culture. Estimates of acres are obtained by applying estimated percentages of increase or decrease to
the published numbers of the preceding year, except that a revised base is used for applying percentage
estimates whenever new census data are available.

TABLE 152.—Hides and skins: International trade, calendar years 1909-1916.
[This table gives the classification as found in the original returns, and the summary statements for “All
countries”? represent the total for each class only so far as it is disclosed in the original returns. The
following kinds are included: Alligator, buffalo, calf, camel, cattle, deer, goat and kid, horse and colt,
kangaroo, mule and ass, sheep and lamb, and all other kinds except furs, bird skins, sheepskins with
wool on, skins of rabbits and hares, and tanned or partly tanned hides and skins. Number of pounds
computed from stated number of hides and eI
GENERAL NoTe.—Substantially the international trade of the world. It should not be ex that
the world export and import totals for any year will agree. Among sources of disagreement are these:
(1) Different periods of time covered in the “ year” of the various countries; (2) imports received in year
subsequent to year of export; (3) want of uniformity in classification of goods among countries; (4) differ-
ent practices and varying degrees of failure in recording countries of origin and ultimate destination; (5)
different practices of recording reexported goods; (6) opposite methods of treating free ports; (7) cleri
errors, which, it may be assumed, are not infrequent.
The exports given are domestic exports, and the imports given are imports for consumption as far as it is
feasible and consistent so to express the facts. While there are some inevitable omissions, on the other
hand there are some duplications because of reshipments that do not appear as such in official reports.
For the United Kingdom, import figures refer to imports for consumption, when available, otherwise total
imports, less exports, of ‘‘foreign and colonial merchandise.” Figures for the United States include
Alaska, Porto Rico, and Hawaii.

The principal items in Table 185, in the order of magnitude, are: Cured pork, lard,
lard substitute, sausage, and oleo products. The list includes a large number of
less important items.
It should be understood that the above products are entirely separate and additional
to the carcass inspection at time of slaughter. They are, in fact, reinspections of such
portions of the carcass as have subsequently undergone some process of manufacture.
