FEATHERS FROM CHINA.

While the goose and gray duck are
the prevailing favorites in the Chi
nese feather field, Consul General
DENLY, in a report on the supply
and disposition of feathers in the
Chinese empire, says that as a COM
mercial commodity the feathers
figure only in China's export trade.
Pekin ducks furnish feathers from
Tientsin northward in China. Bus
tard, heron, eagle and osprey feath-
ers come principally from the south
of China, being handled at Shang-
hal for export. Germany is the
greatest importer of these feathers,
while the United States took less
than two per cent. during 1906.

Town Improvers.

The citizen who speaks a good word
for his town wherever he goes.
The good looking girl who carries
herself well ON the street
The married woman who brings up
ROoSeveltian flock of five or six to
swell the population.
The merchant who advertises reg
ularly in the home paper and thereby
attracts trade to the town.
The clean swept sidewalk in front of
the well dressed show window.
The folks living next to the railroad
who keep their back yards neat and
thus improve the railroad view.
The farmer who sells his produce in
the town and buys things from the
town stores instead of sending to mail
order houses.
All these are town improvers.
And there are others.
