Tho National neographio society to day gave out tho following slnteinept concerning internalioual commerce in Hurope nnd tho bearing that the Hos- phoniH nud the winter went her him ou it: "The Kuropeau war has remade the commerce of every trading nation in tho world, hut it has effected no greater changes anywhere than thoio which have taken place in 1iwiii. When Turkey plunged into the strug gle, HusMti, like Germany, practically found herself without a port, Hut there wiih no neutral Holland or neu tral Switzerland nnd Denmark across the great international trade route of tho Muscovite. Germany's port ate. closed, a nrv Rutin's, but it i still doing some selling to the tmlside world, becnuso Danish, Dutch and Swiss centers find it profitable to handle its good. Ioekeil Out of Kuropo "Germany, AiHtriit-Ilungaiy nnd the Ottoman empire shut Huiuu good completely out of Europe, tier many controls thu Baltic, sra nud Turkey locks th Hlnck sea at the Hospboni. The thousands of tons of golden butter thnt formerly poured into Germany, France and Great Hi it niu from Finland nnd from the won derful butter provinces of Siberia, have ceased to flow. Thousands of tons of Russian beet sugar that sold into Persia and Turkey, reports an nounce, must bo this year' absorbed by the Russian mnrkcts on account of the war hazards of the lllack sea. Likewise, tho Persian nnd Levantine markets for Russian cloth have ceased. "Hundreds of shipload of Russian wheat, which formerly left Odessa for all the Hrts of Hurope have now no outlet. Husxinn furs, of which cuor- mniiH ipiautitics were annually placed upon tho world s greatest fur mar .ket, Loudon nud Leipsic, reach the outside world now only in smnll lot through Siberia. The gnat petrol eum stores of Itaku cannot be shipped for sale to Russia's tdlio. And her other agricultural, mineral and for est products urc war-liiimid. Only VIiulHostol U-ft "There remains open for tin for eign trade of HiiNsia practically only YlndivoMok, and the freight charge to and from this far port severely limit the amount of trans-Siberian business that can bo profitably done. Somo trade may flow through Hoii maiiiu. However, none of Russia's great trade routes run this way, and facilities for the carrying out of a large import and export business here are lacking. With Ilulgnria in the war this way will he scaled. "Nevertheless, a port toward Hur ope will open for the HussiaiiK some weeks hence, and its opening may bear important results for the strug gling Russians. This port is Arch angel, a great harbor for ore and fishing vessels through its scant summer, whence innumerable smaller boats curry tloir cargoes around North Cape, down the Norwegian coasts, to European markets. It is probable that witli tho opening of this port much of Hussiu's butter, poultry, grains, sugar and other agricultural products will be released to the friendly marts of Kuropo, and that ;nuch-nccded manufactures will flow in this way." iillllllllllllllllllllllllllilllllllllllllllllllllll 'i m w m For extra good cooking always use Cottolonc For WijcultB, pio-crust, cakoa and doughnuts, nnd for frying, Cot tolonc is supremo, because It lit tho purest cooking fat nnd pos sesses Important food values.
