Meats For Export.
For sale by J. L. McCormic

According to the Official statement
of the federal bureau Of statistics,
American packers sent to foreign
countries during the month of April
fresh beef valued at s., 1921, I62, Sl,000,-
600 worth of canned and sailed beef
and So, 651, 245 worth of fresh and salt
ed pork. The mere statement of
these figures would indicate a plenti-
f1l supply of meats. But a compari-
son with the export figures for April,
1901, will remove the impression, for
in the month last noted the fresh beef
exports were So, $50. 279, or S665, III
greater than in April, 1902. The
falling off in pounds was even more
marked, the drop being from 80, 49,
DAT pounds in April, 1901, to 22,661,-
Sol pounds last month, decrease of
some 30 per cent, despite the induce
ment of higher prices abroad. In
April, 1901, the average price of ex-
port beef in Chicago was close to 8
cents per pound-the average price
last month was 10 10 cents
AS to live cattle we exported only
Is, 902 last April, valued at 81, GAS, 942,
against IS, 1868 exported in April, 1901,
valued at So, lag, O18-a falling off of
approximately so per cent both in the
number of cattle and in the value.
OF live hogs we exported only sol last
April, valued at Sc, 100 against 1855
for April year ago, valued at. S14 658
"a falling off of 81 per cent in the
number exported. If the figures here
nOted-taken from the official bulletin
Of the treasury department-dO not
indicate a falling OFF in the meat sup
ply then it would be difficult to de-
termine how that could be shown.
Another point worth noting in the
meat situation is this: Last month
showed a heavy gain in the amount of
canned meat exported, and a slight
increase in the export of salted beef,
in spite of the advance in prices.
This shows that the American pre-
pared meats are not losing favor and
that the packing companies are max
ing the best possible use of the poorer
grades of cattle, the latter always
showing increase when fed stuffS are
high.-Denver News.

The builders of the greater Kansas
that is to be will not be content To
confne their activities to the super
fetal cultivation of the soil. They
will exploit her inexhauStible under
flow of the pureSt water man ever

of beautiful cities. Her gypsum beds
will be converted into fertilizers with
which to enrich the wOrnout fields Of
the East. Reservoirs will be provid-

brought under the control of man and
all available supplies of moisture will
be directed toward the service of the
people in their various Industries.

the Klondike output, is expected this

the republican party for two decades
or more, and now when he gets around
on tie side of right and humanity,
some of his party at once begin to call

be that they feel that their only mis-
