CHEWING UP THE DOLLARS

Chewing gum manufacturers one would at first blush
think in small business The person who does not
lreaZe the enormous amounts aggregation of small
things reach would naturally place the little wads of gum
in the negligible list far dollars go. Just what
amount of Uncle Sans coin is spent yearly by those who
have the gum chewing habit not known; but some idea
of be gained from the amounts sent foreign coun-
tries Most chewing gums made of chicle and the
ports of this product in 1894 only valued at $656
In 1895 the value Sl7O9 and in 1896 it $2S9
The next year chewing gum disappeared from the list of
things exported Since that time ehcle has gained stead
lily in favor and this year of high prices and strict
economy, with the cutting out of luxures chce worth
S9255OO exported during the first nine months of the
fiscal year This should make the total for the year
ly million and quarter dollars. Quite sum and large
enough to take the gum industry out of the class of small
things.
