DEMAND FOR MANUFACTURES
Exports In This Line Exceed Agri-
cultural Products For the First
Time

cultural Products For the First
Time.
For the first time in the history of
the United States manufactures are
exceeding agricultural products in the
expectation of domestic products. Fig
urcs issued by the department of com
MERGE and labor through its bureau of
statistics show that in the mnnll of
July manufactures exported amounted
to $40O00,00 against $31Ouuu00 of
agricultural products, and i'll the month
of June manufactures amounted to
nearly $420o0,000 against $3i,25o000
Of agricultural products. In former
years agricultural products have great
~ exceeded manufactures in the eX-
ports of the country.
Even in the seven months ending
with July, 1901. agricultural products
exceeded manufactures by nearly $780,,
100000, but in the month of May, 1904.
manufactures for the first time in the
history of the country exceeded agri-
cultural products in the statement of
domestic exports, and this was again
the ease in June and in July. In the
month of May, 1904, exports of manu-
features exceeded agricultural prod
ucts by about $1,000000. In June the
excess of manufactures over agricul-
tural products was over S4,00O,000, and
in July the excess of manufactures
over agricultural products was nearly
S9,000,OO0 In the three months of
May, June and July, 1901, the total
value OF agricultural products exported
was $10G. 503, 1888, while the total value
of manufactures exported in the same
period was $40, 1897
1t is quite apparent, however that the
proportion which manufao, > form
of the total exports is steaai' ncreas
ing That this change In /. character
of the exports of the country a move
ment from agricultural products to-
ward manufactures is due rather to
an increase in the home production of
manufactures than to any actual de
crease in the home production of agri.
cultural products is apparent upon
study of the statistical tables of the
census bureau and bureau of statistics,
which show the home production in
these two great classes.
The census tables show rapid
movement of population from the agri
cultural sections toward the manufac-
turing centers, and rs a result n small
er proportion of the total population
is engaged in the production of food,
while n larger proportion is producing
manufactures instead of food supplies
thus diminishing the surplus available
for expectation. Figures of the bureau
of statistics show that the wheat con
sumption of the United States in the
fiscal year 1904 was the largest in the
history OF the country. the total bush
els consumed being 517, 1918 against
ACC, 975,9I3 bushels in 1908.

A Garfield delivered at Cleveland, o.,
Oct. Ii. 1871
Now, fellow citizens, q word before
I leave you. on the very eve of the
holy day of Coda fit moment to con
secrate ourselves finally to the great
work of next Tuesday morning. | see
in this great audience tonight n great
many young men, young men who are
about TO east their first vote. want
TO give you word of suggestion and
advice. The other day a boy up in
one of the northwestern counties said
to me: General, l have great mind
to vote the Democratic ticket. My
father is a Republican. and my broth
ers are Republicans. and | am a Re
publican all over but | want to be an
Independent man. and l don't want
anybody to say, That fellow votes the
Republican ticket just because his dad
does and l have half mind to,vote
the Democratic ticket Just to prove
my independence" | did not like the
thing the boy suggested, but l did adj
mire the spirit of the boy that wanted
to have some Independence of his own.
Now l tell you, young men. don't
vote the Republican ticket just because
your father votes it. Don't vote the
Democratic ticket even If he does vote
it. But let me give you this one word
of advice as you are about to pitch
your tent in one of the great political
camps. Your life is full and buoyant
with hope now, and, | beg you, when
YOU pitch your tent, pitch 1t among the
living and not among the dead. If
you are Mt all inclined to pitch it
among The Democratic people and with
that party, 1t me go with you for
moment whiie we survey the ground
whore l hope YOU will not shortly lie.
1t is a sad place, young man, for You
to put your young life into. 1t is to
me far more like a graveyard than
like a camp for the living.
