TOYMAKING IN GERMANY.
The Industry Has Been Unusually
Prosperous of Late.

Nearly all the toys in the world are
made in Germany. According to Con-
sular Warner at Leipzig, the toymak-
ing industry of that country has been
unusually prosperous during the past
few years. North and South America,
England, Cape Colony British East
India, East Asia and Australia are the
principal buyers of German toys, and
the demand seems to be increasing
from year to year. The United States
and Great Britain are by far the largest
purchasers. The shipments to those
countries in 1900 exceeded those of any
previous year. Great Britain has
bought over 1000 tons annually dur
ing the past few years, and since 1895
has increased her purchases over 1000
tons annually. The United States
bought 6,195 tons of toys from Germany
in 1895 and 9,612 tons in 1900, an in
crease of more than one-third.
The German toy manufacturers re-
gard this increase as remarkable in
view of the fact that few years ago
States to prejudice the public against
the purchase of German toys by cir
culating a report that the paint used
in their manufacture contained ingre-
dents dangerous to health. The man
ufacturers say that this agitation
caused a decrease in the imports of
German toys for a time, but the re-
port having proved to be chimerical the
toys have again found increased favor
in the United States. The exports to
the United States increased in value
from So, AIS, 200 in 1899 to about $3,S08, 900
in 1900, while the exports to Great Brit
ain increased from $3,S0S000 in 1899 to
%,760,000 in 1900. France was also
large importer of German toys, stand
ing third in the list of countries pur-
chasing such articles from Germany.
