In comparing the United STATE
along with other nations of the vol
in producing and importing ho
stuffs, the Agricultural Outlook MI
lished by the United States deFarl
men Of agriculture says:
The United States in recent ya'
has been as large an importer Of Tod
stuffs as exporter; therefore she cd
not be classed as a surplus produc
of foodstuffs. This is contrary to El
ular impression. 1t is true that 81
is an exporter OF certain articles b
she is an equally large importer
other articles. In this classidcsti
tea and coffee are included with Tod
stuffs. In edible grains the proud
ton is % per cent more than y
amount retained; the production
meat is six per cent more-tl
is, exports Of meat equal six per cd
Of that retained in the United Saia
for consumption; the production
dairy products is 20 per cent nai
than consumed; the production
poultry is just about equal to Cd
sumption; of vegetables, enc per ca
less.
An investigation into the prod1
/ ton. imports and exports Of food pro
ucts of various countries indicaa
that England produces about 81 2
cent of her food requirements al
imports (net) about At per cent; b
| GUM produces 81 per cent and

/ IS per cent, and imports l. per cal

Canada produces % per cent me-
