IAN Evening in Japan"

Saturday evening of last week a
number of friends were entertained
by Messrs. Groome, Banks and Tap
pan in their quarters in Sterry Hall.
The guests had been invited to spend
IAN Evening in Japan" and arrived
costumed in gayly-colored kimonas
to find on being ushered into the re-
ception room that they were as If
by the genii of old transferred bod
lily into a typical house of the Lotus
Land.
The subdued light, the strange
notices in Japaneses, the haunting
odor Of incense, the quaint little
kimona-clad figures seated on mats
and gracefully slipping their tea, all
lent an indescribable air of charm
to the affair. The tea and cake had
been sent from Toxic by a friend of
one of the hosts especially for the
occasion. During the evening sever
al other oriental dishes were served
and a decided novelty in the way of
games introduced.
The prize was a dainty tea pot of
Royal Satsuma and the lucky victor
proved to be Miss Lanzendorf, of
Rife, Colo.
The guests were DR.. and Mrs.
Boone, the Misses Boone, olmstead,
Bertha Cupp, Brooks, Glenn, Cum
mings and Mr.. Trowbridge.

Pocatello, Idaho, May S1.-That
the good roads movement has struck
Pocatello, where the second annual
convention of the Inter-Mountain
Good Roads association will be held
on June 1924, 1911, was indicated
the other day when former Governor
Brady returned from an eastern trip
and put his name down for $500
donation to fund of $4,000 to be
raised to turnpike ten miles of road
across the Fort Hall irrigated tract
to Ross Fork, to connect with the
six miles of sand road from Ross
Fork to Blackfoot, which will be
macadamized this summer at an ex-
pense to the state of Idaho of
$4,000. s. M. Nixon, a home
steader on the tract, added his name
to that of Governor Brady with
$3.50 subscription. Every automo-
bile owner in this city, and every
merchant and business man respond
ed literally. For years Pocatello
has been on the route of the main
line automobile highway to the
Yellowstone park and to the north
western summer resorts. The fam
Gus six miles of sand road between
Ross Fork and Blackfoot has been
a terror to motorists. 1t is on the
blacklist of every automobile guide
book in America. Largely through
efforts of the Inter-Mountain Good
Roads association, the present ex-
ecutive officers of which are Presi-
dent e. r. Sherman of Bull, Idaho,
and Secretary William Wallin of
Pocatello, the last legislature was
induced to appropriate $4,000 to
macadamize the Ross Fork road.
Work will be in progress during
the June convention. To complete
the chain of good roads across the
Fort Hall coded tract and the Fort
Hall Indian reservation, 1t was de-
cided to turnpike the pole line road
which runs straight from the Gate
City to Ross Fork along the trans
mission line of the Idaho Consoli-
dated Power company. Work will be
rushed to earliest possible compile
ton in order to prepare for the an
nual tours of auto parties. which
pass through Pocatello.

EXPECTATIONS
ARE GROWING
Musical Instruments in the Foreign
Trade Of the United States.

Musical instruments to the value
of over 70 million dollars have pass
ed through the ports of the United
States during the last 20 years, of
which value 25 million dollars rep
resented imports and AZ million, ex-
ports. Imports during the 20-year
period show decline, the value for
1910 being about 20 per cent less
than in 1890; while exports show
marked increase, the figures for
1910 being nearly three times as
great as those 20 years earlier. This
statement epitomizes the results of
a compilation regarding imports and
exports of musical instruments re-
Gently made by the Bureau of Sta
tistics, Department of Commerce and
Labor.
Twenty years ago our foreign
trade in musical instruments was
characterized by a large excess of
imports over exports; at present ex-
ports largely exceed imports. The
total importation of musical in
struments in the fiscal year 1890
was ,$1,7O3,129, against exports of
$1,105,134, the excess of imports
being thus over 100000. BY 1900
imports had decreased to $1,000
541, while exports had risen to ST.
95S,779, making an excess of ex-
ports over imports of nearly $780,
900. By 1910 imports had in
creased to $1,347,862, while exports
had advanced in even greater pro-
portion to $3,1S2,343, the excess Of
exports being thus nearly $4,000
900. The 10 months ending with
April, 1911, for which figures are
available show imports of musical
instruments valued at $1,348,545
and exports of like character valued
at $2,S23,471, indicating that the
complete fiscal year which ends with
next month will record a total of
$1,600,000 on the import side and of
$3,3OO,000 on the export side, an
excess of exports Of $1,700,000. If
this estimate should be actually
realized it would still leave the i'm
ports of musical instruments $780,
900 less than the figures of 1890,
while the exports under that head
would be 100000 above the total
of 20 years ago and $1,4OO, 900
above that of 1900.
Pianos, organs, and piano players
are the only classes of musical in
struments separately enumerated in
the export records of the Bureau of
Statistics. OF these, exports of
pianos are increasing, those of or
gans are decreasing, and those of
piano-players are barely holding
their own. In 1890 the domestic
exports of pianos amounted to
$213,369; in 1900, $S55,665; In
1905, $513,725, and in 1910, ST.,
163,467; while a record of $1,O66,-
S37 already made by the 10 months
ending with April, 1911, indicates
that the total for the year will be
about $1,SOO,OOO. Exports of or
gans, on the other hand, while ad-
vancing from $75O,5S3 in 1890 to
$9s3,3O9 in 1900, have since de-
clined to $721,913 in 1910, while
the figures for the 10 months of
1911, $534,141, are considerably
below those for the like period of
1910, suggesting that the total for
the fiscal year 1911 will be but lit

FORT
BOOSTS IDAHO
Omaha, Neb., May 27th, 1911

Tribune,
Caldwell, Idaho.
Gentlemen:-Id is rapidly peo-
ping her vacant lands.
Thousands of men and women
who are flocking to this land were
brought through the influence of the
Union Pacifio's advertising. This
year we intend, even more than last,
to add to this influx and we want
your help.
When the doors of the land shows
in Chicago and Omaha are opened
this year, the largest section of floor
space allotted to any exhibitor will
be in possession Of the Union Pa
cific company. This was the case
last year. Now it is up to US to
better the exhibits and lectures in
order that Idaho may receive her
full share of all benefits of these
great exhibitions. You and / know
the wonderful possibilities of the
state, and we men of the Union Pa
cific need your help, just as you
need ours, to tell of the great OPP
portunities for prosperity in Idaho.
More people in your city means more
business for you and the merchants
who advertise.
Increased population means that
more money will be spent in your
state and the increase will be felt
not only by you but by every man,
woman and child in the state. For
that reason it behooves all of us to
do all in our power to boost.
Will you do your part toward
arousing community spirit among
your people in order that they may
get together with the Commercial
Club Of your city, gather an exhib-
it and arrange for space at these big
land shows?
Let the secretary of your CONNER
cial club, yourself or some other
man who is familiar with the pos
sibilities, both latent and active, o
Idaho, to go to the land shows WIN
pictures for stereopticon or moving
pictures, Eve will have the moving
picture machines and operators, or
both), to tell the tens of thousands
Of people what is awaiting them in
Idaho.
You will be surprised at the re-
suits of work of this kind. The in
quiries will bring returns far beyond
the outlay and amount of time re-
quired.
We will spend a good portion of
our advertising appropriation in
telling the public what they can
find out about Idaho in the big land
shows.
1t takes publicity to boost this
along. Help us with that and we
will help you by transporting Ida
hos exhibits free of charge, and by
providing lecture halls wherein Ida
hos men may set forth the facts
about their state.
Should your county not care to
rent space at these land shows, there
is no need of staying away, as the
lecture halls rented and paid for bv
the Union Pacific company will be
open freely to you, and much good
may be done with lectures and pic
lures, without the exhibits OF the
crops.
With personal regards, I am

BUILDING ROADS
With STATE FUNDS

Pocatello, Idaho, May 31.-John
P. Congdon, engineer for the Ross
Fork road commission, which this
summer will expend 100000 of
state money In matchmaking six
miles of the famous sand road across
the Fort Hall Indian reservation,
which is on the main automobile
highway to the northwest, has COM
pleted the preparation of a map
of the route for filing with the de-
partment of the interior. Formal
permission from the government to
traverse the reservation has been re-
ceived, and work will start at an
early date and be in progress dur
ing the annual convention in this
city of the Inter-Mountain Good
Roads association, which will be at
tended by over a thousand dele
gates from the six states of Idaho,
Utah, Montana, Colorado and Wyo-
ming. The delegates will be driven
over a ten-mile $4,000 turnpike to
the sand road and given a practical
demonstration of modern road build
ing. A feature of the Pocatello con-
vention will be an exhibit of road
making machinery of every descrip-
ton, over a score of factories hav"
ing arranged for space.

tie over 100000, or 20 per cent
below the figures of 1890. OF piano
players the export record began with
the fiscal year 1904, the total for
that year, $S89,951, being the
largest yet shown. In 1905 the
total was $S42,S17; in 1907, $685.
1853; in 1909. $46S,15S; and in
1910, $7S9,265; while the 10
months total to April 80, 1911,
$635,9SS is sufficiently in advance Of
the corresponding 1910 figures to
justify an estimate of 100000 for
the complete fiscal year which ends
with next month.
All the grand divisions and prac-
tically all the civilized communi-
ties are represented In the list Of
countries to which pianos, organs
and other musical instruments Of
American manufacture are exported.
OF the 1896 pianos exported last
year, 1890, or one-third of the
total export, went to Canada, S3S
to Englend, 480 to Mexico, sos to
Australia, 800 to Cuba, 293 to Ar
gentina, 1877 to Germany, &c to
Italy, and 81 to France. OF the
$3.50 American-made organs ex-
ported in 1910, 1927, or one-third
of the total export, went to Eng
land, 1902 to Australia, 500 to
Netherlands, 791 to British Africa,
GA to Germany, 327 to Scotland,
322 to Canada, 189 to the British
West Indies, 1876 to New Zealand,
$50 to Mexico, 1872 to the Chinese
Empire, 1913 to Norway, and 100 to
Denmark. OF the 2,735 piano-play-
ers exported last year, England is
credited with 1,407, or more than
one-half of the entire number, COM
pared with asa exported to Ger
many, 242 to Australia. 169 to Can
ada, 1875 to Argentina, and 121 to
Brazil. In addition to the exports
above enumerated, shipments of
greater or less Importance were
made to many remote sections OF
the world, such as the Philippine
Islands, Korea, British India. Ecu
audor, Siam, Liberia, Hongkong, and
the islands of the sea.
Most of the musical instruments
imported into the United States came
from Germany. OF the total impor-
tations in 1910, valued at $1,S47,-
S62, Germany is credited with $780,
955, against $224,795 from France
$99,345 from Austria-Hungary, $685.
TIA from England, and $17,54C
from Italy. The imports from nc
other country being so much az
$4,000. The various kinds Of
musical instruments imported can
not be stated, as they are not sep
arately enumerated in the returns
made by the Collectors of Customs
to the Bureau of Statistics.
The 100000 worth of musical
instruments annually exported rep.
resents but a very small part Of
the domestic product, since the Cen.
sus Office reports a total produc
ton in 1905 of 69b million dollars
That the industry is a growing one
may be inferred from its record Of
progress. Taking the results al
shown by thef Censuses of 1880
1890, 1900, and 1905, the number
of establishments was, respectively
429, 674, 619, and 625; the capita
invested, 14h million, 20 2-S mil
lion, 47% million, and 72A million
dollars; and the value of products
19A million dollars in 1880, 81
million in 1890, 441s million IL
1900, and 691s million in 1905.
