OUR SAVED FOOD

Food Administrator Writes Presi-
dent America Conserved Ill.,
100000 Bushels Wheat.
CREDIT DUE TO WOMEN.
Meat and Fat Shipments lncreaaed by
s44,6oo,ooo Pounds.

co,servation measures applied by
the American people enabled the Unit
cd States to ship to the Allied peoples
and to our own forces overseas Ill.,
0oO 600 bushels of wheat and S44,6OO,-
600 pounds of meat during the past
wear valued in all at 1,4Oo,ooo,OOO.
This was accomplished in the face OF
serious food shortage In TINS country,
bespeaking the wholeheartedness and
patriotism with which the American
people have met the food crisis abroad.
Food Administrator Hoover, in let
fer to President Wilson, explains how
tha situatiOn was met The voluntary
conservation program fostered by the
Food Administration enabled the plling
nm Of the millions of bushels of wheat
during 1918 and the shipment Oh
meat during 1918.
The total value Of all food ship
ments TO Allied destinations amounted
to 81, 100000, all this food being
bought through or in collaboration
with the Food Administration. These
figures are all based on official reports
and represent food exports for the
harvest year that closed June ~, 1918.
The shipments of meats and fats
Gncluding meat products, dairy prod
ucts, vegetable oils, etc., to Allied des-
tinations were as follows:
Fiscal year 1861. 2, 166, ,5OO,OOO lbs.
Fiscal year 1917-19. oil, ,1OO,OOO lbs.
Increase .. S44, 900, 900 lbs.
Our slaughterable animals at the be-
ginning of the last fiscal year were not
appreciably larger than the year be-
fore and particularly in hogs; they
were probably less. The increase in
shipments is due to conservation and
the extra weight of animals added by
our farmers.
The full effect of these efforts began
TO bear their best results in the last
half of the fiscal year, when the ex-
ports to the Allies were 2, ,133, 100000
pounds, as against ,26G. 100000 pounds
in the same period of the year before.
This compares with an average of
sol 100000 pounds of total exports for
the same half years in the three-year
prewar period.
In cereals and cereal products re-
duced to terms of cereal bushels our
shipments to Allied destinations have
been:
Fiscal year 1867. .259, 100000 bushels
Fiscal year 1917-1S. $40, 800, 900 bushels
The Republican journal., 1918-08-22
$4,000, 900 bushels

increase ......... oo,3ooooo DusHeis
Of these cereals our shipments of
the prime breadstuffs in the fiscal year
1918 to Allied destinations were:
Wheat 31,OOOO0O bushels and of rye
13,9OOO 900 bushels, a total of 144,9OO,-
600 bushels.
The exports to Allied destinations
during the fiscal year 1867 We're:
Wheat 1876, 100000 bushels and rye
2,3OOOOO bushels, a total of 131 100000
bushels. In addition some 100000
bushels of 1917 wheat are now in port
for Allied destinations or en- route
thereto. The total shipments to Allied
countries from our last harvest of
wheat will be therefore, about l4l.Oo0.-
900 lshels, or total of l54,90O,o0O
bushels of prime breadstuffS. In adj
dition to this we have shipped some
100000 bushels to neutrals depend
ent upon us, and we have received
some imports from other quarters.
"This accomplishment of our people
in this matter stands out even more
clearly if we bear in mind that we had
available in the fiscal year 1867
from net carry-over and as surplus
over our normal consumption about
2OO,OOOOO0 bushels of wheat which we
were able to export that year without
trenching on our home loaf, MIR.
Hoover said. "This last year, however,
owing to the large failure of the 1917
wheat crop, we had available from net
carry-over and production and imports
only just about our normal consump-
ton. Therefore our wheat shipments
to Allied destinations represent ap-
proximately savings from our own
wheat bread.
"These figures, however, do not fully
convey the volume Of the effort and
sacrifice made during the past year
oy the whole American people. De-
spite the magnificent effort of our agri-
cultural population in planting much
increased acreage in 1917, not only was
there very large failure in wheat,
put also the corn failed to mature prop
erly. and our corn is our dominant crop.
81 am sure" Mr.. Hoover wrote in
concluding his report, that all the
millions of our people, agricultural as
we'll as urban, who have contributed
to these results should feel a very
definite satisfaction that in year of
universal food shortages in the north.
ern hemisphere all of those people
Joined together against Germany have

harvest not only with wealth and
strength fully maintained, but with
only temporary periods of hardship
sit is difficult to distinguish between
various sections of our people-the
homes, public eating places, food
trades, urban or agricultural popula-
tions-in assessing credit for these re-
suits, but no one will deny the domi-
nant part of the American women"
