EXPOBT OF COFFEE AND PEPPER FROM 
THE MALABAR COAST. 
Tellicherry, Sept. 8th. 
Deab Sir,— Accompanying this we have the. 
pleasure to hand you our annual statement of ex, 
ports of coHee and pepper from the west coast 
for the year e nding June 30th last. 
C-ojee —Although from the figures given it wil 
be seen that the total exports of cofiee for th® 
past season exceeded those of the previous year, 
the result taken all round was disappointing and 
it was a fortunate thing for all ooncerned that 
such excellent prices were obtained. Mangalor 
still continues to receive an appreciable quantity 
of coffee from North Coorg and Mysore. Tellicherry 
on the other hand, which may be said to be the 
central market for coffee on the west coast, draw 
ing a considerable quantity from other ports, is 
falling ofi considerably in its actual receipts from 
upcountry owing to the almost complete extinction 
of estates in North Wynaad and decreasing crops 
in South Coorg. Calicut and Beypore both show 
an improved export as compared with the previous 
year. 
Prospects for the coming crop are deoidedly 
gloomy, and it is very evident that whether owing 
to want of labour, abnormal seasons, or leaf-disease, 
it is a recognised fact that crops generally even 
in the most favored districts are gradually de- 
creasing and this in spite of a larger acreage coming 
under cultivation, and we anticipate that we shall 
see a very considerable falling-oH in exports for 
the coming season as compared even with the past- 
It will be seen that last year’s exports 
exceeded those for the six years shown in oir 
Btatement, and we may add that a very consider, 
able quantity of last year’s crop is still being held. 
Prices fell very considerably, and with the reported 
increase in Singapore, Penang and Java yields 
and a rising exchange, growers will have to accept 
Btill lower prices if business is to result, 
The coming crop is reported to be an average 
OOB.—We are, dear sir, yours faithfully, 
Ralph Tatham.
