—wool, hides, musk, amber, saffron, and some gold-
dust from the various small placer-works of the
Himalayan slopes.
Compared with this tea-trade, all other commer-
cial movements in Tibet are insignificant.
A few European trinkets and some cotton goods,
a small quantity of amber, and, lately, a fair volume
of rupees are brought in exchange for the wool and
gold-dust and Chinese tea which go into Nepal or
Sikkim, and a little to Ladak. If we consider the
tea-trade alone at Ta-chien-lu, its value there, in-
creased by, say, twenty per cent., will cover the total
foreign trade of the country. Considered as weight
of merchandise to be transported, it will exceed that
of all outgoing and all other incoming goods. In
the Ta-chien-lu market, M. Grenard, whose figures
are the latest reliably reported, found common
varieties worth about seven cents per pound (8.5
pence per kilo), while high grades sold at about
twenty cents per pound. It is probable that there
is much more of the former than of the latter. We
may take ten cents per pound as an approximate
average. Hence it would appear that the Tibetans
pay $1,300,000 for that staple, which means more
to them than does any other food, except bread, to
any civilised people. Increasing this by twenty per
cent. we find $1,560,000 as the approximate total of
their present purchasing power.
The average price of tea in Lhasa (Grenard)
seems to be about twenty-five cents per pound, cost
of transport and profit having added one hundred
and fifty per cent. of the value at Ta-chien-lu. If
we assume ten cents per pound for transport and
