A good many, indeed, have horses,

Bishop Marvin tints deseril.es the
cultivation of the soil: ‘*Tlie soil is
prepared, for planting by the spade,
a:t«l the cultivated portions are gen*
erally flat—ne t always. But for rice,
1 a nat uralh hat surface is not found,
it. is maut hy terracing aslope. Over
this water is run front ditehes, and
the rice, iist sown in beds, is t.ranH*
planted ly the hand hi overflowed
ground, the Inborn* standing often
knee deep in mud and water. It is
planted in bunches, and they in
straight rows. Tim ditches an- kept
all the time in perfect repair, and
every square yard of ground is eii!-
tinted with as much eare as tin* best
gardens in America. In the regions
ilnniigh which I passed every availa-
hie foot was in cultivation. Every
little strip and patch by the road-side
was spaded up and planted, either in
rice or vegetables. This incessant
iao.ir and burden-beariug has had its
effect on the muscles of ihe men.
On- of the first tilings a foreigner
notices is the enormous size of the
muscles in their legs. Ai:d all thin
toil is so poorly remunerated that it
must he incessantly kept up only to
keep soul and body together. Rice
is tueir principal tood. At present
the labeling classes are ground down
to the earth and they have no Sun

WHAT PERSISTENT EFFORT CAN AC
COMPLISH.
[ Savannah News.]!
I have seldom read a more attrac
tive and entertaining work than “ To
t\e East by the Way of the HH”
the same being the late Bishop L.
M. liarvin’s narrative of his visit to
China and Japan. Mr. Logan D.
Dameron, Manager ot the Advocate,
Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo., ha*
placed a copy in my hands, and 1
wish to give your agricultural read-
rs sonic idea of what the Bishop
thought of Japanese farming.
It seems that they have a scientific
agricultural editor in that country,
which indicates an interest of no
ordinary character in farming pur
suits. In speaking of this editor (a
Mr. Tsuda) who lives in the suburbs
of Tokio, Bishop Marvin says : “ He
is perhaps the most v* idely known of
any private man in the empire. He
is a scientific agriculturist, and under
the new rejime, has charge ot at)
expei imcntnl farm wilder the auspices
of the government. Ho also publish
es an agricultural journal, a monthly
in pamphlet form. So widespread
is his correspondence over the whoh
empire that he has to employ a
private secictaiy to answer letters.
* * * *
lie is the only private citizen in tie
tin ( ire who has ever received any
attention from the Mikado Ilis
Majesty had him Ito dine with him
one day, as a mark of appreciation of
the gieat service he is doing in itn
proveing the agrienltmal condition
of the country.?
Of the plowing in Japan, Bisho)
Marvin has this to day: “The
'round in this country is prepared
for planting by the spade. It is not
in hr in‘erred, licrwr-ver. tl at then
no plowing. A great deal oftfc
ground is hr;tkeu tup hy the plow, hut
peat deal of it, again, never sees a
plow. And even when die plow lias
done itn work the whole surface is
gone over again with hoe ami rake,
so that the amount of labor is im-al
Ridable* The only .{plowing 1 have
seen is with a single on, hitched with
ropes, the plow lx;ing small, and
having' ovdjr one handle. TheJuft is,
as I have put it, human muscle
depended on fbv alino-t everything,
and there is neither lahoi savin
contrivance i«or the relief of any
Sabbath.”
That the Japanese laborer bears
heavy burdens, and pursues an tin*
ceasing toil, is shown in tin* following
extracts: “l .passed through .(oil
Sunday3 a crowded part of the city
[Dai Nippon], and saw the toiling
thousands who hate no,. Sunday- It
was a heart-sickening sight. 1%
pOHi tint huiiian muscle is nowhere
more severely taxed than in Japai
and it lias no Sunday, but the exact
ing toil goes on until death brings
the final i dense. There is an im
mense amount of work done, rod
human muscle does it nearly all In
lokio there arc now a lew vtbanes them ns they come,
drawn hy horses, hut only a very
few. In Yokohama I did rot see
•one, except, a few buggies owned hy
foreign residents. Two carls 1 saw
•drawn by a single ox each; but the
-dun.sy-wheeled vehicles loaded with
iumber, earth, stone—everything, in
shori, ivip»ired in a growing city—
and drawn by men, were abundant;
and tiiey were loaded so heavy that
the utmost muscular strain war re
quisite t» move them. In the conn-
try, with the exception of the great
Tokaido, the roads will admit of no
vehicle hut the narrow jinrikisha, so
that the produce of the country goes
to market either on the shoulders of
men or on the backs of pack hoises;
aid, judging from wh.it I saw, I
auould say that by far the greater
put is carried by men. A pole with
baskets, Le.yes or packages suspended
increase is doiiv, JEverything that
can he used for notnjiost to fatten the
soil is saved and mode the most of.
Neither from the house nor stable is
anything allowed to go to waste Any
gill of stuff, no m atter what, that will
contribute to the larger growth of a
few rice, or wheat, or cotton stalks,
is sedulously preserved for use at the
right moment. Nor is any labor
spared. Every clod is pulverized as
it tor an ornamental garden Every
weed is exterminated the moment it
show.1 its head. We saw fields made
i where the soil had all been taken off
for the grading of the railroad, and a
new and excellent soil had been
made. * * * l'he scenery is
picturesque iu the highest degree,
but in early summer, when ail th
fields are waving with the grow tug
crops, these*hill-sidcs must he inex
pressibly beautiful. Even now there
are green fields of turnips and rad
ishes to break the. monotony and
cheer the eye. Two crops, one of
cereals and one of vegetables, fire pi o«
din-ed on the same "and. Indeed
there is often a ciop >t cotton or rice
made after one ot wheal The cotton
is planted in rows between the rows
of wheat— everything* is in rows as
straight as a line—a mouth before
harvest, no that when the wheat is
taken off the cotton will be three or
four inches high If rice is to follow,
it i« in beds ready for transplanting,
an l so soon as the wheat is removed
the ground is prepared and flood*J,
and the rice set out.’’
