the average prewar exports The
wheat exports reached a maximum
in the month Of August and have

to the incoming OF the Canadian

Corn Exports Gain.
Exports OF corn amounted 20
ll3z.oOo,o00 bushels, which is about
three times the prewar exports and
six times the exports for 1890. This
large movement OF corn is due to
several causes. among which Is the
effort OF European countries TO in
crease pork production. corn being
comparatively cheap food for this
purpose. The European drought
which has increased somewhat the
general demand for imported grain
feeds, had affected in part the bar
ley crop. making necessary the i'm
pOrtation Of considerable corn for
growing and mailing purposes. Also.
while in 1891 a large amount OF
corn was sold TO Europe by Argen-
tina the trade has shifted to a large
Sdegree to the United States. during
the past year. due. no doubt. 20 the
policy of American exporters 10

The large trade in American rice

short crop in India last year and 60

ing IL a relative cheap food product.
The expectation OF barley has also
improved as a result OF the Euro
pean drought
The Continued rather heavy ex-
portation OF pork products. although
not as large as last year, is still
well above prewar exports. Exports
for the year reached a very hiGh

salts are superior to those chemical

The production, Of potash in Poland
up to this time has been only a frac-
ton OF the German output, which in
prewar years averaged about 1,e00,-
GOO metric tons annually. Polish en-
gineers are of the opinion. however.
that when, all of the-potash fields in
Poland will be properly exploited. the
industry will grow rapidly and reach
large proportions.
Nearly all OF Poland's prewar
potash production was used in Galicia
and Bukowina. About one-fifth In
the form Of potash fertilizer was ex-
ported to Moravia, Austria and Dali

duction Of chlorites went to the
Vienna ammunition factories.
