Assistant Postmas ter General Biliany has officially ex Exports of corn from the United States in the calendar year 1922 made a new high record when considered by the number of dollars which they brought to the American farmer. The Trade Record of the National Gity Bank of New York has issued figures showing that for the first time in the history of our exports, the value of the corn exported crossed the hun dred million dollar line. For the year ending with December. 1922, the value was $11h097,000 agpinst a former high record of $92,767,000 In the calendar year 1921. If we add to this the $7,000,000 worth of corn meal and other foodstuffs prepared tiom com. the $8,000,000 Worth of enrn starch, tha ^OUMOO worth of corn syrup sometimes designated as “glucose." the half million dollars worth of corn sugar and tbe half mil- 'ion dollars worth ot corn oil and «tike, the 1922 exports of the products nf our corn fields would total near!) $160,000,000. Tbe value of American corn exported during the last decade aggregates considerably more than a halt billfon dollars, an average of about $50,000,000 a year, while the 1922 total, ps already ind'eated. ex teeds $100,000,000. and if we add the corn "by products” the total will ap proximate $150,000,000 This increase of $23,000,000 in the \alue of our corn exports In the cal endar year 1922. wnen compared with the lormef high recoid year, occurs chiefly in movements to Europe.

That, at least, is the opinion, of Lord Carnarvon. The “Ushabti.” or "Answerer. 4 *] shpwing the defunct monarch in the guise of Osiris, was customarily placed in royal tombs with an in scriptjgn stating that the image war prepared to do any work imposed upon it. Then the tomb was sealed so tightly nobody could get to the "Ushabti.” and request it to dq something. Back in what Tutankhamen 'may, in his language, have referred to as the good old days of yore, the Phara oh. when he died, was accompanied to the underworld by a slave, sacra fleed during the royal 'iqiieral cere monies. In more "modern’’ timet the slave was allowed to live, and the “Ushabti’’ was substituted for him. This was done in the case of Tutankhamen. King Tutankamen took some of his money with him when be died, but it was gone and his purse, also, when the outpr chamber was opened by Howard Carter. The archaeologist^ 1 were qnitp sad about this, for they believe there is only one example of piicn a purge in existence.

The combined farm value of chickens rais ed and.eggs produced in 1922 is esti mated at $854,207j000, by the United States Department of Agriculture. The value In 1921 was $900.820,000. About 543,000,000 chickens were raised on farms in 1922, with a farm value fit $354,199,000, as compared with 510,000,000 chickens raised 'a mi veiged at-$8*2.258.000.

Of tbe chicken eggs produced in 1922, large quantities were consumed lit induatres in the manufacture ot other tlpn food products, and about 113.0004)00 dozen were used to pro duce chickens, the department says. The average farm price of chickens raised in 1922 was 66c per fowl, com pared with 71 cents In 1921, and with 86 l-2c In 1920.. The average farm ; price of chicken egg* was 25.6 cents | a dozen in 1922, compared with 29.2 cents per dozen in 1921 and with 44.4 cents in 1920.
