War Increases Indigo
Acreage in Honduras

The wartime demand for dyestuhs
has reviyified the ancient indigo indus
try of Central America. Honduras, SO
Francis ]. Dyer, American Consul al
Tegucigalpa, writes, had never wholly
abandoned the cultivation of indigo
for, although it ceased TO yield a proii'
as an export product, in competition
with the synthetic output of CONNER
cial laboratories, il is still found IN
general domestic use among the people,
The processes are crude, but If the IN
dustrv could be assured Of salts
factory future improvement would be
feasible.
The centre of the indigo industry IN
Honduras is around Camasca, which IS
in the southern portion OF the republic,
close to the border of Salvador The
product is marketed in Salvador, and
does not show in the export returns OF
Honduras.
A correspondent Of the "Nuevo ITEM
TO-" Of Tegucigalpa, in a recent issue
Of that newspaper, showed that the
acreage in indigo around Camasca had
increased from 1867 manzanas az
acres) in 1916, TO 1856 manZanas in
1917. The production, even with the
primitive methods OF cultivation and
extraction in use, is about thirty
pounds Of indigo per manzaaa, so that
the output of this small district should
approximate 100000 pounds this year.

BOSTON, Sept. THE United States
government is making great efforts to
develop the shipping industry. Many
contracts for ships have been let and
a programme for expansion is under
way in this connection. Shipping, OF
course. will be needed during the war
for supplying foreign nations. but after
the war many of the materials when
have been exported will probably not
continue to be sent across, or at least
not to such large extent. If ships
are to be available merchandise should
be ready for export in these ships.
The investment of large amount OF
money should warrant future trade.
The question arises. can the cotton
goods industry consider this develop
ment without making some prepare
ton to supply the ships with merchan-
disc and to build more mills in order
to obtain and hold the foreign trade,
or at least more of it than in the
past? Is the government adopting a
policy which will tend 10 make possible
a greater production Of cotton goods
This should be considered if merchan-
disc is exported to the same extent as
in the past. Great Developments can
not come in years time, but they must
rather be the result of careful prep
aration and a gradual growth. IL mas
been proved cOucluslyeiy that American
cotton goods can be exported IN com
petitlon with fabrics made in other
countries. Sellers are more familiar
with the outside market and are VIII
ing and anxious 10 make the goods
needed and to finish them as desired.
Nothing remains except the expansion
in the business to the extent possible
for selling prices and shipping facilI-
ties.
II appears as If the abnormal de-
mands for cotton had passed As the
crop continues to make good progress
IL is expected By some that cotton may
move m such volume before long that
the market may sag. With favorable
season from now on and late frost,
there will probably be a large crop.
The wooden goods market appears
much more inactive than for a long
time. More government buying re-
Gently has supplied enough orders for
the industry to keep it in reasonable
operation. making possible rather high
profits and exceedingly high prices for
merchandise.
