THE SEVENTH PORT.

There is much congratulatOry ref1ec-
ton for Brunswick in the statement
made by the Manufacturers Record
of the increase of foreign exports
from the various southern ports for
the fiscal year ending June 30 last.
"Two facts of large significance"
says the Record, ''are exhibited in the
statistics of the exports from the
country during the year ending June
80 last. The first fact is that never
before have the exports reached such
figures, and the second is that south
ern ports have dIstanced all others,
not only In the percentage of increase,
but in actual increase. The total in
crease for the country was from $751;
COG ,GSS to 81 ,021 ,9S7,O9l, or $3.50, $50, 1913,
The increase for the south was from
1921 1881 SOS to $3.50, O55, 2lO, or sos, 49,
6O2, which was 50 per cent. of the
whole"
Brunswick's increase in foreign ex-
ports alone, for 1897 over 1896, was
50, 162,6S5, or over % per cent. This,
of course, does not include the large
increase also recorded by Brunswick
in domestic exports and IN imports.
Taking the entire volume of shipping,
foreign and domestic,an the imports,
and comparing with the other south
ern ports, 1T will be found that Bruins
wick has, in one year, moved up from
the tenth port in shipping values to
the seventh, forging ahead of several
competitors and approaching quite
close to another.
1t is gratifying that the outlook IN
dicates continued advance, rather than
retrogression. The next reports will
show further strides forward.
