E=J ASHINGTON, Oct. 18.-Can-
INXI ada, within the last few
w years, has taken our wheat
trade right out from under our
noses.
This report comes from the United
States Department of Commerce
During the last fiscal year Canada S
flour exports were 218 per cent
greater than they were in the pre-
war period, while the United States
has increased it's exports only 81
per cent.
In barrels, Canada's increase has
been from $4,000 to 12,1S4.000.
The United States has increased its
exports in barrels only from 10,678,-
600 to 17.253,000.
The United Kingdom has always
been one Of our best customers. We
shipped it 2,713,000 barrels of flour
before the war, compared to Canad-
ian shipments of 2,355,0O0 barrels.
But in 1924, says the Department of
Commerce, the United States sent
only 1852 900 barrels. while Canada
increased it's exports to the mother
country to 4326, 900.
Increase In Germany
To German. United States ex.
ports increased from $4,000 barrels
in the pre-war period to Lass, 900 in
1924, but Canada's increase was still
more striking-from $4,000 to 2.251,-
900 barrels.
Norway decreased its -four imports
from the United States from 2I3 900
barrels in pre-war years to 10000
lin 1924 From Canada ii imported
465. 900 barrels in 1924, compared to
10000 in prewar years.
Combine exports from the United
States and Canada and they We're
IA. 927 600 barrels more in 1924 than
before the war or this increase the
share OF the United States was g.
575. 900 barrels. or A. per cent. and
that OF Canada 1852. 900. or sc per
cent.
Canada got the Hons share of the
increase-no mistake about that. She
even exported 300 per cent more
-four to the United States In 1924
than she did in years before the war.
Grow Less Wheat
This trend checks up with what
the Department OF Agriculture has
been saying for some time, that
American farmers would grow less
and less wheat for export as t!me
went on.
The reason given was the strong
competition offered by Canada ana
the Argentine. both of which
countries sell cheaper and offer a
better grade OF -four.
In the States the best grades Of
-four are kept for home use.
Canadas home demand Is small
A still more striking figure Is
given by the Department OF AGri-
culture, which calls attention to tho
fact that the United Kingdom to
which the United States furnished
80 per cent Of the imported wheat
and -four twenty years ago, now
takes only Q per cent Of her needs
from American farmers.

- opened the way Tor war or
the sexes?
Are women as voters going to be
animated by primal sex antagonisms
and thus upset everything as we
know It today for some strange new
order Of life?
Thomas r. Marshall, former Vice
President OF the United States, sees
some such spectre and Is apparently
very much frightened about it.
The National Womap's Party
proposes an intensive campaign to
elect 100 women TO the House Of
Representatives. he says in a re-
cent article. 1T would perhaps be
untrue to say that this is wholly a
question Of sex, and yet what else
Is 1t? II is not movement to elect
the most competent candidate in
eacr district. 1t is not based on a
theory that a woman is better fitted
for public service than a man. II
seems to be a movement to elect
women because they are women.
Infinitely Worse"
but society has had enough trou-
BILE over the sexes in other than po-
litical relations, Bad as is the state
of politics always. it will be infinite
ly worse if We begin to divide the
voters of America into male and fe-
male"
Meanwhile, the National Woman's
e.
joys a little. plying mirth directed
at the gentleman, and then proceeds
to explain away his fears.
In the first place, the party is cam
paigning to elect five women TO
Congress, not a hundred, they point
out Five Pennsylvania women
have been nominated in various dis
tricts, and all five are members Of
the National Woman's party, as we'll
al of the political parties which
selected them
Our object in this fight is not to
back women just because they are
women, but to back women Of our
party who are qualified to sit in
Congress, and who will support the
proposed equal rights amendment
and a general feminist program"
says Elsie Hill chairman Of the
National Council Of the Woman's
party.
Want Fighting Program
This is necessary because while
there are men in Congress who will
second our efforts to secure eco.
nomic as well as political equality
for women, there are none who will
Initiate a fighting program along
these lines. Labor often secures
help from Congressman elected on
other issues. but 1t must have it's
own leaders in office to initiate its
own programs.
Women naturally have to bear
the brunt Of the equal rights cam
paign. Men have never had to suf-
fer the inequalities imposed by law,
and cannot feel the injustice of it
deeply enough within them to make
them long to fight.
Mr.. Marshall has often stood for
Democrats for office not because he
bGiACFCN NilCy WNI AilOlC ADGlCil
than their Republican opponents
nor better fitted than they for pub
lie service. but because he believed
in the issues for which they stood.
1t is exactly this reason which
causes us to support the five women
members Of our own party.
I'VE believe we are not selfish in
issue. It underlies all other political
and economic ills. and when the i'm
mediate issues of our day are all set
tied, others like them will have
arisen unless the underlying cause
is remedied. Our program does not
affect women only. but all human
ity."

Is copper sulphate ever used as
n boiler compound in steam
boilers?
The United States Bureau of
Standards says It knows of no
reference to such use. They believe
it would be Objectionable. Copper
sulphate In solution is distinctly
acid The use Of an acid in a steam
boiler is hazardous since corrosion
might easily result. The use Of a
copper salt would tend to stimu-
late corrosion owing to the plating
out of copper on the iron surfaces.
How can remove iron and
china glue from plate glass?
1t is impossible to recommend
definite methods without knowing
something Of the nature Of the glue.
If the glue is not loosened after
prolonged soaking with warm
water, try an organic solvent such
as benzene or gasoline. A cleaning
solution made by dissolving potas-
SUM dichromate in concentrated
sulphuric acid will attack most or
ganic' matter. Care must be taken
in handling this as it will burn the
skin and clothing. A solution of
washing soda may also be helpful.
An abrasive material such as the
securing powders on the market
might also be effective.
What is the name of the IA
nous old tree located at Oaxaca,
Mexico, and how old is it?
"Arbol Del Pule." Its age is I'M
certain, but is said to be about one
thousand years.
What Is senatorial courtesy?"
This term is used to define the
custom Of extending certain cour-
tesies to one another in the Senate,
especially that of deferring to the
wishes of the Senators from a State
with reference to the confirmation of
nominations from that State.
Are white and piebald horses
more subject to infections and
other diseases than brown or other

it is foul because it was interfered

it is a fair hit ball and a block ball.

remain at their stations. For example:
During the yellow fever epidemic in

their families left their charges.
The priests and sisters remained and
many died in administering to the
