AUTOS EXPORTED
0NLARGE SCALE:
Shipments Average One Ev-
cry Nine Minutes Past
Year, Is Report.
NUMBER OWNED ABROAD

That American exports of automo-
biles have increased to the point
where during the past year one auto
mobile was exported from the United
States on the average Of every nine
minutes day and night. Sundays and
holidays included. is shown by a de-
tailed study Of American automobile
exports, recently issued.
The average time elapsing between
shipments Of passenger cars was
twelve minutes, while the average be-
tween shipments Of commercial cars
was forty minutes.
These shipments mean that every
minute of the day and night $24e.2s
was spent by foreign purchasers OF
American automobiles and parts. in
cludins tires.
OF this amount $43.05 was spent
every minute by foreign purchasers
Of American tires. while $5.s3 was
spent every minute on magnetos,
spark plugs, etc.
The American Exporter has com.
piled an automobile census Of foreign
countries. showing the estimated
foreign countries as Of July. 1919
This estimate is based on the most
recent Information obtainab1e. In ar
riving at these figures use was made
Of such sources of information as the
official statistics Of automobile regis
trations and licenses issued in vari.
GUS foreign countries. the import and
export statistics Of these foreign
countries and the statistics Of pro.
duction of foreign countries which
manufacture automobiles. While
exact figures have not been obtain.
able in every case, it is believed that
the figures below are approximately
correct.

DATES FROM COLONIAL DAYS
George Washington Hotel, in Princess
Anne, Maryland, Relic of Coun-
try's Earliest Days.

Princess Anne, Nd, as its name sug-
gests, is a town with a history that
goes back to the time when Mary
land was a royal colony, ruled by Lord
Baltimore from his great estate at
Dover House.
Naturally, you expect Princess Anne
to be very Colonial in atmosphere.
The railroad station is your first dis
appointment, being surprisingly
large and substantial brick affair.
But then, railroads are great destroy
ers of atmosphere anyway. The George
Washington hotel, which is said to
derive its name from the fact that
the father of his country once spent
the night there, is all that you could
ask in the way of an antique. as is
the bus which takes you there.
The most interesting thing about the
George Washington hotel is its great
staircase, which was built 80 years
ago, and has not been substantially
altered since. There is one stairway
for women and one for men. These
differ in that the women's staircase
has only one railing. while that for
men has two-which seem to imply
that colonial men may have needed
a little extra support when they went
to bed after the festivities in the great
hall below.

Meats in Storage

Every working day of the year
$4,000, 900 pounds of meat are required
to supply home and export needs-and
only 10 per cent of this is exported.
These facts must be kept In mind
when considering the u. S. Bureau of
Markets report that on June ]. 1919,
there were 1,34s, OOO. 900 pounds of
meats In cold storage. IF the meat In
storage was placed on the market it
would only be 20 days supply.
This meat is not artifcially withheld
from trade channels to maintain or
advance prices.
Meats IN storage consist Of
SIS per cent (approxirnate) hams, bacon, etc,
in process OF curing. Il takes 80 to 90
days IN pickle salt to complete the
process.
10 per cent is frozen pork that is to be cured
later IN the year.
per cent is lard. This is only four-ffftts
Of pound per capita, and much of It viii
have to go to supply European needs.
1e per cent is frozen beef and lamb part of
which is owned by the Government and
was intended chiefly for overseas ship
ment. If this all diverted TO dones-
tic trade channels, II would be only
1H2 lbs. per capita-a days supply.

From this it will be seen that meats
In storage" represent merely un-
finished goods In process of curing and

the consumer steady flow of finished
