MEAT PRODUCERS
DID FULL DUTY
Increase in American Hogs Will
Help to Meet World Fat
Shortage.
FARMERS SAVE SITUATION.
Government Justified In Stimulation
of Pork Production-Sevenfo
Increase Over Pre-
War Exports.
FAR MERS SAVE SITUATION.

Through increased production and
conservation we will be able this year
to export seven times our pre-war
average exports of pork products
With the heavy demands added in car
ing for the millions who have been
freed from German oppression, the
Department of Agriculture and the
Food Administration are justified to-
day In our every action of stimulation
of hog production. In the coming year
the greatest world shortage will be in
fats, and pork will help to save this
situation. The efficacy Of the policy
Of stimulated production has built up
in this country supplies which will en-
able us to supply very large part OF
the fat deficiency of the world. In
beef there must be shortage in Eu-
rope, due largely to limited refrigera-
tor ship capacity. All freezer ships
available, however, will be filed by
America. Argentine and Australia.
The contribution made by the pro-
ducers of this country to the war pro-
gram as applying particularly to ami
NAL food products is illustrated by the
following:
Reports compiled by the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture indicate an
increase in cattle of 10,239,000 head
and 12.441 900 hogs. These figures
were compiled to January last.
In this period there was decrease
in sheep of $4,000 head. The indica-
tons are that this decrease will show
an increase, according to recent re-
ports.
Since January | unofficial informa-
ton indicates an increase in hogs Of
not less than s per cent. and not
more than Is per cent as compared
with one year ago, with an increase i'll
the average weight.
Following the request of the o. S.
Food Administration for an Increase
in hog production for marketing in the
fall of 1918 and the spring of 1919 the
increase may yield not less than 1,6OO,-
000,000 pounds more of pork products
than were available last year. With
out this increase the shipping program
arranged by Mr. Hoover regarding an
imal food products would have been
impossible.
The dressed hog products during the
three months ending September 30,
1917, amounted to 903, 172,0 900 pounds,
while for the corresponding months of
1918 the dressed hog products tOtaled
1.277, $50. 900. an increase of over 374.-
100000 pounds for the quarter.
During the same period for 1917 the
records Of inspected slaughter of
dressed beef showed 1858, 100000
pounds as against 1.454. 100000 pounds
for the three month period ending
September L, this year.

WHAT BOYS SAY
j ABOUT RED CROSS

Since the soldiers overseas have
been informed by their officers that
the American Red Cross will play San
TIA Claus this Christmas for all the
boys in khaki who have no relatives
in the United States, Red Cross Head
quarters at Washington has been re-
ceiving hundreds of appeals. Incl
dentally the men at the front have
taken this time to express their ap-
probation for the work done by the
Red Cross "Over There"
Following are few excerpts taken
at random from letters inclosing
Christmas Package Coupons:
Dear Mr., Miss or Mrs. Red Cross-I
would appreciate 1t tremendously II you
would send me Xmas package. / have
no relatives, and a little something from
the good old U. S. A would be appreci-
ated beyond words. The Red Cross has
done so much for us over here, and you
don't know just how we appreciate it
beyond everything else"
An Italian thus addresses his Christ
mas appeal:
ITO Whom 1t May Concern-I am in
Service in France and, having no people
In the United States, would like to re-
,ceive little package from the Red Cross

Ipon. / have received so much tobacco

ICross furnishes us with daily papers,

'reation."

you would inclose a bill for same, for I

pose on you. The Red Cross is the best
friend we have"
One Red Cross nurse writes:

be sure all the boys at the front get
their packages first then If one is left

Others will have something from home

Washington, D. C.-(Special.) -Ac-
States Public Health Service, the cpl
demic of influenza in Spain has al
ready caused an increase in the preva-
lence and deaths from pulmonary tu-
berculOsis. A similar association be-
tween influenza and tuberculosis was
recently made by Sir Arthur News
holme, the chief medical officer of the
English public health service, in his
analysis of the tuberculosis death rate
In England.
In order that the people of the Unit
ed States may profit by the experience
of other countries Surgeon General
Rupert Blue of the United States Pub
lie Health Service has just issued
warning emphasizing the need of spe-
cial precautions at the present time.
"Experience seems to Indicate" says
the Surgeon General, that persons
whose resistance has been weakened
by an attack of influenza are peculiar
ly susceptible to tuberculosis. With
millions of it's people recently affected
with influenza this country now Of
fers conditions fayoring the spread of
tuberculosis"
One Million Consumptives In the
United States.
"Then you consider this serious
menace?" was asked. SIN any opinion
II is, though hasten to add 1t is dis
tinctly one against which the people
can guard. So far as one can estimate
there are at present about one million
cases of tuberculosis in the United
States. There is unfortunately no
complete census available to show ex-
actly the number of tuberculosis per.
sons In each state despite the fact that
most of the states have made the dis
ease reportable. In New York city,
where reporting has been in force for
many years, over $4,000 cases of tu-
berculosis are registered with the De-
partment of Health. Those familiar
with the situation believe that the adj
dition of unrecogniZed and unreported
cases would make the number nearer
$4,000. The very careful health sur
vey conducted during the past two
years in birmingham, Mass, revealed
200 cases of tuberculosis in a popula-
ton of approximately $4,000. If these
proportions hold true for the United
States as whole they would indicate
that about one in every hundred per-
sons is tuberculous. Each of these
constitutes a source OF danger to be
guarded against"
What to Do.
In his statement to the public Sur.
geon General Blue points out how
those who have had influenza should
protect themselves against tuberculo-
sis. "All who have recovered from in
fiuenza" says the Surgeon General,
"should have their lungs carefully ex,
amined by competent physician. In
fact, it is desirable to have several eS,
aminations made month apart. Such
examinations cannot be made through
t:le clothing nor can they be carried
out in two or three minutes. If the
lungs are found to be free from tuber
culosis every effort should be made to1
keep them so. This can be done by
right living. good food and plenty OF
fresh air

CLASSES FOR FoREGN-BORN
SOLDIERS AT L. $. ARNIY CAMP

An interesting practical ex- pertinent in Americanization has recently been carried out in the Engineers Training camp at camp Humphreys, Virginia. The man whc conceived the idea behind the eX- pertinent was a private soldier of Italian birth, salvatore Cudia by name, On his own initiative Private Cudia built up a system of educa- ten among the thousands Of Ital- ians at Camp Humphreys which has heen iu operation since early sum mer,
 Several years of experience in tho newspaper and theatrical worlG had brought Private Cudia into close contact with many individuals and he knew especially the psychol- ogy of the foreign born. Realiz- ing hat the Oest way to attract his men was through giving entertain men. he began by assembling and training 8 small orchestra, the cost oi which was defrayed out Of his own earnings as reigmentaI tailor. The first musical program which he offered to the men was one cal eulated to attract them and the Italian born soldiers at Camp Hum 2hreys gathered in full force.
 (An Experience Meeting)
 After the musical program Private Curia offered to assist any in the the audience ill solving the every u. problems which beset priVates 1 The army. Knowing the sort of sbor les De was 10 hear, Cudia had primeG himself with answers. One private at once arose and com p.ained ot the way in which he believed the government % was treating him. He had q wife and children in Italy; for some reason they had received. 10 money from they American Government; for svme reason the alIOtmeRts had no been received. The poor sO.dier. whose understanding of the siruatiU was anything but clear, thought he was being cheated out ot his pay, He even even confessed that he felt 10 particular loyalty toward a country not his own, country which he intended to leave as soon as ne could, country in whose ar my he was serving really against his will.
 T-s frank statement Of this fel- lows case aroused the keenest in terest among the italian born Sol diers present and Curia was called upOA to square the matter. Having investigated similar case in the past Cudia was ready with an ans wer. He immediately sprang to his feet and asked the men whether they knew English. Many Of them admitted that they did not. He then told them that many Of the draft boards and camp officials simply could not learn their names and that because many European bcrn people who had come to Ameri Ca to earn livelihood had not been willing to learn the English language they had involved them selves in a great deal of trouble.
