misunderstanding to Lloyd's Reg
lister of Shipping for 1920-21 just is
sued, the seagoing tonnage Of the Uni
ted States apart from Great Lakes
shipping, has increased since 1914 by
over 500 per cent and now stands at
12,4O6,0O0 tons. Thus the United
States comes second only to the Uni
ted Kingdom which has 1S,111,OOO
tons.
Japan. which in 1914 took sixth
place, is now third. with 100000 tons,
closely followed by France with $685.
600 tons.
Including sailing ships, but exclud-
ing tonnage on the Great Lakes the
United States now owns "a per cent
Of the worlds tonnage as against AZ
per cent six years ago, the Register
states.
The figures shown for the formerly
belligerent countries include con-
siderable amount of enemy tonnage
Professionally allocated TO those cOun-
tries. Germany, which in 1914 oc-
cupied, after the United Kingdom, the
first position with over 100000 tons
Of shipping, now only owns $4,000
tons.
The steam tonnage owned by the
principal maritime countries in June,
1920, totalled $500, 900. an increase
of S,501 900 tons as compared with
June, 1914; but it is computed thar
the worlds net loss in shipping
through the war, taking into account
the suspension in normal shipbuilding
activities, amounts to $4,000 tons.
There is reduction In sailing tom
mage since pre-war days of $4,000
tons, much smaller decrease than in
any previous six year period and
doubtless accounted for. says the Reg
lister, by the shortage of other tonnage
having given new life to the cOnstruc-
ton Of sailing vessels. The United
States, the only country which has in
| creased sailing tonnage since 1914,
now owns over 43 per cent of the
worlds sailing tonnage.

Wood Ejbers.

The common ideas concerning wood
fbers are not justified by the extended
tests Of the United States forest prod
ucts laboratory. Each species Of wood
does not have its characteristic fiber
length, but greater difference may
be found between the fbers OF an indi-
vidual tree than between the average
lengths in different species. The length
of fiber does not seen TO affect the
strength of the wood, as the longest
fibers often belong to the weakest ma

FISHING.

To dream Of fishing is sign of hap
piness, if with pole and line, small in
degree; If with nets, much greater. II
you catch any fish by either method
it's a sign Of success, in proportion to
the manner of catching. To dream Of
a fish pond is a sign Of good fortune ;
Of fish bone, of illness. Of fin, of
poverty. To be surrounded by many
fishermen signifies great good luck and
remarkable success in your undertak.
