Augusta was visited by shower
shortly before Y o'clock yesterday al
te1noon that was as energetic as it was
brief. Ii did not rain more than ~
minutes. but it was a downpour in the
superlative degree and soaked every
thing and everybody who did not get
under cover. The rain was accompan-
led by a stiff wind that broke small
branches from the trees about the city,
particularly along Bangor street, where
it was necessary to stop one of the
trolley cars several times in order to
remove branches from the track before
the car could proceed.

A Low wagon.

A low wagon is a decided advantage

Farm Products Exports.

Exports of farm products from the
United States have increased from an
average of S15O.0OO,0O year in the
fve-year period from 1851 to 1855 to
more than $1,000, 100000 in 1908. ac-
cording to the Department of Agricul-
ture. The increase in exports has
been greater than the increase in pop
ulation. In 1S51-55 the average value
per capita of agricultural exports was
s5.S5; in 1901-05 it was S10.SS. Elk
ports Of packing house products have
increased from $10,OOO,0OO in the
1876 period to Sl96,00O,0O0 in 1908,
the principal items in this group be-
ing pork, beef and oleo oil. Since
1905 there has been a decline in the
exports of beef, but the balance of
trade favors foreign countries by near
ly S200,000.000 in the year ending
June 80, 1909, according to the adj
vance sheets of the report of the New
York Chamber of Commerce The re-
port will show that imports into the
United States increased S1S,0S5, 245
over 1908, while exports for 1909 fell
off s175,35S.326.
