FARMERS SAVE SITUATION.
Government Justified In Stimulation
Of Pork Production-Sevenfo
Increase Over Pre-.
War Exports.

Through increased production and
conservation we will be able this year
to export seven times our pre-war
average exports Of york products.
With the heavy demands added In car
ing for the millions who have been
freed from German oppression, the
Department of Agriculture and the
Food Administration are justified to-
day in our every action of stimulation
of hog production. In the coming year
the greatest world shortage will be in
fats, and pork will help to save this
situation. The efficacy Of the policy
of stimulated production has built up
in this country supplies which will en-
able us to supply a very large part OF
the fat deficiency of the world. In
beef there must be q shortage in Eu.
rope, due largely to limited refrigera'
tor ship capacity. All freezer ships
available, however, will be filled by
America, Argentine and Australia.
The contribution made by the pro-
ducers Of this country to the war pro-
gram as applying particularly to ami
NAL food products Is illustrated by the
following:
Reports compiled by the o. S. De-
partment of Agriculture indicate an
Increase in cattle of 1O,23S,0O0 head
and 12,441,OOO hogs These figures
were compiled to January last
In this period there was decrease
in sheep of $4,000 head. The indica.
tons are that this decrease will show
an increase. according to recent re-
ports.
=, Since January l unofficial informa.
ton indicates an increase in hogs OF
not less than 8 per cent. and not
more than Is per cent as compared
with one year ago, with an increase in
the average weight.
Following the request Of the o. s.
Food Administration for an increase
in hog production for marketing in the
fall of 1918 and the spring Of 1919 tho
increase may yield not less than 1,6O0,-
100000 pounds more Of pork products
than were available last year. With
out this increase the shipping program
arranged by Mr.. Hoover regarding an
final food products would have been
impossible.
The dressed hog products during the
three months ending September 30,
1917, amounted to 9O3, $4,000 pounds,
while for the corresponding months of
1918 the dressed hog products totaled
1,277, 5S9, 900. an increase Of over 374.-
100000 pounds for the quarter.
During the same period for 1917 the
records of inspected slaughter Of
dressed beef showed 1928. 0OO, 600
pounds as against l, 454. 900, 900 pounds
for the three month period ending
September l. this year.. w.
