Meats in Storage"

Every working day Of the year
100000 pounds of meat are required
to supply home and export needs-and
only 10 per cent of this is exported.
These facts must be kept In mind
when considering the u. S. Bureau OF
Markets report that on June l, 1919,
there were l,34sOOO.OOO pounds Of
meats in cold storage. If the meat in
storage was placed on the market it
would only be 20 days supply.
This meat is not arti6cially withheld
from trade channels to maintain or
advance prices.
Meats in storage consist Of
IS per cent (approximate) hams, bacon. ETC.,
