C., March 13.—Evi- dence that the public made general response to the food administration’s appeal for increased production and decreased consumption of meat is shown in statistics furnished the food administration today by the depart- ment of agriculture. Meat animals in the United States increased by 6,960,000 in the year ending January 1, 1918, the increase consisting of 1,247,410 cattle, 3,781,000 hogs, and 1,284,000 sheep. Inspections of beef for slaughter increased 2,039,- 651 or 24.5 per cent, but inspection of hogs decreased 21.3 per cent, more than 9,000,000 head, and inspections ‘of sheep fell off 21.9 per cent, approx- imately 2,500,000 head. The gains in available meat indicat- ed by these figures were what caused the food administration recently to relax restrictions on meat consump- tion, so that there might be greater saving of wheat for export. Exports of all kinds of meat de- creased during the year, due to lack of ships. Prices paid for meat animals were higher than ever before. The average price of beef advanced 22.1 per cent, from $9.50 per 100 pounds ’in 1916 to $11.60 in 1917. Hogs advanced from $9.60 to $15.10, a total of 57 per cent, and sheep increased 40 per cent, from 37.85 to $11. ; CONFESSES MURDER AND ATTACK OF.
