Agricultural ImpIements.
Another instance Of the same kind was
seen in a big pioW manufacturing firm.
The Cubans were as slow to buy plows as
they had been to buy sugar machinery,

partly because the old pronged stick does
pretty well for the soil which is turned
over so easily. A good many times 1 have
heard the representatives of the plow

the knowledge that when the cane matur-
ed means existed for grinding 1t. The
same reason that kept the imports or
machinery down have operated against
heavy importatious of barb wire. Barb
wire is the most useful fencing on the ls-
land but 1t was not one OF the immediate
necessities, and the planters found It more
profitable to plant cane without much re-
gard to their fences.
The publicity given to the hope of the
Cuban commission that some pledges OF
commercial concessions may be secured to
the United States has brought out q re-
newal of the grievance about the falling
off in exports from the United States to
Cuba. There is little probability that this
falling off Will CEASE at once. Local causes
account for part of st, and notwithstanding
the self-complacenCy OF the American busl-
ness man. he can hardly explain the re-
mainder except through his own negligence
In spite Of the reiterated official state
ments about the necessity of adapting
American goods to the West Indian mar
kets, a large number Of manufacturers in
the United States have insisted on believ-
ing that the trademark was enough. To
this class 1t seems useless to explain that
the patronizing habit Is not sufficient to
induce the inhabitants OF Cuba or else
where to buy American goods. Undoubted-
ly the manufacturer In the United states
does them @ favor in letting them have
the chance to buy his products on his own
terms but so long as they refuse to look
upon 1t as a favor the sales will not be
made. Local trade customs must be fol-
lowed and goods must be adapted to the
local needs.
Not As Smart rs Other People.
1t hurts the vanity of Americans to be
told that when it comes to getting business
in other countries they are not the smart
est people on earth, yet In Cuba, at least,
they have not shown themselves as smart
as the Englshmen. the Frenchmen and
the Germans. 1t Is true that Spain has
lost her trade in Cuba. in spite OF the des-
perate efforts of her merchants to keep It.
but q good bit of this trade vas Spanish
only in name. Much Of the business that
was done through Barcelona was really
from Germany, England or France. The
change in political relations made 1t no
longer necessary to follow this method, and
that is one of the explanations of the In
crease in Cuba's trade with European
countries, other than Spain. aS compared
with the United States, but the governing
reason has been the greater enterprise and
intelligence of the German. French and
English traders Their consular represent
atiyeS have worked INCREASINGLY and SyS-
tematically to get all the Cuban trade pos
ssble now, and the European exporters
have known how to utilize this official CO.
operation. Then they had given It their
own close personal attention. During one
week In Havana j met half dozen En-
glish drummers- who heretofore had con-
fined themselves to the British West In
dies Now they were after the Cuban
business, and they had the patience and
perseverance which have been so lacking to
the American firms seeking new markets
in Cuba.

patience and the indifference to local trade
conditions have been universal on the part
