 The rapid progress in the fabrication of machinery in Germany is best seen from the growth of the German exports as shown by the following table:-

1890.
1895.
1907.

Machines and parts thereof 


£2,450,000

 £3,215,000

 £17,482,500




Sewing-machines parts 
thereof 



315,000 
430,000 
1,202,500


Locomotives and locomobiles


280,000 
420,000 
1,820,000

Three years later the first of these items had already reached £25,000,000, and the export of bicycles, motorcars, and motor-busses, and parts thereof, was valued at £2,904,000.

Everyone knows that German sewing- machines, motor-bus frames, and a considerable amount of tools find their way even into this country, and that German tools are plainly recommended in English books.
