J.p.nss. Trade With Panama.

A Japanese consulate has been es-
tablished In Panama city. This is the
outcome Of growing commercial rela-
lions between Japan and the republic
of Panama. Although there are few
Japanese residents in Panama, the
prospects for trade between the two
countries are excellent. Japan is now
exporting canned goods. boxes, furni-
ture, skins, willow baskets. figured
mats, grass goods, earthen wares. silk
and cotton goods and many other
things to that country, the total vo,ue
of which amounted to $13,084, 600 In
tho year 1917, but there were prach-
cally no imports.
