The farmers are not raising nearly
a sufficient number of animals to keep
the packing houses in operation on
anything like full Slime, and this re-
suits in heavy losses, owing to lack Of
volume of business. And there seems
to be no prospect of relief. Despite
the higher prices for livestock of all
kinds, statistics show that the farmers
not only are not increasing their pro-
duction of meat food animals but that
such production is decreasing at an
appalling rate"
Among other causes for the short
age Of meat, h report pointed out,
were the loss Of meat food animals
through preventable diseases and 9Th
~unthinking slaughter of calves and
especially heifer calves."'
The committee appointed to confer
with government officials of the food
laws, in its report challenged the wis
dom Of the federal government dicta,-
ing what ingredients shall be used in
meat products. "
"Our principal difficulty has been
that those in power know practically
nothing of the actual conditions of
packing house operation. We have
been in the hands of capable, well
meaning scientists on one hand and
political offices on the other"
Inc report declared That the action
of the government in changing the
character of labels on aimed goods,
after once they had been accepted by
the government cost the packing in
dustry $3.50, 900 annually"
Sneakers at the National convention
OF butter and egg men urged the need
of national legislation to regulate the
storage of these products, in order to
avoid repeated charges of price rails
ing and monopoly. E
This conference should advocate
national legislation on the subject of
storage" said J. L.. Homigman of
New York in an address. IF every
state has its own laws according to
the length Of time we may keep eggs
and produce, we will soon have a con-
dition like those caused by the pres
| emit divorce laws"

PLEAsURABLE COUNTRY LIFE.

Everyone in this northwest country,
pendent on the farm for prosperity,
and even existence, to an unusual de-
gree, will agree with Governor Cox
Of Ohio and Governor Dunno Of Hill
! nois, who yesterday declared that the
only solution Of the cityward drife
from the farm problem. was to make
country life more attractive. And
while other states are discussing this
problem, North Dakota Is going about
1t by practical means to make country
life more attractive.
One of the most important features
of the work Of the North Dakota Bet
ter Farming association Is the forma-
; ton of farmers clubs In a great
many North Dakota counties, and in
scores of communities, these farmers
clubs have already been organized.
They meet to study how to make their
farms give better and surer returns
and how to make their life pleasanter
and in this very act of meeting they
are solving n phase of the problem,
the question or SOC1aDll1ty.
There are many other agencies at
! work in North Dakota along the same
line. The corn, wheat, potato, meat
raising n other contests that are
becoming SO popular throughout the
state. are making farm life more at
tractlve by making it more interest
, ing. These contests are especially
! practical because they interest the
boys and girls, which is all that is
necessary to keep the boys and girls
on the farm.
Farm life is attractive, where it is
made interesting. 1t is interesting
when the person on the farm gets
busy working u some problem or
finds some activity in which he has
competition. Undoubtedly one Of the
greatest things that ever happened in
North Dakota was the inauguration of
the contests.
There are other agencies at work In
North Dakota, which are not particu:
larly Indigenous to the state. These
include the agricultural college, the
farmers Institutes, etc.
All these agencies working in har-
mony, are creating a new atmosphere
in the state. There is a keener pa
triotism noticeable in North Dakotans
in. the past few years. The people Of
h state are beginning to feel, in an
ever increasing degree, that this is a
good state in which to settle down and
make a permanent home for life.

Metamorphosis in the Arctic

Geographical Magazine: Wild Great
ures along the Arctic coast of North
America are changing. Contrasting
pleasantly with the gradual retreat
and approaching determination of
both the caribou and the muskox is
the increase in numbers of three
game an1mals-the muskrat, the beav-
er and the moose. Half a century ago
to the westward Of Great Bear lake
moose were found only on the west
side OF the Mackenzie river. They have
since crossed the river until something
like twenty years ago they reached
the west end of the Bear lake, some
ten years 6 they got to the east end
OF the lake, and three vars ago the
hrst moose were seen on the shores
OF Coronation gulf by the Rae river
Eskimo. The history of the spread of
the muskrat a been somewhat SINH
lar to that of the moos in this dis
trict, although it seems to have pre-
coded the moose by a decade or so in
others. They are now found in many
Of the small lakes right down to the
coast OF Coronation gulf and Dolphin
and Union straits. but there are hun
dreds OF Eskimo now living who can
remember the time when thew first
saw these animals. Being strange
through neWnesS, they were consider
ed supernatural, and are so even to-
day. Although some tribes are hard
put to it to find skins enough for
clothing, and although they we'll use
the inferior skin Of the marmot, they
threw away both the skin and meat of
the muskrats and use only the tails.
which are employed as charms and
talismans. The beaver, too, is spread
ing toward the sea. although he has
not yet attained SO high a northing
as the muskrat, and will probably al
ways be confined to the timber coun-
| fry.

OF BEEF FAMINE;
PACKERS SOUND WARNING

The responsibility for averting a
future meat famine was put up to
small fa~rmersAby speakers at the
eighth annual convention of the Am
erican Meat Packers convention at
Chicago Monday. All the speakers
agreed thai if the decrease in meat
production of the last ten years is not
stopped, the question of the meat sup
ply for the United States will be most
serious.
Among the remedies suggested by
the speakers were:
Every small farmer should raise at
least two beef steers a year to offset
the decreased production Of the. great
ranches Of the west.
The remaining ranges should be cut
up in farms to put all farmers on an
equal footing.
Development of the hills of New
England with their bountiful springs
and prevailing shade as a beef produc-
ing country.
Substitution of corn for cotton in
the southern states and the conse-
quent development Of the cattle and
hog production.
The report of the executive commit
tee sounded the first note Of the dan
ger of a famine.

Grand Forks Times: There are
many things that cannot be. grown
successfully in North Dakota, and
many things which it would be folly
to try to persuade people could be
grown here. This is not a tropical
or sub-tropical state, and the growing
Of tropical and sub-tropical fruits and
plants had better be left to those
localities fitted by nature for that
purpose But North Dakota can raise
her own apples" and there is no good
reason why she is not doing it. We
d. not maintain that this state can
.proftably grow apples for export.
Such a, thing may be possible, but we
doubt 1t. But we can and should
raise all the early fall apples that we
need for local use. Apples are raised
and ripened all over the state, clear
up to the Canadian boundary. This
year has not been an unusually good
one for apples, but the fruit has been
ripe for weeks. and the first killing
frost has just occurred. The apples
raised in this section are practically
all what are known as fall apples, as
harder winter fruit. But the fruit
that ripens here is unusually sound
and firm, and would keep well into
the winter. The chief need for the
growing Of it Is shelter. This can be
provided by mean of b grove that
should be growing on every farm, ana
with such q grove there lis no reason
in the world why every North Dakota
farm should not produce it's few bar
rels OF apples for the CONSUMPTION ot
the family. The cost OF raising the
fruit would be nex to nothing, and
its value would be iaestiraahie.
