Table XV Bhows the percentages of the total international trade in 
corn represented l>\ the exports of the five principal corn-exporting 
countries each year for a period of eight years, from 1901 to 1907, inclu- 
sive. The deductions were made from atableof exports, which, to- 
gether with n table of imports, is published in the Yearbook of the 
Department of Agriculture under the caption "International Trade 
in Corn mid Corn Meal." It is Dot claimed thai the figures given in 
those tables ai e exact , but t hat the \ represent su list ant iallv the inter- 
nal tonal corn i rade of t he world. 
On the basis of this table it will be seen that for the whole period 
tin 1 ii\-' countries shown supplied an average of 92.1 per cent 
of the total international trade in corn: that the United States and 
Argentina each BUpplied an average of more than one-third of that 
trade. It will also be seen thai from 1901 to 1905, inclusive, the per- 
centages supplied by the United States increased rapidly and that 
since the latter year those percentages decreased almost as rapidly, 
while the percentages supplied by Argentina show a rapid and sub- 
stantial increase from the beginning of the period.
