With the countries Of South America
which last year imported goods worth
$96j.123,li7 ready to do practically all
Of their buying in the United states, the
question that confronts bankers and mer-
sieap,s here at present Is the establish
, rnt t'rst of n cash business between this
country and the South American rcpub-
hcs. This is regarded as the first es-
sential step in the exchange of goods,
which should total almost two billions Of
dollars a year.
The necessity for cash transactions
from the American viewpoint Is due to
the arrangement of banking and exchange
facilities occasisncd by the European
var that also has destroyed South
Americas buying facilities. The neccs-
sty Is accounted for also by the fact
that Americans have comparatively little
acquaintance yet in South America and do
not know to whom they can extend credit
with safety. Furthermore. there have
been hard times in several Of the coun-
tries Of South America in the last few
years and an era of prosperity Is just
beg ginning.

RUSSIA NOW IMPORTS
OUR PACING STATIONS.
Two Well Bred Turf Performers Ship
ped For Foreign Stud.

The recent shipment to Russia of
two well bred pacing stailions-Lo-
canda, 2:02; and John Ward, 2:05A-
by Z. J. Tranter of New York, has oc-
casioned wide and thoughtful comment
among trotting horse men and breeders
in this country.
This is almost the firse time in the
history of the light harness horse that
pacing stations have been shipped to
Europe outside Of England, and while
1t is not at present known just for
what purpose these horses are to be
used. it seems to indicate that there
is new field opening up for good look
ing, well bred, free legged, fast, record
pacing stations.
If these two pacing stations make
good for whatever purpose they have
been purchased, it is likely there will
be a big demand for this product of
the American trotting industry.
The demand of the foreign market
for American bred trotting stations
with fast records has for some time
far exceeded the supply, and during
the past few seasons Europe has taken
so many high class horses of this type
that her further demand is beginning
to be difficult one to fill. 1t may be
for this reason that the Russian breed
ers are beginning to look upon such
horses as Locanda and John Ward as
acceptable.
Both are trotting bred, free legged
performers, and If crossed with the
pure gated Orloff trotting mares, mem
| bers of a breed in which the pacing
| tendencies have been suppressed for
more than a hundred years, it is quite
| sure that they will prove successful.
