LEADING NATIONS IMPORT MUCH 
LUMBER 
EW people have the slightest con¬ 
ception just how important a part 
timber and unmanufactured wood play 
in the trade between the world’s great 
nations, and doubtless It is news to many 
to learn that the lumber importations of 
the various countries amount to ,^ 285 ,- 
600 , 006 . This is according to esti¬ 
mates for the whole world compiled by 
Dr. Ernest Friedrich, of the German 
commercial high school at Leipzig. 
Notwithstanding the fact that it finds 
its own supply dwindling, the United 
States furnishes about twenty per cent of 
the lumber imported by other countries. 
Austria-Hungary furnishes nineteen per 
cent, Russia sixteen per cent, Canada 
thirteen per cent, Sweden eighteen per 
cent, and Norway and Roumania a 
small quantity. 
The countries importing wood are 
those on the highest economical plane, 
which were themselves in earlier times 
densely wooded, but whose forests have 
been denuded to a greater or less extent 
to make room for agriculture and other 
industries, says Vice-Consul James L. A. 
Burrell, of Magdeburg, in a report to 
this government. Only four per cent of 
the territory of Great Britain is covered 
with forests, and during the year 1906 
that country imported lumber to the 
value of ^ 135 , 561 , 750 . Germany has 
still twenty-six per cent of its territory 
covered by forests, but imported in 1906 
lumber valued at ^ 61 , 285 , 000 . Belgium 
and the Netherlands, that have but 
eight per cent forest lands, Denmark, 
that has seven per cent, France and 
Switzerland, with a small percentage, 
are all compelled to import lumber. 
Besides these countries, those lands 
lying on the dry western side of the sub¬ 
tropical zone lacking forests are forced 
to import wood. Egypt imports wood 
and coal to the value of about ^ 16 , 660 ,- 
000 annually; Algeria, Tunis, Spain,
