THE JEFFERSONIAN
World wide Distribution of Ameri
can Farm and Factory Products
HE contributions which the
people of the United States
are making to the comforts
ana requirements of the daily
ED
life of thTtse in other parts of the
world are scarcely realized even
by those supplying the articles so
contributed. How little does the
girl or woman employed in the
factory realize that the cotton cloth
being manufactured with her co-op
eration is to become a holiday dress
for some other girl or woman in
China, or India or Philippines, or
South America, or the islands of the
East or West! How little does the
boy or man who engages in the
daily round of farm life realize that
the bacon to be made from the pigs
which he feeds is to go into the
homes of Liberia, and Portuguese
Africa, and French Oceanina, and Asi
atic Russia or that the eggs which
he collects may be exported to Brit
ish Guiana, or Peru, or Cuba, or Cen
tral America, or the various countries
of Europe! Yet these and many
other curious and interesting inci
dents of the neighborly interchang
es between our people and those of
other disitant parts of the world are
shown as part of the every-year, all
the-year-round routines of trade
recorded by the Bureau of Statistics
of the Department of Commerce and
Labor.
Its annual volume. ‘Commerce
and Navigation of the United States ”
which is supplied free of charge to
those desiring it for study of our for
eign commerce, shows many curious
things, ior example, to see that the
American mule goes to Africa, Aus
tralia the Islands of Oceania, Brit
ish, Dutch, and French Guiana, Ecu
adore, Brazil, Haiti, Costa Rica, and
British Honduras for services on the
roads and plantations. American
candles, of which the exportations
amount to from 3 to 8 million pounds
a year, are lighting homes in Japan,
Korea, Siberia, Tasmania, Venezuela,
the Dutch West Indies, Salvadore,
the Phillippines and French posses
ions in Africa. American brooms
and brushes are making clean the
floors and dusting the garments of
dwellers in Turkey, Roumania, Malta,
the Azores Islands, Egypt, Spanish
possessions in Africa, German Is
lands in the Pacific, Hongkong,
and Santo Domingo. American pea
nuts, of which the exportations range
from 5 to 7 million pounds a year,
go to British India, the Guianas in
South America, the Danish West
Indies, Guatemala, Labrador, the
Island of Bermuda and the Belgian
Kongo in Africa. American boots
and shoes, of which the exports range
above ten million dollars a year, go
in increasing quantities to every
part of the world —Honkong, Siam,
Japanese territory in China Java
and Sumatra, the Straits settlements,
Australia and New Zeland, German
possesions in Africa, Liberia, Brazil
Paraguay, Mexico, Canada, and prac
tically every counery of Europe.
American windmills, of which more
than a million dollars’ worth are
exported every year, are seen in
South Africa, the Canary Islands,
Turkey in Asia, French China,Haiti,
Santo Domingo, Turkey in Europe,
Switzerland, Roumania, Greece, and
Greenland.
And so we might go on extending
the list indefinitely, enumerating
products of the American farm and
factory which are being sent to other
parts of the world, and these articles
would include sewing machines, type
writers, motor boats, organs, pianos,
pianolas, soap perfumery, oranges,
raisins, prunes, chewing gum, toys,
and many other equally curious and
interesting articles, to say nothing
of the great classes making up the
grand total of more than 7G7 million
dollars worth of foodstuffs. Os raw
cotton alone the year’s export
amounted to 450 million dollars; of
meat and dairy products, 130 miT
ion; of wheat and corn, partly in the
grain and partly in the form of flour
and meal, nearly 125 million; of
iron and steel manufactures, 180
million; of petroleum and other min
eral oils, 10 0 million; of copper
manufactures, nearly 90 million doll
ars, and so on down the list. The
countries, colonies and other terri
torial divisions to which these arti
cles go, as shown in the volume,
“Commerce and Navigation of the
United States,’’ above alluded to, are
over 100 in number, and it
would be difficult to find in any part
of the world a country in which
some article or articles of American
production are not being sold.
The articles which people of other
countries rend to the United States
in return will be discussed next.
