| Washington. Oct. 9.-That the
slaughter of calves contributes largely
to the high cost of living in the theory
of Congressman Fred Brittten of Chi
cdgo, who has introduced q bill in the
lower house to prohibit the killing
under the age Of two years. Britten
would make it a misdemeanor for any
person, firm or corporation to slay a
calf and attempt to ship It from one
state to another. or transport it alive
for slaughter at destination.
''The emergency is great and the
American public is face to face with
a condition of meat famine that is not
merely producing prohibitive prices,
but which threatens a lack of meat
at almost any price" says the Chi
Cago congressman.
Every new born calf, according to
Britten, means the possibility of 1,400
pounds of good meat, but if the calf
is killed in comparative infancy, you
have only a few pound~ of veal.
scarcely fit for anyone to eat
He asserts that the number of
calves slaughtered has increased 100
per cent in the last 10 years, and that
statistics for 1911 show ttat 5000, 900
calves were killed in that year. If
these 100000 calves had been al
lowed to live for two years or more,
he adds, they might have been turned
into more than 1900, 100000 pounds
of beef, estimating that each grown
steer would produce about 1,4O0
pounds.
Again calling figures to the aid of
his contention, Congressman Britten
says:
In the last six years there has
been a decline of more than 80 per
cent in the number of beef cattle in
this county, while the population and
consequent demand for beef has
largely increased. Statistics gathered
by the department of agriculture
show that, on January I, 1913, there
in this country than at any time
since 1900
Argentina and other South Ameri-
can countries are now shipping
large quantities of beef into the
United States. They have plenty of
cattle for sale, for the killing of calves
is prohibited there by law
.sThere were 31500 head of beef
cattle in this country at the begin
ming of 1907, while at the beginning
of the present year there were but
sc, 600, 900 head. 1t is easy to see the
effect the enormous slaughter Of
calves has had upon the beef indus

The starboard side also was covered.
Not until the Rochelle got out OF

for the Puritan Coal Company, with
his driver, Charles Hayes, were travel

when they were set upon by highway
men in wood near Portage. Hayes
was killed and Campbell severely
wounded. Campbell whipped up his
horse and attempted to escape, but one
of the highwaymen shot the animal in
the head. Campbell was thrown out Of
the vehicle and the highwaymen shot
him again and left him for dead. The
robbers escaped with their booty and
all trace of them was lost.
Campbell recovered and proceeded
to Italy to trace his assailants. Dis
covery of Imbesi is mainly due to
Campbell's efforts.
