Gould Double Wheat Yield.

1T Is desirable that We should not
only feed our own people but maintain
those declining exports OF food animals
and other food products by which we
have to so considerable an extent paid
our debts in the past.
In the last five years our exports OF
meat and dairy products fell from SILL
900 900 to about Si5O.O 900 900: and of cat
tie. sheep and hogs from Si3, 500 900 to
about $l3 900 600. This illustrates the
swift decline in all our exports OF food
products. trade change so sudden and
so tremendous that the country may we'll
take alarm.
Unless we change our industry. VIC
far as food " concerned This sounds
a abSurd in view of our immense cXpanse
Of fertile land. our relatively scanty pop
ulation and the part we have played In
figures prove il. Our foreign trade in
cereals tells the same story as that in
meat products Between the five years
ending with 1904 and the five ending with
1903 the decrease OF our wheat exports
was over 40 per cont. In round num-
bcrs our exports of food stuffs In crude
condition and food animals were $l06.-
600 900 for the eleven months ending
Nav 81 of this year. Sl32, 900 900 for the
same period in 1909. and S1Sl 600 900 in
wholly manufactured for the same three
eleven month periods were $40. O00. 600
S9Sl 900 600 and 1910 600 900. The wheat
exports were 46. 6.000.0oO bushels. 90. 900
-four exports. $500 900 barrels, 10, ,0oO. .oOO
barrels and - 900. 900 barrels. The force
Of these figures cannot be evadcd or mis-
understood.
Food consumption in The United States
is increasing more rapidly than food pro
duction. That is the explanation of the
falling Off in exports of all forms Of food
products

COPENHAGEN. July e.
The Politiken relates an amusing story
of how the fashion for small hats has
been established in a little town on the
coast OF East Jutland.
Some time ago the proprietor of first-
class millinery establishment observed
with alarm that his customers were
abandoning him In order to patronize a
newly opened shop which toasted women S
hats considerably larger than he had ever
kept La stock
IL was useless for him to advertise his
lesser creations az being more up to date.
and soon all the fashionable women could
be seen wearing the gigantic headgear
from the firm across the way.
At last he hit on an Ingenious method
OF winning back his waning reputation.
Through a friend he purchased two dozen
of the largest hats in the rival shop. and
made present OF them TO number of
market women.
These were all highly delighted with the
gift. and the consequence was that In a
few days every woman who aimed at be-
