agriculture. Thus while in 1851 we sold
abroad agricultural matter to the value
of $146,717, 431, but 1882, 400 was for
animal matter, the remainder being for
vegetable matter, principally grains.
Twenty years later, 1871, we sold
abroad agricultural products to the
value of 1910, 4S1, 1899, of which $42,458.-
451, or 11.4 per cent, was for animal
matter. Of the 1857 1883 sales of
agricultural products abroad in 1902,
$256,416,722, or 1913 per cent, was for
animal matter.
OF the vegetable matter wheat and
wheat flour forms by far the largest
item in our exports of grain. In 1851
we sold abroad $1,026,725 bushels Of
wheat. receiving for it $1,025, 1872. By
1871 our exports of wheat had grown
to 34,304 800, for which we received
$45, 143, 424. In 1902 we sold abroad 1884,
$50, 102 bushels, receiving for it $112,-
S75,222. In the range of prices the year
1865 shows the top notch, when export
wheat brought on an average for tho
year $1.95. The minimum was in 1896,
when the average price for the year
was but 65h cents per bushel. From
1853 to-18S4 the average price of wheat
for export went below the one dollar

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
GOSSIP FROM /:
SCANDINAVIA;

r. The Cornhill, an English magazine,
contains an article on the Ofsten rail-
way, which runs across the Scandina-
Wan peninsula in the extreme north.
1t is strongly emphasized that the
suppression of Finland as an indie
pendent nation must surely be part
of plot against Sweden and Nor
way. If England were engaged in a
great war and the ~Norwegians and
Swedes were quarreling among them
selves at the same time, Russia might
reach the goal which she has sap-
preached by means of suppressing
the Finnish people. In the closing
remarks of the article the hope is
expressed that Sweden and Norway
will settle their differences in a
peaceful and friendly manner.

$1.03. OF wheat -four our exports
amounted to 2,202,335 barrels in 1851,
valued at $10,524,331. In 1902 we ex-
ported 1852 barrels, valued at 65,-
661,974. The minimum price per bar
rel for -four was reached in 1895, when
it sold for 1898; the maximum price
was in 1865 when it reached $10.41.

less than five dollars per barrel. Since
1894 it has sold for over four dollars

averaged $4.51.
The largest item in our agricultural
exports is that of cotton. The growth
of home manufacture has prevented
the same wonderful growth in expor-
tation that is shown by other lines. In
1851 it formed the bulk of our agricul-
tural exports. In that year we sold
abroad 927, 237 ,089 pounds, for which
we received $112,315,317. In 1902 we
sold 3,528,974,636 pounds, for which we

Notwithstanding the great increase
In population, and the consequent
larger demands of the home market,
the development of agricultural pro-
ductivity in the United States during
the past so years has far outstripped
domestic requirements, leaving an in
creasing surplus to be disposed of in
foreign markets. According to the re-
turns for 1851. which comprise the
earliest record given in the department
our agricultural exports for that year
we're valued at STAT 100000, while in
1902, the latest year for which sta
tistics are available, the value amount
ed to 1857 100000. The striking differ
ence between these two records shows
how rapidly this branch of our COM
merce has developed. The present value
of the trade is nearly six times as large
as the value so years ago.
While our export trade in agricul-
tural produce has grown marvelous1y,
still larger growth Droportionately
has occurred in the expectation of
manufactured products, and thus the
percentage that agricultural produce
comprises of all merchandise exported
is considerably less to-day than it was
half century ago. OF the merchan-
disc sent abroad in 1851 products of
agriculture formed about 81 per cent,
whereas in 1902 the proportion agri-
cultural was only 63 per cent. The
change indicated by these percentages
has been particularly rapid during the
last two decades. It Is explained in
part by the more extensive manufac-
ture in the United States Of certain
raw materials Of agricultural origin
previously shipped in large quantities
to foreign countries.
An interesting feature disclosed by
the records Of our agricultural export
trade for the past 50 years is the in
creased Importance Of animal products
IN that trade rs compared with vege-;
! table products. In 1851 95 per cent. of
j the agricultural exports consisted Of
vegetable mattAr and only i've per cent.
OF animal matter. OF the exports for
1902 vegetable matter comprised about
II per cent. and animal matter about
20 per cent. These figures show the
extent to which our export trade has
been affected by the growing promi-
nence Of stock raising IN American

has aroused an unusual interest in ex-
port figures among our own people.
Especially is this true of the farming
classes. They have an interest not
only in the selling their products and
the price it brings, but they wish to
know where it is consumed, and what
demand it is that makes the price.
Such a demand from this class of the
American people marks an increased
Intelligence in the marketing of farm
products.
To meet the demand that has arisen
from the farmers for information of
this kind the agricultural department
at Washington has issued from time
to time series of pamphlets giving
mass of detailed figures which should
prove of exceptional interest. These
booklets show the increase in exports
of agricultural exports from 1851 to
1902, inclusive, and show also the value
OF the agricultural exports for that
period in comparison with the value of
the manufactured products exported, as
