ticularly in the nations involved. Ger
many early in the war slaughtered her
hogs by the thousands in order that
the country would not be compelled to
feed them the grain, so much needed
for her armies as well as her civil pop
ulation. The shortage of pork in Ger
many, as well as the other European
countries, was never so great and will
remain SO for several years to come.
The supply must come from America.
With his own market, as well as the
European market to supply with pork
in the next few years, it is plain to
be seen that the American hog and
corn grower is just about going to die
tate his own prices.

HOG GROWERS HAVE
CHANCE FOR Big MONEY
With End of the War Feed Will be

Will Advance -. %

It's an ill wind that blows nobody
good. The possible entrance OF the
United States into the European war
on the side of the Allies is believed
by students of American market con-
ditions to mean fortune to Ameri-
can hog growers. Hogs have already
passed the twelve and one-half cent
limit and are almost certain to go to
thirteen at an early date. Everywhere
it is admitted that with Uncle Sam
likely to take a hand in the war, it
will not last longer than next Sep
TENDER and many students believe that
it is sure to come to an end the COM
ing summer. This early conclusion OF
the war means very heavy drop in
wheat, for Russia is understood to
have four crops which will be releas-
ed to the world with the close of the
conflict. Hogs and corn, according to
government experts who have studied
the conditions from every viewpoint,
are sure to remain high for the next
three or four years. The farmer who
raises them is sure to make fortune.
With the end of war, pork is going to
be in great demand in Europe, and par
