don't forget the j .OHG DISTANCE TELEPHONE CORN FOR GERMANY. PLANS TO SEND OUR SURPLUS PROD UCT TO EUROPE. i It Would Displace Rye Flour—Europe a Promising Field For an Experiment. With Little Expense the Export Trade Could Be Greatly Increased. Mr. William Stuede, an export grain buyer of St. Louis, is a firm believer in American corn. He regards it as a food staple next in importance to wheat and is of the opinion that its introduction in Europe could be accomplished with but comparatively little effort or ex pense on the part of the United States government. He talked entertainingly on the subject recently. This is what he said: “With the tremendous corn crop in the United States this year and the big surplus left over from last year’s crop it seems to me that the price of corn is bound to drop fully 4 cents as soon as the market regulates itself. This sea son’s yield was about 1,750,000,000 bushels, and fully 1,000,000,000 bushels were left over from last year. “Even if Europe would take 100,000,- 000 bushels it would leave more corn in America than we can possibly use, and according to the immutable law of sup ply and demand prices are certain to decline. The market has held up re markably well thus far owing to the immense increase in the demand mestic use and the fact that the crop is somewhat smaller than that of last yeai or even than the average crop, yet the country has too much corn—a condition that is bound to cause a decline in the market. “Since the United States is able to produce such vast quantities of corn it wsuld certainly be a wise move on the part of the government if the agricul tural department or some other branch at Washington would take some steps to secure the introduction of corn prod ucts in Germany and other European countries as a means of increasing the foreign demand for this great food prod uct. It could be done through the dis tribution of pamphlets or books dealing with the various corn products and the best methods of preparing theln for the table, and with comparatively little ex , pense the export trade in corn could be enormously increased. “Germany, with a population of 51,000,000 people, is a rye consuming country. Corn is cheaper, and with a little exertion America could supplant rye with corn within a comparatively short time. Suppose, for instance, the government were to start with the Ger man army and secure the adoption of certain corn products for its consump tion. Within the two years for which every ablebodied man in Germany has to serve he would become accustomed to eating corn food, and When he went home he would continue its use in his family. lam of the opinion that this could be done without much expense or trouble to our governmi nt and within two years at, the outside a steady de mapd for American corn wotjld be es- EVERY FAMILY SHOULD KNOW THAT p 3 rwnarkaMff remedy, both for IN* EXTERNAL use, and won» derfal ia its quick action to relieve distress, Ha sure cure for Sora **‘l***'l Throat.

The reason was that the Germans do not know how to prepare corn products for the table, and many of them are of the opinion that corn is only fit for teed for stock. “In addition to securing the introduc tion of corn products for the use of the army the wholesale distribution of pamphlets giving recipes for cooking cornstarch, cornmeal, corn flour and the thousand and one good things man ufactured from corn, or even the open ing. of cooking schools devoted to that t end. would certainly prove a paying in vestment to America within a compara tively short time. “Four years ago I returned to Ger many on a visit and found that the Ger mans had learned the use of a few corn products, but even corn flour they mixed with wheat and rye flour. It has only been in recent years that they have begun to eat roasting ears, and even that has not yet become a general cus tom. If they could be taught the many delicious dishes they can get out of American corn the demand for it from that quarter would become a vast source of revenue to America. ‘ ‘ What 1 say of Germany applies to Austria, parts of Russia and in fact all of the surrounding country. It is a ques tion that is Mell worth a little investi gation on the part of this government, and one in which every farmer and merchant in the country is directly in terested. ” —St. Louis Republic.

London, Oct. 23. —The Geater New York election amenities are followed here with considerable interest, espe cially the presentation of Mr. Richard Croker as a crouie of the Prince of Wales. The London Figaro on the sub ject says: "The impudence of the New York politicians is laughable to those who know the extent of the Prince of Wales’ acquaintance with the Tammany chief. Wnen Croker brought his racehorses here, he was introduced to Wales in the character of a great supporter of the turf. Immediately, however, the run ning of the American horses fell under suspicion and Croker was dropped from the royal circle like a hot potato. As it was, Croker never progressed further in intimacy with the Prince of Wales than on one occasion to offer him a light for his cigar.” Dug Her Grave tof Save Time.

TUESDAY OCTOBER 26, THE CARIBBEAN, Captain Mahan on the Strategic Impor tance of the Land Girt Sea. Causes superficially very diverse, but essentially the same in that they arose from and still depend upon a lack of lo cal political capacity, have brought the Mediterranean and the Caribbean, in our own time, to similar conditions, re garded as quantities of interest in the sphere of international relations. What ever the intrinsic value of the two bod ies of water, in themselves or in their surroundings, whatever their present contributions to the prosperity or to the culture of mankind, their conspicuous characteristics now are their political and military importance, in the broad est sense, as concerning not only the countries that border them, but the world at large. Both are land girt seas; both are links in a chain of communica tion between an east and a west. In both the chain is broken by an isthmus. Both are of contracted extent when compared with great oceans, and in consequence of these common features both present in an intensified form the advantages and the limitations, politi cal and military, which condition the influence of sea power. This conclusion is notably true of the Mediterranean, as is shown by its his tory. It is even more forcibly true of the Caribbean, partly because the con tour of its shores does not, as in the Mediterranean peninsulas, thrust the power of the land so far and so sustain edly into the sea; partly because, from historical antecedents already alluded to, in the character of the first colo nists and from the shortness of the time the ground has been in civilized occupation, there does not exist in the Caribbean or in the gulf of Mexico— apart from the United States—any land power at all comparable to those great continental states of Europe 'whose strength lies in their armies far more than in their navies. So far as national inclinations, as dis tinct from the cautious actions of states man, can be discerned, in the Mediter ranean at present the sea powers, Great Britain, France and Italy, are opposed to the land powers, Germany, Austria and Russia, and the latter dominate ac tion. It cannot be so in any near future in the Caribbean. The Caribbean is pre eminently the domain of sea power.— Captain A. T. Malian, U. S. N., in Harper’s Magazine. * ondensed Testimony Chas, B.
