Australia. New Zealand, Argentine,

chief meat importing countries, the
United KIM d6m, Germany and, in a
less degree, the other European coun.
tries. The advance In fresh meat
prices Is less than In sailed and pre-.
served meats, and In nearly all cases
the advance in beef Is less than that
in pork or mutton. The fact that the
percentage Of advance in tbs-price OF
fresh meats, especially those shipped
in chilled or frozen state, has not been
as great as the advance in sailed OF
preserved meats, is said to be due To
reductions in the past few years in
the cost of chilling or freezing and OF
