the flowers used by the owner during

illions, teas and receptions she had at

by long ribbon strings to the backs

Yet another use is to be made of rose
petals which may not sound so artis-
tic, perhaps, but to the woman who is
fond of daintily perfumed clothing it
is equally as acceptable. Petals are
sewn in thin muslin bags and placed in
bureau and chiffonier drawers among
the clothing. One young woman boasts
that she has rose bag for each sleeve
Of every one of her bodices, besides a
goodly supply for her bureau drawers.

Owing TO the rapid development during
the last few years of new wheat-producing
areas In othor parts of the world and the
increasing competition the United states
Is thus compelled 90 meet I'm the markets
of Europe the future disposal of our sur
plus wheat Is becoming problem of no
little Importance A solution Of this
difficulty IL has been suggested that the
changes now taking place in tho civiliza-
tions OF japan and China may result In
the opening there uf markets for our
wheat that will. TO some extent, compen-
safe us for possible losses TO be incurred
through the growing competition of other
countries in the European markets we
were formerly able 10 control There are
certainly some very encouraging indica-
tions as 20 the plausibility OF this sugges-
tion according to "a report Of the ssreign
markets section OF our Agricultural De-
partment.
Chief among these indications is the re-
markable manner IN which our exporta-
tions of wheat 20 eastern Asia have in.
creased during the decade just closing.
Most OF this wheat is shipped in the form
of flour, the exports of grain 4being com.
paratiyely small. The total shipments of
wheat flour from the United States To
Japan and China (including Hongkong)
during the ten years ended June 30, 1885,
according TO the official trade returns pub.
lished by the Bureau Of Statistics of the
Treasury Department. amounted to fully
5000 600 barrels, and by far the larger part
OF this quantity was exported in tho latter
half OF the decade. The amount exported
during fiscal year 1884, the opening year OF
tho decade, was returned at 409. l47 barrels
In 1896 ten years later, our shipments
reached as high as o43 073 barrels show
ing gain for the deoennial period OF
more than 100 per cont
Still further gains are indicated by the
figures thus far available for the current
fiscal year. According TO those figures our
total shipments To Japanese and Chinese
ports iduring the nine months ended
March 81, 1897, amounted 20 $50. 204 bar
rels. With proportionately large exporta-
tions for the three remaining months
the total amount OF wheat -four shipped
to those countries during the entire fiscal
year 1897 should reach above million
barrels. which would be equivalent to
more than four and one-half million
bushels Of wheat.
