greatest BATTLE
OF WORLD SOON
Mighty Preparations By Al.
lies and Central Powers
o. Western Front
n 49,

London, Jan. 19th.-Mighty pre-.
parations are being made on the
west front by the Entente Allies
and the Central Powers for what
will be the greatest battle in the his
tory of the world, it is believed
here. It is question of which side
will take theo ffensive first, that
question being left mainly to the
state of the weather, which at pres
ent is hampering operations.
France is looking for an attack
from Germany on the French lines
in Alsace, between Belfort and
Basel, through Switzerland. Great
masses of troops are being piled up
along the Swiss border, especially
across the frontier from Basel,
where the Germans are constructing
a strategic railroad.
Frsnce believes violent attack is
coming from this quarter despite
the expressed confidence of the
Swiss Federal Council that their
country would not be invaded.
Germany declares that the En-
tente Allies are massing mighty sup
plies Of war material and troops be-
hind their front.
With these activities going on,
the entire world is awaiting the
first blow.

equal. From the minute their eyes
meet on shipboard his sister at
tempts to keep them apart, but the
opposition simply serves to fan the
love the stronger and although he
loses her, but it would not do to

Oregon biggest business

done.
Very soon the story will be

HON. w. c. HAWLEY WRITES

fFON. w. ~. F1HVVlEI VNtl CS
House of Representatives, U. S.,
Washington, d. c., June 13, 1917
Hon c. B. Crosno,
Toledo, Oregon.
My dear Friend:
have just had a conference
with Col. H. G. Newcomer, a
member of the Board Of Engin-
eers for Rivers and Harbors, rel
ative to the improvement of the
Yaquina Bar and Harbor in ac-
cordance with the project favol-,
ably reported by the Army En-
gineers. | understand from Mr..
c. S. Davis, Of Siletz, that the
Port Commission desires the en-
gineers to prepare the plans for
improvement and to furnish en-
gineering supervision so that the
money raised by the port from
the sale of bonds can be effect
lively expended along the lines
the engineers may approve, and
in a manner that will give the
port credit for such expenditures
as its half Of the cost Of i'm
provement.
Colonel Newcomer suggests
that the new Port Commission
make formal application to the
Corps Of Engineers, U. S. Army,
for approved plans for the i'm
provement and for an engineer
who. will give engineering super
vision of construction. l think
this wise suggestion. It is es-
sential that the cost Of any work
done by the Port should be done
in such a manner that the engi.
neers will approve it and give
full credit upon the one-half OF
the cost the port is to provide.
The report of the engineers
favorable to the improvement,
has been sent to the public print
er, but was not available fol
Congress when the present river
and harbor bill was reported
and this item was therefore not
included in the pending bill. This
report is not yet available.
hope it will be before the bill Ii
passed by the House and if so,
will offer an amendment to pro.
vide for the Yaquina. l will
probably do so even If the report
does not come in, but Congress
has hitherto rejected amend.
ments offered before reports be.
come available.
With best wishes, / am,
Truly yours,
w. c. Hawley.

France. In 1000 we were each eating on
the average of lS1 pounds OF meat per year,
and although this has since somewhat de
creased on account OF the high prices, we
still consume more than one hundred and
seventy pounds of beef, pork and mutton for
every man, women and child in the coun

over fifteen billion pounds of meat and meat

methods of modern science and attention to
the most minute details, these enormous
wastes are conserved, and it is said that the
by-products really make possible the profits
OF these great meat-packing plants.
From the refuse meat come valuable fats,
which are manufactured into grease, tallow,
soap and various lubrcating products, and
also fertilizers with high percentages of nit
rogen and phosphoric acid The hides are
sold just now at great profit to the tanneries
and the bones and horns go to manufacture
ers OF buttons, combs and other ornaments.
The hair is used in the making of mattresses,
and the sinews and hide trimmings are trans
formed into the glue that is sold in our
stores.
The same methods obtain in the handling
OF sheep and Of hogs, and every department.

talked today with one Of the leading Of

failure of our meat supply, and OF the in

The profit on every steer we handle, by
products and all, is only per cent Where
our money is made is in the short time il
takes to handle the animals and the num-
Der we can turn over in wears time . The
only way to cut the price is, believe, for
people to eat less beef every day. | am not
in favor of the meatess day. 1t will not be
a success for the reason that the stream of
meat flowing out OF the packing centers
throughout the country is as regular as
river, and YOU cannot dam it by spasmodic
saving. The real trouble lies with tho
housewife and the demands of the present
We have more animals per capita than ever
before: The trouble is we have loosened our
belts and are taking more meat and better
cuts into Our stomachs. If the ordinary
housekeeper would pay one-tenth as much
attention to the saving OF the waste in her
kitchen as we do here in our handling the
meat the high cost of her living would be
materially reduced
But will we be able to supply our great
army in Europe?' | asked.
81 see no reason why not. was the reply
We have thesvast ranges on which to- raise
the cattle. and we have the corn to fatten
them. The price OF corn, however, is at
present almost prohibitve and some other
substitutes for fattening the cattle will have
to be found No one need fear that the
supply of American beef will give out but
there is good reason for him to expect that it
will become higher rather than lower in
price, The day OF cheap beef is over, and
the rise in price is due more to the demands
and profit Of the producer than to those of
the packer For years we have been re-
turning to the cattleman almost 90 per cent
OF what we get for the beef and the by
products, and the responsibility for the higl,
prices of today rests with him.
