America Makes Most Shoes.

The United States leads boot and shoe exporting nations of the world, the value of exports in 1908 aggregating $l1,4zO,OOO, accord ing to the bureau of statistics.
 The country now produces two thirds of the worlds cotton, more than half of it's copper, more iron for manufacturing than any other two nations, more illuminating oil, meats and bread, and is rapidly in creasing the supply of finisht d manufactures sent to various sec tions of the world.
 The growth of exportations from 55O,OOO pairs of footwear in 1878 to 6,5OO,OOO in 1908 reveals the marvellous growth of this industry.
 When the tariff on hides is re- moved the production of American footwear is expected to increase enormously.
