There is no direct mixture of the
blood of the mother and that of the
developing embryo. All the processes
contributing to it's growth and main
tenance, including those of respira-
ton and excretion, take place through
intermediate structures. This is an
extremely wise provision of nature,
whereby much of an injurious char
acter in the blood of the mother is
barred from reaching the embryonic
tissues. Undoubtedly, the cells which
form the organs of nutrition for the
embryo have a capacity for selecting
the elements required for the purpose
of nutrition not influenced by the ex-
igencies of commerce
We're it not for this intermediary
process, the embryo rarely would es-
cape being poisoned or otherwise in
products and substances which the
ignorance of some mothers allows to
be present in their blood during this
important period. Even with this
means of protection. the maternal
blood may be so utterly deficient in
nutritive qualities that the fluids
which reach the embryonic cells may
be very much impaired in quality.
All the tissues, including the bones,
are dependent during the intrauterine
life on the supply of nutrient material
derived from the maternal blood Our
tissues require proteids, fats, carbo-
hydrates, salts, water and oxygen
from the inspired air. If the blood OF
the mother is deficient in these ele-
ments the growth and development
of the embryonic bones will be re
tarded and the imperfect1ons thus be-
gun will be continued in infants
whose blood is not restored to nor.
NAL state after birth.

Washington, March 27.--(SpeciaD.-
According to a monograph just issued
by the department of commerce, the
exports of the United States illus
trate very sharply the changing char
acter of our commerce and of the &C.
equations of our people. Agricultural
products, which formed, in 1880, S4.3
per cent. of the total domestic ex-
ports, were, in 1918, 46.1 per cent. of
the total Manufactures, exclusive Of
foodstuffs, which were, in 1880, 14.7S
per cent. of the exports, were, in 1913
ass per cent. The actual figures are:
Exports of agricultural products, in
1880, 694.3 million dollars and, in 1913,
1,121.3 million; exports of manufac-
lures, in 1880, 1918 million dollars and,
in 1913, 1,1S5,1 million, the increase in
agricultural products being AT million
dollars, and that in exports of manu-
features considerably imore than l
billion dollars.
This transition Of the United States
from an exporter of natural products
to an exporter of manufactures has
been a steady movement during the
last third of a century. Crude food
stuffs which formed, in 1880, 1928 per
cent. of the exports, gradually dim
inished in their proportion, and were,
in 1912, but as per cent. of the total.
In 1918, however, their percentage was
slightly larger, 7.49 per cent, due to
a large wheat crop and unusually
heavy exports of that article. Food
stuffs partly or wholly manufactured
show a less rapid decline, especially
during the period from 1900 to 1900,

raising the steering ailerons to their
full capacity, and the aeroplane turn
ed its nose into the air at what seemed
to be an impossible flying angle In
other types this manoeuvre would
have begun to drop backward tail-first.
The Burgess Dunno, however, kept on
going, though at greatly reduced
speed, and after sufficient interval
to prove that stalling would not oc-
cur, Mr. Webster easily brought the
aeroplane back on an even keel.
Mr. Webster followed his first dem
onstration with three short sharp cir
Giles, during the course of which he
stood the machine on its side at an
angle of approximately rs degrees, and
finished with a splendid yolplane.
In a second fight, made for the pur-
pose of ascertaining the weight-car-
rying properties of the biplane, a to-
tai load of 55S pounds was taken on
board, including besides the pilot,
passenger, Mr.. Greedy s. Curtiss of the
Burgess Company. This weight the
machine had no difficulty in raising,
and it descended and remained in the
air for Is minutes, indicating that the
Dunno is much more efficient than had
been generally believed. 1t had been
thought that the downward turned
wing-tips would greatly decrease the
lift of the craft. The weight carried

The Changing Character of
Exports from the United States.

when there was but little change, the
average share which they formed of
the total exports being about % per
cent. In the early part of the pres
ent century, however, the sudden de-
cline in the available supply of meats
for expectation reduced rapidly the
share which this group. foodstuffs
wholly or partly manufactured, form
ed of the total, this share having
fallen from 24.26 per cent in 1902 to
1928 per cent. in 1918. The share
which crude materials form of the to-
tai exports has remained practically
stationary. having been in 1886, 2S.9S
per cent. and in 1913, 301 per cent. In
both manufactures for further use
in manufacturing and manufactures
ready for consumption, the advance
has been continuous, both in total
value and in the percentage which
the respective groups form of the total
exports. The share which manufac-
lures for further use In manufactur-
ing form of the grand total of domes-
tic exports was. in 1880. 1852 per cent.
and in 1918, 1888 per cent; and that
of finished manufactures was, in 1880,
.26 per cent. and in 1918, S1.97 per
cent.
The monograph, which is entitled
Annual Review of the Foreign Com
merce of the United States, 1913" is
discussion of the notable features
of our import and export trade in the
fiscal year 1913 in comparison with
the trade of earlier years. Copies may

While flying at height of 800 feet
Wednesday morning at Marblehead
in the Burgess-Dunne biplane, Aviator
Clifford l.. Webster stopped his engine
and took his hands from the control
levers. The machine at once assumed
a very fat gliding angle and coasted
down to the surface of the water
wholly without human guidance. When
only a yard or two above the water
the pilot Strengthened out his craft
and landed as gently as a gull. Mr.
Webster had previously put the aero
plane through it's PAGES in a II minute
flight with Lieutenant Jerome c. Hun
saker u. s. NJ, as an observer. In a
second flight, the aviator took Lieu
tenant Hunsaker as a passenger on a
6-minute journey about the harbor.
This mornings tests were a continu-
alton of the series begun in an effort
to show that the Dunno is q fool
proof machine, which is so stable
inherently that it cannot be upset by
a careless or inexperienced operator.
So far the experiments have been very
promising, according to officials of the
Burgess Company and others who
have watched the flights.
In test Of longitudinal stability
yesterday the Burgess Dunno was
shown to be safe for stalling while in
the air. This danger, ever present in
other types of aeroplanes, has proved
to be prolific in producing injury and
death for aviators. After leaving the
water in his first flight yesterday, Mr..
Webster climbed to height of 20oo
feet Then he pulled back his control

Keep them free from the powdery

lions will be found of great value /:
Scab and blackleg in potatoes and
smut in grain are becoming more
prevalent every year. These may be
effectively and cheaply controlled by
soaking in formalin solutions. For
malin is also known as formaIdehyde.
Use the commercial or 40 per cent.
For potatoes use l pint formalin to
80 gallons of water and soak the seed
for two hours. This solution will con-
troll blackleg and prevent scab. For
smut use l pint formalin to As gal
Ions of water. Soak grain 20 minutes
IN sack then spread out to dry.
The expense Of the solution is small
and the cost of labor is not large.
1t would add many thousands of dol
lars to the value of our grain and
potato crops if each farmer would
treat his seed before planting.
Many of our best farms are infest-
ed with mustard and charlock. These
may be effectually controlled by ap-
plying one or more sprays of iron sui
phate solution broadcast upon the
fields infested. This should be done
when the plants are from two to
four inches in height, about the time
the second set of leaves are formed
The cost of spraying is not large and
the spraying will save many acres
Of grain crops, which at the present
time are nearly worthless. The spray
is not injurious to grass or grain
