A GREAT * FAMINE PREVAILS IN THREE LARGE PREFECTURES. Children Leave Schools and Wand- er Over Hills in Search of Leaves for Food--A Relief Fund Has Been Started. Tokio, Jan. 16,--A great famine pre- | vails among the farmers in the three prefectures' of Fukushima, Miyagi, and i Iwate; in the eastern part of the main {island of Japan. The agricultural population, numbering over 1,000,000, are practically starving, and the wea- ther is intensely cold, Owing to the rains in the spring and autumn the silk cocoon business has been entirely spoiled, and the rice crop is a com- plete failure, Whereas the average vield is 14.90, this year it is only 1.9, In the event of frost coming even this small harvest will be ruined. The people had no reserves, and con- sequently the children were kept away from the schools to wander over the neighboring hills and mountains to collect vegetable leaves for food. Even the stock of leaves is nearing its end. Now the children are offering to work { for the richer classes in return for meals. The men and women are hunt- ing for Tocusts;--and. catching eels in the muddy pools. In. the Miyagi pre- feoture the rice is almost grainless and everywhere there is desolation, There can be no practical demonstra- tion of welceme when the soldiers re- turn home to the districts affected by the famine, The people have for some time been suffering privations, but, out of their sense of patriotism, dur- ing the war they did not complain of their suffering .to the world.
