der consideration. This period would afford opportunity to ascertain the nation's fupplies and allow the allies and neutrals to prepare a program of their requirements.

Attitude Toward Neutrals. The president's proclamation says: "It is obviously the duty of the United States in liberating any surplus products over and above our domestic needs to consider first the necessities of all the nations engaged in war against the central empires. As to neutral nations, however, we also recognize our duty. The government does not wish to hamper them. On the contrary it wishes and intends, by all fair and equitable means, to co-operate with them in their difficult task of adding from our available surpluses to their own domestic supply and of meeting their pressing necessities or defioits. In considering the deficits of food supplies, the government means only to fulfill its obvious obligation to assure itself that neutrals are husbanding their own resources and that our supplies will not become available, either directly or indirectly, to feed the enemy."

The method of procedure in obtaining licenses for export was outlined by Secretary Redfleld, who will administer the act, as follows:

License Applications.

"First, applications for licenses may be made by the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce, division of export licenses, 1435 K street, Washington, D. C., 6r to any of the branches of the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce—New York, Boston, Chicago, St. Louis, New Orleans, San Francisco and Seattle. "Second, in applying for a license to export any of the commodities covered by the president's proclamation, applicants should give the following information in. triplicate form: (a), quality (b), description of goods '(c), names'and address of consignee (d), name and address of consignor. "Third, the license will be good for only sixty days and at the expiration of that time, must be renewed. And if not shipped within that time, a new application must be made. "Fourth, the various branch officers of the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce have been given full instructions as to the disposition of all applications for licenses."

elsewhere moisture is sufficient or in excess. Cultivation is fair to good in most states, though in some sections excess moisture has interfered. Tern- i peratures were rather too cool earlier but during the latter part of June they have been very favorable. "The corn crop now promised, 8,124,000,000 bushels, is greater by a slight majority than the largest previous crop. The crop is slightly below the ten-year average condition due to its lateness. "Tbe stands of winter wheat, especially* whore thinned b£ winter killing, have thickened up surprisingly and the heads are in almost all sections heavy. The growth during the month has made an improvement representing a gain of 29.000,00ft bushels, this being far in excess of what was expected or ordinarily experienced. The improvement was general with the exception of a few states. Practically no insect damage is reported and the plants are healthy. Early harvested grain in the southwest has turned out better than anticipated. "S- ring wheat has declined in condition materially owing to frost and dryness in North Dakota and unfavorable conditions in some of the western states. The condition of the winter find spring wheat crop combined, gives prom'se rt a yield greater by 22,000,000 bushels than was anticipated last month."

But the great glory of the Chickering is its tone. As in the instance of the youth who asked the eminent vocal instructor the three most essential requirements for a singer, and received the reply "voice, voice, voice"—so with the piano they are tone—tone—tone. Tone is the pianoforte quality Americana demand, and the Chickering affords it in abundant measure—1 the most beautiful tone ever developed in a pianoforte. V
