EN- BARGO ON BUTTER is
ANNOUNCED BYU.S.

An embargo has been placed on
the expectation of butter, except to
nations associated with the United
States in war. The food administra-
ton requests buttermakers and
dealers, therefore, to abandon GER
tain types of packages used in ship
ping butter to the orient, the trop-
les, and other sections outside the
selected list of countries. They
should use only packages, like tubs
and boxes, that are known to the
American trade and will find ready
sale in the United States. Owing
to stave shortage and transporter
ton difficulties boxes are suggested
in place of tubs.
Preservatives, flavoring. matters
and other materials frequently add
ed to butter for certain export trade
should not be used now, since these
are not allowable in home trade nor
acceptable to our associates.

ENORMOUS WASTE OF MILK IN

"
Three and one-half billion
pounds of milk are practically vast
ed in the dairy states every winter.
This makes 21,OOOCO0 pounds every
day. The foregoing is startling
statement but RIM. Washburn of
the division of dairy husbandry,
Minnesota College of Agriculture,
says it is true. The farmer feeds
most of HE skimmilk to hogs. This
milk, fed to hogs, produce only 20
per cent of it's energy value in edible
pork. Eight per cent of it's energy
value is lost. Mr. Washburn says
though, that some milk is necessary
to start pigs off strongly.
Much more of the energy value
of the skimn,ilk will be saved
if it is made into cottage cheese.
Every 100 pounds of ekimmi]k,
says Mr.. Washburn isequivalent
to 20 pounds of ordinar y meat, and
will make Is pounds of cottage
cheese. The cheese contains about
one third more portein and one
third less energy than meat and is
therefore essentially equivalent to
| meat.

GOVERNMENT URGES

KAlSlNG OF HO1o
Joseph P. Cotton, chief of the
United States food administration
meat division, has forwarded to A
D. Wilson, federal food administra-
tor for Minnesota, the following
statement relative to the price of
hogs:
"The main purposes of the food
administration as to hogs are four:
To see that the producer at times
can count on a fair price for his
hogs as source of profit; to see
that the farmer increases the num-
Der of hogs bred; to limit the profit
of the packer and the middleman
and to eliminate speculation.
"These things are necessary in
order that the ultimate consumer
may get an adequate supply of hogs
at the lowest feasible price.
"The prices to the farmer so far as
we can affect them, will not go below
a minimum of about $3.50 per hun.
dred weight for the average of the
packers droves on the Chicago
market until further notice."

EMBARGO SLOWS INDUSTRY
RESTRICTION ON ALL GOODS BUT

McAdoo Authorizes Step East Of
Mississippi for Relief Of Rail-
way Congestion.

Washington, Jan. 24.-An unofficial
embargo on all freight except food,
fuel and munitions practically is on
north of the Ohio and Potomac riv-
ers, as result of Director General
McAdoo's authorized embargo on
three Eastern trunk lines.
Although the restriction was ap-
piled formally only to the Pennsyl-
vania and Baltimore & Ohio east of
Pittsburgh and the Philadelphia e
Reading, other railroads accepted lit
tie freight, particularly if it was des-
tined for eastward movement.

This situation probably will continue
for several days until milder weather
permits railroads to begin to move
the great quantity of freight accumu-
lated during past weeks of winter
storms.
Factors contributing to the embargo
were the priority movement for coal
and foCGstuffs and the continued pref
erence in coal deliveries given to do
nestle consumers, ships and certain
war industries which were exempted
