MEAT PRODUCTION SUFFERS
GENERAL DECLINE IN 1920
Veal Proves Only Exception Exports Fall of
5Ioo-New Zealand Features Imports.

1914 and 1915. True. the consump:
tion Of veal in 1920 was little more
Than one-seventh that Of beef and
one-ninth that OF pork, yet the fact
remains that it is the only class oi
domestic meat that has made a con.
sistent annual gain in recent years
New Zealand Lamb q Factor.
The table showing sheep and
lamb slaughter is marked by con-
siderable irregulsrity. The slaugh-
ter was greatest from 1911 TO 1910
after (which it declined for three
years. then increased for two years
and In 1920 again declined.
Exports and imports Of mutton
and lamb have been almost neglig-
tble until last year. when New zes-
land frozen lamb carcasses were i'm
ported in large quantities, making
an epoch In the trade. The total
weight imported during the year
was l0l ,o0o,0 900 pounds. nearly one
NTH Of the total domestic produc-
tion Of both mutton and lamb. II
is not to be assumed, however. that
this is the beginning of a permanent
trade of such magnitude. The i'm
portations. in a sense. were merely
an incident due to the war.
The New Zealand product, as we'll
as that from other sources. nor
mally is absorbed by the English
market. but the unusual conditions
following the war caused the Brit
ish last year TO be overstocked, and
the meat found an outlet in this
country. This quantity OF lamb. II
may be remarked, is of somewhat
less significance on the other side
than IL is here, since according &c
hgures previously published. the
average Briton consumes relatively
about seven times as much mutton
and lamb as the average American
while the average for France 1,
nearly four times as much.
Consumption of mutton and lamf
in the United States is only about
six pounds per person per snnuu
and is very small compared to beet
and pork. II is smaller even thar
veal, OF which aboU eight pounds
per person is consumed.
Pork Exports slump.
Pork production in 1890 fell con,
siderably below the high recor,
made in 1919. whsn msrketinEi
were unusually large owing TO tn,
high prices prevailing during a par
OF that year. including the highest
ever paid for live hogs. Neverthe.
less. the consumption of pork wa
slightly greater in 1890 because o.
the heavy decrease in exports, TIL,
exports OF bacon and hams fell of
more than one-half. the totals foi

the production declined at the rate
of 100000 pounds a year. Owing
to decreased exports the consump-
tion in 1919 and 1920 was nearly
stationary.

grower will receive his money reg

Such a method, especially is also
applied. to the grain crops of the
North. would undoubtedly have q
profound influence in stabilizing
railroad transportation. At present
an enormous extra equipment is re-
quired to move the peak-load of the
crops.
/ Other advantages, which are
manifold. can only here be touched
upon. At present fully two-thirds
'of the cotton in the South Is sold

Scientific grading is one of the great
purposes of the associations. Also
by combining their resources the
cotton or tobacco growers can do

growers have done so successfully

the country to conduct their busi-
ness, not only selling. but shipping,

have done with wonderful success).

The possibilities of these organ

Mill TO RECEIVER
KauIl Company of Kansas City
a 100000 Corporation.
Stockholders Charged Officers
With Misuse of Funds.

At the request of stockholders, Judge
John G. Pollock, of the United States
district court, Thursday appointed AL
bert Newman and Charles Cation as
receivers, under $4,000 bond, for the
Kaull Milling company, of Kansas City.
a $500, 900 Kansas corporation, accord
ing to the order filed in the federal
court here today.
A petition filed on behalf of the
stockholders by K. 1. Pottinger, of
Kansas City, and Louis Miller and w.
T. ,Downer, of Alva., Okla, charges w:
J.fand H. j. Kaull. founders and until
recently, heads of the corporation, with
fraud. 1t is claimed they misused
$4,000 worth of the company's funds
and appropriated large amount Oh
stock for which they did not pay.
The company is in deep financial
straits, according to the petition. An
audit made December 81, 1920, showed
the company's liabilities to be $685.
2S9, with only s77,2S9 in assets, 1t Is
claimed. This is compared with the
condition of April 1, 1919, when the
liabilities were only 1921, 4O9 ana as
sets were S2e9,519, it is alleged. me
losses of the company between shese
dates. it is charged. were due in large
measure to the acknowledgement and
inefficiency of the Kaulls.
1t is charged that the kauils
greatly injured the credit of the con-
Germ by depositing and pledging, as
company, of Kansas City, warehouse
receipts for $4,000 worth of flour
and wheat represented to be in stor-
age. AS a matter of fact, only about
S27 900 worth of flour and wheat was
on hand. is the claim.
The Kaull Milling company was in
corporated in April. 1917, and owned
a mill at Glen Elder. Kan. 1t was
then decided to spread out, and thru
the sale of stock a site was purchased
in RosedaIe and a mill erected there
also.
Included in the fraud charges
against the Kaulls is the assertion
that they made false statements to the
secretary of state to obtain permission
at various times to increase the cap1-
tai stock. 1t is alleged that w. j.
I[aull took $4,000 of the company's
money to pay a personal debt; that
the two paid themselves $4,000 in
salaries without authority of the
board Of directors, while representing
to stockholders that they were acting
without salary. on December "A,
1920. the stockholders took action
which resulted in the resignation of
the Kaulls. The new officers were:
DIR. Charles Cation. president; DR.. H. r.
st. John. vice president. and Ray
Green. secretary treasurer.
Reorganization of the concern,
rather than it's sale, is asked by the
petitioners.
