Recent discussions regarding the
a p ;reit d*'due in the exportation
o foods uITb from the Un>ted Stat ‘S
end the increasing share of its food
t..ffs required by its own popula
:i lend Interest to a statement
f cai-ig \h«- share of ti.e wheat and
t m i r. s exported and retained for
consumption, i uepectively, and the
quantity of moats and food animals
exported during a term of years, the
record having been brought down to
the e*:d of the flsetl year 1909.
These figure.; of the Bureau of
b .it ic. make i apparent that the
•hare exported of tho wheat and corn
crops of the L’i.ito 1 Stales h is been
materially lose td.toe 1903 than at
any time during the twenty years
Immediately preced-ng t a date.
The figures of 1909 show 11-1.000,
000 bushels of wheat, i . In ling
flour in terms of wheat exported in
the fist a! year (ending June 30. and
lb s exportation in the twelve months
ended June 30 ps compared with the
crop of the calendar year 190S. As
to tho production itself, the flgur
utilized by tho bureau indicate that
there Is material decline in quan
tity produced, hut that tho decrease
in exiK>rtation is apparently due t°
the fact that consumption is growing
more rapidly than production, Tho
crop of 190N Is given at 665.000,
000 bushels, n;ul lias only been ex
ceeded on five oecas'ons in the his
tory t)f the country, while the expor
tation in the fiscal year fallowing the
production of this 6G5.0O0.0O0 bush
els was but lid,000,000 bushels, a
figure less than 1^ any year front
1S91 to the present time, with the
* xceptions of 1906 and 1906.
Corn exportations also show a like
falling off and a like reduction in the
share which they form of the total
crop. The percentage of the corn
crop sent out of the country is al
ways much less than that of wheat, j
the bulk of the enormous corn crop
of the l tilted States being trans
f >rmed into meats before exporta
tion.
.Meat exjiortations also show a
marked falling off when compared
with their export record during the j
decade. The exports of fr»>eh
beef, which in 1901 amounted to
352. 00 i 0> pounds, and in 1908 to
over 200,000.000 pounds, propped to
123.000.000 in 1909; of salted or
pickled beef. which in 1903 were*
T6 000,0C0 pounds and in 1908 23.
000.000. amounted to but 15.000,
000 poun s in 1909.
