FLOUR is IMPORTANT

Considerable Capital Invested in

Flour making in France is the most
important industry in the country in

annual output The political influence
Of the industry is not only powerful.
but it is sufficiently concentrated by
effective organization to be watchful of
whatever pertains to flour milling and
the making of such laws as will sup
uct of the soil is wheat. The chief
food of the people is bread. To meet
their requirement In this respect more
wheat is needed per capita than in any
other European country, save Bel lgium.
Ordinarily, France produces wheat
enough to feed her people and to en-
ter into the export flour trade as well.
The annual per capita food consump-
tion figures slightly less than seven
and a half bushels of wheat
Under existing laws there is no pos
sibility of flour from the United States
or from any other country entering
France for consumption in the country.
except in the event of a serious crop
shortage. Only two years of INSULT
cient home supplies have occurred in
the last 90 years, once in 1891 and
again 1898. Then the conditions were
met, as they would be again under like
circumstances, by relaxing the pro-
-tective laws sufficiently to meet the
need for the importation of foreign
wheat The millers Of France, not
those Of any other country, would then
profit by such relaxation, for it is not
at all likely that flour would be
granted any concession from the pro-
hibitive tariff now in force.

WOMEN AS AER0NAUTS
OVERTAKEN BY DISASTER
Crown Carried for Emperor's
Coronation Is Smashed

Women aeronauts are not only of

which gives an entertaining an in

ballooning among women. The first
woman of note was Nine Nadar, who
lost her life with her husband by be-
ing cast from a balloon at Nieubourg.
Hanover. Next we find Nine Sage

party set out with the intention of

descended very near their objective.

Nine. Blanchard was the star un-

aeronautics at the coronation fetes in
consequence Of Garnerin having in
CURED the displeasure of the emperor.
The aeronaut ascended at Milan with
a balloon carrying an imperial crown.
Inc air currents carried him out of
his course, and the next day, in making
ms descent, he broke the crown on the
tomb of Nero.
Nine. Blanchard during her career
achieved some note. At the marriage

on many abstruse points connected
with the divine revelation. He passed
a strlkingly brilliant examination and
thus becomes the first doctor of holy
scripture in the United States.
There is in preparation, soon to is
sue from the University Press of Notre
Dame, a volume on botany which rep
resents great deal of research and
erudition. 1t is the work of Rev.
Dr. James Nieuwland. c. S. c., head of
the botanical department of Notre
Dame. 1t is classified list and full
description of all the plants of the val
ley OF the st. Joseph river and vicin-
lty, including other parts of northern
Indiana and southern Michigan.
What makes the book particularly
valuable, aside from its comprehensive
classification and detailed description of
the hora of this region, is the nomen-
clature, which embraces all the names
IN use in antiquity by such botanists
as Galen, Hippocrates and Theophannus
reaching back to 300 B. c., and the
changes made in these terms under all
succeeding scientists, especially by
Linnaeus.

Protestants of England"

W. B. Dassonville who has recently
moved into his newly completed studio
In Post street, has most charmingly
appointed quarters and is doing some
fine work. The walls and ceilings of
each of the three rooms were tinted
and finished after the artist-photog-

lightfully harmonious and restful COM
bination of colors, accessories and fur
nishings, which make this studio
unique. Beauty in some guise greets
the eye on every side. The few prints
on the walls are chosen with view
to their proper placing and coloring,
and altogether this artistic and de-
lightful interior is a place fitted to
contain the unusual Photographic work
exhibited. Dassonville has recently
tried printing landscape views on a
certain brand of Japanese paper, very
thin, almost transparent, and pro-
