SALESMAN AN IMPORTANT FACTOR.

With imaginations fired as to the op-
portunities offered in this field, many
American manufacturers probably are
giving little heed to anything other
than the mere getting of their statesmen
Ion the ground" But the selection of
a salesman to canvass the territory is
an important factor. The first requisite
is that he be a salesman; the second
that he possess courtesy, tact, and
gentle breeding. The Latin-Americau
has inherited the manners of his South
European ancestors; he is -suave and
courtly, and takes neither kindly nor
quickly to the brusque hammered Gales
man.
Personal contact is a necessity. In
the past this territory has been flooded
with American catalogues the impotence
of which has been demonstrated. Ere
puently. the manufacturer had not even
ascertained the language of the country.
Brazil has been canvassed in this man
Her with Spanish literature, whereas
Portuguese is the language spoken, and
Haiti has received the same catalogues,
useless to a people whose tongue is
French.
Markets Steadily Growing
That tine markets are there, however,
and are steadily growing is demon
strated by the fact that South Amerl-
ca now imports annually more than
q Dillon collars worth OF SOOQS, against
a half million a decade ago. This coun-
try is prepared TO supply practically
all of the goods reeded, textiles. iron
and steel manufactures. machinery.
railway supplies. coal. lumber. cloth
ing. and the numerous other articles
that appertain to the daily life of people
of European stock, with habits similar
10 those of the people Of the United
States.
At present the United States. how
ever. is merely supplying 15 per cent
OF these 100000 worth.
Europe is furnishing the vastly greater
part of the remaining sS50,o00.000.
Argentina in 1872 bought five times
as much merchandise from Europe AS
from the United States. The United
Kingdom sold that country Sis, co., 600
worth of supplies; Germany sold IT 49,
oo0. 900; France. SIC 600 600 worth: Italy.

Brazil Has Preference.
The preference for European products
on the part of Brazil was equally as
The Washington times., 1914-10-07

marked In 1912 the United Kingdon
marketed sT.0OO.00o worth of goods II
that country: Germany sold So O0O, 900
France, S2S,0J0,0 900 worth. and the res
of Europe, $4,000. 900. while the Unite,
States was confined to q trade of S4S,
coo. co.,
The European dominance of trade IL
those countries located in the extreme
north of South America, just beyond
our southern ports. was practically a,
pronounced. Colombia purchased two
thirds of her supplies in Europe an6
one-third from the United States, while
Venezuela spent s12.OOO.oOO in 1872 with
European countries and only 5000, ,0O(
with the United States
II the American manufacturer needs
a spur to drive him after this trade he
should f1nd 1t in the fact that the
greater part Of the South American pur-
chases from Europe consist of goods
large quantities and is seeking oppor-
tunity to sell.
Cotton Sales for Year.
South American countries In 1912 i'm
ported cotton goods, totaling in value
800 1900. but the United States, pro-
ducing two-thirds of all the cotton
grown in the world. sold only $500 OoO
Of that total. Europe purchased the raw
cotton from this country, converted it
into a finished product, shipped back
to our very doors. and supplied 95 per
cent of the demand. Argentina bought
81 .000.0OD worth Of cotton goods that
year. of which less than 81 200 900 worth
was from this country. and of the ST.
0oo 900 worth that Brazil consumed the
United States furnished less than $500, 900
worth.
The United States produces nearly as
much coal as all the rest of the world
put togther. but of the so 900 900 worth
consumed in South America in 1912 this
country furnished scarcely per cent
Brazil and the Argentine bring their
coal five or six thousand miles across
the sea from England, and Chile and
Peru import their supplies from Aus
tralia. 5000 miles away.
The great English cotton mills, how
ever. are now confronted with a situa-
ton which is expected to close their
doors before Christmas. and England is
taking all Of the output from the Welsh
collieries
II the cotton producers Of the United
States, and the mine operators Of this
country can arrange credits this great
trade is within their reach.

Russia Stirring Up Strife.

United Press Dispatch.
 Tokio, Oct. 9.-Since the be- ginning of the war between Ger and Japan, there has been what appears to be a systemat- ic effort to create i'll feeling be- tween Japan and the United States. This has been manifest ed in many ways, but particular ly through the publication of re- ports of demands which the U- nited States would make of Ja- pan, and of American sympathy for Germany.
 A report that the United States had sold several warships to Germany was given wide pub iication and for few days, cre- ated violent anti-American sen- timent. It is generally believed that Russia is fostering this at- titude in an attempt to weaken Japan by bringing her into a war with the United States.

The work that you are doing along the line of hookworm investigation in this county is Invaluable, and the State Board of Health deserves the thanks of our entire people for the interest manifested in this great work
 A revolution in manner of living. life giving sanitation, better health, and more happiness, are the blessings that will result from the intelligent work now being done. Anything that I can do to help on the good work, SO long neglected and so happily inaug- urated, will be done most cheerfully.
