Law of Supply and Demand Is
The Cause of High Price
Of Meats Now.
A CHANGE is PREDICTED
SNOW NOW COVERING GROUND,
HE SAYS, MEANS IMMENSE
CROPS AND THEY MEAN BACK
WARD SLIDE IN PRICES.
(American News Service)

Chicago, Jan. "a. j. Ogden Armour
president Of the packing firm of Ar
mour & Co., an downer of the Ar
mour Grain company, is sponsor for
the statement that present high prices
OF foods are due solely to the law of
supply and demand and for the predic.
ton that the heavy snow which now
covers the soil in all parts of the
country means immense crops, lower
prices OF corn and wheat and resultant
lower prices of meats
You can eliminate the meat packers
from the situation entirely" said Mr..
Armour, land the high prices will re-
main. The prices are high by the
laws of nature. AMI natural laws can
not be changed. The best we can do
is to comply with them. Increase
production and the prices will fall.
Situation a Serious One.
THE situation as regards the cost OF
living has become serious in this coun-
try--extremely serious. The prices Of
foodstuffs have climbed upward until
they have passed all reasonable
bounds. The cause is not difficult to
find and it is most important that it
be remedied.
Neither Armour 4 Co.. nor any 9TH
err packing concern is responsible for
the initial cost of livestock. in accord
ance with which the price to the re-
taller is high or low. The natural
law of supply and demand is RESPONSE
BILE for the prices we have to pay for
live steers sheep and hogs at the
yards.
Only a Small Advance.
The price of beef sold to the retail
or has advanced only one half cent a
pound in the last year-that is to say,
that the average price per pound for
the whole carcass. The advance in
the cost of hogs has been very heavy.
1t was only few days ago that we
bought live hogs at the rate of . cents
a pound. Think of that. Saturday
we paid S1s cents l believe. Such
prices as these have been unheard of
for many, many years.
And yet at these prices there are
fewer hogs offered than when we paid
less.
THE only permanent remedy for the
existing high prices is increased pro-
duction," Mr.. Armour said.

White EMIGRATES
west IN FORD CAR
Farmer of Butte Brings Family
to New Home in California
by Automobile

In the days of the forty-niners the
principal mode of conveyance for mi
grafton was the old prairie schooner.
Today the most widely used method is
the railway but il has fallen to George
+. White and his family to use the
automobile for such a purpose. White,
who has been resident of Butte
Mont, for. several years, decided to
come to California and settle and de-
cided TO come by motor car, too. He
purchased a 90 horsepower Ford tour
ing car and when he announced his
intention of making the long. hard trip
in the little car friends tried to per-
suade Mrs White from accompanying
the family saying that they never
could make it in>~that little light car.
White says:
we never could have made it in a
great big. heavy car. We have COW
cred some roads. especially through
heavy sand. that the little Ford could
roll over the surface. or only sink a
few inches. but big car would have
gone down A foot or two and we never
would have got traction. In some
places the roads were so badly washed
out. near Terrace. Utah. that when we
would go down into the washout the
water would run out of the radiator
and when we came up on the other side
the gasoline would not flow into the
carbureter. I'll tell you, my logbook
which | have kept up every day since
we left Butte makes interesting read
ing But on no page in the daily ac-
counts will YOU find a sign of trouble.
The only difficulty we had was gettine
caught in the ice the day after we
started. but that was not as bad as
it might have been, as the car was

in motor car during a trip through
several European countries which be-
gan last May
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Lewis. who are
almost septua genarians, intend TO com
plete a trip to the orient after motor
ing through northern Africa. returning
10 America by way Of Honolulu before
reaching home next July.
They are making the tour in a
Mitchell Six" manufactured by the
Mitchell-Lewis motor company Of Ra-
cine, Wis. of which Lewis son. Cap
tain William Mitchell Lewis. is pres
ident.
The car is being piloted by Frank Y.
Zirbes. II was Zirbes who. a couple
- years ago. carried war dispatches in
2 Mitchell car from New York 20 the
Presidio in san Francisco. and who
subsequently, acted rs pacemaker in

One of the latest improved high grade Hupmobe coupcs for city

light and we could lift it out of the
hole we had broken through. We COW
cred about 50 miles of country where
the roads were not even visible and
yet we had no trouble whatever, not
even pUncture on the entire trip.
We can not speak too highly of the
Ford car, and whenever any one says
anything to me about small cars no,
! being able to go where big ones can
shall say that I know that the Ford
can go and do what no other car, and
least of all a big car, could do.
AS matter of fact a big six cylinder
car did try TO catch up with us through
Idaho and it could not, SO you see
the Ford can travel some even over
difficult roads. The roads of CaIifor-
MIA are perfect The worst roads we
found were in Nevada.
"Of all the roads we covered and
those / have seen elsewhere don't
think Californias roads. what we have
seen OF them, could be improved much.
We found lots of sand. almost more
than we could plow through, at Ross
Fork, Idaho, and at the sinks of the
Humboldt, northeast of Dovelock. If
we ever make another long trip we
would use the Ford car and shall en-
Joy using it in touring in the southern
part of the state"

and three sons, George NJ, Irving and
Lockett. not to mention the collie dog,
which rode all the way on the run

HARD TRIP OF The
Ohio RACING GAR
Driver Ross HenwOOd Tells of
the Los Angeles=Ph0enix
Course

Automobile racing drivers who be-
lieve they have ridden over rough
roads will be interested in an account
of rough riding just received by
President C. r. Pratt of the Ohio mo-
tor car company, Carthage manufac-
turers of the Ohio car. from Ross Hen
wood and Dick Graeme. who reached
Phoenix. Ariz., in their Ohio racer after
trial trip from Los Angeles over the
course which was the scene OF one of
the toughest road races in the entire
country.
Henwood was driving the Ohio and
Graeme was sitting in the other seat
holding between his knees the big
spotlight, which had been accidentally
torn loose from its brackets by the
lurching of the car over sandhills and
through holes and sagebrush. The
other lights were not working or the
accident would not have occurred.
Henwood missed bridge across an
irrigation ditch. one front wheel drop
ping into the ditch on one side. The
car stopped, but Graeme kept on going,
carrying the spotlight, cushion and
other paraphernalia with him. He
swears he went 40 feet, and Henwood
agrees with him. Henwood also says
Graeme rammed his head through the
glass of the lamp but Graeme saws
features to plow furrow in the Yuma
road.
An examination of the car disclosed
the fact that the front axle was twisted,
but not so badly that the Ohio could
not run into Phoenix on it's own power
The axle was replaced before the car
left garage in Phoenix.
I'VE arrived here Sunday night after
a fine trip" wired Heflwood to Presi-
dent Pratt. I'VE never encountered
any obstacle. which we could not over
come. Car ran Beautifully all the way,
using about gallons of oil, so gallons
of gasoline and no water at all. 1t is
one of the toughest roads in existence
Motor was still running when we got
ready to back out of the irrigation
ditch
I've passed over some bad roads
in my time said Henwood. speaking
of the trial trip and meanwhile dig
ging sand from his left eye, but say,
you can take it from me that when it
comes to bad roads that between Phoe-
nix and Buckeye is the limit

WEAVER ON VISIT
TO EMF FACTORY
Head of the Local Studebaker
Branch Tells of Wonderful
Increase in Eight Months

Prospective automobile buyers can
not appreciate what they are getting
the actual value their money brings
then-unless they are given an op-t
portunity to go through the factory in
which their machines are made" writes
Chester n. Weaver, general mana ger of
the Studebaker Brothers company, from.
Detroit the home of the EMF COM
pany.
1T is only eight months since l last
visited Detroit, yet during that time
the progress that has been made is
nothing short of marvellous. In the
case OF the EMF company, where less
than a year ago there were four plants
there ave now eight The pay rolls
manufacturing facilities have increased
to such an extent that the company to-
day probably leads the world in this
line of manufacture.
1T is impossible to appreciate in the
aggregate what. has been done-the
human mind can not grasp it-one must
regard the different steps of the prog
ress in order to begin to appreciate the
whole. For lnere you see residential
districts razed, new factory buildings
going UP in their places the highest
type of improved machinery being in
stalled and hundreds of skilled laborers
being added to tine pay rolls constantly,
the final result of which is the turning
out of nearly 200 cars every working
day; yet the demand is not met.
"A specially built automobile makes
four trips daily to the postoffice The
mail receipts of tine EMF company
average $500 first class pieces and sew
eraI hundred pounds of newspapers, and
ma ga zines. But SO complete Is the
system that every letter is answered
the day it is received. 1t is all the
work of wonder brain in organiza-
tion. and Walter e. Flanders has right
ny been called the colossus of the in
dustry.'"
The use of motor fire Insurance pa
troll is largely responsible for a de-
crease in the fire losses in Milwaukee,
Wis. since January 1. according to Of
ficials of the Milwaukee board of fire
underwriters. There were more fires.
but the losses were far below last
year. The operation of the truck cost
10 cents mile. as compared with 25
scents mile when the service used
horses.

The new White car. therefore. was
more than usually interesting. as no
American manufacturer has been so
prominent in employing the long
stroke motor
With the characteristic energy OF
these manufacturers il was well
known that If any feature had been
found wanting in their long stroke
engine. as originally designed. the new
car would seek 10 remedy any defects
of the earlier models The fact that
months have been spent upon the de-
sign. and the most eminent engineers
consulted-both a. home and abroad

dotlbtedly feels that its manufacturing,
