It is perhaps. a tribute to the pro-
gress made by Christianity in China
that organizations have been formed
recently to combat it. But it is not a
sign that the believers in the teach-
ings of Confucius are jealously alarm-
ed lest China become a Christian:
country, The recent organizations
and the ,declarations they have eat
forth are not defences of Confucian-
ism. They are primarily denuncia--
tions ot Christianity, and secondly,
denunciations. of religions. generally"
One would infer that the educated
youth ot China. and the class known
as the New Men. are turning toward
free thought. and .maybe. toward se-
cialism. They do tot desire to turn
their countrymen back to Confuoian-
leny, but they have been looking over
Europe. then have been. thinking
about the Great War, and they have
come to the conclusion that at its
best Christianity is a 'delusion,. and
Haat at its worst, it may become a
positive ,longer to the nation. In the
denuuetatlon of Christianity, `capital=
ism and imperialism are included, and
religion is denounced as a mere cloak
for the operation of the two latter
evils.
Last March the Non -Christian
Student Federation of the Pekin
National University, which is the
most Important educational institu-
tion In C4ina, issued a manifesto
addressed to all the atudent bodies
in the empire" It was not an official
document, thougli among Iia signa-
tortes was Tsai Yuan -Pei. the chan-
cellor ot the lnstttution, and one of
the host notable educationists and
philosophers in China. We quote Its
more important paragraphs: --
"The slats of religion are too
numerous to mention. Speaking o1
Its moral aide we Lind that it
teaches amen obedience, which Is the
moral code of slaves, Speaking of
its Intellectual side we find that it
propagates superstitions which hin-
der the search, for truth. Speaking
of Its material side we find that it
asks its believers to despise tempor-
ary thiols and to dream of the King-
dom of Heaven, which would end in
the destruction of human life. Its
teachings .are absolutely valueless,
while its evils are incalculable. Yet t
its iuiiuence is growing every day,
This is due to the fact that those
who are doing evil have an organiz-
ation, while we who are opposed to
religion have not.
-Of all religions Christianity is, we
feel. the most destestable. One sin
which Christianity is guilty of and
which particularly makes our hair
risco on an end is its collusion with
• militarism. and capitalism. The influ-
is growing
este of Christianity
c
g g
stronger day by day, and when this
force becomes more triumphant the
methods f capitalism will be more
drastic. Christianity is the public en-
emy of mankind just as imperialism
and capitalism Are, since they have
one thing in common, to exploit weak
countries. Realizing that China has
long been an object of exploitation
of the capitalistic and imperialistic
countries of the world, Christianity
is utilizing the opportunity to extend
its influence. It is the Intelligence
officer of the capitalists and the hire-
ling of the imp'rialistic countries.
If no effort is made t. Exterminate
this evil it is impossible to foretell
its dangers in the future, We who
have had a deep hatred of °Christian-
ity for a long time are unanimous in
our opposition and have just organis-
ed a non-Christian student federation
to co-operate with you in the exterm-
ination of this evil fiend until China
gets rid of it."
The questions suggested In these
paragraphs: have evidently been a
matter of consideration by the edu-
cated young women of the land, for
we find that the Non -Christian
Federation of the Pekin Teachers'
College for Women has thus ex-
pressed itself:-- t'
"Religion destroys true reason,.
obstructs progress and disgraces
human; history. r It has worked in-
defatigably. againsti, the growth of.
women's rights. In this respect
Christianity is most : detestable."
The Blang Middle School (Hunan
Province non-Christian federationists
harp oil a similar string: "'The' Chris-
tian religion impedes our progress,
stultifies our intelligence, fetters -our.`
nature, disgraces our personality, pol-
lutes our brains and suppresses our
conscience," etc. And this is from
the declaration of the Nanking Non -
Christian Student Federation, whose
secretary's office is in the Southeast-
ern University there: "With the
world's civilization reaching its pres-
ente high-water mark, every one
knows that his achievement and glory
in life depends solely upon' his own;
endeavor and not upon' spiritual help
and that religion has long lost its
raison d'etre. We should tnerefore
oppose all religions. Viewed in this
light, our present opposition to the
spread of Christianity is but a press
ing duty of the' moment," etc.
These' are the , sentiments of im-
portant bodies of Chinese who have
been most impregnated with all
Occidental ideas save those of relig-
ion, tut all the New Men of China do
not share. them. The hostile declar-
ations have been met by others that
are friendly. One was issued by sev-
eral

It Is essential that there should be
sutitclent moisture present in the
fodder at the time it is be4nif put

and leave the surplus necessary to
have amply moist well made silage,
after the fermentative and cooling
processes have taken place. 'With suf-
ficient moisture present in the ensiled
mass there is little danger of the
fermentation temperatures running
too high, the greater the amount of
water present the firmer the writ fod-
der will pack and the smaller •1 n*

hay melting carry sufficient water in
the natural juices to meet the re-
quirement for ensilage. Frequently
it is necessary to use corn, oats, peas
or sunilowers that have suffered from
drouth, or have dried through de-
lays or have been permitted to remain
unharvested until long past the beat
condition for silage making. If so,
the shortage of plant juicoa can be
made up by the application of water
in quantity sufficient to thoroughly
wet the fodder.
now to Apply the Extra Moisture.
Water is best applied by running a
stream directly roto the fodder cut-
ter
utter while the redder is being passed
through and blown up into the silo.
With water unties pressure, a valve
to control the Bev and a seettou of
garden hose the process of wetting'
the cut fodder is easily accomplished.
Corn fodder that has remained in the
field until Deeniuer and become quit:

Mustard.
Fields that are heavily infested
'with,mustard.can frequently b. turn-
ed to good account by using such
areas for the production ` of silage
fodders. The sowing of peas and oats
in the proportion of one bushel of
oats to one bushel of,peae per acre
(the mustard, will come roiunteer),
will make a very acceptable silage.
Mustard has a high feeding value,
and the seed in the soil can be ex-
hausted in tine by following the
practice of using ` mustard infested
lands for silage 'crops, cutting the
entire mass, cereal, legume and weeds
and putting all in the silo In a finely
cut and packed condition.
