In accordance with the principle6
thus established, great ADVANCE has
been made in TIE Improvement of
dwarf milo and in the extension of
the area devoted to it. Breeding has
accomplished the evolution of a
dwarf katir which greatly reduces wa

almost phenomenal yield and much
earlier than the standard sorts. Ap-
pliCation of the principles of breeding

ly extended northward as far as CEN

crop which flowers before the sorg-

destroy the seeds, the grain sorghums
have a'so become a profitable grain
crop for the large dry section OF

Moreover, the grain sorghum crop
enjoys the distinction of being prac-
ticaIly indispensable in the settlement
of the region where it is grown.
Several important additions to the
literature of the subject have been
issued during the past six years

SEWING MACHINE EXPORTS
FROM THE UNITED STATE

Sewing machine exports in the cur
rent fiscal year will make their high
est record and will probably aggre-
cate 10 million dollars. over 100
million dollars worth have been eX-
ported from the United States dur
ing the As years since the official
record of their commercial movement
began, of which sum so million dol
lars worth, or one-half of the total,
were exported in the brief period
since 1900
Figures compiled by the Bureau Of
Statistics, Department of Commerce
end Labor, indicate that sewing ma.
chimes have for many years been an
important factor of the export trade
IN 1864, the earliest year for which
q record is available, the exports
amounted to S1OG2, 7OS; in 1872, So
43G,OS5; in 1882, $2,6i7515; in 1892,
S3,19S,92; in 1902, $fO22,697; and in
1912 will probably show total of
S5O,OOO,OOO.
The growth in exports of American
sewing machines reflects the deyel
cpment of the domestic industry, the
value Of its product having increas d

PROGRESS IN INVESTIGATIONS
Of GRAIN-SORGHUM PLANTS

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 81
Under the direction of Secretary Will
son great progress has been made
during the past few years in the i'm
provement of grain sorghums, which
include different varieties of sweet
sorghum, broom corn, milo, durra,
katir and kowliang. Until recently
grain sorghums had no commercial
status, but the investigational work
conducted by the bureau of plant in
dustry of the department of agricul-
ture during the past six years has
shown their great value as grain and
forage crops. A widespread public
interest in their possibi tiles has
consequently been awakened.
The grain sorghum belt to which
these crops are especially adapted
comprises the central and southern
portions of the great plains, and it is
in this region that these crops
are looked upon as standard by rea-
son of the ease ana the reasonable
certainty of their production, their
general utility for forage, and the
value of the grain for feeding stock
and for human food, surprising both
corn and wheat in these respects.
The census of 1910 reports 100000
acres in grain sorghums with value
of Sl0,750,000. Allowing an average
value of only 81 an acre for the stow
er, the total value of the acreage
shown is $l5,OOO,O0O, placing the grain
sorghums thirteenth in the list of
farm crops, below rice ($l9,OOO,O00)
and above buckwheat (S12O00, 10000.
To this value, however, must be add
ed the value of the large acreage re-
ported by the census under Coarse
forage" but not separated hereunder
from fodder corn. Much of the acre
age thus reported is classed as forage
partly because certain of the crops
so listed are grown as combination
roughage and grain crops and partly
because in much Of the area grain
separators are scarce and but small
PROPORTION of these crops is thrashed.
Among the achievements attribut-
able to the experimental work carried
on by the bureau of plant industry it
is noteworthy that greater emphasis
is now placed upon the Importance OF
drought evasion as distinguished from

100000 in the calendar year 1908 to
nearly $2O,OOOOOO in 1911; while in
the same period those Of France in
creased from $246OO,OOO to $3l, 7OO,-
900; those of the United Kingdom,
from S7,6OO,OOO to S15,5OO 600; those
Of Germany from 100000 to $11,-
100000; and those of Italy, from So
100000 to 100000. Thus in the
brief three-year period from 1908 to
1911 there was an absolute gain Of
about $15OOO,OO0 or 300 per cent in
exports from the United States; Of
$500 600, or ever 100 per cent in
those from the United Kingdom; of
$4,000 1000, or 2GG per cent in those
from Germany; and Of $4,000 or
slightly more than 10 per cent in
those from Italy.
Approximately IS Per cent of the
automobiles exported from the Unit.
ed States are shipped to Canada;
about 40 per cent to Europe, chiefly
Great Britain; about 90 per cent to
British Australia, about per cent
to South America; and smaller pro-
portions to Mexico, the West Indies.
and various countries in Asia, Ocea-
MIA, and Africa During the ten
months ending with April, the latest
period for which figures of distribu-
ton are available in the bureau OF
statistics, 4716 automobiles were ex-
ported to the United Kingdom, 4424
to Canada 3O94 to British Oceania,
1882 to South America, $40 to Asia,
and other Oceania; and 1902 to all
other foreign countries. There were
also shipped, during the same period.
410 automobiles to Hawaii, 342 to
Porto Rico and eleven to Alaska.
OF the automobiles imported into
the United States France supplies
about one-half OF the 845 machines
imported during the ten months end
ing with April, 339 were from France,
10 from the United Kingdom, 115
from Italy, 10S from Germany, and
1l3 from all other countries.
The fall in export price of auto
mobiles is an especially striking feat
ure of the bureau of statistics fig
ures. They show an average valua-
ton for all automobiles exported in
1909 of $500 each and in 1912, of
$3.50, the average export price in 1912
being thus but a little more than
one-half that of 1909 This remark
able fall in the average valuation of
the automobiles exported is due in
part to a general reduction in the sell
ing price of automobiles during the
period in question, disposition on
the part of manufacturers to reduce
the price of the machines to meet
popular demand, but moro especially
to the fact that large numbers o. par
TALLY used or "SeconC hand" ma
chimes, are in recent years being ex-
ported to Canada, Mexico, and the
West Indies, thus reducing the aver
age valuation OF the entire number
exported.
