs
or defend himself in anyway what
soever.
Paul declares that the Church
should never sleep. Those who know
their Lord by regeneration must
ever be on the watch against sin and
negligence. Christ enjoined upon his
believers the task of watching and
praying in order that they might
not be caught in the coils of tempta-
ton. Again He declared Be We also
ready for We know not the day nor
the hour when the Son of Man
cometh. Blessed is that servant whom
the Lord when He cometh shall find
watching.
There are many things which are
conducive to spiritual sleep and
against which every believer must
fight if he would win in this great
contest. There is the inclination to
yield to and follow the line of least
resistance, to just drift, feeling that
all things will come out right in the
end. and that the Lord delays His
coming. This is one of the most So.
ductive and artful devices employed
by the evil one to overthrow the
believer and throw him off his
guard. Then, too, the false prophets
are ever with us, crying Peace and
safety, and thus strengthening our
inclination to inactivity and ease.
Sad indeed is the condition of those
who dare sleep while the enemy is
awake.
Those of us who know the Lord
should guard against moral sleeu.
against soul-lethargy, conscience
slumbering and spiritual paralysis in
general. We must be careful to avoid
too close affiliation with worldly
things, for Christ has declared: Ye
are not of the world even as | am
not of the world, and because we
are not we must guard against the
evils of the world, the snares of
Satan and the deceitfulness of our
own hearts. The church must watch.
The moral sobriety of the believer
should likewise be flawess and be-
yond question. The moral standard
should be kept inviolate. Our con
ceptions of right and wrong and
our prosecution of these conceptions
regulate and determine our charac-
ter. There should be no excesses in
the life of the Christian for all vices
are virtues carried to excess. We
should seek even lawful things with
modesty and moderation, not drunk
with the love of office nor of This
world, for we are not to follow the
leadings of this unregenerated world
but our Christ, in precept and exam.
pie. We must not sleep like the rest
of men, but be wakeful and sober.

| SEED
WILL PRODUCE
BETTER CROPS

The California approved seed
project has as its aim the produc-
ton and distribution of pure seed
of those varieties OF grains which
the extension service test plots
show to yield the heaviest in the
various grain sections of the state
Earl Coke, extension specialist in
agronomy of the University of
California, has laid down require
mentS which growers must meet
to maintain the high standards of
approved seed.
The farm advisors office can
supply interested parties with a
list of requirements for approved
Double Dwarf milo seed production.
Some of the requirements are that
approved fields must be at least
1000 feet away from the nearest
fields of any other varieties of
sorghum and that no sorghum or
Sudan grass was grown on the
fields themselves last year. The
purpose of these requirements is
to prevent the production of i'm
pure seed through croSs-pollination
with other varieties. 1t is also re-
quired that all seed used for the
production of approved seed be
busted with copper carbonate to
prevent the occurrence of smut
in the field
The agricultural extension serv-
ice started this approved seed prof.
ect in Imperial county last year,
according to Frank Beyschlag, farm
advisor. That year Double Dwarf
milo seed produced at the univer-
Sity farm at Davis was brought to
Imperial Valley as foundation
stock. A field of Double Dwarf
milo grown from this seed by j. l..
Taecker of Brawley met all the re-
quirements for approval by the ex-
tension specialist in agronomy.
This locally grown approved Double
Dwarf milo seed is now available
to ranchers from both the grower
Taecker, and the Imperial Valley
Grain Growers, Inc, the grain CO.
operative at Brawley.
This seed, of course, must be
used in those fields which are to

Miss Tanguay a week ago was

ago, it was necessary to lead her

be approved this year, although it
is equally valuable in fields grown
just for grain because of its high
production.
Some of the ranchers here plant
ing this Double Dwarf milo seed
may be interested in growing fields
that may be approved for seed this
year. 1t was stated by Beyschlag
that there are no charges for this
approval service other than the
cost of an official stencil, which is
required for the marking of bags
of seed, and a charge of one cent
a bag for an official seal, for each
bag of approved seed.
