sum Of s149, 9,155,617. These figures do not
and silver; in the precious metals we re-
ceived more than q million dollars above
our shipments,
This Is short and very favorable view
Of our trade with foreign countries for one
year, and the most notable point Is that,
while our exports have increased some two
million dollars since 1884, our imports
have fallen of nearly ten millions. IL
seems 10 show that we are becoming more
and more independent Of foreign farmers
and manufacturers, while foreign countries
are finding II more and more TO their inter
est to buy Of us those products they must
purchase abroad.
The part the farmer plays In our foreign
commerce is a matter worthy OF note. For
several years past agricultural productions
have averaged about 20 per cent OF the
total domestic exports, and last year
amounted to S546,244,785 OF this sum,
S127,00O,O00 came from animals afnl their
products, and s160, ,000, 900 from breadstuffs;
$2S7, zoo, 900 worth Of bread and meat sent
abroad to feed the nations. Cotton was
represented by S205, 1000, 900, ,-and all other
miscellaneous products amounted TO s54,-
000,000. The past twenty years have seen
marked changes in these relative proper
tions. In 1860 cotton alone was 20 per cent.
Of all agricultural exports; this proportion
has gradually decreased, and in 1873 bread
stuffs alone exceeded IL, and now II repre-
sents but 81 per cent, though its total
value has greatly increased
OF our total imports, 43 per cent was
made up Of raw or nearly raw products OF
agriculture, the total value being about
S246, 1000 600. This is large amount for us
to purchase from foreign farmers, but very
much Of II is made up Of articles which, on
account Of climatic conditions, we cannot
produce. Teas, coffees, and cocoa cost us
| $62, 100000, or little more than one-fourth
Of the whole. Sugar and molasses amounted
to $40, ,000, 900, large proportion Of which
ought to be proltably produced at home.
| This makes our beverages and sweetenlngs
cost us some Sl8s, 100000, or about $24
per head for every man, woman and child
Of our population. For animals and animal
products we pay S43,00O,000, and for all
other farm products, including spices, fruits,
and miscellaneous articles, $63, 100000.
The importance OF our agricultural in
terests can perhaps in no way be more
clearly set forth than by these official fig
| ures, showing, as they do, that the farmer
furnishes three-fourth Of our exports; YET
this vast sum represents LESS than 10 pei
cent. Of the total production, nine-tenth'
going to supply the home markets.
