Character of exports. As this is still a comparatively new country, raw materials lead in exports. Such are foodstuffs, as wheat or cattle, raw cotton, and crude petroleum. But manu- factures are growing both absolutely and in percentage of ex- ports, of which they constituted 15 per cent in 1880 and 40 per cent in 1906. The export of manufactures doubled in the ten years preceding 1906. Foodstuffs in 1890 made 42 per cent, and in 1906 only 31 per cent, of the total exports. In that year the Un...ited States was third among nations in export of manufactures. FOREIGN COMMERCE OF THE UNITED STATES 273 Exports of Manufactures in 1906 United Kingdom $1,400,000,000 Germany 1,000,000,000 United States 700,000,000 France 500,000,000 Cotton is the largest item of exports, followed by breadstuffs, meat and dairy products, iron and steel, mineral oils, and copper. Each of these exceeded $100,000,000 in value for the year 1 907- 1 908. The export of copper has increased many times since 1890, because abundantly found, and in great demand in the recent electrical development.
