In furtherance of the plan to make its small in-
strument business more important, the Dugan Piano
Co.. New Orleans, La., is adding to the size of
the department. New and suitable fixtures are now
being installed in the new wareroom space added to

pose of John V. Dugan, president of the company,
to strive for the greatest possible business for the
goods.
AMERICAN TRADE.
The foreign trade of the United States for the
fiscal year ended June 30' broke all previous records,
both exports and imports attaining new high marks,
according to figures made public recently by the
department of commerce. But imports made a
greater increase than exports, compared with the
previous year, so that the net trade balance in favor
of this country was only $3,872,429,551, compared
with slightly more than $4,(X)0,000(X10 in the preced-
ing year. The value of exports was $8,111,176,131
and of imports $5,238,746,580.
