Hollands Foreiqn Trade.

The Tn- en- uItvOer" publishes
the following analysis Of Dutch for
eign trade during the first half OF
1917:
The value Of the leading articles
imported into Holland from Germany,
or rather. Of those articles which are
included In the official figures of the
central bureau Of statistics ("Maand-
statlstlek van Cen In on Ultvoer en-
van het Enirepotverkeer'') in the first
quarter Of the year was 25,385,107 for,
lns (about S10,400,000 at exchange Of
S0.4D, and, I'm the second quarter 49,
2S4G06 forms (about S1S,567 ,00W, II
total OF 70643,713 forms IL the first
six months Of 1917. The value OF the
chief articles exported to Germany was

in the first quarter and 52,84l ,202 for
ins (abont S21 ,e85 5GO0) In the second,
or lC20SS,777 forms for the half year
Thus, in the first quarter Holland sent
almost twice az much to Germany as
II received, but In the second quarter
the import trade with Germany almost
balanced the export trade.

TOPOGRAPHIC MAPS AND WAR
Drawings Give Leaders a comprehen-
slve View OF the Important
Geographic Relations.

II has been said that many Of the
battles of the Civil war would never
have been fought had there been topo-
graphic maps, for those in command
could have studied n map of the coun-
try about them and they would never
have subjected their men to such
marches as were made and then have
expected their men TO fight, states u
student Of military engineering. But
Topography in its general sense and as
IT. is shown today on the maps Of the
geological survey was little known In
the sixties. The engineer corps of the
army was highly efficient, even at that
time, but the topographic engineer did
not appear in the American army Until
August g. 1861. when an act of con
gress authorized the enlistment OF one
company of Topographic engineers.
This company was afterward merged
into the corps Of engineers.
Today within the wide boundaries Of
our country, which embraces more than
B.000000 square miles, there are a hun
dred million people. They live on
Farms, In villages and in towns and
cities. Their dwelling places may he
separated by broad rivers and rugged
mountains, but the use of the topo.
graphic map Is gradually knitting
Them Systematically together, and ut
any time that this widespread popula-
tion may he required TO move In con.
certed action for II common cause the
Topographic map will give the leaders
comprehensive view of the geo.
graphic relations, so that the problem
of moving can be solved more quickly
and with better Judgment. The topo-
graphic map, It is pointed out by ex-
perts OF the survey, like the telephone
and the typewriter, has become a ne
cessity, and we wonder now how we
have ever done without Il.
The IMAM In the street" may have
Thought little OF the value of the work
OF the Topographic engineer, and to him
and others who have not considered
the Importance of that work some H.
lustratiOns Of Its value might be In
teresting.

Again, 10 cents spent by reclama-
