Exports Small Part of Total.
While the number and value OF cars
and trucks exported as given above look
large they represent but small per-
centage of the total production OF the
industry. Thus, the $4,000 passenger
cars exported in the fiscal year 1911
the largest in the history OF the industry
amounted to only about az per cent.
Of the total output. and the 2l.26S trucks
exported In the fiscal year 1916 was only
about one-quarter of the production Of
trucks during the same period.
With the ending OF the war the motor
vehicle manufacturers. together with
manufacturers and merchants in other
lines, recognized the opportunity and the
importance of developing trade with for
eign countries. 1t Is felt that the new
American merchant marine will be a
great aid and that the good will and bet
ter acquaintance established by the
United States throughout the world will
smooth the way for largely increased
volume OF reciprocal trade.
Heretofore the Unsuitable home de-
mand for automobiles has kept our man
ufacturers so busy that only n few of
the largest have sought export business
In earnest. the others merely accepting
that which came to them without special
effort Home demand Is expected to be
even larger In the next few years. but
with the increased facilities and wider
vision Of our manufacturers the desire
for world trade has been intensified.
Large export trade will provide a de-
sirable balance wheel for the industry,
equalising the production period through

The two broods due this year are brood 10
which belongs to the 17-year family, and brood 10
which belongs TO the 13-year family.
Brood 10 has the widest distribution Of any
brood Beginning at the eastern extremity OF
Long Island, it sweeps west and south to the Mis-
sissppi river at Cairo, ILL.,, and extends as far
north as central Wisconsin and as far south as
middle Georgia, with some isolated colonies as far
northeast as upper Vermont, and one as far west
as the boundary line between Iowa and Nebraska.
The whole or portions Of 20 states are included
within this range. There are three regions of
greater occurrence, one covering New Jersey
Maryland and eastern Pennsylvania; another COW
erng all of Indiana, the greater part of Ohio and
southern Michigan, and third covering western
North Carolina, eastern Tennessee, and northern
Georgia.
Brood IS, the 1S-year brood that comes out this
year, is comparatively a small brood and Is made
up Of scattered colonies rather than Of the dense
and compact swarms that mark the larger broods.
Five states are affected by it--Alabama, Georgia
North Carolina. South Carolina, and Tennessee

method is the hand collection Of the insects at the
time of emergcnce or as soon nfterward as pos

and great numbers Of them can be shaken off and

me cry OF the cicada generally an unwelcome one
Very long ago some superstition attached TO the
dark bars OF the filmy WINGS These bars are al
ways In the shape of the letter w, but few people
remember that through period of 13 or II years,
anu great slgnlncance Is attached to it at each
recurrence. Some prophet has arisen always to
announce that the w on the locusts wings means
"war" Since this outbreak will come lust at the
conclusion Of the greatest war, and when even the
imagination of the rural prophet could hardly con-
jure up the likelihood Of another one, some new
explanation will apparently have to be found this
time. But no doubt the cicada will, as usual be
greeted as harbinger Of disaster, and, as usual,
there will be reports Of deaths caused by stngs Of
the cicada, belief that has persisted in spite of
positive proof that the ccada has no sting. that
only by the EXTREMIST accident could it inhict
wound either with bill or oyipositor, and that 1t
could not in any case, inject poison.
injury Is Usually overestimated.
Upon every appearance of large broods Of the
ccada fear is aroused that trees will be destroyed
particularly young trees of the fruitng and orna-
mental species There would seem to be some
ground for such fear. The number of the in
sects is SO tremendous that one can hardly under
stand how they can deposit their eggs in the young
and tender branches of the trees without killing
them Yet the fact remains that there have been
outbreaks Of cicndas in sections Of the United
States in most of the years since this country was
discovered and that no very grave damage ever vet
has been done Very young fruit trees sometimes
are killed or seriously injured, but little or no
permanent injury Is done to forest trees mature
trees of any kind and measures of protection can
employed that will save the young and tender
stock from serious injury.
Inasmuch as the coming 1919 brood Of locusts
may be one Of the largest record, 1t is partlcu
larly important TO allay excessive fear of destruc
tion to timber as well as to have people on guard
20 that the few preventive measures possible may
be applied The belief that the 1919 brood will be
exceptionally large is based on the fact that the
17-year brood coming out this year Is brood 10

brood is Of the 13-year family comes out at the

SAGE TEA DARKENS
HAIR 10 ANY SHADE
Don't stay erayI Here's an Old
time Recipe that Anybody
can Apply.

The use Of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother's
time. She used it to keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and attrac-
tive. Whenever her hair took on that
dull, faded or streaked appearance,
this simple mixture was applied with
wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for bottle of "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you
will get this famous old preparation,
improved by the addition Of other in
gradients, which can be depended up
on to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it has
been applied. You siEply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
strand at time. By morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, it becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.-Adv.

TRANSFORMATION OF PERIODICAL cIcADA
NUMBERS INDICATE STAGES OF DEVELOPMENT
When the "17-Year-Locusts" Come.

The year 1919 is likely to be one Oh the
worst "locust years" on record But ento-
mologists of the United States department OF
agriculture see nothing alarming in the pros
pect.
The periodical cicada the real name OF the
insect commonly called "locust," will appear
this year in the following states: Alabama
District of Columbia, Delaware, Georgia.
Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky Maryland
Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New
York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania
South Carolina, Tennessee, Vermont, VIZ
ginia West Virginia, and Wisconsin.
The injury done by the periodical cicada
consists almost wholly in chseling grooves
l.. the branches Of trees for deposting eggs.
This injury always appears to be greater
than it actually is. Popular alarm Is usually
out of proportion to general damage
~ Young fruit trees are sometimes killed
nv the cicada The precautionary measures
are: Defer putting out young fruit trees till
next year; postpone budding operations; DO
no pruning this winter or spring.
When the insects begin coming out, hand
nick them from young fruit trees or spray
them with pyrethrum powder, Kerosene
admissions or solution of carbolic acid or
acetic acid.
Later. when the insects are ready to be-

KEEP THEIR MONEY AT HOME
Many People in England Evidently
Will Not Entrust Savings to
the Care of Banks.

A vast amount of money still lies
uninvested in the country, declares the
London Mail. In a Yorkshire village
there is a fisherman who is known to
have five thousand dollars in notes in
his thirty-dollara-year cottage. He
wears clothes which cost about ten
dollars before the war, and owns
fishing boat worth one thousand or t1f-
teen hundred dollars. In the same vii
lage a short time ago fisherman
bought his cottage, and when the own
er called for deposit he counted out
fifteen hundred dollars in gold, the full
purchase price. In neighbOring town
there is at least one fisherman who
has five thousand dollars or more in
notes In his little house, but he can
not be induced to invest any of 1t.
When he has been urged to do so he
has said that he preferred to have it
near him as it is safer" A woman in
a Yorkshire country town one morning
walked into a lawyers Office and pro-
duced handbag containing two thou
sand half-sovereigns which she had
collected in thirty years. After asking
advice on Investing the money she
stated that at night she took the hand
bag up to her bedroom. When she
travelled she took the handbag with
her, and on one occasion left it on the
rack in the train. She remembered her
treasure before she left the station
and recovered it.

name that Is incorrect In at least two particulars
1t is not locust at ALL that name being properly
applied only to members of the grasshopper family,
and while it has 17-year period, it also has IL
year period. 1t has been so long miscalled by the
name of locust however, that there is no hope OF
dvesting it of that incorrect appellation, and in
the regions where there is the longer period OF
