colored youth answers and asks
whether you have letters Of intro
duction. Have L. you say inwardly
as your chest swells. and you pass
over the letters asking for the use Of
one of the seats in parliament placed
at the disposal of our embassy. The
youth ushers you into reading room.
Filled with the American feeling
of satisfaction you note your sur
roundings but keep your eyes mostly
on the door where the higher up
summoned by the boy will enter.
Your mind pictures brisk, whole

American secretary who will hear
what you have to say and then tell
you whether your request can be
granted. A cordial American? Wow!
when I was there, through the

man. With stiff neck and tilted nose
he stopped just inside the door with
a pose reflecting fear that he ex-
pected a most disagreeable experience.

CRUDE TIN RETURNS
IN SHAPE OF CANS

Washington.-A curious instance OF
merce is given in the report of an
American consul stationed in the Ma
lay peninsula.
The Malay peninsula. he states,
produces about 65 per cent of the
worlds output of tin. The total pro-
duction IS valued at some s41.OOO,0O0.
The United States consumes one
fourth of this. Now nearly one-half
of the total exports of the country to
the Malay peninsula are contained
in tin cans. the same tin sent from
them in the crude form. A great
part of this export is in one gallon
tin buckets containing petroleum.
After the contents of these cans have
been used, the natives convert them
into every conceivable household
utensil. The interior of any Malay
or Chinese home in the peninsula.
says the consul is filled with American
tin cans of every size and shape. Holes
are punched in them for sieves, they
are fashioned into dust pans, baking
and cooking utensils and water buck
cts.
Indeed the demand has become so
great that it is branching into an in
dustry and many men are employed
in making household utensils out of
second hand American tin cans, the
tin for which was mined at their
very feet.

PACIFIC GROUP OF APPLE GROWERS WILL
HAVE LARGEST CROP EVER HARVESTED

largest producing group. shows in
creases in Ohio, Delaware and New
Jersey over last year; Pennsylvania
Michigan and Wisconsin show con-
siderable decline. with the increases
not being sufficient to offset the
shortage, and this group shows a de-
cline from last year OF TO 10 per
cent.
''The New England group shows an
increase in the entire section, except
the unimportant state Of Rhode Is
land, and for the whole group the
entire crop this year promises to be
above 40 per cent in excess of last
year.
I'm the southern group, the i'm
portant state of Virginia shows a de-
cided increase over last year, with
considerable increase in West Virgin
la and Kentucky, Maryland alone
showing a decrease in this group. This
group shows an increase or fully so
per cent over a year ago.
Canada, not including the prov
ince Of Nova Scotia, shows a decline
OF 80 per cent over a year ago, early
varieties promising relatively better
than winter varieties. The Nova
Scotia district promised a good crop
until recently, but very heavy drop
followed shortly after setting time,
and present prosects are for a light
crop, poor quality and not to exceed
40 per cent Of year ago in quantity"
IF present prospects are maintain
ed until harvest time our country will
have a good outlet at moderate prices

Spokane, Wash.-Applegrower in
the Pacific or box group, taking
Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Mon
tana, California, New Mexico Utah
and Colorado, will this year have the
largest crop ever harvested in these
states and the fruit promises to be
OF exceptionally good quality accord
ing to a report on the condition OF
the yield in the United States and
Canada, received by w. D. Finley, as
sistant secretary in Spokane Of the
fifth Dry Farming Congress, from C.
p. Rothwell, secretary Of the Inter-
national Apple Shippers association.
The report says In part:
The Pacific group shows decline
In but one important state-Colorado
There are heavy increases in Wash
fngton and Oregon, and heavy increas-
es in the less important states Of Ida
no and Utah. The important state OF
California shows a moderate increase
OF Is per cent. and for the whole
group an increase of so per cent over
year ago Is promised"
The output OF Washington and Ida
no will be 90 per cent better than in
1909, Mr.. Rothwell says, while Ore
CONS crop will be 175 per cent ahead
OF last year. Montana and New Mex
leo are 10 per cent under a year ago.
Utah, 100 per cent better: California.
Is per cent increase. and Colorado,
30 per cent less than in 1909.
I'm accordance with the practice OF
our association for several years" Mr..
Rothwell explains. I'VE make last
years crop in each state the basis for
this years estimate. increasing or d.
minishing the percentage as the crop
is correspondingly lighter or heavier.
For Illustration: II a given state is
rated at so per cent, II means the crop
this year is equal to four-ffths OF the
crop Of year ago, or II given at 200
per cent. the crop in such state is Just
twice as large as a year ago.
Appended is the crop estimate, with
