L Some of the - particulars of the situation are as follows: : The beef industry in the United States faces a ' most serious : crisis! For a decade before the outbreak of rwar in Europe farmers and ranch men' had been urged to increase beef cattle production because the ; indus- try was not ' keeping pace with the growth of population. The lowest ebb in production was reached in the fiscal year ended June 30, 1914, when we; practically ceased to have fresh dressed beef for , export, but began to import it ; from the Southern- Hemisphere. The campaign, for increased production began to bear fruit with the outbreak of rthe : war and beef aagin gained volume in our exports., - Prices urose and farmers were encouraged.' to expand . their -beef-making operations!. With the entrance of the United States into the t war a' rigorous and successful ef fort .was made to Increase the. sup ply of meat for our army especially beef, by civilian, self-denial. Hotels and restaurants at ; the 'request of the government, reduced the size of their beef portions " and regularly left beef off their menus. ' " Private families by thousands did likewise. Farmers and ranchmen exerted, themselves to the -utmost at great risk in order that our soldiers and sailors could have the best food that skill and loving care 1 could 1 produce The result is history. - From an ex 151,000,000 pounds in 1914, was exported 590,00,000 pounds' of beef and beef products in i 9 1 8 almost equaling, the great surplus " of 1901, w hen : bur population was 35,000,000 people; less than- now. The exports of 191S were treble the three-year pre-war average - ,, The war. is over. ln a little while the presence of American soldiers In Europe will be a memory of noble sacrifices. We must not forget ! that the .principal use for the beef which we shipped overseas in such quantity was for .the men in uniform! Europe, short of food though it is," does - not j need beef, from the United States so, much as . it needs our pork-5 The stocks of . cattle in . the most ; of Europe "have not suffered " seriously in numbers during the war.' Indeed, outside the areas 'actually overrun by the -contending armies, cattle stocks . have , fairly ; held their own and in some , cases t even increaseol!. Stocks of .hogs and , sheep have suf fered much more severely than bave C ROWEL ;1 Have your meetings at cattls. It is alio veil Iinovn tlit Europe turned to Couth. America cs-d Australia for beef and lamb 3 coon as shipping . conditions permitted. England and Italy are now buying in those markets. The United States, however, is the, only large pork sur plus nation, and Europe, suffering for fats with her . stocks'"' of swine greatly reduced, can consume our; pork surplus readily. The beef and lamb now awaiting market"on our farms rand ranges ' must; therefore, find its outlet, n6t overseas t but, at home,.-y.- ':rv In 1918, for the first time In many years "the production 4 of, meat ani mals "' gained 1 ground Jin the v losing race with growth of' population. This "was made possible Dy .the ear nest and patriotic. efforts of. our live- ,fAt rrr!nrfiraJ ajiri unless, beef and ,bwv r- - - - lamb consUoa ITpOw ineased to.JU potential maximum, without, needless waste, we are in. danger t made under war pressure. - .., its normal . status. . The hotel and high class family trade are not con suming the quantities of cHolce beef which they used ;bef ore the war, and the families of moderate income are eating" only . cheaper cuts, the price of which must 1 compensate ? in . part for that of, the' cuts tor which there Is a smaller demand. ViTJie fact Is evident that many persons who de sire to eat more meat; especially beef and lamb; are denying .them selves. " .". ' 1 v. 1 ' People do not realize that the. ne-t cessity for conservation A of foods, especially meat, no longer exists,, ex cept as a matter of reasonable econ omy and prevention of sinful waste. We: have in. , .prospect v; the , greatest wheat crop in our, history;; we had in 19 18 by far) the largest production ot pork we ever had, as well as:a great increase in -our -beef lamb and. dairy ( production.

Influence. in the successful ; prosecution ' of,, the food campaign'' and, inciaentaiiy, tne winningSof, the i war. These f'Save Pood signs should now be j dlsre garded. . Consumers are unconscious ly working harm to, themselves and to , livestock produpers by now: re stricting j their consumption of meat. This situation is a real menace to the farmer ami ? to the consuming public, as well. Many cattle raised in response to the demand for meat production for the army are now maturing,-and if marketed on a falling market will cause heavy loss to the producers, with the result that . de clining production may,' be expected in the future. Stockmen do not de serve to be penalized for their pa tribtism,'-but-should be supported by the consuming public in an' effort to restore consumption to the . normal without delay. " s , PLANT DISEASE FOUND. J J ,1 Appearance of plant diseases ; in the grain crops of Virginia, Geor gia, West Virginia, Indiana and Illi nois, has resulted in the ' issuance of a ; call for a meeting at the de partment of agriculture in Washing ton July 15 to consider the advisa bility of ; prohibiting or , restricting the movement "of wheat,' .oats ; and Dworsky's Exponent V .of ..Desigii'.Weight ; , , ; rand f M ' s .
