This large increase of 35,934,760
pounds in meat imports over the corre-
spending months of 1905. and in lard of
1S.S34.339 pounds, stands in contrast
with the gain in meat imports of 1905
over the whole year 1904 of about A.
O92.00O pounds. An idea of the sin-
creased demand for meat in Germany
can be formed by considering the fact
that this very increase of 1902. 900
pounds occurred during a year when
the quantity of meat obtained from
killings in Germany exceeded that of
the previous year by about 154,332,00
pounds.
1t is evident that the domestic sup
ply does not fill Ihe rapidly growing
demands for meat in Germany, and only
recently the Munchener Allgemeine Zei-
tung. a leading German newspaper sup
posed TO be in touch with Government
circles in a discussion of the veXed
meat problem ventures the following
admission: According TO the most re-
liable Information, the conditions pre-
vailing at present still show that the
production of useful cattle for killing
(the German definition of the term cat
tie including swine. mutton, etc., has
gone back rather than advanced. while
the meat demand from the population
is rapidly increasing" Continuing, the
article predicts prolonged high prices

announces disinclination on the part of
the United German Governments" TO
again open the doors to foreign cattle
and meat. emphasizing the sanitary ne
cessity of continued restrictions now
exercised so stringently. In this con-
nection il may be stated that these
agrarian interests look with great ex-
pectations TO still stronger control of
the domestic market prices for meat at
the end of the present agreement be-
tween the United States and Germany
suspending the enforcement of the new
tariff against importations from the
former country until June 80 next
The upward tendency of meat prices
in Germany has been steady for the
past two years, as shown by the fol-
lowing figures on bovine-cattle prices
prevailing at the four largest slaugh-
ter-house centers of Germany during
September, 1904. 1905 and 1906 to
which is added the 1906 August scale
of prices to illustrate the large rise
brought about within one month The
figures given represent so Kilograms,
or 1923 pounds, and relate to tho
