most of them were of feminine

very much to be desired. The ground

H
IOH Tension Electric Lines are
very numerous and run Into all
parta of the country so tt Is fair
to auppou that the rural population
ts pretty generally served. All the
xnore so sine no one lives In Isolated
farm homes. Every farm family lives
in a town adjacent to his fields and
It her walks or rides to his or her
work. And that Is the reason that
tens of thousands of bicycles are
made and sold in Europe each year.
The use of power, other than
human. In agriculture seems to be
confined largely to plowing with oxen
and even that power Is not often
seen. It Is a problem of hoeing large
ly. I have seen one small tractor on a
Mccormick reaper and a small pas
senger car attached to a rake In a
hay field.
There are many cows and we have
seen no shortage of dairy products,
It ho we have been told that there
ia a large export of butter and cheese
made up at the expense of the local
population.
FLOWER Gardens outside the cltUa
are very different from anything
we have. Usually they are about the
size of a city lot and bealda the
flowers and plants hare a garden
house about 0 feet square with tiny
porch and a flag pole from which
flutters the swastika flag. It is Just

TRAIN and Plane service Is good,
reliable, frequent and fast. There
are always two classes snd frequently
a first class. All take different rates
and accomodations. The peasant re
main pretty close to his soil but all
others hare to travel. They go In
groups tn trains, in small motors, or
bicycles and on foot. The ministry
f education sees to It that the
school children visit German spots of

WASHINGTON, July 33. (AP)
Foreign trade experts of the agri
culture department said today It
was doubtful whether overseas ship
ments of American wheat during
the next 13 months would be as
large ns during the past two seasons.
Competition for the Indicated
small volume of trade would be
keen, thereby making It difficult
for this country to expand Its ex
ports, the bureau of agricultural
economics reported.
It listed severat factors as Indi
cating world trade would be smaller.
They were: prospects for a world
crop of 4,200,000.000 bushels, or the
largest on record; imposition of new
import restrictions by several Euro
pean nations; prospects for larger
shipments from Russia; disturbed
business conditions, and Increased
use of wheat flour substitutes.
