TABLE No. Ill 



Principal Articles Exported in 1904 by certain 

 Countries 



{In millions of pounds) 



eluded in Table No. I. ; the others are included in Table No. II. 



A glance at the table will show that the 

 countries of Table No. I., that is, those which 

 import to higher value, do not export much 

 food, timber, and such natural produce, but 

 export largely manufactured and half-wrought 

 goods; while the countries of Table No. II., that 

 is, those which export largely, depend chiefly in 

 trade on their agricultural and mineral products.
