URGES COORDINATION
FOR MEAT INDUSTRY

Cheyenne. Wyo.. Jan. 1s.-Co- ordina :
ton of all branches OF the meat indus
try and advocacy Of classification of
the stock yards as public utilities were
features of the address Of Dwight b.
Heard of Phoenix. president. to the an
nual meeting of the American National
Livestock association here today.
President Heard said drought had
figured in the cattle industry to such
an extent that prices paid for cattle
last year had varied from $3.50 to $l3
a hundred-weight. Receipts at ii
principal points, he said, showed an
increase in hogs sent to market of
10000 head. The 1916 lamb crop
was reported to have been the largest
ever recorded, he said.
Mr.. Heard said the vital questions
before the convention are:
How we can devise more efficient
and economical means for the produc-
ton OF livestock; how we can maintain
and develop the means for transport
ing this livestock at reasonable rates:
how we can eliminate speculation in
feeding: how we can improve condi-
tions Mt stock yards.

PUBLIC OWNERSHIP

Washington. Jan. 1S.-The difficulty
of fighting timber diseases in privately
owned forests was urged us n reason
for public ownership of timber lands
by speakers today before the Ameri-

combating the white Pine blister
scourge.
"Private ownership OF timber lands
has been for the most part speculative
and temporary in character" said
Henry s. Graves, chief of the federal
forestry service. "Where public in
terests are involved. the public must
protect itself by direct ownership. CO.

PROTEST MOvE|
Criticism Follows Britain's
Decision to Impress
Agriculturists.

London. Jan. 1S.--The governments
decision to call half of the skilled ag-
ricultural workers to the army and re-
place them by men who are assigned
1or sedentary work, or women. has
evoked flood of angry protest from
the farmers.
There also is a deal of sharp press
criticism on the unwisdom of such a
course at a moment when the national
interests imperatively demand that the
utmost possible amount of foodstuffs
should be home produced and when
the public is being exhorted to devote
it's whole energies in this direction.
These critics argue that there has
been another contest between the
board of agriculture and the war Of
flee. in which the war office won. The
governments decision is regarded as
an outcome of the recent conference in
London between the war office and
General Nivelle. the French command
erin chief, and Field Marshal Sir
Douglas Haig.
1t is announced that the government
accepted the plan to enlist women for
farm work on n military basis, the
women being paid. billeted and clothed
by the war office. Incidentally the de-
cision seems likely to revive the acri-
monious discussion of Irelands con-
tri5ution to the army. 1t has already
been suggested that laborers should
be brought from Ireland to replace
farm hands taken for the army, and
it also has been argued that If Ireland
gave her full quota of men to the army
it would be needless to denudc the
country of skilled agriculturists.

RELIEF FROM DRUG
SCARCITY PROMISED

New York. Jan. 1S.--Relief from the
shortage and high price of foreign
drugs and chemicals was promised in
a cablegram from Foreign Secretary
Ralfour of Great britain to Charles II.
Goddard. president Of the American
Druggists syndicate, made public here
tonight. The cablegram was in reply
to an inquiry from Mr. Goddard. Mr..
Balfour's message said in part:
You will easily understand that the
resources of this country are severely
strained by the necessities of the war,
but as a matter OF fact. exports Of
drugs from this country to the United
States have, think, decreased little, if
at all. The value Of these exports in
1915 was IS per cent greater than in
1913, and few applications for licenses
to export from the United Kingdom
have been refused in the past year ex-
cept when shortage Of supplies rem
dered 1t absolutely necessary.
Il am glad to assure you that every
effort will be made to issue licenses
in the coming year to meet the needs
of the United States and thus to main
tain a trade connection to which Brit
tain attaches no less importance than
America"

In Spite Of Uncertainty in
Mexico, Expedition Will
Be Returned.

Washington, Jan. lS.--Although VIII
las operations have injected confusing
factors into the situation in Northern
Mexico and along the border, there IL
every indication that the administrn-
ton is going forward with its plans
for early withdrawal Of Psrshing's ex-
petition and demobili8ation Of the ma
tional guard.
Officials here have insisted that it
was impossible to set definite date
TOR the troop movements because of
the uncertainty OF transportation ia
cilities and because the situation at
the border and beyond constantly is
changing. 1t has been Indicated clear
~. however, that unless there was
some unexpected development. PERISH
ing's withdrawal and the return of the
guardsmen would be ordered within a
few days, possibly by the end of this

military position if withdrawn and re-
grouped. but they are anxious to To-
cate the Villa forces more definitely

ment.

wage-earner in every productive oc-

whom he must depend, in the final
analysis for his food and clothing.
There Is a prepared program that
assures the discussion of questions OF
vital and Immediate interest. The dis
cusston is, however, open to every one
present. No credentials are required.
The last annual session was held in
March OF last year under the auspices
CT the Equity and among other things
then taken up were the obstacles that
had Ceen thrown in the way of the
operation of the farm loan law. This
brought the attorney general and other

Of interest in their departments.
Another very important feature will
be the selecting and appointment of a

most Importance because OF measures
already introduced in the legislature
current providing for a convention to
entirely revise the state constitution
and others to create a tax commission.
Either or both may affect our system
of taxation. Special interests will be
fully organized and take care of them
selves. The committee selected by
this congress will be the only body,
