In one respect the performance was

MEAT INCREASE
At TIME NEEDED
Producers Responded Nobly
When Demand Was Shown
to Them.
CATTLE AND HOG FIGURES.
Government Justified in Pork Policy
Which Nov Provides Chief Sup
ply to Meet Three Billion
Pound Fat Shortage.

In line with the general plan Of con-
ServatiOn formulated by the Q. S. Food
Administration immediately following
the entrance of the United States into
the war the contribution made by the
meat producers of this country to the
war program is of particular signif1-
canoe. as it demonstrates the hearty
cooperation accorded the Food Ad-
ministratiOn by the meat producers Of
the country.
According to reports of the q. S.
Department of Agriculture, there was
an increase in cattle Of 1O, 23S, 600 head
and II. Al 900 hogs, these figures COM
piled to january 1 last. In the same
period there was decrease of $4,000
head of sheep, but indications are this
decrease will show an Increase follow
ing the latest reports.
Since January 1 unofficial informa-
ton indicates an increase in hogs Of
not less than eight per cent. and not
more than fifteen per cent. compared
with one year ago, with an increase in
average weight.
Following the request of the Food
Administration for increase in hog
production for the fall of 1918 and the
Spring of 1919 the increase may yield
not less than LOGO, 100000 pounds
more of pork products than were
available last year. Without this in
crease the shipping program arranged
by Mr.. Hoover regarding animal food
products would have been impossible.
The dressed hog products during the
three months ending September 3d.
1917, amounted to 9O3, $4,000 pounds,
while for the same months of 1913 the
production was 1,277, $4,000 pounds,
an increase of over 374,OOO,O00 pounds
for the quarter.
During the same period in 1917 in
spected slaughter records of dressed
beef showed 1858, 100000 pounds as
against 1.454,O0O,OOO pounds for the
three month period ending September
1, this year.
We must increase our meat ship
ments, especially our pork products,
to meet the added demands of the mil
lions liberated from German oppres-
sion. And at the same time we must
look forward to the rehabilitation Of
the European meat herds. The policy
which guided our meat program in the
past year has been fully justified, for
only the heavy pork production which
it has brought about will enable US
even partly to satisfy the increased
demands on US for the coming year.
There will be world shortage in fats,
and it is to the United States that Eu-
rope must look to supply its defcien-
cy. At the same time there will con-
tinue to be heavy demands for beef
Owing to the limited refrigerator ship
ping capacity European imports of
beef for some time will be limited.
The United States, Australia and
Argentine will be able to maintain a
supply that will keep all available
freezer vessels operating at capacity.
