TRADE OF UNITED STATES
WITH SOUTH AMERICA

Trade between the United States
and South America in the calendar
year just ended was practically 300
million dollars in value, a total in ex-
cess of that of any earlier year. In
1900 the trade between the United
States and that continent aggregated
l144 million dollars; in 1905, 211 mil.
lion in 1910, 290 Million and in the
first eleven months 1911 for which
details are available, 273 million, of
which over 20 million represented the
month of November, thus indicating
for the complete calendar year a total
of fully 300 million dollars.
Our imports from South America
still exceed our exports to that con-
tinent, though the latter are rapidly
gazing in the proportion which they
form of the total trade. In 1900 inn
ports were value dat 103 million, ex-
ports at Al million, exports thus being
29 per cent of the total trade In the
IL months of 1911 imports were 165
million and exports 1O9 million, the
latter being 40 per cent of the total
trade.
The imports into the United States
from South America are chiefly drawn
from the following countries, in the
order named, the totals being esti-
mates for the full calendar year based
upon II months figures already com
piled by the bureau of statistics, De-
Ipartment of Commerce and Labor.
From Brazil the total is likely to be

million last year; from Argentina. %

|of statistics estimates the years inn
ports from South America at aproxi-
mately 1873 million dollars, or slightly
less than the figures for 1910. which
were 189 million.
Exports to South America on the
other hand, show marked growth
when compared with those of a year
earlier. the estimated total for 1911 be-
ing 12O million, compared with 100
million in 1910, the former high rec
ord year. To Argentina, the largest
South American market for American
products. our exports increased from
424 million dollars in 1910 to an esti-
mated total of so million in the year
just ended; to Brazil, from 25 to %
million dollars; to Chile, from 10 to
15 million; to Peru, from less than
