SILK STOCKINGS MADE
 FROM AMERICAN TREES

Fifteen million pairs of silk stock fngs. the product of the American for est, were sent out of the United States last year to compete with he product of the oriental silk worm. Not that these American silk stockings actually grew on the trees but they were made from wood pulp, the product of Amer ican forests.
 The rapid growth in the art of mak- ing artificial silk in the United States is Illus ted, according to state ment by the National City Bank of New York, by the fact that 15,0ee.eee pairs of stockings manufactured from artificial silk were exported from the United States in the fiscal year 1913 against only 6,eee.0ee pairs in 1915 and 2e0e eco in 1917.
 So rapid has been the development of this industry by which the Amer ican chemists and manufacturers have entered into competition with the oriental silk worm that the value of artificial silk manufactures exported from the United States has grown frofn ss61 0ee in the fiscal year 191T to AzR1t eco In 1918, and 7,677,0e9 in 1913, being thus nine times as much in val ue in 1919 as only two years earlier, fhe first year In which the govern ment thought the industry of suffi- csent Importance to Justify record Of It's expert.

 The production or artificial silk in the United States has been greatly stimulated during the war period Formerly considerable quantities of this material which has been manu- factured in Europe for several years were imported into the United States, especially from Germany, Austria Hungary. Belgium, France and the United Kingdom, but the reduction in this supply from abroad led the Am erican manufacturer to "get busy and he turned out in 1914 100000 pounds
