Federal. Statisticians Tear
Apart Prophecy Of $40
Shoes and 5O.Cent Meat.

Prophecies Of SO shoes and 50-cent
meat for the United States in the near
future, are "a Joke" according to an
official statement from the Department
Of Agriculture today.
For the first time in many years, 1t is
stated, all classes Of livestock in the
United States are increasing in number.
Attention IL called to the fact that
there are 1.212.000 more beef cattle In
the country now than there were year
ago, and that there are nearly 6,000. 200
moro swine. ...
Europe Is not making the heavy pur-
chases claimed, the statement says. The
story that France has bought 10000
horses for war purposes IL denied. The
department figures show that less than
1oo. 900 have been shipped. z.
states, contradict absolutely sensational
reports that prices for meat and shoes
would rise to unprecedented figures.
1T has even been said that q Govern.
ment statistician predicted meat at 80
within the next two years. Such a pre-
diction Is quite unwarranted.
Over 1,212,0O0 Increase.
''On Jaunary the number of beef
cattle showed an increase Of 3.4 per
cent over the number a year ago. and
an actual increase of 1.A2,o0O head.
Hitherto the number of beef cattle In
the United states has declined steadily
since 1910. There are also more milch
cows in the country than last year, the
increase being 20 per cent, or IN mum,
bers. $3.50: Swine. hoWever' o,aSsss@ sno%eo
e.6 per cent. On January 1. 1914. there
were only s., ,s33, 900 swine in the country.
on January /, 1915, 64,6lS. 1000. This Is
accounted for by the fact that the e
production, of swine can be increased a,sasea
of live stock, and, consequently. an
enlarged demand can be met more read
"There were more horses on Ameri-
can farms on January l, l9lo than tnere

are approximately 25.000,0O0 horses al
together in the United states. the drain
Of 1000 or 100000 horses on account OF
the war is scarcely alarming
Decline In Cotton States.
Government statistcians point out
that the market value of farm horses
has actually declined to about s. a
head less than a year ago. This de-
cline is most noticeable in the cotton
States. Mules have declined even
more than horses, their value being
now $1l.5O per head less than year
ago. The explanation Is to be found
in the depression on account Of the
cotton situation in the South, which Is
the great market for mules.
From two-fifths to less than one-half
of the leather used in this country Is
imported, only S1s per cent coming
from European Russia, and IN per
cent from France. Since the great
bulk Of the imported hides come from
countries that are not at war, shipments
are not interfered With IN any way. way
sidered Is the possibility of an increased
demand by the warning countries.
Actually there has been an increase
in the value Of farm animals of $7s.-
ON, 900, or 1.3 per cent. The increase
in population is approximately per
cent.
