DEPARTMENT TELLS OF
 IMPORTS AND EXPORTS
Report Of Commerce and Labor Branch of Government Oiscloses
 Some Interesting Facts.

The agricultural interests of foreign countries buy nearly s10O.000.0o0 worth nf American manufactures and other uroducts for use in cultivat.ng the soil. while about $5O.000.O90 worth of foreign products are annually import eG into the United States for use upon farms. The foregoing Summar- izes certain information recently com piled by the Bureau of Statistics, De- partment of Commerce and Labor. in response to an inquiry upon that subject received from a representative newspaper located in the great farm ing area of the middle west. and re fcrs more especially to those classes e. merchandise having their chief, if not exclusive use in the farming industry and does not include articles ir general use, such as clothing, fur niture. and miscellaneous manufac- lures.
 Of the exports from the United States of articles required in farming, by far the larger portion are com- posed of manufactures. such as agri- cultural implements, binding twine. barbed wire. and oil cake: while phosphate rock. to be ground up and used as fertilizer. and clover, timothy and other grass seeds are among the articles exported in the natural state. Tn addition to the exports above enumerated as specifically for farm use. there are certain articles for which the agriculturalists of other countries draw upon the United States but which cannot be classed as dis tinctively for farm purposes, such as wagons, carriages, traction engines, fiber bags. pumps. etc. In such cases the Bureau of Statistics has no means of determining the proportion of the exports intended for farm use and they are rot therefore included in the $1 .000. 900 worth of merchandise exported for agricultural purposes.
 Taking up the principal exports of the class under discussion. agricul- tural implements head the list. with z. probable total of $40.000, 900 in the year about to end. comprised of near ly 0,000 900 worth of mowers and reapers. sS.000, 900 worth of blows and cultivators, g.. .500,0 ,000 worth of thresh- CTS. and the remainder miscellaneous farming tools and implements. These agricultural implements are exported to practically all parts of the world where man has adopted modern meth

ods Of cultivating the soil: In the great wheat fields of Russia, in the vineyards of France. on the coffee plantations of Brazil, in the rice fields Of China and Japan, and in all the rapidly developing countries of the new world. including Canada, Argen- tina. Cuba. and Mexico. The years exports will range from nearly sS.- 000,00 to European Russia, s6,000, ,0O0 tC Arger tina. and about S5.O00.000 to Canada, to about Sl.500.000 to Africa, while to British Australasia and Oceania will be sent a total of nearly $1. .00O,0 ,000. to other Oceania and Asia about S1,000.000. and Brazil about $500. 900 worth. Even the great man. u1acturing countries of Europe. the United Kingdom, Germany. and France. are represented in the years exports of agricultural implements, the. United Kingdom with a total of over $1.000. 900. Germany s2.0O0,000. and France $3.OO0.O0O.
 Fertilizers, of which the exports will be about SIP 100000 during the year. are chiefly sent to European cOun- tries. where ng-continued use of the soils has largely denleted their ma tural fertility and rendered artificial fertilizers necessity. For American phosphate rock and other fertilizers of that class Germany is the largest market, followed next by Neither lands and the United Kingdom An other class of materials, used as cat tie food. whose exports are consider able includes oil cake and oil cake meal made from cottonseed and lin- seed. Of these the exports amount l. about s15.000.000 per annum, being exported 10 various countries of Eu . rope.
 Binding twine is another article Of importance in wheat-growing cOun- tries Of that article the years ex- ICrts will be about sS.0OO.000. prac- tically all destined for Russia and ether European countries, Canada, and Argentina. American barbed wire ex- ported about s5.000,0O0 per annum, gees chiefly to Canada. Australia. Ar gentina, British Africa, Mexico. Brazil, and Cuba. In addition to these arti- cles. there are others largely if not exclusively required by farmers. such as windmills, with exports nearly g. 0G0,O00 per annum; and clover and other grass seeds.-over $1.O00,O00.
 On the other hand, American far mers draw upon other countries for certain of their requirements, most of the imports, however, being articles in their natural state. The largest item shown in the imports of last year were fertilizers, including nitrate of soda. s17.000,000: gIano. manure. salts. etc. $l0.000.00O potash salts. SS,000.00 sulphate of ammonia, used in part as a substitute for manure and in part in the manufacture of alum. 5000. .0O0: animals for breeding purposes. chiefly horses. nearly s.. 100000; clover seed. s3.000,00O: and sugar beet seed, $750.000

BILLIARD EXPERTS
 COMING TOMORROW
DEMAREST AND SHAEFER WILL
 PLAY HERE.
Game Will Start at 8 p. m. in the
 O'Neill Hall.

Lovers of billiards in Phoenix will have the first chance to see first class billiards in many d long year tomorrow night when Calvin De marest and Jake Schaefer Jr. will meet at O'Nein Hall in match game. Both players are known to everyone who has ever read a sport page and there is hardly d man to be found who is not interested in their visit here.
 Demarest has just returned from a tour of all Europe where he met and defeated all the great players of that continent. In Paris he played what is called short billiard games of 200 points. He ran the game out eight different times and made so many friends by his great playing that he will return there in the spring to fill engagements.
 Jake Schaefer Jr. is about the best advertised billiardist in the world today and his great playing has brought him in the limelight of the sporting world. It has never known young man before who has had such a fast rise in the game. It is only two years since he began play ing the game and in that time he has improved so fast that many of the great expert judges of the game claim he will be the champion of the world in two years. This news will he received as good news to all the old timers that knew his father. the great Jake of yesterday and the best liked man the game has ever known. Jake Jr has all that his father had and what is more he has a good head. The boy is only F years of age but he has the stroke that made the name of Schaefer a byword from one end of the world to the other Last summer he played young Cation and in this game he made run of 556 at 1S2. This is a worlds record but does not stand as it was not made in championship contest.
 The billiard hall owners have made the boys big offer to stop off here and play in order to do the game some good and a large crowd is eX- pected tn attend. The game will start at o'clock sharp and will cons:o- ce 4C0 ;,nts of balk Inc. l5 po'n.s of . cushion and fancy shots.
