~ OUTH AMERICA is being rapid
ly Americanized Dating from
the Pan-American conference at
~ Buenos Ayres a new era Is
opening In relation to the two
great continents of the western hemi-
sphere. Definite plans have been
agreed upon to bring both shores of
South America in direct, continuous
communication with the United States.
Through an international agreement it
Is purposed to link together the great
ports In regular system of commu-
nication. forming an unbroken chain
for commercial interchange from Port
and, Me, southwark around Cape Horn
and northward to Seattle To create
this new trade all governments con-
cerned are to work in harmony, direct
banking and able service will be es-
tablshed, and common system Of
weights and measures adopted to avoid
all loss of time In handling freight,
mail and passengers.
In this conference the United States
has naturally been predominating

found along both coasts of the south
ern continent is absolutely without
precedent in that part of the world.
One of the most important func
tons of the Pan-American conference
was TO arrange the international cele
bration of the opening of the Panams
canal. Very wisely the conference de
voted it's best efforts to the effects OF
the canal upon our trade routes ane
giving them direction. Every one OF
the South American republics will In
evitably be brought closer to the Pa
cifc and Atlantic markets of the
United States. In some cases the routes
may be shortened by several thousand
miles. The Pan-American congress
predicts for these nations an increase
in their per capital purchasing ane
buying, especially of more than double
what 1t is today.

HOT AIR INSTEAD OF STOVE
Use Of Superheated Air for Cooking
by Foreign Cooks Is Attracting
Much Attention.

Hot air" is to be turned to good
end, according to the foreign cooks,
and at the same time a great waste
in fuel in the preparation Of meals is
to be eliminated. The use of super
heated air for cooking purposes is at
tracing considerable attention from
the domestic economists The proc
ess is said to be done quite simple
as simple as the "fireless cooker" in
TACT. The steam from an ordinary
kitchen boiler is conveyed by pipes to
the "superheater," where. by means of
a series of coils above a coke fire,
its temperature is raised to 1000 de-
grees The pressure is not increased,
which eliminates danger of bursting
the pipes. Hollow rods surround and
lie underneath the boiler, and through
these rods the superheated air is per-
mitted to rush. quickly making the
griller as hot as desired.
The enthusiast predicts an early
departure of the blazing coal, coke, or
gas fire IN the kitchen. VIII On any
special dish is to be cooked it is to
be placed on a certain part of the grill
er, fed by a certain pipe from the
superheated air reservoir. A valve
Is turned to let just the proper amount
Of heat under the griller, and the work
Is done without The fumes, without
the waste of any heat, and without the
loss of any good nature The air,
after being used to broil your beef
steak, can be turned into the heating
radiators and used to keep the dining
room warm.
