EIGHT HUNDRED MILLION,
American Farmers Draw From For
eiSn Countries.

Washington, June l3-The farmers Of
the country are drawing upon other parts
OF the world for more money in the fiscal
year which ends with this month than in
any preceding year in the history of the
country. Even the high water mark of
1892, when our exports of agricultural
products amounted to S799, ,32S ,232, will
be surpassed by the record of the year
which closes with this month The pre-
liminary reports of May expectations
which have reached the bureau of sta
tistics make it quite apparent that the
agricultural exports of the year will be
considerably in excess Of $500 ,OOO,0 600, the
total for the year being likely to reach
$685., ,OOO,O Never before have the ex-
ports of agricultural products reached the
SSOO,OOO,O 900 line and never but twice
have they been as much as $70O,0OO 600
the two occasions being in 1881 and 1892
Compared with the last fiscal year the
increase in exports of agricultural pro
ducts will be fully $l50,0O00OO, and com
pared with the preceding year the III
crease will be over $3.50, 100000, while
the total will be fully 80 per cent in ex,
cess of that of the fiscal year of 1895.

other will be in the Washington state

doned the idea owing to lack of time but
