In the usporta no equally satisfactory in 1,730,000. A dividend of 7 or 3 per cunt per crease in volums and values is also apparent, but it will be seen that the main article, which was formerly cotton yarn, is now raw cotton. The value of the latter exported to Japan rose from Rs. 1,864,310 in 1389-00 to Rs. 87,603.320 in 1896-07, while that of cotton yarn fell from Rs. 9,790,140 in 1889-90 to Rs. 249,386 in 1690-97. The reason, 29 is well known, is that Japan now sping her own cotton fars, and importsalarge proportion of the raw cotton for the purpose from India. Among other exports that of indigo has shown a notable increase, its value having risen from R 592,030 to Re. 2,275,000 in 1806-07. The efforts being made by Japan to promote trade with foreign countries minst bour good fruit, and are beginning to show it already. If the Chinesc Government took half the same trouble, their foreign trade, which exists rather in spite of them,' would very soon exhibit indications of great and needled ex- pansion.
