Y M. C.. A. NOTES.

The meeting last Sunday at the Army
Y. M. G. A., conducted by the young
men, was success. Mr.. Graham Stew
ard, secretary Of the Central 7 M. z.
A., was the speaker for the afternoon.
The meeting was one full Of interest to
all present, especially so because it had
to do with the future work of permanent
". M. C. a. for colored young men and
bows in this city. Mr.. Steward spoke
very frankly on the subject and led us
to believe that in the near future we
might look forward to something def
mite.
The good people of this city can help
to bring this to pass sooner than you
think for by helping those who are
working. We are anxious to get the
ages of men and boys from twelve 10

There are few indeed who escape hav-
ing at least one cold during the winter
months, and they are fortunate who
have but one and get through with It
quickly and without any serious conse-
quences. Take Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and observe the directions with
each bottle, and you are likely to be one
Of the fortunate ones. The worth and
merit Of this remedy has been fully
proven. There are many families who
have always used it for years when
troubled with cough or cold, and with
the very best results.

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-
canoe, as 1t demonstrates the hearty
cooperation accorded the Food Ad-
ministration by the meat producers OF
the country.
According to reports Of the o. s.
Department of Agriculture, there was
an Increase in cattle of 1925, 600 head
and 12,441,O00 hogs, these figures COM
piled to January last. In the same
period there was 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,0OO,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 30,
1917, amounted to 9O3,172,OOO pounds,
while for the same months Of 1918 the
production was 1877, $4,000 pounds,
an increase Of over 374,OOO,OOO pounds
for the quarter.
During the same period In 1917 In
spected slaughter records OF dressed
beef showed 1908, 100000 pounds as
against 1,454,OOO,OOO pounds for the
three month period ending September
!, 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
it has brought about will enable Aus
even partly to satisfy the increased
demands on us for the coming year.
There will be world shortage in fats,
and 1t 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
will. be able to maintain a
supply that will keep all available
freezer vessels operating at capacity.

women and children also constitute a

In comparing the man power OF
Germany with that of the United

a much larger proportion of the man

Germany than in America. 1t is said
that in peace times the women conf

THE WAR, THE FARM
AND THE FARMER
BY Herbert Quick
Member Federal Farm Loan Beard

The farms OF this country could
carry the war to 4 victorious con-
clusion even IL all the rest Of the ma
tons should quit. Hhe rest will not
quit: but we could win 1t without
them 1t we had to do 1t. The farmers
Of the United States can whip Ger
many. We can whip them with guns.
We can whip them with our products.
We can whip them with our money.
Every farmer in the United States
must remember that the war has a
irst mortgage on every cent he has.
The last spare cent In the pockets Of
every farmer in America should be
devoted to the war.
The Kaiser began foreclosing his
mortgage on our farms when he de-
clared ruthless submarine warfare.
The war is our answer to his bill Of
foreclosure.
Our contribution is. first, our sons
and brothers for the trenches: Sec
ond. the last pound OF food products
which we can grow by mobilizing our
scanty labor supply. utilizing the men,
women and children and the towns
