TRADE IN CANNED GOODS.
Increase in Use at Home and Abroad
i'm 1906.

Washington. D. C.-Tne increas-
ing use of timed" foods at home
and abroad is made the subject of
comment by the Bureau of Statistics
of the Department of Commerce and
Labor, based on the total exports for
the fiscal year 1906, just ended. In
that rear the United States exported
owe SIS 100000 worth of canned
foods, which is an increase of sixty
per cent. W. the exports of 1896.
More than a third of this trade was
in canned beef; a sixth of the total
was canned salmon; an eighth, fruit.
The other items included canned
milk, pork, vegetables and caviar.
The increasing demand is notice
able in the tropics and in the Orient,
although the United Kingdom is still
by far the largest customer in all
canned articles. In addition to the
totals given, Hawaii, Porto Rico and
Alaska together bought $1,250,00O
worth of canned goods from the Uni
ted States.

Fertilizers For Fall Wheat.

J. A. S. writes: / would like some
information about fertilizers for fall
wheat. In what proportion should l
mix acid phosphate fourteen per cent,
muriate of potash and nitrate of soda
for best results, and what amount
should be sown per acre? Would this
mixture injure the wheat if drilled
in with it?
Answer-A. very good fertilezer
for wheat which you can mix IL
home with perfect satisfaction is one
composed of 125 to $50 pounds of
high grade acid phosphate, that is
sixteen per cent. available, fifty
pounds of nitrate of soda and twenty
five pounds of muriate of potash.
You speak of using fourteen per cent.
available. Purchase the sixteen per
cent. by all means You can obtain
it all right if o call for it, and it
will cost you but little more than the
fourteen per cent. The acid phos-
phate and muriate of potash should
be mixed together and drilled in with
the wheat, and the nitrate of soda
applied as a top dressing after the
wheat has come up. We have found
the mixture suggested and used at
the rate of 200 pounds per acre a
satisfactory application for wheat.
Heavier applications have not given
us as large profit in proportion as
the amount suggested. Sometimes
larger applications will give practic-
ally the same results on rich land.
Phospnates and potash should be ap-
piled as a rule to most of our wheat
land The nitrogen can be more
cheapIy supplied through cowpeas,
clover and various other legumes
than through the purchase and ut.l-
iZation of nitrate of soda.

S~KYSCRAPER DEATH LIST.
156 Out of 1853 Men Killed or Dis
abled in Single Year.

Chicago Chicago s~kyscrapers
during the last year exacted the
heaviest toll of human life recorded
in the history of building operations
in the city. Figures complied in the
annual death roll of the Bri6g e and
Structural Iron Workers Union show

bers of that craft to be surprisingly
large.
OF a total membership in the union
of 1853 men, nearly 156 either lost
their lives or were totally or partially
disabled as a result of their hazard
Gus occupations.
During 1905 only twenty-five iron
workers were killed, about the same
number were so injured that they
could not resume their trade, while
the number of minor injuries totalled
less than eighty.
Secretary O'Brien attributed the
added mortality to the unusually act

he GETS A GREAT OVATION
Travels in an Auto From Ponce to
= San Juan and Big Crowds Along
the Route Cheer Him-Children
Sing america"

San Juan, P. R.-President ROoSe-
welt landed at Ponce and journeyed
in an automobile over the lannon's
military road from Ponce to San
Juan. The people of Porto Rico gave
a great ovation to him. The eighty
mile trip was made in six hours and
thirty minutes, counting the time
taken up by stops. at the principal
towns along the route, where the
President made short speeches to the
people. The President in all his
speeches dwelt on the affection he
entertained for the people of Porto
Rico and assured them that he
would use every effort to obtain citi-
zenship for them = that his efforts
would be ~uneeasing to help them
along the path of true self-govern-
ment.
President Roosevelt arrived at
Ponce from Colon on board the bat
tleship Louisiana. He was greeted
on board the vessel by Governor Win
throp, who extended a welcome to
the island. The President at once
went ashore and was greeted at the
pier by Mayor Oppenheimer at Ponce
and a delegation of prominent Off
Gals and citizens.
The town was p%rofusely decorated
in the Presidents honor and was
crowded with persons from the sur
rounding country eager to greet Mr..
Roosevelt.
At the City Hall an address OF well
come was read TO the President. He
delivered his reply from the balcony
OF the building, addressing the larg-
est crowd thai had ever assembled in
Ponce. The President said in part
Il shal continue to use every eff
fort to ecure citizenship for Porto
Hicans. l am confident that this will
come in the end, and all hat | can
personally do 20 hasten that day /
will do. My efforts will be unceasing
to help you along the path of true
Self-government, which must have for
its basis union, order, liberty, justice
and honor"
In conclusion the President said:
II salute You from my heart as fell
lOw-citiZens."
The reference to the citizenship of
the islanders brought out enthusiast
tic applause from the people.
Before leaving Ponce the PreSi-
dent was driven to the Roosevelt
High School. Here several hundred
school children had been assembled
and sang America" as the President
drove up. The cornerstone of this
school was laid in April, 1903, by the
Presidents daughter. now Mrs.
Longworth. To Mrs. Roosevelt was
presented a beautiful piece of en-
~broidered work, the handiwork of
the girls of the industrial school.
The Presidential party left Ponce
for the run to San Juan over the IA
nous military road. 1t took eleven
automobiles 10 convey the entire
party.

Household Hints.

Hot milk, heated to as high a tenn
perature as it can be drunk, is a
most refreshing stimulant in cases of
cold or over fatigue.
Paprika, by the way, is as orna-
mental as it is useful. Almost any
vegetable with cream OF white sauce
is made doubly attractive when
sprinkled literally with the sweet red
pepper.
White and light gray fur, it is
said, may be beautifully cleaned by
rubbing we'll with equal parts of -four
and fine salt. Shake well, as 1t is
undesirable that any of the mixture
should remain in the fur.
The woman with dull eyes should
never wear diamonds near the face.
Pearls soften the face more than any
other jewels. Amethysts and sap
phires and such highly colored gems
should not be worn with red.
Never wash chamois skins in hot
water. Use cold water and avoid
soap, if possible. The skins clean
very easily, as a matter of fact. This
applies also to chamois skin gloves,
which r so popular in summer.
Clean the bathtubs, stationary
washstands and sinks with kerosene,
as there is no better vanquisher OF
oil, allow it to dry and let the hot
water run until the oil has disap-
peared.
An ingenious woman suggests that
q soft brush, such as is used in var.
nishing, is good for brushing bread
rolls and pastry with melted butter
If a string is put through the handle
and. the brush is hung il a regular
place so much the better.
To keep dress skirts free from
wrinkles If there are no patent hang
ers convenient, they should be fold.
ed in thirds, and a large safety piT
thrust through the folds. The safety
pin, when fastened, is used as &
hanger, and in this way the Skin
I hangs straight, with no strain on am
part of the waistband.
Rice is invaluable for cleaning ca
rates and oil and vinegar cruets. Fol
the oil cruet use warm water and I
little washing soda to remove the oil
Then put in a tablespoonful of rio,
with warm soapsuds, shake vigorous
ly and rinse in clear water. Do no
use the soda in vinegar cruets. Fo,
a water carafe use at least two table
spoonfuls Of rice and several lump
Of aoda.

Matters
stewed Red Cabbage.

Required: A crisp, red cabbage.
half ounce of butter, three-quarter
pint of stock, a gill of vinegar, a
tablespoonful of castor oil, a slice OF
ham. Wash the cabbage thoroughly,
then cut it into very thin slices; put
them in a pan with the ham cut in
small pieces, the butter, quarter pint
of stock and the vinegar. Put the
lid on the pan and let its contents
simmer gently for about one hour.
When the cabbage is quite tender add
the rest of the stock, the vinegar and
the seasoning. Stir all over the fire
till almost all the liquor has boiled
away. Serve it in a hot vegetable
dish.
