recently named by President Wilson
] TO succeed Mr.. B. s. Cutler, as chief
OF the bureau OF foreign and domes-

The successful development Of the

most lines, requires intensive treat
nent The time has come when we
must make the foreign markets like

more and more eevry year, am
confident 1t is especially important
that the bureau of foreign and do
nestle commerce which Is an agency
designed to inform American ex.
porters Of conditions abroad. should
devote itself seriously to the most
effective kind of personal contact
with foreign markets. Foreign
trade Is only partly a matter of

kinds. II 81 at the basis knowledge

WHICH t1dA human nature responds 10

I'VE are now on the eve OF the re-
sumption of trade with Germany. It
Is hard for us to adjust ourselves to
a state OF trade with a nation with
which so recently we wera in bitter
conflict. 1t is not possible, nor is it
the intention, to isolate nation with
which we have made peace. Since,
moreover, large indemnities have
been asked from the enemy powers as
partially recompense for the wrongs
which they have done, we cannot
make 1t impossible for them to meet
these obligations, There is only one
way in which Germany can pay her
obligations to the allies and that is
by the production OF her people. 1t
Is not possible to milk COW and cut

fore Germany can proceed with pro-

WHY PAPER is SMALLER
THAN USUAL THIS week

We issue this week the smallest
paper issued from this office during
the past year still you will find that
it contains much of interest.
The reason for this is a combina-
ton of circumstances-th first and
most important being that Thursday,
which is our regular publishing day,
is Thanksgiving Day.
Another reason is that we are doing
all we can to conserve our paper sup
ply for while we have been provident
in buying ahead for some time, the
outlook for next year is that all pa
pers must reduce in size and increase
rates for advertising and otherwise
retrench to meet the situation.
The other reason is we have lot
of job printing that we had promised,
and we make it a rule to keep our
promises to deliver the goods when
work is accepted for specific delivery.

RULES ANNOUNCED FOR
$1,000. NAME CONTEST

Rules for the award of one thou
sand dollars to the person first sug-
costing the best name word denoting
U. S. America and Britannia have Just
been announced by the World Trade
Club of San Francisco. The contest
is open to all humankind. Words to
be considered must be received be-
fore May, 1920. One thousand dol
lars has been deposited with the Wells
Fargo-Nevada National Bank of San
Francisco, and the amount will be
paid in the currency of the nation
from which the best word is suggest
ed, to the person first suggesting the
best name.
1t is interesting to note that names
have come from all quarters of the
Globe, particularly from U. S. Amer
lea, Australia, New Zealand, Tasman-
ia, British Isles, Canada. the Philip
pines, Eurasia, Africa, China, Japan,
Oceania. Names are pouring in from
all parts of the world, including
France and the Scandinavian coun-
tries. "Unitania" is the best word
received thus far. The question now
is, will someone devise a better name
than Unitania before l May, 1920,
and thus earn World Trade Clubs
award of 100000?

EVEN SCHOOL CHILDREN
DEMAND METRIC SYSTEM

The World Trade Club is daily re-
ceiving evidence as to the growing
strength of public opinion through
out Britannia in favor of metric
Standardization. Just the other day
word came from one of their CO.
workers in England of an interesting
episode that took place during one of
his lecture tours.
At Kingsbridge he spoke before a
gathering of enthusiastic schoolboys
from the local grammar school, tell
ing them of what adoption of the
metric units of measurement would
mean to the school children of the
world-how easy metrics are to learn,
how simple to apply-in short, that
it would lessen the necessary time
spent on arithmetic by years.
At the close of his talk, the boys
unanimously adopted resolution
urging other schoolboys to go on
strike with them against the British
weights and measures, and demanding
that only metrics be taught in the
schools. These English youngsters
realized the increase in efficiency, and
the immense saving of time and la
Dor obtainable through meter-liter-
gram.

JAPANESE FORAGE INTRODUCED

Kuduz, a native forage crop of ia
pan, has been successfully introduced
into the United States, and according
to specialists of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, it is a for
age which merits extensive use on
the heavy clay hillsides and otherwise
neglected land of the Southern
states Kudzu prospers in the east
ern part Of the United States, par
Ulcularly southwark, attaining luxur-
lous growth where the summers are
warm and moist. 1t is largely used
for ornamental purposes in most of
the Southern states, the decorative
vines often climbing to a height of
so feet or more.
The Japanese utilize kudzu on
rough, rocky hillsides which are too
steep to be cultivated, the fiber of
the stems being used to make "grass
CLOTH" an article of commerce, while
portmanteaus are also manufactured
from this fiber. The kudzu roots are
rich in starch, which is used extensive
ly in making cakes and noodles. They
also make hay from the kudzu vine,
1T being a great delicacy for sick
horses, as they will eat the kudzu
readily when they refuse other feed.
Fields in northern Florida, when
well established, have yielded three
cuttings of hay season and as high
as 10 tons an acre. Under favorable
conditions kudzu is profitable crop,
notwithstanding the fact that its pc
rennial nature does not permit of it's
being used in rotation.
