dscap to the textile Industries In
France today is the lack OF raw ma.

The textile industries Of Aisace arc
OF great importance and employ over
rs, 900 persons. The mills OF Alsace
include those Of cotton, wool. silk and
jute. the cotton industry being the
most important. The cotton spinning
mills Of Aisace possessed 100000
spindles before the war producing s0.-
900 tons OF threat per annum, besides
which there were $4,000 looms con-
suming $1,000 tons of thread and pro-
ducing $4,000 tons OF cloth. The re-
turn OF Aisace will permit France to In :
crease her cotton production 30 per
cent and double her former export
production OF 10000 TONS The WOOL
industry is not so highly developed as
the cottonindustry. but there are over
56s, 900 wool spindles In Alsace pro-
ducing $4,000 tons OF wool thread

The textile conditions throughout
France as a whole are daily improving

Textile Industry
The textile industry is one Of the
most important and prosperous
branches of French commerce, the
three chief textiles being cotton, wool
and silk. Before the war. these in
dustries brought. yearly about $780,
900. 900 francs worth Of raw silk from
China and Japan, Of flax and wool
from Australia and England. and OF
raw cotton from the United States.
Each year France has sold abroad
silk products for sum slight
" in excess Of the figure quoted above
for the total imports BY reason Of
the war, other countries have secured
a part of Frances textile export trade,
but the superior quality Of the French
product is such that these markets
will eventually be recovered.
During the war the French textile

and furniture supplies alone have
reached total OF 4,372, 900, 900 francs
France is fortunate In having crou
! prospects which break the records for
the several previous years. The cereal
crops were estimated last July to range
in excellence from ~ per cent to n
| per cent as compared with 81 per cent
and G6 per cent for 1919. The average
condition OF all crops for 1920 was
put at rs per cent which compares
favorably with the average of 81 per
cent for 1919. The consumption of
wheat in France for 1920 is estimated
at 1873, $4,000 cwt. of this the 1920
crop Is expected to provide between
80 and 30 per cent.
In this connection IL is noteworthy
that the Liberated Regions are at
present producing sufficient cereals for
their own use and will shortly pro-
duce a surplus.
Before the German invasion, France
produced beet sugar in excess of the
domestic demand. but soon after the
war nearly so per cent of the beet-root
area was overrun by the enemy. Con-
sequentiy. France was forced to turn
importer of sugar. At present, how
ever. the fields and factories of the
Deet-SuBar INDUSTRY are Dcing rapidly
recultivated and rebuilt. and France is
again approaching her pre-war pro-
duction.
Coal Resources
France consumed before the war
over 63.000.00O tons OF coal annually. |
OF which she produced, roughly Az
100000 tons. leaving 21.000, 900 tons to |
be imported. BY the terms of the |
peace treaty. France acquired control |
Of the Saare Basin. containing coal de-
posits estimated at I2.500. 200. 900 tons |
Actual production from these coal /
fields in 1913 was 100000 tons.
This new source of coal will take care
OF the additional demand on France
from the industries Of Alsace- Lorraine
and will lessen the French normal
shortage, but will not offset the loss

Madam Spider said she could never

Some time after this all happened
Mr.. Mouse grew bold again and ran
out of the pantry one day and Puss

Around the kitchen she chased him,

He could not get back to the pantry,

him, so she sat quite still and
watched poor trembling Mr.. Mouse,

Puss bent her head and brushed
