Despite the dictum of the doctors that we eat
too much, the professors in the department of
agriculture constantly are adding new foods to
the list and trying to popularize their use by
scattering broadcast bulletins telling Of their nu

edible that the American is: asked to claim his
own, along with mince pie, doughnuts, and clam

and possums." The only fruit which equals the
persimmon in its value as food is the date, ar

That persimmons are unfit to eat before they

Export Trade Figures.

The preliminary government export state
ments for October show an export surplus for the
month of $210,O00,00O. The actual figures will
be much larger, because the foregoing estimate
is based on returns from the country's twelve
principal ports and does not include all the ports
of the United States
Experts declare that the complete returns
for October will show an export surplus Of 1884,
10000, which would be the record in the history
of the United States. The high record for any
one month in the nations history the $173,-
900 of last February.
These figures indicate that the shipments of
war munitions are growing in volume and that
The scope of the trade must have considerably in
creased in the last six months.
An analysis of the exports to the various
European country during the last nine months
and comparison with the foregoing period last
year, reveal some interesting data for the pro-
German and the pro-British factions Of the
United States. n ~ {
Exports to Germany in the first nine months
Of 1915, according to a statement just received
from the department of commerce, were only
S11,785, 3O7, compared with $685. ,3O7 for the
same period last year. Exports to Great Britain
for nine months this year were $685., 849, 145 and
for the same period last year $374,282,472. Ex-
ports to France in nine months this year were
1868, 23O, 9O8, and for the same period last year.
$94,616,314
F., Exports to Sweden show tremendous
growth. For the first nine months this year
they were SEC, 462, $50, and for the corresponding
period last year only $9,673, 800. Evidently the
Swedish merchants selling vast quantities Of
goods to the Teutonic allies. -@ssa.@@
The astonishing difference between the ex-
port figures for nine months this year and the

with the Allies shows conclusively that the
