War Gives Boost to
u. S. Condensed Milk

War conditions in Europe have given
a big boost 20 the export business OF
the American condensed milk industry.
Exports from this country in 1919
totaled 76.O00,O 900 pounds. valued at
5000 CO., according to figures furnished
by the Bureau OF Foreign and Domestic
Commerce. The bulk OF these exports
went to Europe.
In normal times the value OF con-
densed milk sold abroad fiuctuates be-
tween 1900, 900 and 100000 Ordinarily
the best customers are Cuba. Panama,
China, and Mexico.
Increased exports to Europe are easy
TO explain, but there has been an IN
crease In imports from Europe that
puzzles commerce experts
Italy's recent participation In the
American trade has caused some COM
ment, but the fact that Holland and
Switzerland sold much larger quanti-
ties OF milk In the United states in
1915 than ever before Is considered more
remarkable, for these two countries
have access to practically all markets
In Europe.
The total imports into the United
States from all countries in 1916 were
valued at practically $2.OO0OO0 or one
third OF the exports, and although Can
ada furnished more than half, Holland
did a business approximating $500. 900. as
against less than $500, 900 the year prev1-
GUS. Switzerland now Is selling TO the
United States at rate OF x2S0 900 a
year, where formerly practically no
milk came from that country.

TELLS OF IDEALS IN

An official statement today reports
that nine Erzerum forts are now In

Has Garrison Of 100000.
"A Turkish garrison OF i6O.olO IL re-
ported gathered inside the wallis OF Er-
zer,im. Occupation ot the remaining
forts and the cdrturc OF this force
would bring n greater triumph to Rus
sian arms than the capture Of Przcmysl
In Galicia.
Erzerum's fall would have the way
for great spring advance by the grand
dukes army through eastern Armenia
and perhaps force Turkev TO sue for
peace, military experts believe.
How many forts remain in the hands
of the Turks is not known unoffcially
here. Three years ago the city was de-
tended by six great forts along the
eastern outskirts. but II Is believed
others have been built since the out
break of the war.
Erzerum is one Of the most strongly
fortified positions in the east. Even the
most optimistic military critics do moi
expect it's capture until several weeks
more OF heavy artillery battering and
infantry fighting has occurred.
Difficult To Assault.
The city itself. with a population OF
about 10000. lies at the end OF a valley
on a high plain. 1t is surrounded by a
stono wall. built bv the Turks three
centuries ago. A high mountain ridge
outside the wall. and on the eastern
border of the city protects Erzerum
from attack from the direction OF the
Russian Caucasus
The strongest forts were constructed
along this ridge. At each end Is a high
peak, making lnnking attacks out OF
question, and forcing the attacking
army to make u frontal assault under
the greatest difficulties.

Suggestion that during the rush hours

Mr.. Hoyt says that while this would
mean an expense for extra conductors,
II would be less than the cost OF build
ing additional lines. which appears 10
be the only oeiier practicable method OF
providing additional service.
The regulations OF the Public Utilities
