NEW ARMY FOR u. S.
OF 4,5OO,OOO is SEEN

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.-The War
Department is preparing plans for
the training of 5000 officers at re-
serve camps during the next year.
The General Staff estimates that
one officer is required for every
thirty men in the service. so the War
Department PREPARATIONS. based on
that estimate. would Indicate that the
government is laying the foundation
for an army of 100000, in addition
to the 100000 who have been called
to the Regular Army. the militia and
the National Army.
Baker Keeps Silence.
II is impossible to get from Secre-
tary Baker or the Chief of Staff any
statement of the size of the army
which the United States expects to
place in the field ultimately
1t is known however that what ap.
pears to be delays in getting first
troops into the field have been mere
~ parts of a thoroughly worked out
scheme of mobilization whereby arm
les would be organized as rapidly as
they could be supplied and trans
ported.
The Administration has constantly
endeavored to avoid the confusion of
Spanish War days, when the War
Department tried to organize an army
without adequate consideration of its
necessities.
The present shortage of guns and
supplies, Secretary Baker said today
will disappear before the National
Guard is in France and the first draft
ia organized into divisions. There
after the available supplies will in
crease so that great numbers of
troops may be mohilized and thor
oughIy equipped with speed and pre-
cision.
VIII Not Hurry.
The War Departments theory Is
that the first 500. 900 men from the
United States will merely help to
give the Allies slight advantage.

CAMP LEWIS. American Lake,
Sept. 6.-The camp postoffice is
probably the busiest place in this
part of the state OF Washington. The
very first thought of every man who
reaches camp is to write home-and
friends at home write back.

ment arrives and where it comes

of the camp postoffice. said today

but that the millions who may be
sent after them will end the war. To
attempt to rush such a programme
through IN few months would most
ly result in confusion and failure,
ranking officials of the War Depart
ment insist.
Preparations for the present army
scheme will be kept slightly in ad-
vance of the plans of the shipping
board. The War Department does
not desire to have great forces on its
hands in this country. Whenever the
shipping is available themtroops will
be ready to march abroad.
An evidence Of the change of pol
icy in training army officers was un-
covered today when it developed that
the War Department has asked the
French government to send a corps
of officers fresh from the trenches to
teach the new American officers
modern warfare. The second reserve
officers camps and those which follow
will be handled to large extent by
Frenchmen who have learned war in
the trenches and not in swivel chairs.
Offers Turned Down.
When the United States entered
tho war France offered instructors
for our armies. England did the
same The offers were flatly but po-
litely turned down by Mr.. Baker at
the dictation of the General staff.
The Swivel chair generals" at the
War Department and the war college
insisted that nobody could teach
West Point graduate anything about
war. They apparently took the posi-
tion that Americans could over night
become proficient in a system which
the French have learned only through
the hardest experience.
The result of this refusal of the
French offer has been that $1,000
American reserve officers have been

United States Leads World in
Sales, Says Uncle Sam.
Apples Comprised one-Thlrd Of Total
Shipments Worth $34,2so,ooo
In 1916.

The United States leads the world
In the export of fruit, says Uncle Sam.
The fruit exports from this country
were valued at $1S,505, 900 in 1910 and
S34 100000 in 1915. Fresh and dried
apples comprised one-third of the
value of these exports. Italy and
Spain are second and third, respective
ly. During the five years from 1909
to 1913, the average value of the fruit
exports from Italy was $21, ,492 900,
and from Spain $21,353,000.
With reference to imports of fruit,
the three leading nations are the Unit
ed Kingdom, Germany and the United
States. During the five years, 1909-13,
imports of fruit into the United King
dom averaged $69,S27, 900 annually, as
compared with SAL ,4S5,000 for Ger
many in the same period, and $27,OS1,-
900 for the United States in 1915. For
the United Kingdom, the chief fruits
imported were oranges, apples and
bananas; for Germany, apples, grapes
and oranges, and for the United
States, bananas, canned pineapples
and lemons.
Countries which lead in the cultiva-
ton for export of some particular kind
of fruit are Asiatic Turkey for dates,
raisins and dried figs; Greece for dried
currants, Hawaii for canned pineap-
pies, Italy for lemons, Jamaica for ba-
nanas, Japan for persimmons, Spain
for oranges, table grapes and picked
olives, and the United States for
prunes.
Large quantities of grapes and OIL
Ives are consumed in the form of
wine and olive oil. With regard to
wine, France produced during the ten
years, 1904-13, an annual average of l.
40S00O,000 gallons, while Italy and
Spain, during the five years, 1909-13,
produced an annual average of 1916
100000 gallons, and 393,000,000 gallons
respectively.
AS to olive oil, the average annual
production in Italy during the five
years, 1909-13, was 47,913,Q00 gallons,
and in Spain, 242,000 short tons annu-
ally during the same period.

TO FORCE STUDY OF ENGLISH
Uncle Sam Plans "Big Drive" to Com
pei Foreign Speaking Workmen
to Learn Language.

Uncle Sam is preparing for a big
drive-mostly on the eastern front.
He is going to send 100000 foreign
speaking workmen into the trenches,
figuratively; into English language
schools, literally.
There are, roughly, 100000 adult
foreigners in the United States who
cannot speak English, and they are
not anxious to learn
1t has been up to Philander ClaXton,
United States commissioner of educa-
ton, to see that these foreigners are
AmericaniZed.
In 1915 and 1916 Commissioner
Claxton established many schools to
teach English to foreigners, and in
duced large industrial establishments
to start schools. The attendance was
negligible.
Now he has determined upon a big
effort to literally drive them into the
schools.
Practically all of the 100000 for
eigners are employed in large indus
trial establishments.
Practically all of the large estab-
III Tllle HuNt
Commissioner Claxton, by letter, that
they are willing to establish English
schools in their plants and make the
schooling compulsory, just as soon as
Commissioner Claxton outlines plan.
Representatives of most of these in
dustrial combinations will be in Wash
ington this week, at the convention
and just as soon as it closes Commits
sioner Claxton will open an "Ameri-
canization" convention in the Willard.
He has persuaded most of these men
TO remain over for his convention and
help him work out plans for this big
educational scheme.
Two Detroit automobile plants
started some months ago to carry out
the commissioners idea.
The schools will be opened in other
plants throughout the country within
several &nonths, and will be the most
important work ever attempted by the
buread.

MARKET LITHoGRAPHlc STONE
American Quarries Report considera.
BILE Production in 1916 for the
First Time.

In 1916 for the first time there was a
considerable production of photographic
stone in this country. This production,
according to information received by
G.. f. Loughlin of the United States
geological survey, department of the
interior, was made by the Kentucky
Lithograph Stone company, which has
quarries at Brandenburg, KY, and an
office at Louisville. In 1916 the COM
pany sold 10000 pounds of finished
stone at prices ranging from 21a to
81 cents a pound. For some years pre-
vious small quantities had been sold
occasionally in Louisville, but in 1916
the stone was shipped 70 buyers as
far away as Cleveland, Washington,
New York and Boston.
The greatest difficulty in the develop
ment of lithographic-stone quarries in
the United States has been the high
cost of quarrying and preparing the
stone in competition with the we'll
known Bavarian stone. Much of this
stone is reported to occur in thin lay
ers that require only planning and pol
ishing before use, whereas all known
deposits in the United States that are
at all suitable for photographic work
occur In more massive beds that must
thickness. High cost of labor in the
United States and of railroad as COM
pared with ocean transportation have
also stood in the way of the domestic
industry.

FRUIT EXPORTS LARGE FARM WORK EXTENDED
Uncle Sam Gives Aid to Greater
Number of Women and Girls.
Figures for Year Show That Effort,
of Agricultural Department Are
Not Confined to Assisting Men.

Fields farmed as demonstrations IL
agriculture under the supervision OF
the office of extension work, south, OF
the department of agriculture, during
the past year, returned as rule yields
100 per cent in excess of the average
for the section, according to experts OF
the department in touch with this par
ticular line of work. This class OF
work, it is stated, resulted in wide
spread adoption of better methods
particularly in the preparation of land
selection of seed and the cultivation OF
crops.
While 1t is true that Uncle Sam's
agricultural department is for the bene
fit of the farmer, yet the great amount
of good accomplished by most of its
bureaus is astonishing. For instance
it is pointed out that in 1915 of the 731
regular county agents, 407 were
women, and 26 special boys club
agents were engaged alone in the ex
tension work in the South. They car.
ried on work with 10000 adult farm
ers during the year, approximately
$4,000 boys, nearly 1000 women, and
about $4,000 girls. In 1916 these fig
ures increased to the same number
of adult farmers and boys and to 49,
900 girls and 10000 women.
During the past year the office per-
fected its organization through the
state colleges of agriculture for dem
onstrat1on work among the negroes,
and at the beginning of the last fiscal
year had 81 men and woman negro
agents at work in IL states.
While the white agents have from
the beginning assisted the negro farm
ers and tenants, it was found advisable
in some counties where there is large
negro population to appoint a negro
agent to work entirely with the ne
groes. There is close cooperation,
it is said, between the negro agents of
the department and the negro schools,
negro agricultural colleges and other
institutions of the state working along
the same lines.
In addition to it's regular activities,
the office of extension work carried on
during the past year, 1t is said, several
special campaigns, wherever it deemed
advisable, in hog cholera, tick eradica-
ton and boil weevil control work. The
office is also said to have made prog
ress in its work seeking to make per-
manent the changes of the past few
years for greater crop diversification.
Demonstrations of various kinds
were carried on, the experts say, COW
ering nearly a million and half
acres of field crops and more than two
million fruit trees. Instruction was
given to approximately 10000 farmers
in the care of fertilizer, resulting in the
saving of more than 100000 tons.

Here's One Kind of Eggs
That Are Not Very Scarce

The hens may strike, but there
is no dearth of fish eggs, accord
ing to an announcement just
made by Uncle Sam, who points
out that the collection of fish
eggs during the six months end
ing December 81 last amounted
to the grand total of 2,074,S6S,-
692 as against 1872, 1885, 1888 dur
ing the same period of the last
previous year. Put-in-Bay, o.,
seems to be very near the egg
center of the world,\ according
to the bureau, which says:
"Whitefish egg collections at
the Put-in-Bay (O.) station have
been generally successful, the to-.
tai number obtained during the
season amounting to 357, 100000.
OF this number 121, 100000 were
shipped in the green state direct
from the fishing fields to various
state fish hatcheries and to other
Great Lakes stations of the bu-
reau."
The collection of salmon eggs
alone shows a large decrease.
