NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, UNITED STATES IS FEEDING THE WORLD Over 82, 000 000,000 Worth of Foodstufls Exported During 1918, wAY York, Jan. 23-—The United States is really “feeding the world.” | The total value of the foodstuffs,sent out of this country in ended amounts, the year according to a com- pilation by The National City Bank of New York, $2,000,000,000 against an average of iess than $500.- 000,000 per prior In fact the vrlue of foodstuffs export- ed from ihe country in the decade pre- eeding the war averagad but $450,000,- | 000 per annum and never in any vear | prior to the war reashed as much as | £600,000,000. In the calendar year 1915, however, the first full vear of the war it amounted to $1,012,000,000; ' in 1916 $1,105,000,000; in 1917 $1,305 000,000 and in 1918 crossed the § 000,000,000 line. Official figures of exports to foreign countries in the calpndar year 1918 show a total of over $1,900,000,000 and when to this is added the amount sent on Govern- ment vessels and not included in the official report of the Custom Houses plus those to our own colonies not classed as exports, the grand total of foodstuffs of domestic production passing out of the United States in | the calendar year 1918 will exceed $2,000,000,000 or more tHan four timyes the annual average in the de- cade preceding the war. While this large increase in the value of foodstuffs exported is due in Some degree to the increased prices, the quantities also show very large increases. The total quantity of fresh | beef, for example, exported in the calendar year 1918 amounts to ap- | proximately 540,000,000 pounds | against only 6,300,000 pounds in the fiscal year 1914, all of which imme- | diately preceded the war and is a | much larger quantity than ever ex- | ported in a single year, even in the highest record of the years in which fresh beef was passing out of the United States in very large quantities Bacon, in the calendar year 1918, shows a total of over 1,000,000,000 pounds against less than 200,000,000 pounds in the vear immediately pre- ceding the war, and aggregating more than twice as much as in any earlier | year. Condensed milk. of which the | exportations prior to the war never exceeded 21,000,000 pounds, amounted in 1918 to ,000,000 pounds. Of wheat, of which a’' large proportion was in 1918 sent in the form of flour, | the total spared to foreign countries | is 'far in excess. of that of earlier | years. While, of cours to over annum to the war a large proportion of this increase occurs in movements to Europe, it does not follow that all of the increase is for the Allied coun- tries or to our own troops participat- ing In the war. Of the condensed milk seht out of the country in the calen- dar 1918, nearl pounds went to Indi 000 pounds in the fis v 1,500,000 pounds in 1916 and only | 25,000 pounds in the year preceding the war, while the quantity -sent in 1918 to Cuba was ov 30,000,000 pounds; to Strait's Settlement over 5,000,000 pounds; to Hongkong nearly 4,000,000 pounds; to Japan, over 3,- 000,000; to the Philippine Islands more than 6,000,000 pounds and to British South Africa about 5,000,000 | pounds. Of refined sugar, we sent in 1918 over 25,000,000 pounds to Bel- | Just | gium; over 2,000,000 pounds to our near neighbor, Mexico; more than 3,000,000 pounds to Newfoundland, | and approximately 1,000,000 pounds to British Africa. Of canned salmon, the exportation to 1918 included 4.- | 000,000 pounds in Canada, about 6,- | 000,000 pound to the Philippine Islands, and more than 1,000,000 | pounds each to Australia and Chile, | while Canada took from us in 1918 over 12,000,000 pounds of prunes and about 30,000,000 pounds of raisins.
