MORE CHICKENS SOLUTION or
MEAT PROBLEM.


Our friends, the vegetarians. think
the joke Is on the meat eaters and
console themselves with the thought
that Americans will eventually get
down to diet Of cabbage. beans. po-
tatoes and turnips.
This seems to depend on whether
people in general raise chickens.
In six years beef production has
dropped 30 per cent. over 1.419 600 less
cattle were slaughtered at inspected
slaughter houses in that time. short
age Of 7S0O0O.OOO less pounds Of beef,
and meat consumption has dropped
ten pounds per capita in three years.
This is ascribed to the high price Of
feed, cattle ticks. hog cholera and
other diseases. the slaughter OF calves
and the fact that grazing country is
being rapidly changed into farms.
Some way must be found to ill this
food shortage.
Authorities at Washington take a
pessimistic view Of the whole situa-
ton. z- ~
They hold no hope for an increased
or adequate beef and pork supply for
the future. but even say of poultry,
There is. therefore. no prospect Of in
crease in products Of this class In
greater ratio than the increase in pop
ulation." We rather think this state

Missouri, Iowa. Illinois. Indiana. Ohio.
Kansas and Texas made vast advances
last year and produced 80 per cent Of
the poultry crop Of the country. II
other states get on the same hustle
there will he chickens and eggs to
burn.
Farm hens are said to lay but sixty
eggs per year. and at this rate they
reach 1891 ,311,371 dozen annually.
What vast increase better care or
better bred hen would make in the egg
crop! There were $685.. 1853 United
States farms that reported poultry.
Let these and our professional poultry
men and our town hen men just do
a little better. and the vast aggregate
Of increase will solve the meat prob
lem in short order.
