MRS. CRANE ASSAILS
SECRETARY WILSON
Kalamazoo Woman Says Inspec-

WASHINGTON. May 9.-Assailing
Secretary Of Agriculture Wilson for
his alleged lax enforcement of the fed
eral meat inspection law, and plead
Ing that consumers be protected from
diseased, unsound, unwholesome
meats, unfit for human consumption,
Mrs. Caroline Bartlett Crane, Of Kali
mazoo, Mich, today urged the Moss

Neyson. OF Wisconsin
Mrs. Crane charged that the care

provided in the law, has been liz.
nored
Animals are merely driven by the
inspectors, several abreast, she de-
clared. The inspection is simply
done at the request of the packers,
and only for the purpose Of enabling
them TO avoid buying cattle that
would prove loss. asked many of
the inspectors in the Chicago yards
about il and got this reply.
1t is absurd and preposterous for

she declared was "a brief for the

In the belief that there are plenty OF
hogs back TO meet the pressing de-
mands OF the current fresh pork
trade. This conclusion seems 10 be
warranted by recent arrivals which
have been much heavier than during
the latter part OF last month.
Farmers are very busy, just now,
and lighter receipts are looked for
during the remainder OF the present
month. Values should harden mater
Tally, with lighter receipts, as the de-
mand for fresh pork was hardly ever
better. After corn planting, heavier
arrivals are looked for with gradu-
ally receding price list Heavy hogs
are the best sellers, this year, con-
dition exactly the opposite OF last
year when light weights we're leading

May last year was $50 TO $6.15, and
the best that heavy hogs could get
was $500 to $5.75 per cwt. II looks

as soon as they will do to go.
The real stellar attraction in the
market for farm livestock Is the de-
mand for horses. Probably more
automobiles and motor trucks are be-
ing sold this spring than ever before,
but in spite Of this fact, horses
are also selling at record figures. A
matched team of heavy horses that
could have been bought for $500, i've
years ago, will cost from $500 to $l,-
900 now. Buyers are riding the coun-
try in all directions in the effort to
secure few of the heavy kind but
with very little success.
