This means, after allowing for inerease in population, and addi- tion of pounds for every man, woman child in the country despite food conservation cam- ign in 1017 con- sumption to decline considerably “While the people a whole through their abstinence averted the immediate erisis, it was the farmer who was the really big factor in the ultimate situation, the Burean of Animal Industry, United States De- partment of Agriculture. “The pro- ducer, of course. was expected to do his part. buf he did it with such pow- erful cffect that in a single year the meat shortuge Was turned into pronounced surplus. Thus in 1918 there was not only meat enough to supply all foreign demands compati- | ble with shipping faciliti but a greatly enlarged quantity was avail- abic for the nome consumptign “To be sure, it cost the farmer more, much more, to feed his animals and get them to market. Likowiso, all other steps from producer to consumer hecame morn costly, henee the high prices. But the unprec dented prosperity of the people as whole enabled them to afford the in- creased cost. In fact, laboring people prohably consumed more meat during past year than in pre-war times. “The tfotal number of cattle aughtered in 1918 is estimated at 15,750,400 as against 1 900 in 1917. Their average weights were practically the same for both years, and the beef produced from them was .686,000,000 pounds in 1917 and 7.- 641.000.000 pounds in 1918. This was a remarkable achievement, as it hard- v would have been credited that beef arowers could jncrease their produc- tion a billion pounds in one year “The hog matures quickly. there- fore a much more rapid increase would he looked for than was the case with cattle. Tiven so, the re- 1lts for 1918 can be described only stupendous. The hogs marketed in 1918 numbered 69,851,700 | against 57.183,800 in 1917 Further- more. the age weight was 0 pounds more per hog in 1018, when the animals are turned into pork and lard we have a total pro- duction of 11,225,664.000 pounds in 1918 as against 8,478,289,000 pounds in 1917 an incre: 3 L000 | pounds, ov 22.1 one- | third.” Striking increases are also shown by Beef shipments abroad 94 per cent more than chief 1918 items being pounds of fresh beef and 000 pounds of canned heef. of pork and lard in 1518 to 2 7.020——which cent more than the abroad in 1917 The burean shows gregate more meat by far is eaten in the United States than in any other country in the world-—although some sparsely settled countries aising much meat have a larger per capita consumption It alsa s that there is room in the United for a great expansion in the wutton and lamb 1 nd forces and the which cansed sayvs B as as ave per cent, nearly in the in in exports hurean 1918 were 1917—the 514.000,000 141,000, Exports amounted was T1.7 per auantity sent that in the ag- tates use of IS LOST.
