Where U. S. Farm Products Go
, Products of the American farm go to every civilized country of the world.
Out of the United States each year Is sent approximately one-half of the total
cotton crop, one-fourth of the yield of the wheat fields, one-fifth of the porker*
and huge quantities of corn and tobacco, drlad fruits and other products of
field and feed lot
The accompanying chart, prepared by the Sears-Roebuck Agricultural
foundation, shows where the principal exports go.
In the United Kingdom more of America's farm exports are consumed
I than In any other nation. The United Kingdom uses more American cotton
than any other country, ber annual consumption averaging around
bales. Germany la In the market for almost as much cotton, using 1.O1L.01*
i pounds last year. The United Kingdom Is the first market for American wheat
and flour, tafcaeea, earn airap -and condensed milk. She alao takes larja qusflr
