"Likewise, all other steps, from pro ducer to cdnsumer become more costly hence the high prices." says a statement of the bureau. "But the unprecedented prosperity of the peo ple as a whole enables them to af ford the increased cost. In fact, labor ing people probably consumed more meat during the past year than In pro-war times." Figures made public by the bureau show that total dressed meat produc tion, including lard, during 1918, ag gregated 20,129.800.000 pounds. As compared with production during 1917 this was an Increase of 3.812,500,000 pounds, three-fourths of which was in pork and the remainder in beef. Meat exports during 1918 almost doubled those of 1917 rising from slightly less than 1.760,000.000 pounds to over 3,600,000,000 pounds. Despite the fact that these figures do not in clude shipments to American military forces abroad, the surplus was so great that the enormous extra export demands made little impression on it, said the bureau. Fourteen Billion, rounds Consumed. The aggregate 1917 consumption of dressed meat and lard In the United States was approximately 14,600,- 000.000 pounds, but in 1918 it rose to 17.250,000.000 p6unds. This means, after allowing for increase in popu lation, an, addition of twenty-three pounds for every man, woman, and child in the country. The total nubmer of cattle slaugh tered in 1918. 16 estimated at 15,750. 400, as against 13,723.900 in 1917. Beef produced from them in 1917 to taled 6,680,000,000 pounds and 7,641, 000.006 pounds in 1918. The bureau stated that in the ag gregate more meat Is eaten In the United States than in any other coun try in the world, although some J sparsely settled countries raising such meat have a larger per capita consumption. Fanner Snved the Day. In conclusion, the bureau said: "While the American people as a whole through their abstinence avert ed the immediate crisis of a meat shortage. It was the farmer who was really the big factor in the ultimate situation. The producer, of course, was expected to do his part, but he did it with such powerful effect that In a single year the meat shortage was turned into a pronounced sur plus. "Thus, in 1918. there was not only meat enough to supply all foreign demands' compatible with the re stricted shipping facilities, but a great ly enlarged quantity was available I for home consumption.
