In canned vegetables, the goal calls
for marked increase in output over
this years record production. The av
erage provided per person would be
approximately 32 pounds in 1912,
about two pounds higher than for
1911 and higher than for earlier years.
Fruits: The production of fruits in
fresh, dried, or canned form is expect
ed to increase slightly, from 148 mil
lion tons this year to ID million tons
in 1912. There may be slightly less
of the IL major fresh fruits, due TO
larger requirements for dried and
canned fruit. At 1875 pounds per per-
son in 1912, against 1865 pounds in
1941, the average consumption if the
goal is reached would still be greater
than it has been for all except three
recent years.
If the goal is attained, canned fruit
consumption, excluding pineapple, will
average II pounds per person in
1912, half pound less than in 194l
but again more than in any year ex-
cept 1910 and 1871. Dried fruit con-
sumption is expected to increase
slightly in 1912 to an average Of
about six pounds per person.
