FOOD EXPORTS
ARE VERY. LARGE
Eliminating Food Ship
ments, U. S. Foreign
Trade Is Less.

Washington, D. C. June s.-''Despite
the sOcalled war orders" says an Off
cial analysis OF the foreign trade issued
by the department of commerce. @the
exports OF manufactures Of all kinds,
other than foodstuffs, have been less
than in the similar period before the
war"
The statement refers to the foreign
trade for the 10 months ended in April
which shows trade balance Of almost
81, OO0. 0OO. 900.
Increase Lies in FOOdstuffs.
The normal sales of manufactures
were greater than those under exist
ing war conditions Because OF this
fact and the extraordinary shrinkage
Of exports OF crude materials, it is
found that the net increase in our to-
tai exports has been wholly in food
stuffs.
One OF the outstanding features Of
the analysis is that more than S4S,
100000 worth Of American horses and
almost $4,000. 900 worth of mules has
lion dollars worth were sent to Europe
in April alone.

MATCH SCRATCH
COSTS HUNDREDS
Hotels and Office Buildings
Redecorated Often Be-
cause of Lowly Match.

Fl Paso smokers cost hotel men and
agents for office buildings hundreds
Of dollars a year. Only the fire de-
partment knows how much the care
less smoker costs the city in burned
buildings. but the expense to hotels
and office buildings is. in the aggre-
gate, probably as large.
The cost comes from striking
matches The striking Of a single
match is a simple thing but the striking
of millions Of matches a year on i'm
maculately painted walls mounts up.
In two large office buildings in FL
Paso the agents have been forced to
display large signs on each floor re-
questing the smoker to refrain from
striking his matches on the wall The
manager of one Of FL Paso's hotels Is
forced to have the walls of the lobby
OF the hotel reprinted twice and three
times a year to keep pace with the
match scratchers-
Is CarelesEness-
Most smokers seem TO think the
walls are papered with sandpaper," said
the hotel man.
1T is simply carelessness and a brand
OF carelessness that is peculiar to the
smoker. Watch the next man you see
light a cigar. Unless he IS in 4 draft
where he has to make a conscious
action in lighting his match. he viii
strike II Wherever MS ndnd uSnls-
There is no more unconscious act than
striking a match The man is talking
to a friend and, without a thought, he
places a cigar between his teeth, hauls
out a match and unsonsciously gropes
around for place to strike II, talking
all the time. II the place he strikes
happens to be a piece of furniture, a
freshly painted wall or a $4,000 oil
painting, it makes no difference As
soon as his hand encounters anything,
he scratches"
Safety Match n Savior.
Office building agents and hotel men
are pinning their faith to the safety
match At all Of the big hotels the
desk clerk is ever ready to hand out a
box OF safety matches. which acts both
as an ad for the hotel and striking
insurance. The agents may have to sta
ton safety match dispensers in the

the two buildings where signs have
been put up. the signs are already
literally streaked with match scratches
