LIVE STOCK INDUSTRY
IN THE NORTHWEST

A meeting was recently held
in Minneapolis for the purpose of
discussing and promoting the
best means of increasing the
raising of live stock in the north
west, which was attended by
half a hundred prominent bank
ers, livestockmen, business ncl.
and agricultural experts. E. W.
Decker, president of the North
western National Bank of Mimi
eapolis, opened the meeting and
the discussion with a statement
showing that although the popr-
lation Of the United States in
creased from rs, ,994, 600 to 91,-
952, 600 from 1900 to 1910, the
number of cattle on the farms of
the country decreased from &C.,
1886, coo to 61, 225,000 swine de-
creased from GA, 6S6, 600 to 5S,-
100000 and sheep from G1, 735, :
900 to 81, 100000. He then read
statistics showing the falling off
in Minnesota, North and South
Dakota for the same period.
Discussion developed the fact
that causes of the decreases are
many, and prominent among
them are:
Short feed crops in recent years
and heavy marketing of breed
ing cattle.
Sending to market of too many
immature cattle.
What these conditions have
brought about was illustrated by
a table showing the material ad-
vance in live stock prices in re-
cent years. The fact that in
some countries that are promi-
nent in live stock production of
the world the sale of heifers is
prohibited, was cited. When it
came to consideration of rene
dies for the existing situation in
the northwest there were many
suggestions. Among them were:
Stimulating of interest in stock
raising.
An educational campaign show
ing possibilities in live stock rails
ing.
Cooperation of the develop
ment association.
Cooperation of stockmen and
farmers.
The help of the bankers to
further the movement.
Prohibition by law of the mar
keting of immature cattle.
Bills before the legislature of
Minnesota, North and South
Dakota, appropriating money for
county demonstration work, were
indorsed by the meeting.
Thomas Cooper of the North
Dakota Better Farming associ-
alton spoke of the plan as one of
the most important that had de-
veloped within recent years and

The changes were commented
upon as significant of conditions
that, if continued, will affect the
Northwest very seriously and
that might be remedied by the
right kind of work.

said it could be made a big sue
cess by the right kind of effort.
The North and South Dakota
men present said that nothing
could be hoped for in quick re-
suits, but that it would need to
be a well-planned, persistent and
continued effort.
The greatest interest was
aroused by the presentation of
figures only recently issued by
the federal government, and not
yet generally known, showing
the changes in the live stock
situation in the past three years.
The comparisons showed the fol-
lowing:

TORNADO IN MIDDLE WEST

The middle west, with Omaha
as the storm center, was swept
by a terrific cyclone Sunday eve'
ming. AS a result the death list
in Omaha will reach fully 200
and the property damage will
gun into the millions.
;. The tornado swept in from the
southwest and zigzagged to the
northeast over the residence por-
zion Of the city, leaving in it's
wake destruction and carnage
from two to four blocks wide.
Fires sprung up all over this area
so thickly that firemen We're un-
able to respond to the many
alarms and houses were allowed
y burn to the ground.
The police were unable prop
arly to protect the stricken dis :
+rict and soldiers from Fort
Omaha were called out. The
town was practically under mar
.ial law.
The villages of Benson, Dun
dee and Florence, suburbs of
Omaha, were practically wiped
out. The Webster street tele-
phone station, which contained
4 score OF girls, was one of the
buildings struck, and in a mo-
.ment it was twisted and torn.
Several girls were killed out
light and many others injured.
The. morgues and hospitals
we're besieged by friends and
relatives of the dead and in
-;ured and others made frantic
efforts to learn of the fate of
loved ones.
Although a line of soldiers and
police was thrown around the
oath of the storm after it had
passed, much looting has been
.:eported.
Omaha's suburbs suffered
heavily. Ralston, southwest of
Omaha, was razed to the ground
and a half score or more are
lead. East Omaha, lashed by
.he tail of the twister, reported
houses demolished but no lives
lost.
Council Bluffs, Ia., suffered
nine dead and a score or more in
1ured and great damage to prop
arty. The worst damage was
lone and the heaviest toll ex-
a a;ted in the western part of
Omaha, in the vicinity of Twen-
ty-Fourth and Lake streets, and
from there northeast to Six
teenth and Binney streets. This
vas the residence district and
the destruction wrought was
veil nigh appalling. Whole
blocks of homes were picked up
and dashed into a shapeless
mass. Street cars were hurled
rom the track and demolished.
The storm came from the south
ike a rushing and raging tor
.'ent ofwater, demolishing every
,hing in it's path.
At Yutan, south of Omaha,
where the tornado first began it's
destructive work, ten persons are
known to have been killed and
many injured.
About the same time another
storm of equal violence swept
the country around Terre Haute,
Ind, where 200 homes were
leveled to the ground and many
lives lost. Other localities in In
diana, Illinois, Missouri, Iowa
and Nebraska were visited by
severe storms and the damage
and loss of life is appalling.
A still greater appalling catas-
trophe is that at Dayton, Ohio,
where on Monday last the entire
business and residence districts
were inundated by a terrible
storm and great loss of life re-

parade is on.
At military inquiry yesterday
afternoon on the striking down of a
flag by the soldiers last Saturday,
Mrs. Clemens told the officers that
she would die before she would give
up the flag, to anybody,
81 am willing to die with that flag"
she said. eff the soldiers want to
strike it down, they must kill me-
That was what she told the soldiers
on Saturday when she invited them
to strike her through the flag. 1t ap-
peared in the testimony before the in
quiry that the officers who stopped
the parade acted in violation of or
ders, as the miners were parading
where they had right to, and it was
not the policy of the militia to inter-
fere with them.
It appears that if war breaks out
here the governor of Michigan will
have to call an extra session of the
legislature to declare martial law, as
he has not the right to do it himself.
The mine operators have turned
down Gov. Ferris last attempt to
save the situation, and it does not ap-
pear that there is anything further
the State of Michigan can do. If
Mofitt fails in his mission, there will
be war. The miners are determined
and it runs through the entire fam
lily. They have never before been
organized, but have about fifteen
thousand members. The real diff
Guilty in the way of settlement is

The school biographies say tina
of this copper country. But the pril
American citizens, and you see in the
big parades of miners here as pretty
children as there are anywhere.
There has been no complaint to the
relief committee so far of suffering,
but there is no telling what will hap
pen when the terrific cold e comes.
There is an intense feeling among
both men and women, and they look
to the union as their only salvation.
In some parts of the mining district
little children are drilling with sticks
and have their daily marches. Here
in Calumet there is parade of sew
eral thousand men and a few women
every morning at $50, the purpose
being to show that the strikers lines
are holding fast and that there are
no assertions. Every mine is closed
except the Calumet, and the mine
bosses and workers in all the mines
who struck with the company are
working in the Calumet & Hecia. ;
There is grave danger of whole
sale murder if the state troops should
be withdrawn. Aside from the dis.
graceful condition Of few soldiers,
the nilitiamen are really a protection
for the men,. women and children
against the several hundred imported
gunner, many of whom came from

all over the district. When parades
are on they follow the strikers in au-
tomobiles and are stationed all along

HOLDS UP
LIGHT BULB BILL
FreehoIders Are investigating
Charges for Electric Supplies
Made by C. H. D. Hayward.

In an effort to find out whether ii
was being overcharged in the pur-
chase of electric light bulbs the
Board of Freeholders yesterday held
up payment on bills of Charles H. d.
Hayward. of Irvington, for $4,000. and
of the Eastern Electric Company for
$142 for further investigation.
1t was charged by Freebooter Steck
that the county was asked to pay
Hayward 81 cents each for tung-
stem bulbs, which may be purchased
in the open market for As cents, and
he will also be asked to explain an
apparent overcharge on delivery of
carbon fllament bulbs for which he
charged q cents and which sell in the
market for about IA cents.
Another Bill HoIdup.
The board also held up for fur
Their consideration a bill from the
Eastern Electric Company for $142
worth of electric bulbs. In this case
it was stated that the bill was in ac-
ccrdance with an agreement made
with the county several months ago
for furnishing the bulbs at a fixed
price, and that amount will probably
be paid but in the case of Hayward,
1t was stated there was no agree
ment. The goods IN question were
delivered by Hayward on September
~, 1912, but no explanation Is made
as to why the bill had not been pre-
scented before. His order for mean
descents was delivered more recently
and the bill presented and paid i'm
mediately, so that the apparent haste
in collecting the one and delinquency
in the other was commented upon by
some of the members.
Hnyward's Record.
An effort was made to reach Hay
ward by phone to have him appear
at the meeting. but he could not be
found and action upon the bill was
postponed. Hayward has figured in
two other instances concerning the
freeholders. Last summer he deliv-
cred 1000 bulbs at the jail, enough u

when only/a few were needed, an9
sought to collect for them, but was
obliged to take most of them back

The board received a report from
Freeholder Gilbert. chairman of the
road committee, and from Assistant
County Engineer Frederick A. Rel
mer, stating that the board was not
responsible for the closing of Ridge
wood avenue in Glen Ridge. A COM
munication had been received from
the borough officials protesting
against the closing of the street. 1t
was explained that the street was
closed by the Lackawanna railroad
during the construction of bridge,
and that the company was response
BILE for the restoration of the road
way to it's original condition.
The appointment; by County Clerk
McDonough of Anthony A. Reimer
as clerk of the new Juvenile Court at
a salary of $1,000 year was referred
to the finance committee. Resolu-
tons of coincidence were adopted to
be sent to the families Of the late
