SCARCITY OF LIVE STOCK

For some time now it has been apparent to those who have given the matter thought, that the country is threatened with an alarming shortage of live stock-especially meat producing animals, though horses and mules are also showing a shortage.
 When the war in Europe first began it was suggested that our farmers and stock raisers devote greater attention to increasing the number of meat animals. It was pointed out that the large foreign de- mand would make great in- roads on our supply. This was the result, but not all the re- suit. The stimulated demand caused prices to soar to ab- normal figure. These prices in turn caused all who had stock to push them on to the market at the earliest moment, with the result that thousands of head of sock went to the butchers when it should have been kept on the farms.
 Stock buyers inform us that for the past years the average weight of hogs has steadily de- clined, due to the fact that the heavy feeders have been prac- tically exhausted and the light CT animals are being pushed onto the market.
 At a meeting of food admin istrators of a number of states recently, it was the unanimous decision, after surveying the situation carefully, that con- certed effort must be made to increase the breeding of hogs and cattle and each state rep resented in the conference was given it's per cent of increase to be attained.
 But it is right at this point the difficulty is encountered. The high prices have not only caused the immature animals to be sacrificed, but thousands of valuable females have also been slaughtered which should have been kept on the farm. There is not particle of doubt that the country is al- alarmingly short of breeders.
 There is but one remedy. No owner of hogs or cattle should sell or kill females capable of reproducing heir kind. This should be made an iron-clad rule on the farms of this coun- try. Certain it is that if the past, or even the present rate of consumption of females is continued for another twelve months, the country will face something little short of meat famine.
 And, as prices now range, this will be no sacrifice to the farmers, but rather a source of greater revenue as all will see, if they look at the matter in

Only two weeks from tomorrow and Alabama's big fair will be on.
 Secretary Dent announces that when the gates of the Alabama State Fair are thrown open Monday, october T, that everything will be in readiness
 "There is one thing certain" declares MT. Dent, "and that is that everything will be in place and the fair will be going full tilt the very first day of the big exposition. No one need fear that they will miss anything by attending the first day-they will see as much as anyone attending any day"
 The coming Alabama State Fair will eclipse all other Alabama expositions and the show will represent the efforts of fair experts who have been diligently preparing for the past year the Dig Alabama show.
 The Alabama Fair will have all those things that have made other 1918 fairs a big success, and will also have added attractions. 1t is not going too far to say that the coming fair will be the most costly, as we'll as the most elab- crate, ever presented in this section of the country The officials of the Ala bama Fair have adopted a policy to get the pest dtlrdCIlOnS OpldiIdulc gardless of the cost. Following this policy one of the grandest arrays of en- tertainment attractions will be present. ed fair patrons this year.
 These many attractions will be pre- scented free;
 Thaviu's Grand Opera pageant is one of the greatest organizations of the kind now in existence. It combines a band, international ballet and grand opera-three big features in one. This attraction will entertain daily in the grandstand. Other big fair features in- |clude:
 The auto polo games--polo in auto mobiles, the greatest present-day thriller.
 More than a dozen big hippodrome attractions, presenting some of the worlds best outdoor performers.

Destruction of German
 Military Power Begun.
 Says Congressman Collier

Washington, September 21.-The de- feat of the Germans at the Marne Is the beginning of the destruction of Germany as military power, Repre- sentative Collier said today, speaking in the House. What Waterlo was to Napoleon, so the fighting at the Marne eventually will be to the Ger man Emperor, the Mississippi repre- sentative said. adding that military autocracy was too firmly established in Germany to be uprooted without Q long struggle. For Germany to win, MT Collier said, would be to destroy twentieth century civilization, and a victory for the enemy would mean a complete reversal of history.
