BIG EXPORTS.

In the year which ended on the last
day of June. 1918, the United States
exported agricultural products to the
value Of over a billion dollars. s1.oc6.-
e62,I29, to he exact. This is the first
time that M agricultural exports
have passed the billion mark. Some
statisticians nave been worrying over
the probability that in the very near
future the United States would not he
producing enough God for Its own
consumption. Possibly that time will
come, but with NJ exports of prod
ucts, most of which are food in one
form or other, increasing year by year,
it seems that the day may be quite
distant when we will have TO look to
others TO feed us. In fact. it is more
tina likely that our production in
proportion to population will increase
rather than diminish for some time.
for unless all the signs are wrong.
We are approaching a period Of in
creased production due, not 10 the
rapid increase of our cultivated acre
age. but to the better tillage Of that
which is already cultivated. Thus far.
while there are now lands in ahuni-
ance to be occupied. it has been easier.
more convenient. and perhaps for the
time being more profitable (thoush
that is not certain) to farm extensive
ly than intensively. Other countries
have done this until other methods
were forced upon them. Other meth
DDS are being forced upon us. And
we Of the present age understand how
and why to farm intensively better
than any who nave preceded us have
understood. The time when that
knowledge will be used is approach
ing. And as it is used our yield per
acre will increase. Two blades of
grass will grow where but one grew
before. Two sheep will pasture where
there were none More of everything
will be produced. and, a generation
hence, our billion dollars worth of ex-
ports may look small.

ABOUT SMOKE.

A New York court has decided
against a city anti-smoke ordinance
on the ground that il is unqualitled
and sweepir.s. that il does not al4o"
for cases when compliance Is lmpos-
sihle, and that the use of and
boilers. and the consequent emission
OF smoke, is doubtless necessary to the
enjoyment If the ownership of practi-
cally every building within the city
of New York.
From this decision the New York
Times dissents most emphatlcaily. on
the ground that the court has failed
to take accoun of the fact. which the
Times says is perfectly we'll established
that any kind of coal car be CONSUME
ed without the production OF the sort
os smoke that is a nuisance and a dan
ger. The Times says: "Nisihle smoke
is the induhitahle sig of Imperfect
combustion. and by proper firing with
proper facilities it can be entil ely done
away with
We are not familiar with the. terms
OF lIe New ! w ~ l
ably it is intended to apply to such
heating plants as are in use in large
buildings. II seems to be pretty gem
orally understood that the prevention
of most O fthe dense smoke which
commonly ascends from tall chimneys
Is quite possible by the installation
of the proper equipment for firing:
that the installation OF this equipment
will not entail unreasonable expense
on the owner of any moderately large
building; end that in the end it will
even be an for him to do so,
and to burn all his Goa instead of
sending a good part of it up the CHM
ney to decorate the landscape.
But. if the sweeping statement of
the Times has reference to fuel-con-
buildings as we'll as in large ones. we
beg to differ. The emission of more
pr less black smoke from chinlneys
IS a necessary adjunct of fuel con
sumption in small buildings of mod
crate cost, The man With an eight
room house. for instance. cannot af-
ford to equip his four hundred dollar
furnace with a smoke It
could he done but it would involve a
cost which would make il prohihitive.
And 1T MAJ he that the court had in
mind the application of the New York
ordinance TO cases of this general char
acter. in which case the ordinance
would be clearly unreasonable, and.
being unreasonable, would be con-
trary to the spirit of any sanely de-
vised constitution.

An eastern man in making mis- will
made q REQUEST of a considerable sum
to a young who had served
him faithfully as secretary. prescrib-
ing as a condition that the legacy
should he for her use So long as she
remained unmarried. Later. and on
his deathhed. he thought better of il.
and added a codicil to the will re-
l!eving the lady of this condition. and.
being i'll no condition to deal in in
volved legal phrases. he wrote that
the hequest was to he hers "without
any string to it," We see no reason
why the lhraseolosy should not be
considered adequate. The testator
made plain what he wanted, which
we understand I be the essence of
good will-naking. But in addition
to this. he is to he commended on the
fact that he determined TO abandon
the efor to regulate the life of an
other human being after he had de-
parted hence. Not all persons are as
wise. Too many seek to reach out the
dead hand and with il to guide the
destinies OF tho living. Such efforts
seldom result in good.
