NEWS OF WORLD NElGHBoR.
HOOD

The dissemination of information
respecting business and industrial
activities throughout the world is be-
ing done by the Department of Com
merce with a thoroughness never
before approached.
From this weeks reports one
learns that the orange groves in
Palestine are bearing heavily, as
they have not done for several years;
that Danish beet growers receive I'm
der contract fifty per cent of the net
profits of the beet sugar factories
and are responding with increased
acreage and effort. Their scientists
have, since 1873. increased the per-
centage Of sugar in beets from 6.G5
to II per cent.
Australia is having hard luck with
her attempts to supply fruit to the
English market and the quantities of
beef in cold storage warrant let
ting Australian cattle go onslaught
cred for another year. Mexican
millers are afraid they cannot COM
pete with the millers in the United
States under the new tax upon i'm
ported grain. And Korea exports
wheat for more than the local mill
ers can pay and is compelled in con-
sequence to import much of her
-four.
The meat and packing industry in
Paraguay is in such a bad condition
that tie government exempts the
British packers in that country from
duty on imports of machinery anc
grants free expectations of meat
extracts, canned meats and other
products Of the packing industry.
In Italy the peasants following the
sugar shortage turned to bee keep
Ing and honey has now become so
popular in that country as to insure
a steady demand for the product and
profit to the bee-keepers And
speaking OF bee culture, the Depart
ment reports that a superior grade
of honey comes from Haiti, where
the white blossom OF the logwood In
troduced by the French more than
a hundred and ninety years ago
Yields a superior nectar. But the
making OF honey is a small enter
prise there today in comparison with
the increasing exports Of the log
wood.
And so the old world is getting
all the neighborhood news and in
due course of time under this ex-
cellent method should arrive at
pretty good understanding of itself.

To marry and arrive at middle age
without children is a great disap-
pointment to many women. Think of
the joy and comfort other women
have in their children as they grow
older.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound has helped to bring great
happiness to many families by re-
storing women to health. Often the
childless home is due to a run down
condition of the wife, which may be

A little more giving and little less

A little less kicking man when he's

A little more we" and little less IT."
A little more laugh and little less

A little more flowers on the pathway

a beauty. On Tuesday, Asia +. Hay

industries of Maine. Like many un-

North Jay, SO long dependent on
the granite quarries for it's existence
now boasts n second industry in the
business of William Newhall, mocas-
sin manufacturer. His shop, which is
situated on the lower floor Of the
Knights of Pythias Hall, has been
running about a month. 1t occupies
space 40 feet by so feet. It's output
consists of sport and work moccasins
for men, women and children and
comprises practically all the popular
styles and models. In addition, Mr.
Newhall is putting out special make
designed for railroad men. The ma
Chinery is of the latest and most up
todate design. This, combined with
the fact that Mr.. Newhall is an ex-
pert moccasin maker, should insure
the success of the business. At pres
ent the facilities are equal to the pro-
duction of a hundred pairs of mecca
sins day, and this is not sufficient to
take care of his orders. However
this number will be increase as fast
as efficient help can be obtained.
