FOREIGN TRADE TEN MONTHS Advance figures for October indicate that the Republican tariff law continues to be anything but a "Chinese Wall" to keep out imports. Comparing the ten months of 1922 with the same period for the current year it will be seen that imports under the Fordney-McCumber law increased from $2,527,000,000 to $3,212,500,000 or 27 per cent. A specious free trade argument is that the present tariff prevents goods. These imports increased from $800,000,000 to $971,000,000 the two periods compared. Of course the bulk of these imports consist of manufactured goods. The bulk of our imports from South America consists of crude materials for fabrication in our mills with also a large list of non-competing products such as bananas, coffee, chocolate, etc., etc., and by far the greater portion of our imports from Asia consist of crude materials such as raw silk, tin, rubber, jute, etc., etc. Increases in such imports are sure indications of active mills and fully employed labor, and we find they increase from South America from 280 to 395 millions and from Asia, 672 to 857 millions of dollars. Thirty-seven per cent of the total imports consisted of crude materials for use in manufacturing, which increased $216,000,000 over the ten months of 1922; nineteen per cent were manufactures for further use in manufacturing, which increased $78,000,000. It will thus be noted that 56 per cent, or more than half the imports, were for our own mills, which is splendid evidence of the fact that industry has been humming under the new tariff law. LIME NEEDED BY POULTRY Provision for an adequate supply of lime in the ration should be made by poultry raisers, for if this important mineral element is lacking in the food drain is made on the reserve supply in the bones and soft tissues of the animals which interferes materially with egg production in mature hens and in the proper development of the growing chicks. Feeding experiments with poultry conducted over a number of years at the New York agricultural experiment station in which an effort was made to substitute other mineral elements for calcium in the ration, notably magnesium which occurs in such abundant animal tissues, other minerals with calcium and lacking in the body will be the lime stored muscles of the animal also in accord with lime and phosphate taken from the body than from the animal. Many rations present codition calcium or lime. Thirty-seven per cent of the total imports consisted of crude materials for use in manufacturing, which increased $216,000,000 over the ten months of 1922; nineteen per cent were manufactures for further use in manufacturing, which increased $78,000,000. It will thus be noted that 56 per cent, or more than half the imports, were for our own mills, which is splendid evidence of the fact that industry has been humming under the new tariff law. Nine per cent of the imports consisted of crude food stuffs and 15 per cent of manufactured food stuffs, the aggregate increase being about $158,000,000. Of course the bulk of these food products were non-competitive—bananas, coffee, tea, chocolate, spices, cocoanut products, etc., etc. Twenty per cent of the imports consisted of fully manufactured goods, which increased from $552,000 to $641,000,000, illustrating how unfair is the repeated assertion of those opposed to the tariff law that it is keeping the factory output of Europe and the Orient out of the American market. This represents an average increase of $9,000,000 a month, which expressed in German marks, Italian lirs, French francs, and Japanese yen means a tremendous amount of foreign goods in these days of depreciated foreign currencies. The export side shows a gradual improvement in sales abroad. They totaled $366,000,000 in October 1922 and $394,000,000 in October of this year. The ten months period shows an increase from $3,107,000,000 to $3,341,000,000. It may interest the Democratic Party to know that exports for October, 1923, were the highest since February, 1921, when they relinquished all control of the Government, the next highest month being September, 1923, with $381,000,000. The exports show an increase of $137,000,000 in crude materials, a decrease of $183,000,000 in food stuffs, due mainly to increased food production in Europe, and increase of $96,000,000 in partly manufactured goods and $176,000,000 in manufactures ready for consumption. Re-exports increased over $9,000,000. The record of the past two months gives good assurance that export trade is on the up-grade and that imports are not being seriously hampered by duty rates. The tariff as a campaign topic for Democratic votes is as full of stickera as a porcupine, and the party captained by Cordell Hull is glad to get away from it. 000,000 in partly manufactured goods and $176,000,000 in manufactures ready for consumption.

ANAHEIM GAZETTE TRY supply of made by important the food the supply of the materially hens out of the poultry years at experiment made to meents for magnesium which occurs so generally with calcium in nature and which is found in such abundance in many plant and animal tissues, demonstrated that other minerals will not take the place of calcium and that if this element is lacking in the food the demands of the body will be met by drawing on the lime stored up in the bones and muscles of the fowl. Results were also in accord with the idea that other lime and phosphorous are more easily taken from the bones of the living animal than from dead bone ash fed to the animal. Many rations fed to poultry under present coditions contain much less calcium or lime than is required by the body, it is said. Poultrymen are advised to meet this demand by adding lime to the ration in the form of oyster shell or other inorganic lime compounds for mature birds and in the form of vegetable foods rich in lime for growing chicks, such as young clover, alfalfa, etc. When an able-bodied man "retires," he should make his will immediately, buy his cemetery lot and start the masons at work inscribing his tombstone.
