upright pianos made in the United
States for or with player attachments
increased from 34,495 to 87,808, or
1916 per cent, while their value in
creased from $9,275,OO1 to $20,S92,514,
or 1855 per cent, according to Uncle
Sans census figures on the industry
just given out. The number of grand
pianos made for or with player at
tachments increased from 21 in 1909
to 831 in 1914.
At the same time the output of
upright pianos without player at.
tachments decreased in number from
321,3O9 in 1909, to 1886 in 1914.
bringing reduction of 1915 per cent
in the output Of pianos of all kinds.
The number of organs manufactured
decreased 34.5 per cent in the FIVE

USE WIRELESS TELEPHONE
IN TALKING TO WARSHIPS
Navy Department Officials Adopt New
est Wonder in So-CalIed MobliZa-
ton of Communication Aids.

Uncle Sam is mobilizing the COM
munication system Of the navy. At
least that is the way the officials of
the navy department refer to the ef-
forts that are being made to make
use of the most up-to-date methods Of
communication between the various
vessels of the navy and between the
Offices of the navy department in
Washington and the vaRious units of
the navy. These efforts have cul-
minated now in the incorporation of
wireless telephony into the new sys-
TEN.
The other day Secretary of the Navy
Daniels, from his Office in the navy
department, actually talked through
the air from Washington to the cap
tain of the battleship New Hampshire,
at Hampton Roads, more than two
hundred miles away. Immediately
after this feat the secretary talked by
long-distance telephone lover wires)
to the senior naval officers at Ports
mouth, N. H.; Santiago, CAL; Pensa-
cola. Fla, and Puget Sound, Wash.
Both wireless and the long-distance
wire systems reaching across the con-
tinent have been introduced as regu-
lar features of the navy's communica-
tion system. These Improvements
vastly increase the efficiency of the
navy and would be of inestimable
value in a crisis.

TIN-PLATE INDUSTRY GROWS
Output In United States Increases SIS
Per Cent in Five Years-Busi-
ness Built Up Since 1891.

The growth of the American tin.
plate business since 1909 is shown by
statistics of the United States bureau
of the census, which places the in
crease in the output of tinplate and
terneplate from 1909 to 1914 at $780,
462,S7S pounds, or 61.9 per cent. The
value of the output increased $19, $780,
sol, or 41.8 per cent This growth
was all in tinplate, as the output of
terneplate, which, in 1914, constituted
less than seven per cent of the total
production of coated plates. was
somewhat smaller in 1914 than in
1901. Terneplate consists of steel or
iron plates or sheets coated with an
alloy of tin and lead known as terne
mixture
The tinplate industry in the United
States dates from 1891, as prior to that
year practically the entire domestic
market was supplied by imports.

kitchen table more than halfway up,
so that the little ones could reach it.
Round the table after it had been
painted green, was nailed green
ledge Of wood-tO keep in the sand
quite four inches deep, and table and
ledge alike were lined with zinc. Clean
white sand was Sow distributed even
ly over the table, and the children
hugely enjoyed a game of "being at

things and flowers and set church

Horned Lark
(Otocoris alpestris)


Length, about seven and three
fourths inches. The black mark across
the breast and the small, pointed tufts
of dark feathers above and behind
the eyes distinguish the bird.
Range: Breeds throughout the
United States Except the South At
lantic and Gulf states) and Canada;
winters in all the United States ex-
cept Florida.
Habits and economic status:
Horned larks frequent the open coun-
try, especially the plains and deserts.
They associate in large fiocks, are
hardy, apparently delighting in ex-
posed situations in winter, and often
nest before snow disappears. The
flight is irregular and hesitating, but
in the breeding season the males
ascend high in air, singing as they go,
and pitch to the ground in one thrill
ling dive. The preference of horned
larks is for vegetable food, and about
one-sixth of this is grain, chiefly waste.

The great European war has forced
upon us the industrial leadership of
the world. And thereby it has also
brought home to us with singular force
the Importance of foreign trade. Three
years ago it would have been difficult
to arouse much serious interest in the
middle West or in the South on the
subject of foreign trade. Overseas
markets meant little to producers.
manufacturers and merchants not To-
Gated near the Atlantic, Gulf or Pa
cific seaboards.
Today it is different. Our farmers
in the middle West have realized that
because nations, thousands of miles
away, have gone to war, and because
the supplies of wheat from certain
large wheat-producing sections Of the
world have been cut off from their
usual markets, there is a special de-
mand for American wheat and the
prices obtained for the largest crop
produced in the history of the United
States are the highest prices on
record.
At the same time the producers of
cotton in another section of the United
States have had brought home to
them with disastrous forcefulness the
fact that a large part of the cotton
crop of the United States is marketed
in Europe, that when those markets
were suddenly cut off the price of
cotton went down and down until it
was scarcely more than half of the
usual price, and far below the cost
of production. Both of these groups
have suddenly and for the first time
realized the importance of foreign
trade.
AS a matter of fact the whole ma
tion has had an object lesson, staged
on a tremendous scale, of the impor-
tance of that comparatively small pro-
portion of our total trade that may be
classed as foreign" That small por-
