American Mnchinerx.


The Morocco OF today offers but few op.
portunities for the sale Of American ma
chinery. AS to farm implements, the peo-
pie are too poor to buy anything that costs
much. The country is divided up into an
infinite number of small holdings, and all
outside the officials and chiefs and mer-
chants live from hand to mouth. The tax
gatherers also attempt to collect one-tenth
OF all crops
Labor here is backward as in the days Of
the middle ages. All over Morocco logs
are sawed into boards by hand, and thresh-
ing is done upon well pounded floors with
rails or by treading the grain out with
horses, cattle or mules. II would be i'm
possible to carry a threshing machine
through the country for the lack OF roads,
and in many localities II would be difficult
to supply the fuel TO run It.
Saddles and harness. such as we have,
are in no demand. and the hardware used is
Of the cheapest homemade variety There
are some sewing machines in USE but the
favorite ones are those run by hand There
is some sale for mirrors, darning needles
and sewing needles These as well as nails
and wire, are now sent in by the Germans
Much of the Moroccan earthenware is
homemade. Some china is imported, and
also many drinking glasses in which tea
Is served
Most of the other Mohammedan nations
drink coffee. These people drink tea, and
are especially fond OF 1t when favored with
mint. The way to make IT, am told, is to
put good lot of sugar into the teapot ana
a spoonful or so of green tea, together with
some mint leaves. Now pour on boiling
water and let the stun steep. II you make
It right you will have drink for the gods
and at the same time free from the intoxi-
eating properties of the mint julep of the
Kentucky colonel. Such liquor is furnished
In tumblers at tea houses all over this coun-
try, and the Moors drink it boiling hot sit
ting cross legged on the ground as they do
50. The most of the tea used comes from
England, London alone sending as many as
1900 chests in one year. In 1904 Morocco
bought OF England more than 100000 worth
of tea, and its sugar purchases then
amounted to considerably over 100000 In
value. These people are fond of sweets,
and their consumption of sugar is so great
that it has almost ruined their teeth. This
any one can see whenever Moor opens
his mouth.
