from this place, Mrs. Bette Bullock

this time, could only sit up for a LITTLE
while, and could not walk anywhere al

The doctor was called in, and his treat

that, nothing seemed to do me any good.

OUR FUTURE DEPENDS
ON LIVE STOCK

Chicago, Dec. 13.-That the nations
future absolutely depends on live
stock production being made profitable
to the farmer" and that on the aver
age for twenty years, it has not been
profitable, were statements made to-
day by Edward c. Lasater, owner of a
large cattle ranch at Falfurrias, Tex,
in addressing the national conference
of marketing and farm credits here.
His subject was The Marketing of
Live Stock"
THE question of privately owned
and packer-dominated stock yards is
of more vital importance TO the ma
tion," said Mr.. Lasater, than whether
a navy shall be built and equipped
at government owned or privately
controlled shipyards and munition
factories. One has to do with the
defense of our national honor and
rights, the other with whether there
is to be anything worth defending.
The Romans occupied the world
for generations as rulers; from a ma
tion of farmers they became great in
war, wealthy, and seemingly wise as
law givers. Their wheat fields yield
ed more than thirty bushels an acre,
and, well nurtured, the people be-
came masters of the world. When
the scepter of power passed TO other
peoples the Roman fields yielded only
three bushels to the acre of shrivelled,
chaffy grain. AS their wealth had
increased the people had become mon
ey and power mad, and the dominating
element Of their population congre-
gated in the cities, leaving the farms
to be titled by hired or slave labor
and instead OF farming they mined
their soil"
Mr.. Lasater pointed out that this
country could see a parallel in Rome's
story, and closed with a plea that this
generation restore the soil by careful
husDandry, saying:
''As a nation we cannot tolerate an
agency operating between producer
and consumer, with power to take
from both that to which the agency
deems itself entitled We, the com
mon people whom. according to Abra-
ham Lincoln, the Lord loves because
he made so many of them acting
through a government agency, must
have a thorough investigation of all
problems entering the production and
marketing of live stock and the pro-
ducts therefrom. Thus live stock pro
duction, so essential to the feeding
of our people and to the restoration
of soil fertility, may be saved to our
nation"
