The United Kingdom leads all the countries in the world as a 
market for the domestic farm and forest products of the United 
States. During the last 10 years the United Kingdom averaged 
annually 39 per cent of all farm and forest products exported. 
Nearly one-half of the cotton exported was taken by this market 
during the five years 1910-1914, averaging annually 1,750,000,000 
pounds, valued at $220,000,000. Three-fourths of the hops exported, 
one-half of the glucose and grape sugar, live animals, sugar, and 
starch, one-third of the packing-house products, grain and grain 
products, tobacco, and dairy products are sent to the United

nually. Of the naval stores, the United Kingdom takes about one- 
fifth of the rosin exported amounting annually to 500,000 barrels,

or 7,000,000 gallons, valued at $3,000,000.
