Dear Exfpooltors- - Just a little about the annual Pic- nic at the California State Agricul, tural College and Fraricierttal Sta- tion, or Atli st as sometimes called, the • University Farm. This fawn is situ, ated about #sixteen abides west Sacramen.., and adjoining the town of Davis. _. ... -eted as a State Farm about :. ire ago and there has been en annual picnic held for several years. The first of th picnics that I attended was in year 1920, or one year ago. lit w held on the 24th of April and as do not get a chance to take a holid on the 24th of May very often this country I thought the nest be thing was to take the 24th of Apr So three friends, my wife and I w over in the auto which takes abo half an hour over a very good roe We had a very good day's opti except for a disagreeable nort wind. The attendance last year we estimated at about • eighteen thou sand people. This year the r Yi was held on April 23rd and :.;a there was a nasty north w' .i. think one,uf our Sacrament. reaper 'in speaking of the picnic tit:s yea gave the attendance as eel• .,t twent thousand, but I saw the r .a who wa keeping tally at the gate just abo five o'clock sad be said just a litt over seven thousand people and pea ly two thousand automobiles 'ha errteeeu the gate, and several them had gone in twice or snore an had been counted each time, so tha the attendance' really was less the that. It was noticeable that the a tendance this year was not as larg as last year, and the only reason know for this was that the nort wind last year was so disagreeslbl that the people were afraid to tr it again. But north wind and a we had a very good day this yea also. The farm contains shot eleven hundred acres of land, wit very good buildings and pretty fai stock, but l consider it much mor of an agricultural college or experi mental station than a model farm The soil is very good and in a goo part of the State for conducting ex periments in agriculture and horti culture. The people of the souther part 'of the State claim that thei climate and conditions in general ar very much more suitable for such farm and university than where it i situated, and I am not sure but the are right; but the majority of th people in this part of the State ar quite sure that it is in the prape place. A few of the features of th picnic were: A stock judging con test for the students, a parade o stock, tractors and floats represent ing the work along different lines Then there was a sheep shearin contest by the students, but no pro fessionals or men of experience wer allowed. .Another feature was tha the farm supplied coffee, sugar an milk free for all the picnickers lunches, also free buttermilk fo everybody and plenty of it. Las year the buttermilk ran out early in the afternoon, but this year I thin the buttermilk cow must have been a Holstein as there seemed to b plenty of it and it lasted all day Last year I missed the sheep shear ing contest and intended to see i this year, but again I was late sen only saw the last man. It was quit evident that he was a novice at the business and I rather think it was his first attempt, and for a time it was rather uncertain whether he was skinnink the sheep or shearing it. Ht had the sheep lying fiat on the ground, the nine was down on his knees with the sheep's head between his legs, (in my young days I was told to pull the hide, not the wool,) but this young fellow kept pulling the wool which was the cause of him cutting the hide so -much. After a while he stood up with one foot on tbt. ground and the other on the shecrp's neck to hold it down, and was shearing lengthwise instead of clip - pint; around and letting the wool fall away from his shears. But af- ter he had struggled with the job far shout fifteen minutes and -was nettling pretty well warmed up, an- other man of some experience step- ped up and set the sheep up in right position and finished the job in a short time, In this country sheep are always clipped without washing. A goof' sheep shearer can shear one hundred sheep in a day, but I have never seen such clean-cut neat work of shearing in this country as in On - tank) by such men as Bill or Jim Chesney, Billy McNaughton or Billy Grennio and several others. There were a few am,ucing or ridiculous fea- tures and clown acts in the parade, but it was mostly pretty good. The tractors in the parade were the Holt, Avery, Cletrac, Best, Case, Interna- tional and Fordson. There may have been others that I do not remem r- The horses on the farm are c cherons and Shires, the Perchers the most numerous. They have so • . very fine horses, especially a fo horse team of dappled gray P cherons, but I do not consider't of their horses world beaters. T beef cattle are Shorthorns, Herefor - and Aberdeen Angus, some very fir. animals, and they claim several world championships, especially in Herefords and I think one Aberdeen Angus, hurt with one or two excep- tions I think I saw just as good berdeen Angus cattle at Alex. cEwings in Hul.lett three or four ars ago. For dairy cattle they ve Jersey, Gurnsey, Airabire and olstein. For quality of milk in e order I have mentioned them with e .Jersey first, and for quantity just e reverse with Holstein first. I ok notice to just -a few of the ivy cows records for one year. ne Holstein cow gave 22643 pounds milk with 677 pounds of butter t which is nearly three per cent, nether Holstein gave 19409 pounds milk with 689 pounds of butter alt, orr eleven pounds .more bunter t and 3284 pounds less milk than other. One Ayrshire cow gave 18 pounds of milk with 321 pounds butter fat. One Jersey cow gave use the as ay in st we ut d. ng h is in s, y ut le r- t - 11 o£ d t h 1 d - 6319 pounds of milk with 380 pounds - of butter fat, which is about six per n cent. There were a lot of cattle out ✓ in the pasture not any better than e you would see on many 'an Ontario a farm, but they Sure have a few very s fine, both beef and dairy cattle. Y The sheep seemed to be Romney, e Rambouillet, Hampshire, Shropshire, e and Southdowne. The hogs Hamp- ✓ shire, Berkshire, Durock Jersey and e Poland China. I think more of the - latter two than the others. Then they have a great many goats but - I will not butt in and try to tell • what breed the goats are, Raising g goats in California has got to be quite a business, both for milk and e for mutton. Some of the best goats t give as much as six quarts of milk d a day and of a very good quality. Some say that what will feed one ✓ cow will feed ten goats. It has been t considered that goats are immune from disease and therefore safer k both for milk and for mutton, but I see lately that they have been found e subject to several diseases, including • tuberculosis jrut,.gtdt nearly so much - so as tither- sheep or cattle. Many I, of the butchers sell goat meat as mutton regularly and sometimes it e may be rather difficult to tell it from sheep although I generally think that I know the difference. I will not say anything about the fruit or grain, as I did not have time in one day to pay much attention to anything but the stock, and to see that I got plenty to eat and enough buttermilk to drink.

There is a wide -spread idea that the Chinaman in Canada is either coni- paratively wealthy, or b't:coming so. One who is in close touch with them both here and in South China, tells me that while a few Have, no doubt, become wealthy, using the term in their limited conception of wealth, yet the majority are having difficulty in making money. One city cafe, which is doing a large business, nets its three partners only a thousand a year each, based on very long hours, the expenses of operation being $15,000. Laundry men have, as a rule, harder work and less return than any others of their class. Chinamen operate on a wider scale in the Canadian West. In British Columbia, they are successful mariket gardeners, while others serve as rail- way section hands or as miners. Cal- gary has a successful Chinese -owned and operating knitting 'mill, the head of which, a highly respected Chinese gentleman, is an elder in Knox Pres- byterian church. During the war; many Chinese worked in some Ontario manufacturing establish- ments, but they as a rule do not take to this form of industry. It should be remembered, in fair- ness to the Chinaman, that Chinese communities in Canada have the low- est percentage criminal record of any foreigners. Vagrants are practically unknown. Where there is sickness, or other disability, members of the same family or clan will undertake . their support. "To those who are their friends, they show their better natures; to their enemies, or those of whom they are suspicious, they maintain a hidden hatred or a reserved silence. To know them 'as they are is to sympathize with and to appreciate them." So says Rev. W. D. Noyes, a representative of the Presbyterian church who has been recently ap- pointed superintendent of that de- nomination's work among the Chinese in Eastern Canada. Mr. Noyes lived for several years, as a child and youth, in South China where he learned Cantonese before he could speak his native tongue. Later, he became a teacher and principal in a high school.. in Canton, and is now in Canada for a time. Mr. Noyes has recently visited Chinese in over fifty centres in East- ern Canada in order to ascertain their conditions and to get into sympathetic end helpful touch with them. He has been everywhere welcomed, their Nationalistic League halls being open to him for meetings. In' Toronto, Montreal, Hamilton and Ottawa from cue -eighth to one-third of the local Chinese are being reached by Sunday schools of the Protestant denomin- ations, with results that the band of voluntary workers declare to be en- couraging, despite the many and obvious difficulties. And many of the city churhehes are constantly receiv- ing the Chinese as members. For ex- ample, College Street Presbyterian Church, Toronto, received last year thirteen Chinese into full communigp. Toronto has a successful Chinese Young Men's Christian Association; Montreal also has a fine plant. An organization of fifty young Chinese in IIamilton has opened and equipped •a centre; even the Ottawa Chinese have acquired a room to seat 150. Winnipeg, Vancouver and Victoria - have mission halls and social centres of the Great Lakes leaving the great - welcomed: in all of them church workers are er number in the west.

Not oral hundred dollars in 'their King - many years ago a Chinaman was al- sten colony for hospital purposes. Montreal Chinese subscribed $2,500 toward a Baptist academy. The com- - paratively few Christian Chinese in Montreal also raised over $7,000 to- ward their mission buildings, and underwrote an equal amount to com- plete the enterprise. The Chinese Christian Association in Toronto has secured pledges of $10,000 for larger and better quarters. In China itself, 25,000 men from one district in South China raised $225,000 for a first-class hie*h s- in their county seat.
