The exports were shown to have
fallen off 56.8 per cent, but the ship
ments of pork and lard to foreign
ports showed a great increase. The
exports were equivalent to 18,000,00c
of exports to the return of the Eti
ropean countries to cheaper sources
of supply In South America and Aus
tralia. The decline in foreign orders
in beef was so large as to bring down
the total meat production in America
four per cent, lower than the previous
year when packers were supplying a
great part of the European market
due to the impracticability of obtain
ing meats from Argentina and other
markets patronized before the war
Figures supplied by the department
show the American people ate more
veal and mutton than during the war
but the per capita consumption of
goat meat, never large, was only 0.09
pounds.
