GERMAN TRADE IS BIGGER Trade With United States over 381 Million as Compared With 344 in 1914. Germany's requirements us to United States products are apparent ly unchanged. Details of the 1921 trade of the United States with Germany just received, show, says a statement by the National City bank of New York, that hqr habits of reliance upon the United States for manufacturing materials and certain staple articles of food continue as before the war. Total exports from the United States to Germany in the fiscal year just ended?the year ending June 30, 1921?exceed in value those of the pre-war high record year, 1914, the total for the fiscal year 1921 standing at $381,772,000 against $344,794,000 in the fiscal year 1914. The principal articles forming this big total of our 1921 exports to Germany, adds the bank's statement, are practically the same a> those prior to the war. They consist chiefly of raw cotton, copper, wheat, meats and mineral oils in the various forms, though the list of foodstuffnow includes condensed milk, not formerly sent to Germany, while na val stores cottonseed r.< al, and tobacco which were sent her formerly are not enumerated by the department of commerce among; the articles sent to that country in 1921. Haw cotton is the biggest single article measured by values, of the 1921 exports to Germany, totaling* $104,000,000 out of a grand total of $381,772,000 of all articles exported to that country. In fact, the quantity of cotton sent to Germany in the fiscal year just ended is greater than to any other country in the # world except the United Kingdom, and totals 570,000,000 pound.-: against 210.000,000 in 1920, but is far less than in the year immediately preceeding the war when it totalled 1,442,000,000 pounds with a valuation in that year of $182,000,000 against the $104,000,000 in the year just ended. Wheat is t-he next largest "item in the exports to Germany, amounting to $72,000,000 in value in the year just ended (including flour in terms of wheat), as against $4,000,000 last year and less *han $11,000,000 in 1914. Lard comes next in value of the 1921 expots to that country, $41,355,000 against $15,230,000 one year ago and $16,573,000 in 1914.

Her food demands upon us are greater than in 1914, the 1921 figures showing bac'on $10,000,000 against nothing in the year prior to the war; and condensed milk $(>;3G7,000 as against nothing in the pre-war year. Other articles included canned meats, oleo oil. cottonseed oil and parrafin. For mineral oils in its various foVms, the demand is even irr?ater than prior to the war. especialIv in lubricating oils of which the total sent to Germanv in 1921 amounted to $12,000,000 against $3,000 000 in the vear before the war, and of illuminating oil, gasoline and nanthhas. the total in 1921 is slightly greater than that of 1914. Of cotton seed oil the value in 1921 exports to that country is a little over $1,000,000 as against about one-half million dollars in 1914. One especially interesting point adds the bank's statement in this oniric return of Gormnnv to lior for I mer trade habits with us is that the irrowth in our exports to that couti| try has continued up to tho very last month, while to practically all other countri^ exports show ;?
