CfSDARVILLE, 0., HERALD, FRIDAY, MARCH 10,1933 Marvelous at Shanghai’* Buay Bund. B r.pixM bjr National GaoaraplUc Society. WMhlncton, D. C.—WNU Service. r j - I O SHANGHAI'S already com-. pier newspaper world was re­ cently added another foreign language paper—the Deutsche Shanghai Zeltung, which as its name Implies is printed In German. Two British, two American, many Chinese, a French, and other foreign language newspapers In addition to the German language paper are an index to the cosmopolitan aspect of the city. This aspect, too, is shown in the city’s lat­ est census where are recorded peoples of fifty foreign nationalities, and Chi­ nese speaking nearly all the numerous dialects of China. Shanghai is the greatest seaport in the Far East and emporium to one- eighth of the human race. A bold sky­ line of steel and concrete now rises where reeds once waved over marshy ’flats. The wide Bund, which throbs jwith the kaleidoscopic march of mo­ tors, electric trams, and other traffic, extends along the water front where boat trackers once beat a narrow foot­ path. Paper lanterns change to neon flights for advertising display signs; beside ubiquitous Chinese cabbage ,now are supplies of caviar; from fish­ in g to high finance has been the city’s (growth. ■ At.the end of the first year after It iwas formally opened as a treaty port, 1843, Shanghai could marshal for •statistical evidence o f foreign enter- • prise* and Industry only "23 foreign 'residences, one consular flag, 11 biisi- lness firms, and two missionaries.’’ To­ day it domiciles nearly 60,000 foreign­ ers; 17 consular flags wave in the Shanghai breezes and others have rep­ resentation; business firms are legion, and the city is headquarters for count­ less phases and branches o f mission­ ary and other activities. For a small fishing' village, hiding behind fortifying walls for protection against the inroads of Japanese pi­ rates (aided frequently by Chinese of like Mm* calling), and doing only a limited amount o f trade with coastal junks, to expand and become the* fifth .largest seaport of the world in less than 90 years is no mean accomplish­ ment In any land; but in China this .transition is an even greater marvel. To find the reason for this remark­ able transformation, one need not (Search far. A glance at the geography wf its position reveals why Shanghai 'should logically take rank as China's (key seaport. Ideal Distributing Center. Its situation, approximately midway along the China coast, makes it at !pnce the most natural distributing [center for extensive trade with coastal iports; but of far greater importance [la the fact that Shanghai commands jthe vital position for commerce at the jyery outlet of the whole Yangtze river (system. j In all the world it is doubtful wheth- ter there is another equally extensive (region of wealth where the people de- ,pend as solely upon a single artery of (traffic and upon one entrepot as do [the inhabitants of the Yangtze basin. Approximately 200,000,000 people, half o f the population of entire China, live lln this fertile area, utilizing the river, Its tributaries,, and its network of 'canals as their chief means of com- imunicatlon. Their needs, beyond •those supplied directly or indirectly by the products of their own hands, make business for Shanghai. As one’s steamer cleaves the muddy Yangtze waters and enters the Whang- poo on the approach of Shanghai, 'there is little to indicate that one is entering China unless a fleet of native fishing junks happens to be moving out to sea at the time. Today the skyline that marks Shang­ hai's water front is decidedly occiden­ tal in appearance and most strikingly impressive—an effect due in part, per­ haps, to its contrast with the flat al­ luvial plain rather than to the actual heights of the buildings. Until the present century, low, commodious Chinese buildings of two-and-three- story structures served a majority of the business concerns; but the Intro­ duction of excellently equipped mod­ em offices has initiated a period of extensive building. In a few minutes’ walk from the most up-to-the-moment districts of Shanghai, however, one can be in sur­ roundings that are little altered since the day when the first foreign firm marked out its business site in the muddy concession. Even the Native City Change*. Within the Nantao district, at the southern side o f the city, lies the old Chinese settlement, or Native City. Modernization has been slow to move NOTICE OF APPOINTMENT | state o f Charles C. Kyle, Deceased, I Eliza E. Kyle has been appointed • hd qualified as Executor of the estate ' t Charles C.

WRIGHT, Predate Judge o f sett County, in this locality, and native life takes much the same course that it fol­ lowed before steamship screws began stirring up- the muddy Whangpoo around the fishing junks and sampans. Even here, however, there have been change's. Since the republic has come into existence, the old wall that sur­ rounded the city has been demolished. Narrow cobbled streets with open sew­ ers running down their centers grad­ ually have given way to more cleanly concrete passages. Loathsome beg­ gars have somehow been reduced in numbers, although there are still more than enough of the pitiable wretches wandering about the streets.. A few timely fires have been a godsend in clearing out several’ disease' traps and pestholes, which have since been re­ built with somewhat better, structures. North of the International Settle­ ment lies the thickly populated Chi­ nese district' of Chapel. Chapel bor­ ders upon the Soochow Creek boun­ dary and is just back of (lie foreign district of Hongkew. This district, before the recent bombardments, was somewhat more modern and progres­ sive than the Native City region. Here, in Chapel, were located large Chinese business concerns devoted to export­ ing and importing. Here had sprung up offices, factories, and printing es­ tablishments, among the last named the Commercial Press, largest publish­ ing concern in China, valued at one and a quarter million dollars. But the focus of all Shanghai is the foreign settlements, for in them have been the remarkable incentive and ex- -pandlng force that have built this modem seaport. First allotted a por­ tion of land on the south side of Soo­ chow creek, following the Treaty of Nanking, in 1842, when Shangahi was indicated as one of the five treaty ports, British business established it­ self and expanded, digging drains and filling canals to make the concession, habitable., v Foreign Settlements. Six years later .France wa's conceded the territory between the British con­ cession and the Native City, and only a few years afterward Americans leased land in the Hongkew district, which extends along the Whangpoo Water front north of Soochow creek, where the river makes a sharp curve to the right. ! This so-called American settlement was never organized as such, but was incorporated with the British district in 1863. Thus came Into being the International Settlement, premier nu­ cleus of modern Shanghai. Other por­ tions of land have been added on the west, where old-timers used to bag snipe in off days from their offices. The French chose to •remain apart and today continue to adminster their own concession as a separate unit. The years have sfien a fast-moving panorama since the early days when th e ' International territorial fusion came into being, received nourishment, and became wltat lias - often been termed "The Model Settlement.’’ The administration of the International Settlement has beea in' many ways a unique experiment, perhaps without parallel in any other place; and re­ sults make it evident that (lie Shang­ hai municipal council has served the settlement well. The council is composed of a group of members elected by the taxpayers of British, American, Japanese, and, more recently, Chinese nationality. The number has been increased from time to time until 15 members are now included in the group that directs the affairs of the settlement of 1,008,* 000 people. Paving, policing, plunning—a multi­ tude o f tasks face the paternal body which, gratis, guards the interests of International Shanghai. A similar, but smaller, task confronts the 17 oth­ er men who handle the affairs of the French territory with its nearly 435,- 000 inhabitants. Because Shahghat has not always had a peaceful career, troops of. the four chief foreign nationalities have been maintained to give necessary pro­ tection to the residents of the city. Shanghai has nlso had a volunteer corps With a personnel of more thnn 2,000, which was orgonlzed at the time of the stress of tin L'alplng rebellion, in 1854, and has • en mobilized at various intervals of necessity during strikes and when the pot of Chinese political affairs has been boiling over. Big, bustling Shanghai, this titan of commerce in F a A s ia , lives beyond the boundaries o f any one settlement dr nationality; it commands all of them together for its life and trade. Well beyond three million people are numbered in the districts that form the whole of greater Shanghai.

Jesus Alone With the Apostles (vv. 31. 32). The result of the combined min­ istries of Jesus and the apostles was such a commotion, with the people coming and going, that there was no opportunity for resting or eating. In this time of stress and strain Jesus Invited the disciples to retire from ttie crowd and rest. Periods of with; ilrawal from the crowds in fellowship with the Lord are frequently desirable aml necessary. The benefit's of such retreats are: l. Physical recup.eration. We have this treasure in earthen vessels. It is absolutely imperative that there be periodical retirement for physical recuperation. 2.. Spiritual refreshment. - Even those who are engaged in witnessing for Christ need constant renewal-of, their spirits by personal contuct with the Lord. 3. To get one’s eyes off of self .u ease of either success or failuri and fixed upon Jesus Christ. III. Jesus Teaching the Ignorant Multitude (vv. 33. 34).. 1. Thronged by the people (v. 36). The wonderful words and works of tlm Lord and the disciples, brought the multitudes to them. To escape the throng they took departure to n desert place (v. 32). Seeing the Lord,and his disciples leaving, the people from the surrounding cities anticipated their landing place so tlmt upon the arrival of the ship they were already there. 2. Jesus moved with compassion (v. 34). Instead of becoming Irri­ tated by the Intrusion of the crowd. Ids personal interests were forgotten as the needs of the shepherdless sheep pressed upon his notice. Therefore, be began to tench them many things. IV. Jesus Feeding the Hungry Mul­ titude (vv. 35-44). 1. Conference with the disciples (vv. 85-38).- a. The disciples requested that the multitude be sent to the surrounding villages to buy bread (v. 36). Accord­ ing. to Matthew JesUs made the propo­ sition . that the multitude-' be fed (Malt. 14:16). h. Jesus commanded them to feed the multitude (v, 37). • e. The disciples’ perplexity (v. 37). Their perplexity was due to the fact Hint they were depending upon their own resources instead of Christ. To enirie face to face 'with the humanly impossible has a threefold benefit: (1) it makes us realize our de­ pendence upon Christ ’ (2.) It drives us to him for help. (3) It lends us to give him the glory for the results. Though our ability to teach, preach, or to give lie meager, when coupled with the Lord’s ability- It Is equal to any demand which niny be made. % Jesus' method In feeding the multitude (vv, 39-44). p, The Lord’s part. Tills was to give Instruction as to the method of procedure and to create the provision. He .so Increased five lonves and two fishes that the need of the hungry multitude was met. b. The disciples’ part. They Were to have the people sit down in com­ panies so ns to facilitate distribution. They then took that which the Master had blessed and distributed it.- The disciples’ responsibility was not for the creation of the provision, but for Its distribution to the people, c. The peoples’ part. Their part whs not to create," nor to distribute, but to partake of the provision. Unless peo­ ple receive Jesus Christ and the salva­ tion which he has provided, they will eternally starve. 1 Stand* Forever The grass wftherelh.

Egg Production Increased by Artificial Lights. By H. E. Gray, Poultry BpeclalUt, Agricul­ tural Extension Service. Ohio State University.—WNU service. Fooling the farm flock into work­ ing overtime by the use of artificial lights Is a sound, profitable practice. Experiments with the use of arti­ ficial ilghts indicate that they do not materially increase the total yearly production, but hate a tendency to pro­ duce a more even production through­ out the year, The winter egg produc­ tion is Increased at the expense of spring production, The principal val­ ue of this change in the distribution of production is that, it induces an in­ creased egg yield during the winter months when eggs are high In price; In this way the use of artificial lights will result in a greater labor income for the year, even though there is no rise in annual production. Lights help the poultryman In sev­ eral wdys. With early hatched pullets the use of artificial lights aids in main­ taining pullets in production through- ju t the winter without loss of weight and the subsequent molt. Today, it is aot an uncommon thing to find a flock of January hatched pullets going into production about July 1 and continuing with an egg yield at about 50 per cent or better during fall and winter. In brief, the use of artificial lights Increases winter egg production, boosts 'he labor income, stimulates produc­ tion during periods of high prices, is not detrimental to the health of the (lock, and does.not reduce the hatch- ability of eggs produced by the flock. “Pressure Necrosis” Is 4 Name o f Chick Disease Not long ago a correspondent in­ quired relative to a peculiar, "disease" among four-weeks-old baby .chicks. The mouth of the chick showed ac- cumulations In the roof and also un­ der the tongue. Severe infiammation had set in and swelling of the affected, parts occurred. Apparently the trou­ ble had progressed so that losses were occurring. This peculiar trouble Is known as “ Pressure Necrosis." It is not a dis­ ease but follows the feeding of rations which are too pasty and which are ground too fine. Due to the pulver­ ized condition of the feed some of it becomes Impacted in the roof of the mouth. Additional feed accumulates and the impaction o f food shuts off the circulation that the poorly nourished organs degenerate. Obviously the prevention of such trouble is to avoid feeding rations which are too finely pulverized or which contain too much pasty food­ stuffs.—Missouri Farmer. Feed Valued Compared Four lots o f cockerels with eight In each lot were used at the Dominion Experimental station, at Scott, Sask., to compare the following mixtures and systems of fattening: 1—Equal .parts of wheat, oats, barley and potatoes. 2—-Wheat alone. 3—Wheat, oats and parley in equal part 4—Same mixture as lot three. Lots 1, 2 and 3 were fed in standard fattening crates but lot 4 was fed In a pen 8. by 14 feet The test continued for 20 days and the total gains per lot Of eight birds were as follows: 1—Wh^at, oats, bar­ ley, potatoes, grain, v13.8 pounds. 2— Wheat alone, 12.3 pounds. '8—Wheat, oats, barley (crate fed), 12.8 pounds: I—Wheat bats, barley (pen fed), 13.1 pounds. The total cost of feed was 63, 53, 48, and 46 cents, respectively. The pen fed lot made slightly greater gains than the crate fed lot getting the same feed. Affects Size o f Egg One thing that affects the size of the egg laid jb? a pullet Is the age at which she begins to lay. In breeds that have a tendency to mature at an early age It Is nof’ advisable to select exceptionally early maturing Individu­ als as breeders since they are likely to be undersized and the females will usually lay a small egg throughout Ufa. Poultry Notes Sour sklmrallk or buttermilk Is a very desirable food to give turkeys, and the feeding of dry mashes with greens is also desirable. • * • Feed, which is approximately 50 per cent of the brooding cost, should be bought I d large quantities at cash prices to take advantage of all sav­ ings, Store the feed carefully, away from rats and mice. Eliminate waste by using efficient feed hoppers. * • • * Poultrymen producing eggs for set­ ting purposes with the help of arti­ ficial lamplight should provide a ra­ tion containing green feed, cod-liver oil and milk In some form. The green feed may be alfalfa-leaf meal, alfalfa hay, or soybeans. - * * • Thirty-seven and one-half pounds of eggs were laid by the winning pullet In the western New York egg-laying contest. That is equivalent •to 310 eggs, weighing 24 ounces to the dozen, or more than eight times the weight pf the hen that laid them. .
