this respect will do much to restore
the demand for horses, so that govern
ment specialists, while ridiculing the
notion of a horse famine, are convinced
that farmers will find it profitable to
use good work mares for breeding more
stock
As for hides the situation is not quite
so clear, but even here there has been
much gross eXaggeratiOn. From two
fifths to less than one-half of the
leather used in this country is import
ed about 25 percent Of the foreign
hides coming from Argentina and Is
percent from Canada, Il percent from
Mexico, S1k percent from. European
Russia and IL percent from France.
Since the outbreak of the war, i'm
portations have shown a certain fall
ing off those for September, 1914, for
example, being only 34,OOO0O0 pounds
instead of 45,00O,OO0 pounds the year
previous. There is, however. little
reason to suppose that this decrease
will be permanent or of sufficient i'm
pOrtance to create any real scarcity.
Since the great bulk of the imported
hides comes from countries that are
not at war shipments are not inter-
fered with in any way, and the only

CATTLE IN UNITED STATES
SHOW GAIN OVER LAST YEAR
Government Statistics Show That All Glasses of Livestock
in the United States Have Increased in Numbers Puts
an End to Wild Predictions Of so Cent Meat;
Swine Show Greater Increase Than Others.

by the fact that the production of swine
can be increased more rapidly than
that Of other classes of livestock and
consequently an enlarged demand can
be met more readily.
Alarming Predictions Unwarranted.
The prediction of so cent meat and
SO shoes was accompanied by the
declaration that France alone has taken
from America nearly 5000 horses
within the last five months and that
the other countries at war have drawn
upon our resources in the same pro-
portion.
The facts are that more horses were
on the farms of the United States on
Jan. ]. 1915, than there were a year
before, the increase being 233, 900 head,
or IL percent. So far from France
alone having taken 100000 horses from
US the total exports since the war be-
gan have certainly been much less than
100000 and very likely not over $4,000.
Since there are approximately 25 600 600
horses altogether in the United States
the drain on account of the war is
scarcely alarming.
Value Of Farm Horses Declines.
It is. in fact, pointed out by the gov
eminent statisticians that the market
value Of farm horses has actually de-
clined to such an extent that the aver
age is now about Sc a head less than
a year ago. The decline is most no
ticeable in the cotton states and in
those states which make a business of

TOR the first time in many years in
X formation collected by the United
\ States department of agriculture
shows that all classes Of livestock in
the United States are increasing in
numbers. Thus the real facts contra
dict, absolutely. sensational reports that
prices for meat and shoes would rise to
unprecedented figures in the immediate
future. It has even been said that a
government statistician predicted meat
at so cents a pound and shoes at $40 a
pair within the next two years. Such
a prediction, the real government stats
ticians say. is quite unwarranted.
On Jan. 1. for example. the number
Of bee1 cattle showed an increase Of
81 percent over the number a year ago,
and an actual increase Of j. 212, GOO head.
Hitherto the number Of beef cattle in
the United States has declined steadily
since 1910. There are also more mich
COWS in the country than last year. the
increase being 2.5 percent, or in num-
bers $4,000. Swine, however, showed
the greatest increase Of all classes-9.6
percent
On Jan. /, 1914, there were only S.
$4,000 swine in the country; on Jan. /,
1916, 64,61S,00O. This is accounted for

Douglas Ariz.. Feb. 27-Despite the
embargo on exports of cattle from So
nora, placed in effect by villa authori-
ties. cattle are being shipped across the
international line to dealers in the
United States. Apparently the embargo
is being maintained IN some cases and
disregarded in others.
The embargo was announced Tor tle

purchasers hurried out their stock so as
not to be held up by Villas ban After

Puts L. $. in Good shape.
L is believed. however. that the
United States is now in a better condi-
ton to face such situation than for
years past The tide, it seems, has
turned Instead of livestock steadily
decreasing year after year, this year,
for the first time, as has been, said, all
classes show an appreciable increase.
Including horses, mules. mich cows,
beef cattle. sheep and swine, there were
on Jan. 1. 1915 7,712,00O more farm an
imals in the United States than on Jan.
1, 1914 The Increase in the total value
was S7S,024. 900, or 1.3 percent. 1t is
quite true that this increase is not vet
proportional to the increase in popula
ton, which is approximately percent;
but the fact that there is an increase,
that the tide seems definitely TO have
turned, is regarded as a sufficient
answer to alarming eXaggerations and
misleading figures.
