their mothers-realized that the
play parade had become part Of a
real military system.
This attempt 70 make children

than the echo OF little boys march,

theater the other day, a kissing

A quick survey revealed that
women were kissing and men were
applauding. More than that, hostile
glances we're being exchanged. The
women's eyes challenged men to ap-
prove of such a military advance.
The mems eyes berated the women
who could see no glory in the

y HANGHAI CP).-Of all the ma

China appears to to have been the
~ least affected by the machine
In this vast primitive land of
400 900 600 people human labor is SO
cheap that the machine has been
unable successfully to compete with 1t

almost a beast of burden. No labor
is too hard for him, no hours too long,
no compensation too little.
In late years China has bought
great quantities of machinery and
mechanical equipment from the
United States and other countries,
but the use of this machinery is con-
fined almost entirely to the cities and
large towns. The tens of thousands
of villages in China remain untouched
by the machine and in these hand
labor is still supreme.
Prejudiees Keep Machine Out.
Century-old prejudices and trsdi-
tionS among the people have operated
to keep the machine out. In the rural
parts of China human toll is held
to be not only practical necessity
but almost religion. Old American
residents of China can still remember
when the first railroad. running from
Shanghai to Woosung, was wrecked by
the Chinese because it was regarded
as of evil origin and because it trav-

and starvation for him.
Opposed Ricksha Rental.
How much rejudice there is against
the machine in China was strikingly
shown recently in Shanghai when the
authorities governing the International
Settlement attempted to better the
condition of the Chinese ricksha pull
ers by getting for them a decrease
from rs cents gold day to about l8
cents day on their rental of rickshas

SAGE RATS

While sage rats are making their
appearance at this time it has been
the general recommendation of the
Bureau of Biological Survey that it
is unwise to begin poisoning sage
rats as soon as they begin to show up
in the spring. The main objection
to this is that sage rats come out
rather slowly over period of time
unless the weather is very favorable
and poison distributed may become
destroyed before it will reach it's max
imum efficiency as far as consump-
ton on the part Of the sage rat is
concerned. IF you wait until sage rats
are out in abundance without wait
ing until there is a possibility Of the
young being developed to the point
that they can take care Of themselves,
much more effective results 'can be
secured.
Another reason for waiting is that
growers poisoning early in the spring
may kill off those sage rats already
out but these may be followed by a
second lot coming out from hiberna-
ton and the growers then feel that
the bait is not effective and becomes
discouraged at this method of control.
We have had q number Of state
ments from the wheat growers dur
ing the wheat program that the loss
from sage rats has been considerable
during the past year. There really is
no excuse for any heavy loss. g from
the wheat secrions and any other sec
ton in the COUNT. since tn,y can be

use of the poison cat bait.
