Trade Balance SOars.
To support the secretary's hopeful
views are the figures gathered by his
department as to American foreign
commerce since the outbreak of the
great war. Since August when the
monthly trade balance of the nation
showed a deficit of nearly 100000,
through excess of imports over ex
ports, the situation has been COM
pletely changed. For December alone
1t Is estimated the export excess will
reach 500. 100000 or more, with one
exception the highest mark OF the
last two years.
The war caught the country unpre-
pared in that a tremendous import
excess had been rolled up in the four
months preceding its outbreak. With
the August total included American
merchants were in debt to foreign
manufacturers and producers nearly
$40. 100000 by these figures alone.
Since then. including the December
estimate. the export excess has reach
ed total of $174.OO0,00O.

Canada Comes to Us For S45,OOO,OOO Loan
BY JOHN M. OsklsON.

For the first time In her history,
the government Of the Dominion OF
Canada has borrowed money from
the United States-$45, 000. 000--to
complete public works.
The syndicate OF American bank

Dominion's Ave per cent notes to
the public on these terms:
The S25.0o0.o 900 OF one-year notes,
maturing Aug. 1, 1915. at par, TO
yield the investor an even i've per
cent; and the S20.ooo.0o0 Of two
year notes. due Aug. 1. 1917. at
80 IL. to yield SIS per cent on the
investment.
This is a high return on such a Sc

tied between the government and
the bankers. II Ia probable that
Canada got the money on about a
FIVE and one-half per cent basis.

The general cattle trade OF the
country is working along under mix
ed conditions, which are dominated
very largely by local conditions. Fer
example. In Omaha. Kansas City and
other western markets. the well-bred
feeding steer. weighing between 900
and 1000, Is selling promptly and
at strong prices, but In Chicago.
where The embargo Is still In force,
everything Of purely feeder quality
must be sacrificed. simply because
there is no outlet for these cattle
except the slaughterhouse.
The same conditions obtain here
in Detroit, and owners Of likely little
cattle. devoid of killing QI..lty. will
90 well TO keep them away from all
guaranteed points. This policy as
sumes much more importance when
II is realized that ali of these cattle
will be badly needed to consume the
immense quantities Of rough feed
and grain which the American farm
er will produce this year. Not only
are these cattle badly needed for
the conversion OF rough forage and
grain into plant food. but
the meat product, which they will
AFFORD in their finished form. will
help TO postpone mea: famine,
which is just now threatening all
parts OF the universe. BY all means,
the little feeding cattle should be
kept back in the country until the
various market embargoes are lift
ed, or II they must be disposed Of,
let them be sold at private treaty,
