It might be an aC7an-
tage if the prices Of meats
and live stock could be
stabilized. The packer
now has to cope with the
uncertainties of fluctu-
ating prices of both cattle
and dressed beef in order
to getan average netprof1t
of of a cent per pound.
But - elimination of
\ price fluctuations, now
regulated by supply and
demand, involves many
difficulties:
Fresh meat is perish
able and must be sold
within a few days for
what it will bring.
When meat accumu-
lates, competition forces
prices down so as to make
stocks move.
When the supply is
short, competition forces
prices up, resulting in
even distribution of avail
able stocks.
Demand for meat varies with
industrial conditions, with sup
ply of ships for export, with the
seasons and weather changes,
and with supply of other foods.
1t varies irregularly in different
parts of the country; it varies
with respect to the different
qualities of meat, and the var
ious cuts.
The demand for by-products
also fuctuates.
The supply Olive stock reach
ing the packing plants, as well
as it's weight and quality, fluc-
tuates from day to day, from
week to week, and from season
to season.
The price the packer pays
for live stock depends on all
these varying conditions.
Swift & Company will gladly
cooperate in the carrying out
of any national policy that will
tend to steady the prices of live
stock and meat.

FROM THE COUNTY
FOOD ADMINISTRATOR
To the People of Kandiyohi County:


You have again demonstrated your
willingness to aid the government in
its efforts by the manner in which you
have responded to the call for a re-
port of the amount of wheat -four on
hand. A few have not yet reported,
owing, no doubt, : their failure to
notice the call rather than to any
disposition to avoid making the re-
port
In order to fully inform you OF the
present regulations and in answer to
numerous questions that have been
put to me, beg to briefly state the
following:
REPORTS.
Every householder in the county
who has not already done so must
Immediately report name, address
number in family and quantity Of
wheat -four on hand. This applies to
all whether you have any flour or
none.
FLOUR.
No person shall buy more than thir-
ty days supply of wheat -four, at the
rate OF six pounds per person, with an
equal amount of substitutes. In this
connection it must be made clear
that substitutes are limited to what
can logically be used for bread: no
package breakfast foods can be sold
as substitutes.
Merchants are required to keep a re-
cord Of flour sales made from now on,
showing date, to whom and quantity
sold.
SURPLUS ON HAND.
II you have a surplus on hand and
you purchased it after January LIST,
1918, return it to the dealer, who must
take it back and pay you the same
price you paid. If, however, you have
only broken package, keep it and
use it according to the foregoing re.
gulations as to quantity and substi.
tutes.
If your flour was purchased before
January LIST, 1918, hold the same sub
ject to further order, unless your deal
er can conveniently handle same, in
which case he will pay you the pres.
ent wholesale market price, You
must use it according to regulations
both as to quantity per person and
as to substitutes.
WHEAT.
All spring wheat must now be
marketed. Seed for next year cannot
be retained. Winter wheat seed sufh
Gent for sowing usual acreage in fall
of 1918 may be held.
SUGAR.
For canning purposes My, consum
ers may purchase rs pounds of sugar
at one time, upon signing certificate
obtainable from the retail dealer
This is in addition to the regular
consumptive requirements based upo1
8 pounds per capita per month as now
authorized. Housewives should ac
at once. At this time stocks of sugar
make it possible for each family il
this district to secure rs pounds
Later, additional purchases may be
made for canning purposes upon sign
ing another certificate, providing
sugar is then available.
Dated May 18th, 1918.

County Food Administrator.

WAR STAMPS QUOTA
TO Be ALL PLEDGED
Drive Will Be Put on in June To
Pledge Purchase Of War
Stamp. For Year.

Every citizen of this county will
have a patriotic duty to perform dur
War Savings Pledge Week from June
9Th to 18th, by subscribing for as
many of these government securities
as he can stand, these to be purchas-
ed on a weekly or monthly basis dur
ing the balance Of this year. This is
the declaration made by S. B. Qvale,
Chairman of the Kandiyohi County
War Savings Stamp Committee today.
"This county must be among the
leaders in reaching it's quota of War
Savings Stamp Sales" he said. "Too
many persons have looked upon the
War Savings Campaign as mere child's
play when the reverse is only too
true 1t is an investment that belongs
to every man, woman and child in this
county and one that is backed by the
unlimited resources of the govern
ment.
It should be remembered that buy
ing War Savings Stamps is not a gift.
They represent demand security in
the United States that pays four per-
cent interest, compounded quarterly,
and which cannot sell fellow par.
Although such practice is discourage
ed, War Stamps can be redeemed at
local pcstofices on ten days notice,
plus the accrued interest. In other
words, they may be placed in almost
the same class as interest-paying cur
rency and are just as staple.
Minnesota's quota is SAT 1000, 900
about two-thirds the allotment of the
Third Liberty Loan, which, in itself,
shows the enormous task confronting
us in order to sell cut the quota the
Treasury has apportioned as our share
for aiding in financing the war. Every
person in this county, by saving from
non-essential expenditures, can buy
his quota of War Savings Stamps this
year without feeling any undue bur-
den by doing SO. He also will be buy
ing the finest possible security and
thereby be adding to his income"
The quota for War Savings and
Thrift Stamps for the County is $751;
100000 The big "Drive" to sell our
full quota will start June 9Th and will
last one week.
The allotment for each township
and village in the county lis as fol-
lows.

For you to give S. when you can give SIS
