Slufis, is not borne out by the record
for the calender wear 1912 The high
pricesa continue despite the fact that
these items are rapidly disappearing
from the exports of The country. One
instance of the decrease in this class OF
exports, as reported by the bureau OF
commerce and labor.is that We export
ted but $4,000 cattle In 1912, against
l64 900 in 1891 and 277 900 In i9oS.
The value of the entire exports in
1912 was about 81 ,GO0, 900, speaking in
round turns, against $l4 ,0GO 900 in 1911
On the other hand, the Expectations OF
cattle in the year just ended amounted
to over 300,tN in number aud their
value to over 80 900 600 against but 49,
900 in 1904, valued al Sii0, 900. In view
of the fact that the prices are inc.eas-

more forcible argument that the cattle
supply of the United States is rapidly

The decrease in exports of meat and
dairy products and in brcadStufis is
quite as heavy AS that in the ex ports
of cattle. Further indication OF the
