FINE TRADE SEEN
FOR REST OF YEAR
Exports and Imports Held
Certain to Remain at
High Rate.
By j. G. ROYLE.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, June 25-Manufac-
turers and exporters here are opti-
mistic as to the probabilities for
foreign trade throughout the last
half of 1925. That trade is not going
to be sided they realize.
Already the slowly improving
nations of Europe are beginning to
start the flow of their goods to
American markets, Belgian brick is
now coming into New York. Phila
delphia and other ports. German
steel is coming steadily into Calves

French cast iron pipe is competing

products and English textiles are

running a a splendid rate and busi-
by the decla ration by President John
A. Farrell of the United States Steel
Corpora ton at the National Foreign
Trade convention in Seattle that this

above previous records.
There is no question that political
disturbances and upheavalS in China
have had some effect on the trade with
the Orient, but the belief that such
factors are merely temporary is shown
by the remarkable recent develop
ments in transpacific shipping, which

Japan Anxious for Trade.
T.. Shibagski, an official Of Nit
sui Co.. bankers and world traders,
IN a statement received by telegraph
today declared that he looks with in
terest and favor on the development
of the foreign trade of the United
States.
The United States" he said. 'is the
chief foreign source of supply Of
Japan" The United States is also
Japan's largest customer. Eighty per
cent OF the structural material used
IN Japan comes from the United
States. Nearly 80 per cent of Japan S
automobiles come from America.
Japan and the United States are not
trade competitors. Forty-one per cent
of Japan's exports consists of raw silk
and ninety per cent of this amount Is
sold in the United States. A fourth
of all the silk produced in Japan is
consumed in the United States. which
uses also third of all Japanese pot
terry and 80 per cent of its tea.
Urges Closest Relations.
Japan imports last year totaled
about $1,000, 100000. OF that amount
the United States sold us twice as
much as any other nation. 1t be-
hooves the business men of each ma
ton, therefore, to see that no factor
arises to destroy the good relations
between us
For the first five months of this
year, up to June l. the total exports
of the United States totaled So 2,039,- :
100000, as compared with S1,783,700,-
600 for the corresponding period of
1924. In the same period imports for
this year aggregated 81 ,642. 100, 900 as
compared with s1,576 100000 in 1924
This gives a total value of foreign
trade Of s3,6S1. 100000 and a splendid
balance Of trade in favor of this coun-
try.

THING 5 UNU SUAI,
THE YERKES OBSERVATORY
By T. T. MAXEY
'4. Western Newspaper UnionD

To avoid the fine and numerous naturally hover in the air over a big city and cut down the effectiveness of the observations, the jarring-even though minute-which upsets the cal culations of the observers, and the disturbing reflections from the night illumination, powerful telescopes are usually stationed at points where these conditions do not have to be reckoned with.
 Accordingly, the great Yerkes ob- servatory (connected with the Uni versity of Chicago)-one of the great est of all the astronomical labora- tories on earth, is perched upon the crest of bluff above beautiful Lake Geneva, near the town of Williams Bay, Ws.-about seventy miles north west of Chicago.
 In the largest of the three domes which surmount the observatory is mounted the worlds largest refracting telescope, It Is also the busiest tele- scope, being In use both day and night the year round weather condi, tons permitting.
 In the center of this dome, which Is 1b-feet in diameter on the inside. bal anced across the great pier which rests upon a solid foundation of con. crete and supports the weight, is the barrel of this tremendous instrument. It Is 62 feet long and weighs about 12,OOO pounds. Each of the two great lenses which fit inside of this barrel are forty inches across.
 The barrel of this instrument can be swung around in any direction 7and raised or lowered to any angle; the floor of the dome Is movable and the entire roof of the dome reyolves-all to the end that the observer can ob- serve in any direction and at any angle necessary in order to properly perform the particular job in hand. After the barrel has been focused 1t can be adjusted to follow and keep in view the object under observation, re- lieving the observer of having to stop occasionally and focus his telescope. Adjustment as small as one-one-hun- dredth of an inch can be made. r With this telescope observers have been enabled to determine, with great exactness, the positions of stars In clusters and the distances between them. Stellar photographs taken, using the telescope as a camera. are among the best yet secured. The brightness of stars also is measurable with this instrument.

INDIANA SAND DUNES

Indiana rubs elbows with Lake Michigan. On the border line the pro- longed. incessant and combined labor ings of such artistic clements as gla- ciers, water, wind and sun have pro- duced the most scenically- fam ous stretch of landscape in the Hoosier state-a land remote, as 1t were. yet within few hours ride of the homes of some five million people, a Nature made park of strange formations un- like any other in our broad land.
 A dune Is a hill or ridge of sand which has been piled up by the wind. Here, the unbelievably large quanti- ties of sand-the plaything of the wind-have been blown and whirled into countless forms and shapes-hills, mounds, peaks, domes and ridges in wave-like array-sOme approximately POO feet. high.
 Due to the antics of the wind, the architecture of the dune region Is constantly changing. Sometimes charges occur with surprising rapidity and sometimes with logged slowness. There are two kinds of dunes-live and dead. Live dunes travel, dead dunes are motionless, although their shape may change.
 Live dunes overtake and sometimes completely cover up trees, buildings and other objects which are In their path-the sand-submerged object com ing out from under the other side of the dune as 1t moves on. Dead dune, usually become such because of q foli' age growth which binds the sand and prevents disturbance. Thus Nature produces a parado1ical situation in that the dead dunes are those on which the foliage fourishes, whereas the live dunes are devoid of plant life. This dune" region is rich in Indian lore Mounds built by the so-called Mound Builders centuries ago are oc- casionally met with. It was also the haunt of the red men and the pioneers Some of their trails can still be traced. The beauty of the flowers has made the region famous. AZ if a meeting place for flowerdom, the sassafras from the South, the trailing arbutus from the North, the beach pea from the East and the cactus from the West meet here on common ground.
 Animal life is rather abundant Opossum and raccoon inhabit the woods. Mink are found in the streams. Muskrat, skunk, squirrel and rabbit also live here. The variety of bird life is also surprising and said to be the equal of that of any place in America
