tensive trade in the products Of agricul-

The farmers benefit from commercial
expansion. however is not measured
merely by the larger sale of his own prod
ucts abroad He profits nearly as much
from the growing expectation of manu-
featured wares. The Increased production
OF MANUFACTURES In the United States to
meet the requirements of a broadening
export trade naturally creates a larger
homo demand for the products of the
farm. Every additional pound OF cotton
cloth sent to Asia means a better mar
ket at home for our raw cotton; every ad-
ditional pair OF shoes sold abroad means
a better market here for hides of cattle;
and so on through the long list of agri-
cultural products that form the materials
OF manufacture. Then. too. all the various
Industries that are extended to meet a
growing export demand require additional
workmen and these workmen must be fed
from the produce Of the farm Thus the
American farmer finds that the policy Of
comm ercial expansion results to his great
advantage In the home market, as well
as in the foreign market"
