NOTE.-The figures in the upper half of this table represent the recorded values on Importation, and those in the lower half values on Exportation. Owing to the addition of freight and other charges (usually 10 per cent. all round in Victoria) the grand total ought to be higher in the upper than in the lower half of the table, but owing to defective records the reverse is the case.
