TRADE FROM EXPANSION.
Increased Imports and Exports
Through Acquisition of New
Territory.

From figures just published by the
bureau of statistics of the United
States treasury department it APP
pears that trade between the United
States and its newly-acquired posses
sions has had growth that is fairly
phenomenal, says the Albany Jour
nal.
In 1897, the year before that in
which the Philippines passed into the
possession of the United States, our
exports to the archipelago amounted
to only $9i,597. In 1899, our total
exports to the Philippines were val
ued at Si0i,l95 in 1900, at S2.6i0,440;
In 1901, at $4,027 ,064, and when the
figures for the fiscal year 1902 are
made up, il will be shown that fully
5000 200 worth OF American prod
ucts were sent 20 the Philippine arch
ipelago.
To Porto Rico this country in 1897
sent $l,9SS,SS worth of articles. In
the fiscal year 1901 the exports to
that island from the United States
aggI egated $9,65l, 900, and a conserva-
tive estimate for the fiscal year just
closed is that the total value of our
exports TO Porto Rico will lie shown
to be well above $4,000 900
10 Hawaii, which in 1891 received
AMERICAN products worth $3.50 .O75,
American exporters are now sending
about S2O,OOO,OOO worth of goods an
bually.
Within the same five years. imports
from the three insular possessions
have likewise increased greatly, but

DIPPING FOR PARASITES.
There L. No other Successful Way of
Removing Troublesome Pests
from sheep.

Parasites Of all kinds are not ONLY
injurious to the wool of sheep. but to
the health of the animals as well. and
dipping to destroy them should be re
sorted to wherever and whenever they
are present at sheariug time. There
IL no other way to remove the trou-
blesome pests except by repeating dip
ping. and sometimes il requires Il good
many to accomplish the desired end.
Ticks will worry the thin. weak sheep
more than the strong ones, and they
seem to congregate on them in such
numbers as to cause their death.
Sometimes the ticks appear on the
sheep shortly after dipping, and the
impression is made that the dipping
lid not free them from the parasites:
but this is Il mistake. The trouble was
that the ticks were in the sheds or
stables where the sheep were kept
and by putting the animals back in
their infested quarters the ticks soon
oveTed them again. The living quar-
tiers of the sheep must also he treated
with the solution by spraying and
washing and in this way we protect
the animals from a future invasion.
y second dipping should follow the
first about ten days later, and the liy-
ing quarters should also receive "a src-
ond spraying. Sometimes where the
para-it ties are very numerous "a third

Made InvalidS for Life

Thousands Of children who grow up to
become weak and sickly men and women,
owe their condition to the ignorance of
their mothers. That they would willingly
cause their own children hours of misery
and pain is not true, but the fact remains
that through ignorance or neglect they are
continually doing so. ~
This is probably best shown in the treat
ment of minor ailments in children. Take,
for instance, common coughs and colds.
In such cases, nine out of ten mothers will
at once begin to dose the children with
sweet, sticky cough syrups, expectorants
Or morphine mixtures, in spite of the fact
that such mixtures cannot possibly reach
the cause of the disease, and cannot be
Kidneys
In ninety-five cases out of every hun
dred, stomach and kidney troubles can be
traced to just such remedies, while
ninety-nine per cent of all consumptives
have contracted this disease because an
ordinary cough did not receive proper
treatment.
In this enlightened day mothers neg
lect becomes crime, for during the past
year thousands of dollars have been ex-
pended to teach them that all diseases
of the respiratory organs are caused sole
ly by germs located in the air passages:
that stomach medicines never can DESTROY
these germs; that cough germs live from
five to nine days, then die of their own
accord. If the cough continues after this,
Ut is because the germs of bronchitis or
consumption have lodged on the raw spots
caused by cough germs, and new disease
has been started
Should it not be considered a crime,
then, for mothers to dose their children
with stomach medicines? Especially so
when by simply inhaling the new germi-
eide, HYOMEI, for few moments daily,
all germs of coughs, catarrh, Group, bron-
chitis and consumption can be destroyed
Mothers have no excuse for not using this
new remedy, for the R. T. Booth Co., Ithaca
N. Y, will send them five days treatment
free on application, or will forward a com
