LEADING INDUSTRIES IN THE APPROPRIATION
 OF MANUFACTURES

The success. of the great manufacturing industries in eX- tending their sales abroad is illustrated by the export record of iron, copper, wood, cotton, leather, and mineral oils during recent years. These six great industries have been able to send their products to every part of the world, accompan- jed, where necessary, by repre- SentatiVeS of their producers and distributors and, as a re- suit, show phenomenal gains in their foreign sales. Exports of iron and steel manufactures (fn- cluding automobiles and agr1- cultural implements with the group usually designated "irOn and steel manufaCtureS'') have grown from 35 million dollars in the fiscal year 1893 to ap- prOximateIy S75 million in 1913, or more than ten times as much as two decades ago. Copper manufactures show an even greater gain, from million dollars in 1898 to approximately 40 million in 1918. Manufac- lures of wood (incIuding in this term lumber as well as the com pIetely finished types of maTu- facture) show a growth from A million dollars in the fiscal year 1893 to about no million in 1918. Cotton manufactures increased in expOrtations from 12 million dollars in 1893 to ap- proximateIy 5S million in 1913, making 1t probable that this years record will pass the flg- Tlre of the former high record year, 1906. Leather and manu- factures thereof show a gain from 12 million dollars in 1898
 to approximately 65 million in the current year; and refined
 mineral oils, from 37 million dollars in 1898 to approximate 1y <13O million in 1918.
 Taking these six great groups wood, leather, cottons, and re- fined mineral oiIs-their ag- gregate exportation shows a growth in the 2O-year period from 125 million dollars in 1893 to 3S6 million in 1903 and about S75 million in 1918. This in6f- N<1Oc1S 0 eSGbAA OA OOO kCE OC4us HI the exports of these six great groups of manufactures in the 20-year period, against a gain of 126 per cent. in the exports of all other domestic products during the same period.
 The vast sums of money which these manufacturing or- ganizations are bringing into the country through their sales abroad is illustrated by official figures of the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, De- partment of Commerce, cover ing the past decade. The total value of iron and steel manu- factures exported from the United States in the 10 fiscal years which end with the cur rent month is, in round terms, 2 billion dollars; of copper and refined mineral oils, each about 1 billion; manufactures of wood, Ghree-quartePs of billion; leather and manufactures there of, a half billion; and nanufac- lures of cotton, nearly 8 half billion dollars, making a total for the six groups named of ap- proximate1y 51a billion dollars out of a total of about IS biI- lion dollars worth of domestic products exported during that period.
