U.S. farmers sold fewer agricultural products overseas, offsetting the best month of sales for American-made cars on record. The trade deficit grew 0.4 percent in August to $38.8 billion, the Commerce Department reported Thursday, Oct. 24, 2013. That's up from $38.6 billion in July. (AP Photo/J Pat Carter) *FILE*
