MEAT AND rtT FAMINE A
POSSIBILITY!

The meat situation threatens to be-
come serious. according to the Colo
RADIO Food Administration.
Outside of the military zone in
France there is practically no meat
in that country; what there is, Is out
OF the reach OF the poor people in
rTice.
In England. the British food con
troller has found II necessary to re
duce the meat ration from one pound
to three-quarters of a pound per capita
weekly There has also been a gen
eral rise in price to the consumer OF
cents a pound in all meats
In America Herbert Hoover has
promised that out of the none too
plentiful meat supply of this country
&c o.00O tons of meat and fats will be
shipped to Europe during this current
year to relieve the situation over
there.
The Food Administration therefore
urges the most intense and concen-
trated saving of meat and Of fats.
Coming high prices on these com
modities will enforce some saving In
them. but for the most part the
patriotism Of the American people will
again be depended upon to fill this
1900 ,O00-ton meat and fat order.

Mining Activities OF
Upper Clear Creek

Doyle and company report their
lease on the Ruler, through the
Capital tunnel, as improving with
each round of holes. These lucky
leasers are sanguine of big re-
turns. Here's hoping they will
not be disappointed.
All reports from the Colorado
Central mine are of a most en-
couraging nature. Tho installing
of the heating plant and steam
shovel, however. was bigger job
than was at first calculated. When
these are completed satisfactory
results are expected.
In quiet systematic way de-
velopment is progressing in the
Hall tunnel. Only a small force
is employed at the present time,
the principal effort being to push
the tunnel to reach the goal, which
is about 1900 feet ahead. At the
present rate of progress, about 300
feet per month. the objective
should be reached in about six
months, after which renewed effort
will be put forth for large and
continued production.

Credit for COP. Victory
Given TO Newspapers
Dear Mr.. Stafford:

Dear Mr. Stafford:
The recent campaign served to
demonstrate once again the value
Of printers ink.
The Flu" ban made it neces-
sary to rely solely on type" and
personal work." and the result
proves that both were efficacious.
We must consider, however, that
the latter was due primarily to the
former; in other words, that the
Republican papers of the state
are entitled to very large share
of credit for the result.
l consider that l would be re
miss in my duty aa state chair
man, should l fail to acknowledge
the party's Indebtedness to the
Republican editors of the state,
and to thank them for their splen-
did and loyal support.
The free and liberal use in the
columns of your paper of publicity
matter sent out from headquar-
tiers, was highly appreciated, and
on behalf of the State Central
Committee l desire to thank you.
With a united party, good candi-
dates and loyal Republican press,
Colorado can be kept in the column
where it belongs, and where it's
highest interests will be best con-
served.
Having an abiding confidence
that the incoming administration
will merit your support, 1 most re-
spectfully and urgently request
that you remain steadfast in your
loyalty to the party, and to its
conduct of state affairs. Perplex-
ing problems will be presented
that cannot be solved wisely and
for the general good, except all
join in an earnest effort to that
end. No agency in this state is
quite so potent as the press. Now
that you have SO splendidly done
your part in the campaign, let me
appeal to you also to do your part
to make the incoming admins
tration an unqualified success.
By 80 doing you will not only
serve the party, but will assist in
upbuilding the state and what is
of still greater Importance: you
will be lending your influence
toward working out wisely, conser-
vatively and effectively the great
national problems which newt
ably will follow in the wake of the
worlds war.
Most cordially yours,
RUSH L. HOLLAND,
Chairman.

MEAT INCREASE
AT TIME NEEDED
Producers Responded Nobly
When Demand Was Shown
to Them.
CATTLE AND HOG FIGURES.
Government Justified In Pork Policy
Which Nov Provides Chief SIP
ply to Meet Three Billion
Pound Fat Shortage.

In line with the general plan Of con-
servation formulated by the U. s. Food
Administration Immediately following
the entrance of the United States into
the war the contribution made by the
meat producers Of this country to the
war program is of particular signifi-
cance, as 1t demonstrates the hearty
cooperation accorded the Food Ad-
ministration by the m eat producers Of
the country.
According to reports OF the o. 8.
Department Of Agriculture, there was
an increase in cattle OF 10,23S,OO head
and 12,441 900 hogs, these figures COM
piled to January l last. In the same
period there was q decrease Of $4,000
head Of sheep, but indications are this
decrease will show an increase follow
ing the latest reports.
Since January ! unofficial informa-
ton indicates an increase In hogs OF
not less than eight per cent. and not
more than fifteen per cent. compared
with one year ago. with an increase in
average weight
Following the request Of the Food
Administration for increase In hog
production for the fall Of 1918 and the
spring of 1919 the increase may yield
not less than 1,6OO,O00,OOO pounds
more of pork products than were
available last year. Without this in
crease the shipping program arranged
by Mr.. Hoover regarding animal food
products would have been impossible.
The dressed hog products during the
three months ending September 80.
1917, amounted to 800, ,172, 600 pounds,
while for the same months of 1918 the
production was 1.277 $4,000 pounds.
an increase Of over S74. 100000 pounds
for the quarter.
During the same period in 1917 in.
spected slaughter records OF dressed
beef showed 1,263, 100000 pounds as
against 1,454, 100000 pounds for the
three month period ending September
I. this year.
We must increase our meat ship
ments, especially our pork products.
to meet the added demands of the mil
lions liberated from German Oppres-
sion. And at the same time we must
look forward to the rehabilitation of
the European meat herds. The policy
which guided our meat program In the
past year has been fully justified. for
only the heavy pork production which
1t has brought about will enable us
even partly to satisfy the increased
demands on US for the coming year.
There will be a world shortage In fats.
and it is to the United States that Eu-
rope must look to supply its defcien-
cy. At the same time there will con-
tinue to be heavy demands for beef.
Owing to the limited refrigerator ship
ping capacity European imports Of
beef for some time will be limited.
The United States, Australia and
Argentine will be able to maintain
supply that will keep all available
freezer vessels operating at capacity.

William Criley, one of our old
