BILLIONS
. FOR FOOD
u. S. MUST HELP
Immense Increase in Expor-
tation of Beef, Bacon,
Wheat and Condensed Milk
Demanded

That the United States is now
actually feeding the world is a
conclusion to be drawn from sta
tfstics recently issued in bulletin
from the National City Bank of
New York.
The total value of foodstuffs
sent out of this country in the
year just ended amounted, accord
ing to this compilation, to over
$2,000,000,000 against an average
of less than 00,000,000 per an
mum before the war--the average,
that is
AS matter of fact, the value of
foodstuffs exported from the coun-
try in the decade preceding the
war averaged only $3.50, 900
per annum and never in any year
reached as n UGH as 100000, 900.
In the calendar year 1915, how
ever, the first full year of the war,
it amounted to $1,O12,000,0 900; in
1916 it was $1,105, 100000; in
1917, $1,315, 900, 900, and in 1918
crossed the 2,O00,00O,OO0 line.
The official figures of exports to
foreign countries in 1918 give us a
total of over 100000, 1000, but
to this must be added the amount
sent on government vessels and
not included in the official reports
of the custom houses, plus those
sent to our own colonies not class
ed as exports. Only then do we
get the grand total of foodstuffs
OF domestic production passing out
of the United States in the calen-
daT year 1918 which was in ex-
cess of S2,000,000,000, or more
than four times the annual aver
age in the decade preceding the
We
This large increase in the value
of fooastuffs exported was, how
ever, due in some degree to in
creased prices, but quantities also
showed very large increases.
The total quantity of fresh beef,
for example, exported in the cal
endar year 1913 amounted to ap-
prcximately 100000 pounds
in the fiscal year 1914, all of
which Immediately preceded the
tity than was ever exported in a
single year, even in the highest
record of the years in which fresh
beef was passing out of the Unit
ed States il very large quantities"
Again, bacon, in the calendar
year 1918, showed a total of over
1909, 100000 pounds against less
than 100000 pounds in the
year Immediately preceding the
war, land aggregated more than
twice as much as in any earlier
year" Condensed milk is again
cited.
The expectations before the war
never exceeded 21,000,000 pounds
but they amounted in 1918 to
553, 100000 pounds. OF wheat.
Of which a large proportion was
in 1918 sent in the form OF -four,
the total spared to foreign coun-
tries is far in excess OF that Of
