home that was taken away from
them as part restitution for the steal

home furniture left them in the same

And the peculiar part of the whole
case is that because her husband has
said, 81 am being treated well here in

is drummed into folks of foreign

they know as human beings that it
is the right of every man to live.
They have heard that "a1 men are

9 !, 1872, 900 to 9S,646,0OO in the past
three years, the number of beef cattle
has decreased 1923 per cent, and of
sheep 81 per cent. The number of
swine increased slightly, 1.3 per cent,
but it did not keep up with the proper
tional growth Of population.
"This increase In value, however"
the department pointed out, docs not
necessarily mean that farmers or stock
raisers are making more, If any, profit.
On the contrary, the cost Of produc-
ton has probably increased more rap
idly than the increase in the selling
price of livestock. Producers OF farm
products are the last to receive any
benefit from higher prices paid by con.
sumers, yet they are among the first
to increase production if there Is !
prospect of realizing better returns. v
"The very fact that there Is a pres
ent shortage Of nearly 100000 meat
animals in the United States since the
census of 1910, indicates clearly that
the business is not profitable to pro
ducers.
1.-THE scarcity Of meat animals is at
tribu:ed by department experts to the
encroachment Of farms upon range ter.
ritcry, lack Of a proper range leasing
laws, shortage in the corn and forage
crop in Kansas, Nebraska and Okla
homa, increase in the value Of land
and higher cost Of labor and stock
feed; decline in stock raising on farms
In the East and South because Of poor
marketing facilities, the temptation to
sell livestock at prevailing high prices
and enormous losses from hog chol'
era"
