Higher Prices Is Caused By
Non Proportion of The Meat

WASHINGTON, D. c., July THAT
meat production has not kept pace
with the increase in population and
that its failure to do so, combined
with increased cost of production and
diminished purchasing power of the
money unit, has contributed to higher
prices not only in the United States
but all over the world is stated in
Part l of the exhaustive report on
the meat situation in the preparation
of which specialists of the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture have been
engaged for some time. This country
it is said is participating in a world
wide movement and it is not expected
that the situation will undergo any
radical change in the Immediate flu
luIC, Ou the QUIET MANU-, II is DSll6N- :
ed that there will be a gradual growth
and expansion lin the worlds produc-
tion of beef, mutton, and pork which
may or may not equal the rate of in
-creases of the meat-eating population.
In America this gradual expansion
appears to have begun already. Be-
tween 1907 and 1913 there was
marked decline in the number of cat
tie in the country but in the last two
years this has not only stopped but
has given way to a perceptible in
crease. The estimated number on
farms and ranges on January 1, 1919,
81 AL 900, is, however, still much be-
low the corresponding figure for 1907.

MORTON COUNTY
DIVISION MAIN
ISSUE THIS FALL

Leith, N. d., June S.--One of the
main issues at the coming fall cleo
ton will be that OF county division
Two years ago the county came near
er being divided than at any other
previous attempt and it is certain
ty that it will be accomplished this
time as harmony prevails in every
section of the proposed territory to
be set aside from old Morton.
On Friday evening of last week a
meeting was held at Elgin at which
time practically every town in propos-
ed Grant and Beaver counties was
represented. The object of the meet
ing was to draw lines that would be
satisfactory to the majority, and this
was accomplished as the lines drawn
were accepted by unanimous vote of
the assemblage. AS soon as cuts can
be made they will be printed, show
ing the lines accepted by the delega-
ton last Friday night. 1t makes three
good sized counties and surely there
should be no kick by anybody. All
the towns, in the north county are
working together on the present lines
and the same is true of the south
county. Care was taken to give old
Morton their just share. They re-
ceived it and should register no COM
plant, but of course that's out of the
question with them. AS long as the
north and south proposed counties
stick the way they have started out
and everybody does their share, coun.
ty division will carry with a whoop
Another meeting was held Wednes-
day evening at Leith, when the dele
gates from all sections of proposed
Grant county met to perfect an or
ganzation to go ahead with the work
An executive committee consisting of
three from each town and postoffice
was elected. This committee met af-
ter the general meeting and organic
ed by electing A. w. Patterson of

MORE "DOMINANT AMERICANIsM." :"

than it was when Mark Hanna describ- ed the exploitation of the American people by Privilege and Plutocracy as saving the national honor."
 MT. Hughes and his supporters have l great deal to say about "the weak ness and timidity," as they term it, of President Wilson. When MT. Hughes makes his sI eecF of acceptance, an ex traordinary opportunity for the man. Hesitation of personal courage will pre- sent itself to him. Will he be brave enough and daring enough to tell the country why Wall Street is for him, why the tariff eXtortioniStS are for him, why the trusts are for him, why the standpatters and reactionaries are for him, why the jingoes are for him, why the militarists and advocates of con- scription are for him, why the German American Alliance is for him and why he is now the hope of the professional hyphenated vote? Is it because of their exalted patriotism and of his dominant Americanism compared with President Wilson's dominan Atmeri- canism? MT. Hughes my think so, but if he does, somebody is being fooled, and the reactionary elements that are supporting MT. Hughes in or der to defeat MT. Wilson are not in the habit of being deceived.
 MT. Hughes cannot smother the is- sues of the campaign by spread-eagle eIoquence about dominant American |ism.-New York World.

Early Advertisements

The first advertisement of an un- dertaker appeared in London jour- nal on this date in 1879, when a cof- fin-haker at ''the sign of the Gold en Pall and Coffin" announced for sale ''very fashionable laced and plain dressings for the dead of all sizes, with very fashionable collins" It was at about this period, during the reign of Charles IT., that the pub lie journals of England first came in- to use as advertising mediums. As most of the early commercial "ads' were inserted by quack doctors and vendors of wonderful specifics and "cure-alls,'' 1t is likely that the cof- fin maker wisely considered that his services would be in demand. One of the favorite tipples of that day. it would seem from the advertisements, was "Dr. Buffers Ale," which was said to be ian excellent stomach drink" which "helps digestion and dissolves congealed phlegm upon the lungs. and is therefore good against colds, coughs, ptisical and consump- tive distempers; and being drunk in the evening, it moderately fortifies na- ture, causeth good rest. and hugely corroborates the brain and memory"
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1916-07-20

Enthusiasm for MT. Hughes dom inant Americanism," is by no means confined to the Standardization AL liance, or to the pro-ally sympathizers who cannot forgive the President for refusing to rush the country into war with Germany.
 All the reactionary interests and ele- ments in the United States are support ing MT. Hughes and dominant Ameri- canism.
 Wall Street is for dominant Ameri- canism and the restoration of private control of the United States Treasury.
 The monopoly-tariff hogs are for dominant Americanism and the priv ilege of robbing the consumer to in crease the crop of millionaires.
 The Morgans, the Armours, the Garys and all the other trust captains are for dominant Americanism and the re-establishment of a private wire into the White House.
 The bankers whose power of life or death over business has been curbed by the Federal Reserve Law are for dominant Americanism and 51 per cent. of the common stock.
 The intuition crowd is for dominant Americanism and a pipeline into the Treasury.
 The Mexican concessionaires are for dominant Americanism and a war to fatten their pocketbooks.
 Dominant Americanism is noble issue, and it is no less noble to-day

RECIPROCITY

T& M. HILL November approaches, worries and
 about taxes, not the taxes in Bridgeport which have at phenomenal rate but about Federal taxation
 which recently has been appooned in degree that the poorer classes of the people do not bear it all.
 Perhaps Mir Hill is getting ready for reciprocity In hs aat campaign Hill appointed A. O. Wheeler as his po This Wheeler became treasurer of political committee which collected about $1OOO from manufacturing interests mainly from which appropriated for the purchase of Hill circulars print Hill pamphlets to put up Hill posters and to get out Hill appeals for cash
 Among the interests that responded bera the Straw Braid Association group that especially interested in tariff leaion This association made contribution Mir Hs peleal committee, of which MT Hills political agent Wheeler was treasurer.
 Wheeler wrote the following letter. addressed Koch n officer of the Associations .N T in receipt of your telegram today and have
 forwarded MT. Hill copy of the same. 4 M He wishes me to thank you and through you the
 Straw Braid Association for their assistance and to

 This is reciprocity You tickle Hill and Hill will tickle you
 In the November campaign there will be large body to col 1ect from
 Those who pay the surtax incomes likely for the inheritance tax form the Taxpayers Dodg ing Association and send Mr. Hill gift proporonate to their desire to escape taxation.

LORD BATHURST

Among the many journalists of the British Empire who have laid down the pen to take up the sword are not few proprietors of great newspa- pers. One of the first of these to offer his services was the Earl of Bathurst, whose connection with the Fourth Estate was due to his marri- age to the Hon. Lilias Margaret Frances Borthwick, /the daughter of the first and last Baron Glenesk, the owner and editor of the London Morn ing Post. Lord Glenesk had but one son, the Hon. Oliver Borthwick, who died of cancer just as he was complet- ing his training to assume the man. agement of the Post, and when Lord Glenesk died in 1908 the barony which had been conferred upon him became extinct, and the London Morning Post and his other property passed to his daughter. the Countess of Bathurst, who had become the bride of the Earl in 1893. Earl Bathurst and his son, Lord Apsley, then undertook to assist Lady Bath urst in the management of the great newspaper, and both developed into competent members of the Fourth Estate. The Earl and his son both received commissions in Gloucester shire regiments. The Earl, seventh of his line. was born fifty-two years ago, come tomorrow, July 21. 1864- and succeeded his father in 1892, shortly before marrying the daughter of the proprietor of the Morning Post. For many years he was colonel of a Worcestershire militia regiment. from 1712, and that of Earl Bathurst from 1772. The family seat is Ciren- cester House, and the estate includes about ,12,000 acres in Cirencester and DerbvShire
